It's due to be around 23-24 degrees I think. Touch wood lol, be more interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber nudge+ Posted July 12, 2019 Subscriber Share Posted July 12, 2019 Interesting - soft tyres only seem to be working for Ferrari so far. Most of the rest (Mercedes, RB, McLaren) are struggling and are faster on mediums than on softs. After quali runs both Mercedes upfront, followed by both Ferraris, then Gasly, Norris, Verstappen. Long runs coming up now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they used Spec 1 engine today and will probably just change to the Spec 2 engine that they previously used so no penalty there (those apply only if a driver uses more than a certain number of each power unit element during the season). Renault are screwed though either way as they chose a very aggressive tyre strategy and softs are not working at all... I believe Ricciardo only has one set of mediums. If the track conditions doesn't change they're in real trouble... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only read reports and watched few clips. If he can get pole and stay infront will be interesting. I reckon Merc might have a bit more in reserve though.

Not his best point, nor was the Ericsson "crash" in Baku last year but he's a good driver. He just seems to go through these periods where he's low on confidence and everything falls apart. I like him and he does bring entertainment to the sport, but there comes a point where I'd rather see a younger driver given a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have liked him less and less. He just seems to do the dumbest shit and get himself into trouble. I'm hoping he moves on and Haas gets a proper replacement.
