Bloody Ricciardo.
If he’s have done that more often he wouldn’t be facing retirement

He’s good at stop/start corners. Just seems to lose it in med-high speed, having to lean on and trust the car, and driving it on the edge. That’s where he’s been losing chunks of time to NOR over the last couple of seasons

If only he left himself another 100 yards or so more behind the FER. He was extremely close going into turn 1 and first sector. Good job though. It’s the traction from the chicane that seems to cost them most of the time, coupled with the Lesmos

Norris starts 3rd, Ricciardo 4th. Well well... :wtf: :lol:

Edit: Max has a 5 place penalty I believe, so he'd maybe start ahead of Daniel. Depends on the order they are applied, iv no idea what it should be.

If nothing crazy happens in the race we could take some points out of Alpine this weekend with Ocon starting way back. Did not expect this good of a start to the weekend here in Monza. The car certainly isn't suited to this sort of track this year.

As another poster pointed out, this car really is bipolar, with signs of multiple personality Syndrom
