I think if it stays dry tomorrow Bottas will fly through with the speed the Mercedes has.

Anyone know why DRS was not activated?
It was always wet. They never (or at least very rarely) activate DRS whilst everyone is on inters.

DRS was used in Turkey last year in far worse conditions.

No further action

Supposedly Alonso did lift off near the double yellow & picked speed only once he passed green flags again. Don't know why they've summoned him though.

The precedent set when it happened to Vettel in Bahrain was you abort the lap.

We need to see what the Stewards say.

Alonso under investigation for a yellow flag infringement
It's double yellow which is more serious. If he pulled out of his lap then he's safe but his last run he improved so it could be bad news?

Precedent was set with Vettel in Bahrain.

He will likely get a 5 place grid penalty.

Weird traffic woes. Never seen something like this......

This was so bad yet there has been no talk about.

This SHOULD NOT happen.

I've not been able to watch practice. Is Red Bull really on the back foot or do the times paint a false picture?

Hamilton's pace looked super strong.

Clarky

I don't understand why Norris should get away with that given Tsunoda got 2 penalties for crossing the line in pit entry twice in a race earlier this year. Both were 5 second penalties. Even Hamilton got a 5 second penalty in in germany 2019 when I think it was the team giving a very confused the m...

Clarky

So, no penalty for Norris for crossing the pit line twice! Just a slap on the wrist. The first one I would have let go as it was more a consequence of the weather, but to come back into the pits had to be a penalty surely. More inconsistency in the penalties. Let’s be honest Norris did the right th...

Did anyone see the live timing of lewis and sergios laps after lewis was released when danny ric pitted? On sky text updates it suggested sergio basically kept up with lewis and stayed c.1.4 seconds behind. But then ive seen some forum posts suggesting he got dropped pretty quickly - which justifie...

Clarky

I could be miss remembering but didn't the stewards decide not to penalise either driver? If so then I suggest you direct your grievances and accusations towards them rather than myself. I am trying to be as unbiased as possible by sticking to the opinion of the people who actually do enforce the r...

Hamilton has taken out Red Bull's more often than Verstappen has taken out Mercedes. This isn't just a Verstappen/Horner issue. In the last two actual races Verstappen AND Hamilton have both been guilty of causing a potentially dangerous crash. What arbitrary period of time are you using to determi...

Clarky

Chuffed for the guy.

Clarky

Yes an evasive move, but then he sees red and just goes for it. He was entitled to the space at that point. He had good reason to think he would be given it, although I have already agreed he should have bailed at that point to avoid Lewis' over-aggressive defending. Not according to the stewards. ...

Clarky

Max opened the steering briefly as Lewis came across on him and still had his inside wheel on, not even over, the sausage kerb. If Lewis running wide out of T1 was OK, then Max's exit from T2 would be too. And if he was going into the gravel, the smartest thing for Lewis to do would be to let him g...

Clarky

I don't mean generally I'm talking about this particular situation. There is not a chance in hell Verstappen can make T2 with his trajectory without running wide to the right hand apex on the exit. Hamilton could have given another cars width and they still would have crashed. Max opened the steeri...

Wait, so Max coming around the outside with barely a car's width from Lewis deserves a penalty for Max, but Lewis trying to banzai around the outside of Max and being given barely a car's width deserves a penalty for... Max as well? Max just can't win with you can he. Lap 1 Turn 4 incident Hamilton...

Clarky

That was because of overspeed, the wasn't alongside early enough to be granted the space.

Clarky

Verstappen's racing attitude is scary and at times dangerous.

He come across like a spoilt Br4t.

Hardly surprising when you see how the Red Bull management act.

Clarky

If you watch what happened before the corner, Lewis came down the straight and rejoined in front of Max. He then pushed Max wide. Max then went off track and I think this was where he thought F him I'm gonna take back the position. Max had a duty to yield but racing got the better of him, then agai...

Clarky

Exactly the way I saw the incident, braking late to seem you are along side and expecting a cars width should be removed from the rules. Should have gotten a penalty for the earlier move on Hamilton as it was the same. Wait, so Max coming around the outside with barely a car's width from Lewis dese...

Both pit crews.
According to Ted Kravitz, the slow stop was because one of the Red Bull mechanics forgot to press the ok button. Oh dear...

Their not used to doing it by themselves.

Clarky

So it's unofficially confirmed sometime during this season both Lewis & Max will be taking engine penalties. This adds such an intriguing factor to the championship fight. There's still a chance either of them may take the engine penalty out here in Monza. https://www.gpblog.com/en/news/93652/hamil...

Max's DRS wonkiness.
Thanks for posting this; I didn't notice the problem on his final lap live.

My son pointed he didnt open his DRS straight away.

It was just final pit straight where he had the issue, the rest of the lap was ok.

Max also did not open DRS on his final run and lost a couple of tenths, nearly cost him pole in the end. The race runs Max look a long way ahead, maybe Mercedes have something up there sleeve though

Max had DRS at the start and the middle just not fully at the end.

Clarky

Interesting session. Mercedes sandbagging until q3. Max didn’t open his drs out of the last corner. What happened there? He almost lost pole. Ricciardo outperformed Norris for the first time on merit. Good job Gio Leclerc and Sainz continue to be so close. Ocon edges out Alonso. Should be a process...

Advantage max, he will have at least one full practise session more than lewis to perfect setup. Now....wheres that second merc driver that can step up...oh wait

Not if the red flags keep coming.

Clarky

Super quick circuit but overtaking looks minimal so its all on Qualifying.

The race could be dull but fingers crossed.
