So GP told max that it wasnt smart to take so much out of the tire in the out lap and max decided to show him by just going 7 tenth per lap quicker than perez? lol
He was bored lol
I say this every GP… Max is too fucking good
Aston Martin is making the exact same gamble that didn’t work in Monaco
Don’t remind me. That really is going to end up being Nando’s last genuine shot at a win, isn’t it?
And now Mercedes did it with Russell too!
Stroll, 4.3 seconds for soft’s…
Just bet his entire stack on red

I’m less optimistic than Sam is about the chances of rain. There is a small shower cell about 40km to the west right now, but the sun is heating up the air and I don’t think it’ll make it to the track because of it. Maybe a few drops around 15:45 local time, but low probability. The even smaller cell he sees to arrive at around 15:05 near the track is already fizzling out. So if there aren’t any humid air masses or intense vertical movement I have missed, this is most probably a dry race. There is some significant gusty wind though.
i love how formula 1 fans turn into meteorologists :D
If I only had better data :). The three weather stations around the track and Lüttich is what I’m working with. It seems that it was more cloudy than I expected and it hasn’t heated up enough. So now the humid air is rising up the mountain and the rain gaining intensity. With any luck we will see some raindrops arriving at 1540-1545.
Starting grid accounting for Max and Magnussen penalties

Poor hulk
This weekend just keeps getting worse for Haas doesn’t it.
Those glasses though…
I’ve never felt so uneasy about a common apparel. Then again, there really wasn’t anything “common” about those glasses. 😂
Ah yes the national anthem cape
“No capes!” — Edna Mode
That national anthem reminded me of a high school spirit week production. Not a bad thing! Just not what I was expecting.
It was amusing seeing Alonso trying not to laugh.
Here we go! I missed having a Belgian GP that started on time (and started at all).
Any bets on when Max ends up in P1?
Lap 5 or he crashes out in the start turmoil
Is this normally an undercut or an overcut circuit?
Bernard was waving his green flag with such enthusiasm! Great that Crofty remembered him, that was quite wholesome.
Perez cutting over and then going for the inside caused utter chaos behind him 🤣
