There is no reason for Max not to win tomorrow outside of some freak occurence.

Merc had their engines turned up more than the other top teams in FP3.
Got a link to this? I saw comments saying the opposite, and we still donā€™t know fuel loads, but merc looked a lot better compared to yesterday.

Weā€™ll find out in a few hours.


I expect Max to win, but just how far ahead the redbull is.. thatā€™s what weā€™ll find out this weekend.

RB got the next couple of championships. Merc is too far behind and they wonā€™t be able to catch up with no more unlimited funds. They gambled on zero pod design and lost. Lewis isnā€™t getting his 8th WDC. Accept it.
if Aston Martin can catch up from being below mid tier in one year then surely there is still hope.

right :sadcam:

Aston Martin has a Newey protƩgƩ, so that machine may be a general concept copy of the RBR.

If nothing else it tells us the Merc engine is still good. Really depends on who has the greatest room for growth. That's Merc's only hope with this concept.

If Merc is 2-3 tenths off at night, when the tyres aren't in their best window and drag isn't fully overcome there is hope. Anything past 4 tenths is a long season
