F1 2021 Round 12: Belgian Grand Prix

max gets pole after pipping Russell.

Russell!!!!!!!

How can Merc not put Russell in for Bottas next season

Absolutely brilliant by George

Take a bow George. What an epic finish.

Damn you Max, could you not of just qualified 2nd

Unbelievable from Russell

Bottas P13 tomorrow.

I think they want to avoid another Rosberg V Hamilton season, where the 2 of them are constantly taking points away from each other. This will be much more costly now than back in 2016, as Red Bull are competitive, and the rest of the grid is much closer.

If Mercedes don't take him, he must be in the sights of a few other teams. Russell and Lando at McLaren would be great to see.

If it is a wet race, could we see Russell on the podium? They seem to have one-lap pace anyway, and being out near the front the visibility will have a big impact. I just hope he has a battle with Hamilton, rather than letting him past.

I'd say it has been settled behind closed doors and long time ago. Just because they haven't announced it publicly, doesn't mean it's not in hand.

Think the Russel thing is a done deal, but they're trying to tie up the Bottas to Alfa move before announcing anything. I think it was Joe Saward had that on Twitter last week.

Stupid question from Webber tbh, would say that's the last thing on Russel's mind

I left for half an hour to do some chores during the Q3 red flag. My timing was worse than Red Bull's during the Hungarian quali session.
