    I think for sure the race will be more interesting while Max is not front of everyone. Hopefully Leclerc can lead (or follow).

    RB probably going to fit a hammock to his car so he has something to do during the race.

    Reminds me of when Vettel's car was so dominant, the commentator said they installed a Playstation in his car to give him something to do.

    I’m pretty sure Max is going to win this. Hopefully the red cars are up there and don’t suffer from reliability issues again.

    Well
    In pure race speed there will be no match between both Red Bulls and the field.
    Seems like as fast is the RB19, his Achilles heel will be reliability because Newey tend to push boundaries sometimes too far..
    To be honest I believe we will run this race and the others with a detuned engine again ..
    Vasseur doesn’t say everything about our problem, this is obvious.

    If no issues Max will get a podium I'm sure. It's a street track after all so overtaking is not as easy. After that it kinda depends how far ahead Perez can get by the time Max gets into the top 5 to see if a win is possible.

    Russell the Wrecking Ball. Expect one or two Safety Car periods.

    Max on 15 is a wiff of reversed grid, of course I love it.

    However it's quite possible that he gets into trouble in the midpack. Streetrace also doesn't help for overtaking, so not sure he comes up on top. In fact a DNF would be helpful to keep the WDC more entertaining.

    Hoping for an Alonso win, but not holding my breath either.

    It will get very spicy if Alonso can get in front frustrating Perez's getaway, it should allow Sainz and Russell to attack Perez while Leclerc and Verst make their way through the field.

    You can still pass, it's not Monaco either.

    So, red-yellow 1-stop is not an option, looks like. Might be for RB perhaps.

    How many at the front will start on the (M) and risk losing out at the start?

    True, but lack of run off makes any move inherently riskier ;) I'm certainly not expecting max to lead by lap 15 or whatever.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if he did, ha-ha. Or by lap 20 maybe ;-) He’ll be flying by everyone as soon as DRS activated.

    Don’t forget “Bowling Ball” Stroll is starting dangerously close to the leaders, LOL.
