I think George would be gutted with anything less than 3rd.
But its a short lap so qualifying times will be much closer...pressure is on to get at least one of your two Q1 laps spot on. |

You, Belgium, his team, family etc etc and a bunch of other rabid fans say he is better than Lewis. If he can't beat BOT, who can't get out of his own way lately/is mentally effed in the head.........and a young inexperienced kid (who no doubt has a ton of talent etc) in a very foreign car to him, that looks very bad for Max. At the very least it ends the he is better than Lewis argument right now nonsense.

FP1 but lets not pretend BOT wasn't giving it a go... their times were less than 2 tenths off each other...
EDIT: Most often should have been used. Final FP1 was closer to .4 off. Last edited by fiveohwblow; 12-04-2020 at 10:23 AM.. |

Don't fool yourself, there is a ton of pressure on Max (from himself especially) for this weekend. He and everyone knows it/will be watching to see what he does with this opportunity that has been presented to him. |

Master stroke from Toto!
Georgie is doing great and his performance will surely weaken Lewis' position in the upcoming contract negotiations.

Since we all love conspiracies here...here is one I thought of last night.
Lewis doesnt have COVID and just wanted to see how he felt not racing while F1 was in fact racing. This would help him understand if he could be done or if he needs to keep driving. When Toto has said (paraphrasing) "I need to make sure someone can take my place before I step down" he was referring to Lewis as much as himself. This is that test! Note. I do not believe this to be true. |

RUS already proved he was fast in the W10 when he was faster in practice a couple of years ago.
