Didn't Williams and Aston Martin also get it wrong?

Procedural errors completing the paperwork, no actual overspend.
Only Red Bull were accused of cheating.

And now they have a bloody yank on the other feed as well.

 

[Willie Trombone]

I still like my Sky feed. Don't know why they get a bad rap in some circles.
Hectic storm outside, Eskom off but inverter going nicely.

so much for ESKOM's "No load-shedding on Saturday and Sunday." announcement.

I enjoy the Crofty/Button/Kravitz combination but for the most part Sky's commentary is probably the best at least imho.

Ver on pole

HAM will get the tow from MAX into the first corner whilst RUS comes up the side with PER in tow.
Should be a good start.

I hope so, would love to see any other car than the spendy spice cars win tomorrow.

Go bottas! Epic quali from him

Well it could be close according to Wiki:
"Cheetahs' sprints have been measured at a maximum of 114 km (71 miles) per hour, and they routinely reach velocities of 80–100 km per hour while pursuing prey."

I think they got the spelling wrong and the speed estimates a bit low but the sentiment holds

 

[Whright]

Max on pole, well done , George Second great stuff.

 

[quovadis]

Was hoping for a Checo pole for a moment there. Pity Lewis couldn't repeat Q1 & Q2 for the pole.

 

[Mike Hoxbig]

Checo and George for a podium. Bottas to take everyone else out to give Charles/Lando the final podium...

This was storm damage. I heard the spark shower as the mains line across the lagoon got a direct strike.

 

[caroper]

No one has won from pole in the last few years.
The Tow into the fist corner is powerful so HAM and PER are actually better placed than MAX and RUS.

Don't you come here with your anti anti RBR nonsense

It seems a bunch of cars have very similar pace so expecting an eventful race

This, though that drag down the long straight will favour some.

My guess is the Mercs will be so busy defending against Sainz and Perez from behind, that Max will be left alone down the straight and into turn 1

Probably. Acceleration in a straight line will be in RBs favour. Overtaking with DRS is not Mercs strong point. What I would watch I'd I were Max is overcooking it in the corners.
