3 week gaps are dull.

I hope to see McLaren with the newer livery to score a point at least. Mercedes will win anyway

Let's get some Pickems entries. Win bragging rights, get ragged on when you screw it up, and mess with Tazzy for changing his picks and excluding 6/10ths from his picks list!

Yea' Babe,

those guys are pussies for ducking me!

Kimi just cracked me up by asking his race engineer if he can come in because the long runs are boring him!

So true, I wish I had the balls to make the picks that Mia made.

These speed trap times are encouraging for McLaren. According to Fred he had a charging problem when he was on low fuel option run. Probably just an excuse though! :>

So little time these days.

Barely remembered it was this weekend and missed all practice.

Amazed that Mercedes are so low in the speed traps.

I doubt these practice speed traps really tell us the full story, a few will still be running with engines turned down.

You forgot that Mercedes doesn't turn their PUs on until Saturday. Plus I'm not sure, but I think both Nico, and Boss will be busting out new PUs for this race.
