5 place grid penalty for Max on Sunday - Gearbox parts.

Very wet for the one and only practice session in Spa, could be a mixed up quali this afternoon

Ohh, I forgot it was a sprint weekend! Could make things a little more interesting.

Could indeed!

I do hope we get a quali session rather than they binning it and go with the championship order for the grid.

Also, few changes at Alpine…

I’ve changed up my fantasy team for this weekend too, to a very McLaren bias! However I’m not sure of their wet performance…

I think this weekend would be a good one to use the no-negative chip on.

Oooo I keep forgetting to do that.

F2 Quali just starting, they are out on slicks so hopefully looking good for a proper session later.

I just turned it on to a red flag with one in the gravel :rofl:

Just seen that too

It’s very wet now! Rivers on the track!

I have vowed that Spa will be a race I will never go to… unless I get a pass in the hospitality

Spa is a great track but the Weather is always terrible

Well that was a fantastic Q2!

Was willing Max to have a little moment on that last corner.

I was willing Gasly to go and get into to the top 10 to knock him out :rofl:

Haha as were we

Just caught up on the sprint

Good work Oscar!
However I do think that a 5 second penalty for Hamilton was a bit harsh. It’s not like he turned into checo.

It was quite an interesting sprint! Seeing Pia leading for a while, and then getting second was awesome. Seeing Gas hold off Ham for so long was also very impressive. Loads of unsafe releases in the pit lane!

I’m not sure on the penalty… It does sort of seem like Ham out braked himself, had massive understeer and was not in full control when he went into the side of Perez. Ham drifted hard from right to left, into Perez.

That was utter chaos, entertaining but chaos.

It’s one of those ones, I reckon if Checo hadn’t of DNF’d it wouldn’t have been penalty.

Thankfully looking like if they do get any rain, it should only be a little bit!
