I really hope Norris doesn't have any damage to the car. I want to see how well that car performs tomorrow
Zak Brown said the damage doesn't seem too extensive
I'm sure he'll have a car for qualifying, the issue might be wether he'll have all the upgrades now.
Stella said they'll have spares for Norris I think

Softs lasted way longer than i expected
If someone wants to stop twice(no one will) they seem like an honest choice.

In the race Verstappen had the same problems as in SQ. Unlike in hungary last year this time issues didnt sort themselves out. It'll be interesting to see if they can fix it for quali given that he said car was fine in FP1.
If they dont sort it out I predict first win for NOR.

Wonder whether Mercedes will appeal the penalty. A DT for a pitlane speeding infraction is completely out of proportion.

Verstappen starts on used medium tires (3 laps). Leclerc next to him on front row with fresh rubber. Pérez also on used, behind him Ricciardo, Sainz and Piastri also on new set. #F1

That’s what I expected. He did only those 3 laps in SQ2 while the rest got 2 tries. So he now has an extra set yellows spared.

Whats the normal penalty for speeding in the pitlane?

Pretty sure it's 5 seconds during a race or a monetary penalty.

The penalty is harsh. The speeding was with all cars being diverted through the pitlane. The risk and danger is much less when no pitstops are taking place.
As for the Norris incident. Stroll and Alonso pretty much pinched each other in. Hamilton rightly cannot be blamed for that one.
Hamilton kept on the apex with a tiny lock up.
Alonso Navigating to avoid Stroll was the main cause of that crash. 4 cars into one corner carries this risk.

Either way Hamilton displaying his arsenal of race tactics to get by mad man Magnussen and then Tsunoda. Both stout defenders.
Should be fun in a Ferrari.

Mercedes car still has some good qualities despite it being a midfeild car now. They are behind Vcarb and Aston for sure.

Terrible driving from Kmag. Haas win more points with Hulk as a result of illegal driving from the teammate, after they did the same at Saudi
FIA should have a serious word with Haas to ensure this doesnt happen again, otherwise there should be heavy fine to the team. He is an idiot that doesnt belong on a race track.

5 sec is not enough to keep the 1 pt.

Monetary penalty was for unsafe release, 5s or 10s was speeding. But since they changed penalties for this season so I guess speeding is now 20s.

But why no penalty for that start by Hamilton?he really went gung ho. 3 guys out. I just saw the top view and it was really without regard for anyone.
