    I can’t wait to see Charles fighting for the championship against Max, that if Ferrari have their **** together next year. I hope it happens, two of the most talented drivers on the grid. I personally think Charles probably the best qualifier. He took a mediocre car this year and got two poles

    i think those are your top two guys for the future. Carlos is right there and I’d expect to see a Norris continue to rise. But in equal machinery, it’s Max and Charles, imo (as I have maintained for the past couple of years)

    I am going to go out on a limb here. Watching Max' post-quali interview leaves me thinking he is going to be an absolute force tomorrow.

    We can't count Perez and Bottas. They have alot of ups and downs.

    Max's RB was clearly faster than Hamilton's Mercedes.

    It will be a close race tomorrow. Max still has a chance to win the GP.

    The operative phrase being "FOR THE FUTURE." As it stands TODAY, Hamilton ain’t exactly chopped liver quite yet . . .

    Lewis really had to invent this statement!
    That makes absolutely no sense.
    Probably too much adrenaline..

    Pole does not guarantee a win. This will come down to safety car luck and strategy, not car pace.

    Leclerc 25.6 seconds faster than Sainz!! :eek:

    LOL

    Don’t understand how Carlos lost so much rear grip and confidence from Q1 to Q2. He could have been maybe 6th or something.

    One thing is certain.
    This car is unpredictable and the best compromise permitted by the COVID situation.
    Bring on 2022!

    I think the rear wing was basically taped on after he kissed the barrier in Q2. That had to have impacted both the car and his confidence.

    As to the initial incident, my best guess is tires weren't fully "switched on" and he asked a little too much of them.

    That goes without saying. By any objective measure, Hamilton is an all-timer. I think the ability to stay on point in this battle when his margin for errors are so small speaks volumes (e.g., Brazil, where impatience would have ended in tears). Win or lose, he’s shown the steadiness or a champion.

    I AM speaking about the post-Hamilton era….

    I’m certain he’s referring to the relationship he’s had with Valtierri. I can’t imagine he was on as good of terms with FA, JB or NR

    So Hamilton has no penalty for double yellow apparently.
    Will Max’s car be ready for tomorrow ?
    He has been a force on starts such as Mexico so I’m kind seeing win tom but who knows.
    Safety car and small mistakes will be the difference

    Yup, no penalty for HAM for the yellows—whatever the story was, whether accidentally turned on or whatever; unlike Max who got penalized regardless last race—no penalty for impeding Mazepin and no investigation into Bottas contact with Kimi as he toured around in Q2. Business as usual for stewards and Mercedes.

    If Max needs a gearbox change he will not be in good shape for the race, I fear. Already starting third he risks getting bogged down by Bottas.

    If Max does start eight, Leclerc will go third so may make for a fun start and maybe race.
