    I would like a Ferrari win .
    Preferably a 1-2

    Lewis to win .
    Vasseur and the racing team deserve it .
    I want a Williams third .

    WDC wise , ultimately I want to see Oscar as champion .


    None of the above is likely to happen , including Oscar to be WDC , but that’s what I want to happen .

    Lando could easily fluff the start, but he seems very focussed and quick this weekend.

    Lots of people saying pole is not always the best place to start at this circuit .

    Yep, Lewis in 3rd, plus Max in 5th very much in play at the start.

    Can’t remember from last year, but suspect you can overtake on that straight though. He’d probably get it back (or on undercut).

    Pick the bones out of that. Thought Charles was slightly fortunate to keep his place over Lewis, but I think Lewis might be in bother for that last incident.

    10 seconds for Lewis. Feel for him a bit really as he probably should have been ahead of CLC prior to that.

    Since when is leaving the track a 10 second penalty? **** off stewards.

    So leaving the track and gaining an advantage has the same penalty as causing a collision? Stewards are a joke.

    10 is harsh. Would have thought five.

    Sounds like it’s not for leaving track, it’s for not following the pre-race guidance instructions on how to rejoin the track if you go off there

    So did Max avoid a penalty for sliding up into Lewis at the point when Lewis then got a penalty?

    Right, ok.
