Told ya. Oscar might do a surprise today and Mclaren is much faster than it showed on practise runs. I expect more from Lando than that. They got to be careful making time as early as possible to avoid traffic.

Piastri looks more comfortable.

But Norris got the job done. Important to get good banker laps as someone will bin it.

Btw Lando picked up some debris, this is why he went to pits before the last lap.

One Red Bull out and the other Ferrari is not doing that well. Let's see where we can bring our drivers. At first we need them both at Q3 without any incidents.

We need to find more time for both. That pole must be ours for a Senna tribute.

It's been that way since the upgrade. Norris got more points through fortune but Piastri has looked the faster of the two.

I'm sure Norris will pick it up today.

But there's always the worry that Leclerc can string another perfect lap.

It's another race which seems like it is the drivers that will make the difference. Beautiful stuff.

Did both drivers go out on old softs?

I think yes. The two Mercedes also had used tyres.

Does anyone know what part of the lap we’re losing time? Seems like we’re strongest in the middle sector

It's definately very tight and we need to find two to three tenths. The asphalt is also gaining time as time passes so we need to find the perfect situation to make the best time without getting delayed by traffic.
