What's the FIA got to do with it in your opinion? How do they play a role from your perspective?

MAX's pole lap was fantastic and unseen . But the softs won't last long in the race ..

Weird qualifying strategy from Mercedes - not sure I quite understood what they were trying to do.
But nothing was ordinary this season and makes for an epic final race of the season. |

I think tomorrow will be interesting, particularly race strategy. Max does well conserving tires and if he can maintain a good race pace, I'm curious how this plays out with those softs as it seems he does not have mediums?
Let's go Lando! Finish the season with a podium! |

In normal circumstances, Red Bull has the strategy advantage ... The downside is , the softs won't last long (enough) And of course HAM's Rocketship pace during the race ...

I sadly had to miss qualifying, but what a result.
I'm not sure I like the idea of Max on reds and HAM on yellows. I understand why RB chose for it, with the reds you virtually guarantee to be first at T1 because of the traction benefit and then of course you control the race. I think the red tyre will probably give about 0,5s per lap advantage in the best case? But this probably means Max is going for a 2 stop and HAM for a 1 stop? An undercut by HAM is at least not possible, so if both go for a 2 stop, Max will still have the tactical advantage up to the 1st stop. It's going to be an interesting race tomorrow. NOR also on reds, can he overtake HAM with an incredible jumpstart? Wow, that was some qualifying lap! The gap is considerable.

So apparently Norris is "a bit nervous" about the start and doesn't want to mingle in the WDC.
https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/n...ilton/6874524/ This means Toto called him not to intervene in the start although he is on the faster red tyres..... Any self respecting race car driver looks at his own performance and results first and not at battles that others do with eachother. Can you imagine in the past drivers like Senna or Schumacher saying this?!?

Lewis definitely has the upper hand tomorrow with the tire situation, hopefully Max doesn’t try anything dirty with the tire disadvantage and we get a clean race. Shame that Max flat spotted his mediums during Q2 and they had to put him on softs. I wonder how many laps were on his other medium set and if they could’ve used that instead.
