Making this early as I doubt I’ll be able to watch live this weekend. I need to take the little one to a kids birthday party 😬.

Anyway, post away your thoughts from the qualifying session in the future!

    I don’t wish harm on Max, but if he could bin it tomorrow and McLaren finish 1/2 I would be so happy.

      I believe both Piastri and Sargeant have the upgrades.

    McLaren should design a new livery for every track. That’s the secret sauce that’s really powering the car.

    Yo. I actually screamed when Lando crossed that line in Q3 and Piastri too. Super happy for Albon as well!

    Looks like the McLaren upgrades might be the real deal, at least in these conditions. Still a way off Red Bull, but great to see some progress.

    Disappointed with Alonso. Looks like other teams have caught up and overtaken their early season advantage, which is a shame. Losing out to, an admittedly racey looking, Williams won’t go down well.

    Hoping for some changeable conditions tomorrow.

      Yeah I thought he’d have a better qualifying after his FP3.

      I wouldn’t be surprised if Aston have already turned their eyes to next season since its always been their stated goal to challenge for wins in 2024. Their competitiveness this season was sort of unexpected

      Let’s hope they’re the real deal! I’m almost scared to watch the race now in case they both go backwards through the field and the ‘normal order’ is restored.

    ALB is kicking ass in that Williams. And PER down in the dumps again. Seat exchange incoming?

      Idk. Checo is still 2nd in the WDC. If Checo was somewhere around like 10th in the WDC, I could possibly see it. Alonso in 3rd isn’t far behind Perez, but AM seems to be in a slump of sorts at the moment. And Perez still managed a great result last week.

      Even in the Constructors, RB is in no danger. RB has over double the points than 2nd place Mercedes.

      Not sure if it’s worth RB rocking the boat at the moment.

    My heart skipped a beat there when Lando was first. Excellent result either way and such a difference from the start of the year for McLaren

      I literally gasped out loud and yelled out “OMG!” when that happened, not realizing Lando was one of the first over the line. But then the motorsports gods (aka Max himself) made sure RB got that P1.

      I loved Lando’s cheeky, “Max ruins for everything for everyone,” in response to the interviewer mentioning Lando almost getting P1. I don’t understand how people don’t like Lando; I think he’s hilarious. Obviously him and Max are good friends, too.

      Excellent day for McLaren!
