    Max Verstappen qualified fastest, but a gearbox change means he takes a five-place grid penalty and starts from P6.

    Kevin Magnussen has received a three-place grid penalty for impeding Charles Leclerc during qualifying.

    With all due respect to Magnussen, and I like the guy a lot, 3 place grid penalty is light as ****. The blocking Leclerc endured there was nothing short of shocking.

    How’s the weather forecast? I have to record the race so if there’s a serious rain delay* I guess I should plan on missing the end,

    *I’m in the Brundle camp on this. Drive to the conditions, ffs. If you can’t do that maybe you should be in a different sport.

    Pirelli agrees with drivers that F1 wet tyres are "useless" now
    Pirelli's Formula 1 boss agrees with driver complaints that the full-wet tyres are "useless" if used only for running behind a safety car now visibility concerns dictate when races begin.

    Actually they make a helmet attachment wiper. I’m sure the teams can come up with one that’s a couple million to make. Lol. I was trying to post a pic but it wouldn’t work for some reason

    The problem isn't with the visor but with the cars following being blinded by the spray. The Didier Pironi and Schumacher/Coulthard accidents come to mind.

    Small forward facing IR camera to sort this 'visibility' in rain thing. Add it. Heavier and safer......F1 lol :) Have the helmet display this in the visor. Too E-Z.
