RB16 loses, Wind wins. Just like last year. The first deleted lap would have been pole anyway. Now 3rd and 4th and not much optimistic for tomorrow. I think it will be a s**t race...

Starting behind Bottas on the clean side isn't so bad, there are opportunities in the first 5 corners, but Max will need to be careful to not get pushed out

I don't think it will be a s**t race. Max was angry and when he is angry on a saturday he mostly is very good in the race and what Ispano says. Perez also did a good job this time.

Perez is starting with mediums too??

P.S: Also, that laps the Merc did with the mediums on Q2... I think they've improved a lot, and it won't be easy. The RB16B seems to be tricky to setup correctly like his old brother

Bottas will block clean side allowing Hamilton to be free of trouble

LOL! That's a drastic and unwarranted feeling of disappointment, I assure you, there's everything to play for tomorrow.

A bit frustrated because Max would have been on pole... Now that 2 Mercs are on front, it's a great wall to claim victory. I was thinking the Merc were a bit far this weekend, but in the end they were close enough (not on mediums on Q2)

The fact that Bottas is the car on pole is a source for optimism. I’d be a lot more downbeat if it was Hamilton on pole.

Max should get his elbows out at the start tomorrow like he did in Imola.

A car on the front row would've been a lot better for morale. Bottas always fluffs the start when he's on pole or Hamilton will just find a way past him anyway. And expecting an Imola type start from Max is very unrealistic. He should just aim for damage limitation this week, no silly moves. Anything that's not a Mercedes 1-2 is a good result. I agree with Marti I think the race will be a complete snooze

Perez in 4th will limit the pit stop possibilities for the 1st and 2nd placed runners, so it could be a good team race.

Assuming he can keep the pace...

Apparently the balance of the car in such low grip and windy conditions is still not perfect. Max knows that he cannot afford to lose too many points early on in the season, I think that was the reason he was so disappointed. What will be the wind tomorrow during the race?

I don't expect an Imola level launch or anything, but it would be nice to see some proper aggression tomorrow.

Verstappen sounded really pissed off after qualifying, and an angry Verstappen is usually a dangerous Verstappen.
