    Is Norris down to the back with a new gearbox?

    Likely a new chassis so pit lane start for him

    Awe don't say that.

    So the points between Lewis and Max would stay the same.

    Max has had enough bad luck. I want to see him win it even if it means the race at the front will be boring so be it.

    That was the best most exciting session of F1 quali ever. Who would have ever of thought George Russel in the Williams would be up on the front row.

    Also way to go Vettel. He really is a great driver checking on Lando.

    I doubt that is something many of us thought we would see in F1 in this day and age. I certainly did not.

    Live long and Prosper

    Peace and long life.

    I can't quite put my finger on it, but I've such a bad feeling about this race, like something is going to go wrong. Hope I'm wrong obviously, but it's weird

    Yeah the constant changing conditions is making me wary as well.

    F3 was wet but reasonably incident free.

    If there is a safety car start I'd expect it to be a rolling rather than standing racing start.

    The team boss came across really well in that interview and it sounds like they got everything right, I wonder is this form going to continue or did the conditions just level the field a bit this time? I'd love to see George get a podium but I feel it's unlikely.

    Watched the start of the porches supercup. Was wet. Few incidents round the track including opening lap going through eau rouge car spun out. Nobody was hit thankfully.

    What would be best for Russell's future career today?

    Finish the race or play the Bottas role this week?

    If the later happens, and you were Red Bull, what would you do?

    The Porsche Supercup Crash was "people who shouldn't have a szuperlicense material"

    F1 show, still shows rainy. Race is wide open

    Most important thing for Russell is that he puts in a solid race today. Doesn't have to finish on the podium but a points finish with some good racecraft.

    Depends if Toto values this season more than the future I guess, whether that is most important or not.

    I don't really think a poduim is a realistic goal for them. The Williams has been better in quali than races all season. I think Russell will be doing a brilliant race if he finishes in the points at all. When you factor in the other factors like tyre wear, the Williams will probably fall back and be swallowed up by the field.

    I'd love to see him do something amazing with the help of a fluke, but a great race could be a modest points finish.

    Can’t see anything but a safety car start. Few laps see can clear some of the water

    The way the spray is kicking up, will be starting behind the safety car for sure. Question is how many laps will they do behind the safety car before they go racing

    And then a rolling rather than grid start.

    I'm the same. Maybe what happened is reminding of other incidents and that circuit and the rain or what but I was thinking about it last night. I’d be very happy to have a boring uneventful race today.

    He’s on the grid doing a grid walk so yes he’s there.
