"McLaren stunned the field with an impressive performance, securing pole position with Lando Norris leading the charge".
I say Leopold, you may wish to edit this entry. Max actually took pole, and as much as we would all love to have seen Lando win pole, he didn't quite make it. Great result for McLaren and both their drivers to secure P2 and P3.
Bless him , Leopold is just excited to see anything in orange at the front, when Lando was going well, he just assumed it was Max lol, biggest sigh of relief was Mark Webber in the Mcl garage when his bot got P3 , the look on his face was priceless
Oeps, the temperature caused some brain fog, I guess...
Another victory to lose for Max & probably another comeback struggle or damage limitation for Checo.
Mclaren drivers could struggle to stay in the top 3, but we'll see.
George Russell again overshadowed his teammate with a strong qualifying performance. George appears to get on with driving and leave the whining to Louis. Mercedes don’t need to worry post Hamilton and Hamilton needs to focus on getting the best out of a competitive car. The Hamilton ere is finished in 2p21
Anyone else hear on sky the points difference between King G and Dame Louise bang on equal after a year and a half, a stat is a stat is a stat but Wow
