Interesting qualifying. There was part of me that was hoping Max woul beat Danny but another part hoping not as I really like Ricciardo. Great to see Verstappen so close to him.
Also great to see that Lewis was able to finally get a quali together and once again showed he could beat Rosberg when it mattered most. He has a 100% record so far this year in their head to head for when he had no reliability issues. It shod how strong Hamilton is mentally to bounce back. If he gets the start right tomorrow then hopefully it will be win 1 of the season for him!
Be interesting to see if Lewis Hamilton can correct his poorer starts this season. Cos until the start nothing is certain.
He needs an awesome race tomorrow to bring himself back in.
Very interesting qualifying, superb lap by Danny. Despite Max being a fair bit behind Danny in Q3, I still think that's a very solid QR for someone learning a new car.
I wouldn't have said this three years ago but I hope we see a very different tomorrow with Ferrari and RB being a lot stronger in the race with superior tyre wear and able to challenge Mercedes.
What is up with Ferrari?
Marchionne went and shot his mouth off that they were going to start winning this weekend.
I guess Fred has the best explanation I've heard so far:

Fred! :crazy: :laugh:
The topper will be if Seb takes out a Red Bull at turn one.
It must suck to be Rosberg right now. According to Toto Wolff on Austrian TV Hamilton copied Rosbergs setup after FP3 and beat the pants off him, So much for all the people who said HAM hasn't got a chance anymore. It's back to the karting days.
I'm not so sure it will be that easy. He still has a fair amount to catch up, his starts have had issues and he has more pain ahead of him in engine penalties with already being on his third turbocharger and MGU-H of his 6 token allocation for the season.
It makes for a more exciting season but my attention is focused more on what's happened at RB and how Max and Danil get on against their new team mates. I guess it's the closest thing we can get to cross comparing drivers from other teams in the same car.
Afternoon guys.
I have to go and visit someone in hospital soon, so I will only see half hour live and will have to watch the rest 2 hours lately.
