Interesting. It seems to be working which is the important part. I wonder how the race pace is though, COTA seems to be super abrassive so it is hard on tires. I guess we will see tomorrow - err actually today I just didn't go to sleep yet lol.

What makes sense to me is that Merc would want to open up a gap to Checo all being well at the start but it may not be the case with his improved pace and hopefully Bot will be held starting from 9th. |

From the startgrid top 4 : The one who has the best tire management and the best pitstop strategy is in normal circumstances the winner of the race ! The COTA track will chew very quickly through the rubber !

HAM will be inside on front row correct? Pole position is outside heading into turn 1?
Hopefully it's a clean dash toward turn 1 and no one pushes out wide or closes the inside off. I want some good battles these next few races and no DNF's. |

Let's keep in mind : BOT has the 2 McLaren's and the 2 Ferrari's in front of him . Today Red Bull has (finally) a race strategy with Checo . Today Mercedes hasn't a race strategy . HAM ? Watch out for his dirty (Silverstone) tricks ! *Deliberately going too wide is HAM's trademark !

If ham gets a better start hes going to push max as wide as he can… why wouldn't he. Any racer would. Nothing dirty about that IMO. Max would do the same if he started p2

RIC is a very fortunate individual. Gets to drive Senna's McLaren and wins bet for Earnhardt's too...Plus he's given out I few tattoos...I'd never bet against him for sure.

After the FP sessions both Merc cars got significant floor damage by the COTA bumpy track ! The floor from both Merc's scraped too much over the track , so the floor had to be repaired and reinforced before the QF began ...

Going to be an interesting race with abrasion being high. Checo is well known to be good at tire management.

Need Hammy Fan input
In post-qualification, the drivers are asked how intense they experienced their last run.
Max: “I knew I had to find a bit more in the last run, so then naturally it’s a bit more exciting and this track as well, once you then put the lap together as good as possible, it’s of course a nice relief." Hammy: "I didn't feel it was intense at all, when you’re in the car, you’re just doing what you love doing. So, it’s pretty chill." From a casual observation, Hammy’s labored breathing on the radio contradicts his comment of “pretty chill”, if this is “chilled” I fear for what excited entails. Although I understand what he is attempting to do, it comes across a bit poor and contrived. Need Hammy fans to help me understand.
