Was a mistake to bring Colapinto back. Calling it already. He is absolutely showing no awareness on track today.

Is there a purpose of reading these FP2 race sims? Nobody would be showing what they got. The timing of FP2 is also weird. It doesn't align with race time on Sunday. Most cars had traffic today, which disrupted free run for anyone's race sim.

They show who is struggling with tire degradation and who is not. Engine modes won't be a factor in that.

I'd call the picture a bit scattered.

I wonder if many people will try a run on the mediums for qualifying later on.

Max going back out on used softs for a run

I doubt it. There is much more pace in the softs, just a lot of laps with many mistakes.

the mistakes come from the balance shift on Softs, though. Much more understeer with those, and if teams overcorrect that, they will struggle with the opposite tomorrow.

Did we even see more than a couple of a seconds gain for anyone?

Pirelli strikes again. That new c6 tire seems to be garbage. I think we will see teams run on mediums in quali.
