Actually that's our only chance to get a good normal race.

Wet race likely.

I'd put my money on Verstappen.

I hope Ferrari does not mess up (again) and maximizes points and podium.

Maybe crazy race and good mix through the circumstances.

If I saw correctly, Albon crashed over an animal.

Ruth said critters affected more races than safety cars, she's not wrong

How hard can it be to marmot proof the circuit? This is a very dangerous situation, maybe some fencing?

I am shocked (even if I knew what to expect) that Sky commentary team aren't able to distinguish b/w the long runs being done by Mercedes and the quali runs done by the others, even though the laptimes are near each other. It looks like a giant step by the Mercedes team and this commentary team is unable to 'spot the difference' and are actually comparing how faster/slower the Mercedes is to other cars. Pathetic.

it happened in Miami (or China) iirc? Its a new procedure for sprint weekend since red flag has big impact when there is only one practice session.

ah okay, I hadn't noticed - I usually only skip through those middle of the night sessions, so it may have very well been China.

It's actually something I didn't think about. With the low fuel factor on this track, 8 MJ runs at Sprint fuel won't be too much much slower than 6 MJ low fuel runs indeed.
