It's ok.
It's looking very good so far in Q1. Without any incidents they should be on for a podium tomorrow. Obviously the Renault engine is clearly no match for Ferrari or Merc. After 4 straight world titles, Renault continues to be horrendous
Should be a good race Sunday. Top six very close. Let’s see how long the “Love Fest” between Hamilton and Bottas lasts.

Alonso is like Michael was in wet conditions. Ferrari power will be a factor with the extra downforce settings. Will be a negative for Toto.
Right, a full Merc front row. No idea what the grid lineup is otherwise lol, I’ll find out later. No idea who will win though.
It's looking sunny right now.
The dude from F1 needs to trim his eyebrows!
And, sadly imho, no amount of rain is going to help Alonso/Mclaren/Renault.
While I'm waiting. Watching some real racing with passing in the rain and the fog.
As we know, it’s the ‘drivers championship’, not team championship...
I like the new Ferrari wing mirrors.
I suspect a couple on the first three rows will go out on turn one, as seems the tradition on this track..
[doublepost=1526216108][/doublepost]Have to also say it’s interesting to see how the wind is playing a BIG part in the cars stability. Well that’s what you get for absolute cutting edge aerodynamics I guess? Don’t remember it being like this before?
Here we go! Let's hope for some turn 1 mayhem. I can't remember the last time I cheered for Alonso but would be cool to see Hamilton and Vettel crash on lap 1 and the Spaniard winning at home.. somehow.
Edit: well we got some action!! Safety car but the front runners seem okay.
I would give Magnussen the rest of the season to be more of a team player and be more consistent. Can't believe Grosjean has lasted this long, doesn't belong in F1
No idea but they had already changed his engine this week, didn’t help I’m guessing. He also went it at this race last year due to a mechanical failure.
Congrats to Mercedes. Nailed the tire situation cold.
Great race to Haas P6, McLaren P8, and FORCE INDIA P9
Can Ferrari respond?

He did drive very well at the end given another lack of intelligence forced error. I’m sure he had to take care of that left front. Luckily for him Ferrari was in the tank today.

Actually it was the Williams fault, no idea what they were thinking! Great driving by Max. Held of Seb excellently.
Boring win for Lewis.
Just saying though, this is the track Mercedes complained to Perelli about claiming the tyres on ‘their’ cars performed poorly, Perelli change the tyres for everyone as a result, and they all lack grip yet Lewis and Botas easily win...... hmmm.....
