Max to retire with a car issue. Lewis win.. I'm just throwing it out there

M44

I think Martin Brundle has just said on Sky that this weekend will be data gathering for the new technical directive rather than being enforced. That’s how I interpreted anyway. Anyone else see it? Also, Hamilton running a new floor in FP1. Probably running with this: https://i.imgur.com/k3f6tbd.pn...

Mercedes with 2 protests. No official confirmation.

M44

What an engineered championship by the FIA.

M44

Mercedes strategy team is dire.

M44

Gonna be a tense final 10 laps.

M44

Lewis tyres will be 44 laps old at the end..

M44

Put Lewis on mediums lap 42.

M44

Merc just dropped the championship right there..

M44

How are they not putting Lewis..

Its pathetic from Red Bull..

Too bad Bottas is useless as usual

Even if Bottas was in play - I wouldn't want him to intentionally drive through corners slow and block apexs for Lewis.

Its pathetic from Red Bull..

M44

There you go. Horner confirms Red Bull have gone lower down force to compete.

Tomorrow will be interesting. Killer lap from Max. Thing was on rails.

Mercedes have dialled out single lap performance for race pace. Red Bull have compromised.

I reckon
I wonder..

That or Red Bull had the heavier sandbags.

What a start that was from Lewis.

M44

Nasty crash off for grid in F2!

M44

I wonder if that's a defining moment of this championship.

M44

I think Mercedes have finally understood the package and can get the car in the sweet spot now. Lewis certainly seems to be on fire - he turned up at Brazil a different animal, and seems to get the car where he wants it now.. I dont see them having an issue with Jeddah. I do think Abu Dhabi will be ...

M44

The pace is nuts!

M44

Wow.. Lewis had some mad speed.

M44

Out of interest - what would of happened if Lewis had pitted and they were all in the pits for the restart? Would they have gone green from the pitlane?

M44

Hamilton masterclass incoming one feels!

M44

The fight for the win will be decided after the first corner (barring reliability concerns). If Lewis is in P1 by Turn 2 I fear the battle for the lead will be processional - and a comfortable 1/2 for Merc.

Behind could be and is hopefully tasty. Is rain forecast?

Absolutely crazy.

Adam Cooper reporting that the two-seater is going around the track and personnel are there to let fans in within the next hour.

What on earth?

M44

Seems crazy that all media outlets are carrying this cancellation and yet nothing from the FIA or Liberty/F1? Seen nothing from the drivers or teams yet either. Seems to be radio silence. Even journalists at the Prix are unsure? Just posted on the other thread that part of me wonders if some (Liber...

Interested to see whether Mercedes use the DAS here and the potential fallout from Red Bull issuing a protest to its legality. They are convinced it's not legal - so it will be interesting, particularly if they wait till post-race to protest. I dont think Mercedes will be dominant, I think it will b...

What to make of this? :O

M44

Something I had noticed myself - and Sky have just mentioned also - Mercedes have not been using the DAS this week.

M44

Mercedes say it was an oil pressure related issue which shut down the engine as a precautionary measure.. todays testing over.

Lots of oil related issues.

M44

Certainly just teething issues or perhaps installation problems.. I think Mercedes had an issue last Thursday or Friday? Seems to be nothing major, bar whatever happened in the Williams last week.

Seems to be a few issues.

M44

Multiple drivers spinning on 1st day of 2nd test. There were quite a few offs today as well. Apparently it was too cold for tyres. Also little surprised by lack of enthusiasm amongst F1 fans about this whole testing. This year I am seeing considerably less interaction even on social media. Last yea...

Ye this.. I think Red Bull will be competitive.

The red is a nice touch.. Is the black'ed out rear section a test livery? I prefer it to be honest.

M44

Disappointed it's not the fully black render that's been doing the rounds.
