Most important start of the year for MB.

Simply cannot let Perez split them.

Not sure who said it (some "pundit") but I agree with him, this weekend MB is closer to Verstappen than ever before. And MB has the edge on Ferrari and Perez.

Not going to pass Verstappen on speed alone, they will have to "work" the race together.

Gonna be different (why not worked well for me so far) Although I was thinking of the way Retro picked.

Verstappen
Hamilton
Perez
Sainz

(Russell does an oops somewhere to cost him)
BTW a shout out to Bottas to get up there with the big 3 during qualifying

Dammit, my first instinct was to go VER, HAM, PER, RUS but I thought that Russell was gonna get a better start.

Surprised at how awful the Ferraris have been. Absolute garbage.

Verstappen wins it, followed by Hamilton, Perez, and Russell. Russell just plain wussed-out today.

Pretty weird call not to pit him for softs on the VSC. I think he could have gained the podium.

Congratulations to ckhokie for Running the Table!! Forty_Three still hangs onto the lead over ckhokie. We have a tie at Third Place.

Next up, the Brazilian Grand Prix. There will be a Sprint Race in that Race. See everyone then!

And your point? He always does that. You say it like it's a bad thing.

My point, classy.
Nothing specific to Lewis positive or negative, just predictable.

I’ve always found him thoughtful and well spoken. Nothing wrong with that predictable or not. At least he’s not sulking like Max who has no reason at all to sulk.
