Almost a second away in one lap pace, for their sake i hope they've set up for the race over quali
George's lap was on used tyres, so a bit closer in reality.

alonso was only 1 tenth after S2... did he make a mistake in the final corners or he reached the limit of his car?
He was typically slow in S3, but this was more than i expected.
‘typical slow’, oh my oh my :lol: =D>

Am has no straight line speed. Hence why they’re so slow in s3

I've known him for ages, very dislikeable person, his dad too.
ticktum or ferrucci levels of bad?
hard to say, wasn't exactly a clean driver, could be fast over one lap but often raced badly. put it this way, at least 10 drivers where better than him in england.
well those 2 were exceptionally terrible attitude and conductwise. they both used their cars to ram other drivers because they got offended and they have a terrible egotistical persona. lets hope bearman doesnt venture too far into the swamp.

i do have a feeling that tomorrow he will drop back behind the mercs unless somehow they found something overnight to help with race pace.

Listening to his interview on sky, Bearman seems to be a fine kid, not letting some personal grievances here cloud judgements.

on the final lap in Q3? did Lewis also use new or old?

Yeah hte long runs didn’t look good for them. Maybe he can make it hard for the mclarens to get by and use them as a shield but judging from last week that is far fetched.

He aborted his final lap due to a snap in S1, so his time was from the first run on used softs. LH's time was on new tyres.

George bailed out on his final run in Q3, which was on new tyres. He must've made a mistake or was blocked in Sector 1. His time was set on his previous lap earlier in the session, on used tyres.

Lewis finished his final run on the new set.

New track record
On a slower track than 21-22 even, quite impressive. Some cars were silly fast trough 7-8-9-10 section, faster than VER in 21.

Yeah track is I think at least 5 tenths slower than 21 and 22 because turn 22 is much tighter
