That's why I would love to get MAX next to me as my teammate with Mercedes . *It is actually my chance to prove something* ! By this ...I could finally show that... *I am the better driver* !

Guys ...What do you think about the statement from Lewis ? Bluff ?
I hope they do it, but for sure there must be at least a portion of bluff in it from Lewis. Would be cool if he genuinely wants that challenge, and maybe he really does. Although, he didn't seem too keen on it with Nico...

???
LH joined Merc with Nico already there.


Moot point anyway. I think MV will stay at RB. Both teams have junior programs and it would be bad form if they put MV in a Merc above Ocon and the other Merc juniors.


There's probably a better chance of LH going to RB. And while we're speculating, Alonso into a Merc.

Never heard of that

Bellof is (was) the real Lord of the Ring. Runner up Stefan Roser imo.

Lewis just 0.013 faster in P3 than Max.

Let Qualifying commence!

what neck-and-neck quali was that.. grats to Max with his first pole..
first 3 teams were on rockets comparing with the rest.. they re just annihilated really with over 1.5 seconds..
tomorrow will be a very interesting race starting from the formation lap..

and Kubica was 4 seconds slower than Max's lap.. 4 seconds over a lap that longer just a bit 70 seconds is way too much..

Awesome qualifying - hopefully this close qualifying translates into another awesome race tomorrow.

Russell was so close!
Leclerc, eek! Impressive he was running at the beginning of Q2 - that was a solid smack.
Ricciardo - wat you doing, you crazy
Gasly 1sec behind his teammate, oh not looking good.
Bottas on point! Nice run at it!
Hamilton going to be on a mission tomorrow
Max - well just reaffirmed his status as the greatest ever - well at least to us fan boys


Sure hope that RBR has their "mapping" issue worked out for the start tomorrow so Max doesn't get a silver arrow up the wazoo when the lights go out!

I'm with you my friend...I'm with you

Words cannot describe how happy I am !
But I'm still worried about his bad launch control in the last 3 races (mapping issue)
HONDA ! Please don't let him down !

Interesting qualifying order should make for a great race tomorrow.

It seems that Max has by far the biggest following throughout Europe and there is always a contingent of orange at every race.

Good lineup. Let’s see what Ham & Leclerc are made of. Ham is the only competitive veteran left. Still leaves an awesome legacy if he doesnt win another race.

Hopeful VER's anti-stall software does not kerfuffle his launch from P1....hopeful VER leads after lap 1 and he thwarts challenges from those less fortunate to be launching from P1....

Nope, because Lewis is a real racer who loves the thrill of competition.

However, I can't see Merc getting Max, as he has a solid contract at RB. I do however see Ocon replacing Bottas next year.

Hamilton was his usual brilliant self, but even more brilliant was the pit stop strategy by James. Also lovely to see that Hamilton admitted he was wrong.

I feel for Verstappen though, as he did not make a mistake today. Overall one of the best races, only beaten by Germany last week.

Yeah . Yesterday Horner confirmed that , MAX is very happy by the latest Honda improvements . RB will keep Gasly for the rest of the season .

LH lays down the marker, great strategy and pumping in crazy laps, he would have had him on the track if not for that mistake. Good drive by max, bring on the schumi 91 wins
