MODERATORS
My predictions for the race:
1.VER 2. RUS 3. HAM
Good performance: Piastri in the points
Bad performance: Stroll out of the points
Piastri is having a decent season, don't you think? He's limited by the McLaren being a bad car, but he's not a million miles from Norris in the same car. Hopefully people are noticing that and he can move on in a few years.
Yeah, there's clearly potential there.
He's avoided the constant errors that you often see from rookie or 2nd season drivers (Yuki, Mick Schu and de Vries being the recent examples). Think he's only had one (?) major crash this season which was in the wet in Canada.
From what we've seen in F1 so far he deserves a shot in a faster car one day.
I think we can all agree that Max is going to be P1 if there is no crash or technical failure. Sorry, but P2 and P3 seems a bit like through the lens of a Merc or UK fan.
Yeah, it was a bit bold. In the predictor that I do I went Ver, Per, Ham.
It was expected that Mercedes would be better this weekend due to the high speed nature of the track. I still think Russell will be around 3/4/5.
Where Perez finishes mainly depends on his qualifying. He can relax a bit and accept qualifying 2/3/4 or push like crazy for pole with the massive risk of being out in q2.
Would like to see the long run pace analysis.
The Mercs will struggle to get through Q2. They looked awful on every lap, both long and qualy runs.
