Of course the hope for Vettel is Hamilton is due a DNF, although if Hamilton is lucky, he’ll get one when Vettel doesn’t score many

LOL, Vettel pulling up at the Red Bull pit during FP3!
It's been 2 years since he left Red Bull! https://youtu.be/XEz7mST4lrw?t=31s |

I also remember TGF strolling through the Toyota garage after crashing out of the 2006 Australian GP. Probably because he saw the name ‘Schumacher’ above it

Yep, Jenson at the 2011 Chinese GP was hilarious! But after 6 years of pulling into the same pit, Malaysia 2013 was only Hamilton's 2nd race out of the McLaren garage. But 2 years after leaving Red Bull is just ridiculous! It's either very funny, or very concerning. Where's Vettel's head at? |

He'll never achieve anything if he makes mistakes like that!

They give penalties for unsafe release, is this an unsafe entry? |

I remember when Button went into the RBR pitbox in the 2011 Chinese GP.

It sounds like a habit that WDC winners pick up - perhaps they feel entitled to use any box they like?

A couple of impedes in Q1. Quite a few heads not in the game? Is the Timberlake concert distracting them?

That was a hairy moment, with Grosjean nearly running into Stroll, as Stroll was crawling around, or should I say strolling around, on the racing line.

I'd just like to say on behalf of everyone in Australia, thank you Justin for giving us a decent qualifying time slot.

On Italian coverage, they are suggesting that Stroll's move to the right was an attempt to vacate the racing line, just that Grosjean came too quickly. At least GRO is in Q2, similarly Perez.

Just seen Alonso pulled into scrutineering with 5:38 left, but desperate to turn round at get out again to try and make Q3. Is the selection for scrutineering made randomly?

Verstappen looks to be considering the grid penalty by setting his Q2 times on 'S' tyres. I wonder why more of the teens runners don't mix it up more?

One thing I'm noticing on Italian TV is that they are highlighting how (in their opinion) Hamilton is not as clinical as Vettel. They are highlighting missed apexes and understeers, and showing how Vettel is driving better lines. Is the same replicated elsewhere?

They just showed Lewis's pole lap and he was just as smooth as Vettel. Having seen both laps, the Mercedes visually looked like the quicker of the two cars. Last edited by bjohnsonsmith; 21 Oct 2017 at 22:25. |
