Well my hopes of a slippery fast Red Bull have gone down the toilet.

Hopefully they can pull something out in Q3 but I doubt it.

The graphic is wrong, or the team made a mistake?

Ricciardo nooooooooooo
Not for nothing, Rosberg's Championship is the only thing that lends credibility to Hamilton's recent success. Otherwise, he'd just be the guy who's had the best car. — bhall II

1 Ham 2 Vet 3 Bot. Now we can see if Mercedes will struggle to follow with that intricate aero.
Always find the gap then use it.

Ham better in all 3 sectors and I wonder if this delay will allow the rain to come in.
