Bit late with this one but someone on here will know a lot more than me about the reasons....

Why did Magnussen not come out for Q3 in France? Memory might be playing tricks on me but didn't Haas do the same with Schumacher a couple of races back? I know their car isn't going to get much higher than 10th but they'd already put times in that would have competed with Tsunoda and there is always the chance of flags or a crash affecting things so what are the reasons for staying in the pit?

Like I say, I'm sure there are very good reasons but I just don't know what they are.

EDIT - Don't think they actually did at all with Schumacher. Memory definitely playing tricks.

They were always going to start from the back of the grid because of a grid penalty so no point going out and wasting tyres. Sainz would probably have done the same were it not for him helping Leclerc with the tow
 
Shame that Seb is retiring. Great driver and always comes across as a great guy. Hope he had a good end to this season

Have to admit I used to hate him, he acted like a spoiled brat for quite a few years, especially multi-21 incident. That said I think he has matured into a different personality and is definitely a good person. Hopefully he gets a podium between now and his last race.

I completely failed to notice the grid penalty for Magnussen. Duh! I could have worked that out for myself if I'd been paying attention.

Note to self - stop being stupid.
