Now we just need Vestappen to have a super start and spoil the Ferarri party!:D:D

Not an unrealistic prospect. He's on the clean side of the track and if he gets off the line well, he won't be shy about getting the elbows out into turn one.

McLaren could win this. 6 Hot Heads get to the first corner at the same time and Alonso picks his way through the resultant wreckage....
 
Going to be interesting seeing how much di Resta can improve, seeing as he was only 0.7 sec behind Stroll and driving well within his limits.

After all the red flags in practice I was impressed that he didn't lose the car.
He has never driven this configuration and his last F1 drive was 4 years ago.
He actually did better than several experienced drivers seeing as he was learning the track and going for maximum speed simultaneously.
The big question now is can he keep it together for a full race distance whilst doing a race commentary from the driver's perspective. :)
 
Yesterdays F2 race was a real edge of the seat affair so I am looking forward to today's F2 reverse Grid race.

If Formula 1 did the reversal of grid thing.. Pure fun
 
Anybody have a calendar of races and SA times when lights go out? I seem to miss starts quite often these days lol
 
They're putting Seb's car back together after pottering with the gearbox... no penalties, but interesting nonetheless.
 
When did they start with Pre race buildup with presenters on the track? This season? It's brilliant. Love it?
 
Whoa... Ashton Kutcher... what is it with these celebs 'I'm here as a fan man!'
Apparently they earn too much money.
 
LOL 10 seconds for Verstappen???
I mean... I'm a Ricciardo fan but 10 seconds is what Seb got for deliberately banging wheels with Hamilton a few races back. FIA doing their worst again.

Stupid move by Vertappen but there's no consistency from the stewards. My opinion on the Vettel move was that he should have got a harsher penalty. Vestappen should have got a grid penalty for the next race but they should let him continue in this race without penalty.
 
This track sucks. Like Monaco without the yachts and prestige. Looks like it was made for go-karts.

Agreed, boring Hungaroring is f**king boring with these cars...

How can you have a race circuit where cars can’t travel more than 1.5 seconds of each other?
