    Correct, even though Leclerc is in Q3 he cannot take part. He will start 10th, assuming no grid penalties for changing something like a gearbox or chassis

    Edit: for reference Article 33.2 of the sporting regulations

    Murray Walker had his incredible amount of misidendifications and mistakes (not to mention times where simple chances made him wrong, like mentioning how difficult is to overtake and the camera showing a couple of overtakes 3 seconds later :D ), but he was clearly competent and most importantly, he didn't sound like a pompous arsehole.

    It’s what was known as a Murrayism, I think David ‘it’s lights out and away we go’ Croft is hoping for a similar title of ‘Croftyism’ over my dead body will I ever think of Croft as being a good commentator, Walker was on another planet next to that clown.

    Mercedes: "Ferrari are faster than us, honest"

    Yeah, I'm going to go ahead and say that's not accurate.

    Le Clerc would have been there though, so it’s hard to say. Ferrari still have things on paper, but they keep handing the advantage to Merc in reality...so we don’t fully know the relative differences between them

    Superb lap by Bottas, though the Merc’s looked to be scrapping just before their timed lap. Lewis will prob feel he was compromised by that

    And another Merc 1-2. And another Ferrari nightmare. Some things never change.

    Perez P5, now all I need is Bottas, Hamilton, Vettel and Verstappen to crash into each other at turn 1 tomorrow and let the champagne flow.

    Ferrari were better in practice because Mercedes keep their best for when it matters, Q3! Bottas and Hamilton both upped their performance.

    The delays allowed the temps to drop significantly too, which hurt Ferrari. Arguably Le Clerc might have extracted more than Vettel did too, so once again Ferrari were unlucky and error prone.

    That was entertaining , Good from Bottas.
    Good from Dani K on his birthday . I think its a good mix for tomorrow . Plenty of over takes with Gasly and Charles L start positions .

    Waiting on Channel 4 highlights, but it sounds as if Ferrari tripped over Mercedes-Benz sandbags again.

    How much further can the Mercs turn up their engines in Q3 compared to the rest, similar pattern week in week out.

    Williams believe they can get Kubica's car "fixed" in time for the race.
