If I didn't heard wrong Ham I told he lost on straights to Redbull. It looks like Honda also released some horses for last race.
Mercedes always run detuned on FP3. I won't take that too seriously
Verstappen had an insane slipstream off of ferrari on the first back straight, that gained him loads of time. That's why everyone was losing out to him in S2. It's not representative unless they do it again in q3.

It's not qualifying yet so the PU modes aren't fixed. Expect them to move up in Q.

If Albon is that close they may actually have the pace to win.

That was unexpected!! Yesterday they were losing a lot, and now they are there with Merc! Also seems that Honda have released more power, being confident the PU will hold up! It's a bit optimistic, but maybe next year will be closer if Honda take a good step! =D> =D>

I stand corrected! Well done and Albon being close is hopefully a good sign that the car is on the pace and we get a close race!

Did it again, aced sector 2 and did enough in sector 3.

That's really related to running low DF rather than PU power?? That's awesome they are fastest on 2nd sector on Q3

Albon's pace is encouraging sign for me for car's overall speed. First a good start and then I hope a good winning finish after so many unlucky moments.

Yeah that was very good performance. He beat hamilton in S2 by 0.007.

Anyone else noticed how Horner mentioned Honda like 3 or 4 times after Max took pole? Just makes you wonder :lol:

Wonder what? I can't see them reversing their decision unless there's a coup at boardroom level by the pro F1 members. Honda is gone and the team is going back to Renault 😭

Even if they do it - unlikely - how many engineers are already looking for new opportunities? It might be too late to even reverse the decision.
