Fabrega says Lewis is using the Turkey PU this weekend.
 

Certainly seems interesting.

Why NOT use it at this point?

It does degrade with use more than they like, so if they think they can win with the older unit here, they can save that big one for the more power sensitive tracks coming up.

Qualify had an odd flow to it. Makes for an interesting top ten. 
 

A little surprised more didn’t go soft on P2 as it seems track position will be key with little passing

Yeah, that seems likely. Running the old motor certainly didn’t seem to hurt him on today’s evidence. Lewis seemingly had a 0.2s-ish advantage, even before Max’ last flying lap got yellow-flagged. 

What would Red Bull give for a Bottas, a 2nd driver who can reliably qualify in the top four, get podiums, and win when the top driver has a rare off day. Yeah he’ll go “full Bottas” now and then, but he’ll have played a massive role if Lewis and Merc win the titles.  Checo has had good race pace but not making it to Q3 (on softs no less) really hurts them. His one-off quali pace hasn’t been there this year. 

Hmmm will Maxi get a penalty?

If he didn't slow for double yellows should atleast be a 5 place grid drop I would think

Precedent is 3 for a single yellow (which Bottas and Sainz passed) and 5 for a double (which Max passed). So, we will see. FIA doesn’t seem to like to follow precedent this year, but the steward summoning times seem to be 15 mins apart for Bottas and Sainz, and 30 for Max, which may give us a hint.

Idk if I said this lately but fuck Max and the Dutch

Should be pretty cut and dry right? Saw video, but couldn't see anything on a small screen. 

I did watch onboard with Gasly. He ran wide and his tire just shredded instantly. Especially interesting because I assume it only had the one lap on them. Wonder if we will see more of the same tomorrow.

It actually got destroyed by his front wing failing.

So curbs -> wing failing -> tire puncture?

Yep. Ironically, if those other drivers get penalized, it will promote Gasly to P2!

Also, as someone rooting for Max, I just want to thank the Longhorns. With Lewis seemingly in a rocketship now, it seems like the title will be his to lose. But thanks to the past decade of Longhorn football, I don't feel so bad about it. You can only pull the rug so many times before it just doesn't really bother you as much.

Also, that black Merc just flying around that track under the lights looks so damn mean.

Yep, but tbf, getting a root canal or colonoscopy are more exciting than our football team.

Yep, I think it's all but in the bag for Lewis at this point. But, they still have to run the races...

I miss the Silver Arrows. The black was fine as a novelty, and I understand the social statement being made, but the silver Mercs were beautiful.

They are beautiful but gotdam I love the black and will be sad to see it go as well. It’s bittersweet, really.

I do think the W11 is my favorite car ever.

Good call

Carlos was determined to have lifted. If his had been under double yellow he probably would have gotten a penalty, but avoided it this time.

Bottas and Sainz  grid positions have been swapped. Valtteri starts 6th, Carlos 5th

Mildly interesting that the RB uses shorter steering ratio than MBZ.

Watching the side by side lap view and RB applies more steering angle at every corner (its not just because of different lines). 

So a little more steering precision afforded by the RB, and also more leverage / less physical demand 

 

Big opportunity for Gasly today. Let’s see what he makes of it.

Hamilton is going to walk away with this race short of a wreck or mechanical issue.  Max up to 3rd already.

Maybe I spoke too soon.  Max is closing the gap now that he's in 2nd.  Bottas doesn't have a good car today.

YES. The cars are supposed to be SILVER.

Hamilton is a full pit stop ahead of the rest of the field. Max has second locked. Let’s go Alonso!!

Why is it so dark at 5:30 PM?

Did they change Max's front wing?  Missed the round of pit stops.

2.3s pit stop so I don’t think so

Come on Perez, get moving.

I still am a bit conflicted on the 1-point for the fastest lap. I think it should be open for the entire field. Give the guys in the back something to go for towards the end of a race.

Championship is going to come down to the points Max didn't get at Silverstone.

And this, and Baku.

We could also mention Bottas taking out both Red Bulls in Hungary. That was a +16 for Hamilton there. So at Silverstone it was +23 for Hamilton. If we wanted to be accurate.
