Just want to say Liam Lawson did pretty good here in the FP1, not far off Yuki at all.

doing himself no favors.

Curious to see if he can turn things around tomorrow. He looked on par with
Max on his first run in SQ1, being two tenths off. Kind of interested in watching his SQ2 lap and see what he did wrong. edit - watched, looks like he was a little out of control on the s-curves, still not liking the curbs.

Hulk has a contract for next year, not going to happen.

Bottas might be a better bet, honestly.

Would seem obvious and Horner will be getting more rack punishment from Marko to act but in any case its good to see MAX smiling again

With money you can buy anything. Red Bull can do it easily .
Nico and MAX are good friends . So why not ..

Bottas ?
Please don't do that (!)

Interesting that everyone claimed RBR was cheating and it was said the team that was cheating would have a drop off in performance. McLaren dropped off quite a bit and their car all of a sudden looked unbalanced and neither of their drivers looked all that impressive. Max outdrove his car during the last 12-14 races when it wasn’t nearly the fastest and won more races than any other single drive since after Miami yet as soon as the McLaren car isn’t a crazy dominant car with perfect balance their drivers get knocked out in Q1 and Lando is close to 3 tenths off the pace.
