Anything wrong? I strongly believed RB will be protesting.

Whatever please u mate... keep your high horse for yourself.

Everyone is sand bagging after Barcelona I guess... make the poker game more fun at the first race. I'm expecting the sidepod-less to be super fast because Lewis is said to be lifting off in Sector3.

Astro still have F1 races... never seen testing though. Anyway, testing is nothing fun to see anyway. Been to one in Sepang many years ago (last year for v10 iirc). Cars dont come out often and even when they do, only do a couple of laps then go in again and sat for a good amount of time before coming out and do couple more laps.

Seems like Mercedes porpoising is much better now than last week.

Only managed to catch the last 15 minutes. It somehow feels like cornering speed is much slower than last year.

Russell car looks more balanced than Lewis. I think GR might have find a sweet spot for the car compared to Lewis.

Biggest surprise is Haas and Bottas.

McLaren struggling?

I think Renault is down on power... I'm more surprised by Mercedes powered cars results. Most are struggling.

FIA finally acknowledged Masi made an error but in good faith, what a joke.

Anyway, expecting Ferrari to edge out RB for pole but could be wrong. I think Mercedes looked pretty good in FP3 because they raised their ride height presumably. I'll be surprised if Mercedes managed front row.

Ferrari engine so powarful this year... I guess engine year than aero year.

McLaren faltering hard despite testing promises.

Is Haas really good car or Magnusen magic driving?

Charles pole... just like I predicted...

Ferrari is the one sand bagging

Too bad for RB they had Perez... lol

Too bad for GR...

I suspect he helped drag Lewis after he messed up his final lap after missing first corner.

Well, depends. It could be 2007 where both drivers competitive and finally deliver the title to their opponent.

Now just need to wait for race. I wonder if Mercedes zeropod will allowed them to out drag the rest.

Astro Go la...

From the looks of it, it does bring the cars closer, much like 200x days. Still remember MSC catching Alonso in Imola (iirc) but unable to overtake for the win. Hopefully DRS will help.
