I will not be watching the sprint at that time.
Just sitting watching the 2007 Chinese GP. Such a classic. Spoiler: Hamilton in his rookie year with a rookie mistake. So memorable.
Yes was a great season and a good race that year.
Just the Tyre data.
Red Bull 1-2
Ferrari 3-4
McClaren might struggle for top speed on them two long straights.
Think there is Rain forecast for Sunday so might mix things up a little
Heavy rain at circuit today. Its to be wet the next few days there at least
Doesnt mean much, but Stroll fastest in FP1, then Piastri, Verstappen, Perez, Hulk.
Slowest was Gasly, Alonso, Hamilton, Russell, Norris.
Sprint qualifying starting in about 80 minutes from now.
Another fire in the grass. That's a weird one. Not very hot, no fans launching flares. Light rain even.
Sparks from the cars I’m reading? Results from Q1 - painful reading again for Alpine fans
They’ll have to sort out that grass fires before the next session. Rain in 14 minutes it said yet the pictures show spots of rain.
how is this a good idea to be sitting in the pit lane with tyres temps dropping ?
Good to have Rosberg back this weekend.
Russell is out in sprint Q2.
The red helmet on Russell looks a Schumacher to me.
Yep, wet track usually good for some surprises.
The grimness continues. #pray4jordan199
Jesus this is going to be interesting!
Sliding all over the place. 😁
Feck no Max on pole this time with that off track.
Hamilton gets pole in the sprint. Unreal session.
Ok that was bananas! Hamilton on pole then Norris, then Norris lap deleted then reinstated. Norris on pole, Hamilton second, Alonso then Max. 😁
And Norris time reinstated and has Pole.
I was wrong. Nuts.
The word provisional might be very true after that session. We think Lando is P1 for the sprint.
That was a great session.
Still expect Max to win sprint easily enough if it stays dry. The Red Bull will breeze by the other 3 in the long straight with DRS
What a session. That's was brilliant.
Nice to see Zhoe doing good too at his first ever home race.
Wow, wow, wow.
I just watched the sprint quali on my lunch. I was on my way here to give out about Rosberg being on coverage, not a fan at all.
Rain always spices things up nicely.
It Sure does.
Morning lads. It’s dry in Shanghai which means it’s an even playing field.
