This is usually a One Stopper,

I expect Verstappen to win.

Charlie-Bravo

Whose engine breathes the best at higher altitude?

Should be a much more straight-forward race for Red Bull. If Checo wasn't in such bad form, and the McLarens and Hamilton in such good form, you'd expect an easy 1-2 for them. With it being his home race he might pull it out of the bag but I can't see any battle for the lead barring something unforeseen.

We better get that mariachi version of the theme song!

This is crap for the sport.

You new to sports? 😂 This type of crap happens practically every popular sport across the globe. Remember people are idiots 😆

I suppose what's crap is when it gets to the point where security is needed...

Exactly, another example from 6 years ago, but doesn't involve Redbull so few remember:

You'd imagine it's Helmut that needs the extra security rather than Max.

Jordan 199

He can always put a helmet on his head.

Helmuts Helmet.

Andrew76

Lol @Jordan 199! Never change man. 😂

So just a few hours until the first practice session of the weekend - not sure if I like sprint weekends anymore tbh, too messy. So it's nice to be back to a normal race and these evening time races are great too.

Frank Bullitt

Aston will be delighted it is not a sprint weekend, they need it to get on top of the new parts.

Andrew76

Bernie Collins back this weekend.

Alonso straight out of the garage with aero rakes on the rear of the car.

Hijpo

Albon getting the most out of the Williams this session

She’s been a great addition to the sky team, great knowledge, no bias and calls it as it is.

Itssoeasy

right let’s switch to F1.

ShamoBuc

Tsunoda helping out there. Tough on him getting the penalty when not even in the car.

The times are changing quickly.

ShamoBuc

That's a fine traffic jam in the pits.

Itssoeasy

What is that crap at the end of the pit lane ? Lads it’s a Grand Prix not a multi story car park.

Disaster for Norris.

ShamoBuc

Yellow flag is going to catch a few, Norris possibly.

Russell and Verstappen going to be investigated after the session.

ShamoBuc

Max and Russell, impeding, I wonder will they let it go, again.

Andrew76

Shocker for Norris. Max you silly boy blocking pit exit, he got away with it before but I’d be surprised if he doesn’t get a penalty for that. Needless. Same for Russell.

PsychoPete

Has to be a penalty for Verstappen and Russell, they can't get away with doing that again

ctrl-alt-delete

Russell noted again for Max delta time.

Fernando doesn't spin as good as Max.

Almost looked deliberate it was that amateurish of a mistake.

Hijpo

That williams looks very skittish, Albon looks like he's on stage 2 in corsica
