Great stuff from him.

Most impressive lap of the season so far

That should mark the end of Bottas in Mercedes

Norris car was an absolute mess. Just shows how much work they have done on the safety of these cars over the year. Crazy qualifying.

Gutted that Tory boy Russell is gonna end up in a Mercedes, that being said it was an incredible lap. Hoping Vettel can get a podium tomorrow if the rain comes, don’t think there is a better guy on the grid.

I love how he’s not bothered and said it simply as it is - what we all were thinking - and then potentially drove through debris to check on a fellow driver.

Total respect.

85-90% chance of the first rain affected race at Spa since 2010

The chance of rain is high although according to the two recent reports I've read they are only expecting light drizzle/rain - 0.2mm of rain.

The issue at Spa however is that while you don't get as much standing water due to the undulating track there's the chance of streams of water.

Looks a dead cert to be light rain throughout the race. Should be a cracker

I used to enjoy abit of rain but can see it being full of red flags. Hopefully doesn’t get ruined due to red flags. These cars seem to be too powerful for abit of rain. However with all that being said, it does bring out the difference in some drivers.

Common sense would suggest a behind SC start is the way to go.

Not ideal as a spectacle but better than a red flag 400m on from lights out.
