Sainz already scraped the wall (Ferrari things) as usual.
LEW is whining about his brake pedal (can be his Baku brake smoke magic)

The RB19 got upgrades : The sidepod inlets are changed ...

The wolf man has already said he doesn't care if he replaces PU's every race to make his jalopies go a bit quicker, his woman boss in Stuttgart must be over the moon with that or is she still asleep

Perhaps there's a short in his re positioned brake magic button.

RB's quick out of the box while the others play catch up, and only the one final practice. It's looking good so far.
Gasly car was on fire and Mags broke down,ALO DRS is malfunctioning.

Engineer to Lew: ''Our programme is obviously out of sync''.

M5Rick · 04-28-2023, 06:45 AM

So it's Max on top and Charlie jumped Checo for second before the flag came down, the quali is next coming at 2PM GMT for the grid positions for Sunday's main race.

GuidoK · 04-28-2023, 07:18 AM

Well, the new format did liven up FP1, which makes sense.
But I took a day off because yesterday was a bank holiday where I live to create a long weekend, but with this format in normal situations you're missing qualifying when you have a normal work schedule....

We have our bank holiday on Monday over here and a normal working day over here today.
Q2 just started.

M5Rick · 04-28-2023, 10:01 AM

5 minutes to go in Q2 and so many changes on who's quickest, Checo with Max have regained the QT so far, it's 19.4C at he track so not hot at all.

M5Rick · 04-28-2023, 10:12 AM

Max pips Charlie in the last seconds of Q2 with Checo hanging on in 3rd. 12 minutes of Q3 imminent!

M5Rick · 04-28-2023, 10:22 AM

Chas gets an identical time to Max but stays second as Max got it first with Chas asking about that on radio...5 minutes to go.

GuidoK · 04-28-2023, 10:28 AM

LEC gets pole... Wow that was close that last lap.
Great lap from LEC.

E92inNC · 04-28-2023, 10:33 AM

Both Ferrari and McLaren found some pace over the break, McLaren was especially surprising.
I don’t see Charles holding off either RBs over long laps but good to see they clawed back some time.

M5Rick · 04-28-2023, 10:34 AM

Max on second with Checo third and all the cars I believe go into parc ferme now so can't be touched by the teams for any adjustments.

Not a fan of this rule, parc ferme should be enacted at the end of the second day’s last session where quali would normally be. One opportunity to adjust on the first day is not enough.
