Is Ricciardo going to Ferrari any time soon?
 
so far like I said (=written) earlier. RBR very predictable. FP1 and FP2 excellente! Quali: will Mercedes push that hidden button again?
Race: well Ricciardo top 3 and Max.....
 
I'm watching FP2 now after I woke up but I just have to say WTF is Bob Varsha still doing on TV? He just said Ariana Grande as "Ariana Grand". It's Grande. With a long "a". The guy is so out of touch with everything ever...

Is he the guy who does a little bit of Formula E and sounds like he's talking to the audiences as if they're 3 years old?
 
Yes. Every race he goes over everything just in case you randomly decided that day to watch some race in a series that you've never heard before. Never talks about what's actually happening on screen.

I see it a lot in american racing coverage in general. They always beat the dead horse over how technically mind-boggling every little thing is and how amazing every person on the teams are at what they do. They always explain every aspect every chance they get. I think it's a side-effect of too much coverage when there's nothing going on, mostly with IRL and NASCAR. Kind'a like watching a news room struggle to find things to talk about when covering a live car chase.
 
I can't help but feel they're not going to go that far unless he Maldonado's the car in first practice or some other major screwup on his part occurs... but then again, I guess that's a very real possibility too. And not just because of the nature of the track.

(No I totally didn't miss that part in the post I quoted, what are you talking about?)

I laughed so much at this. Pastor making himself into a verb is quite an accomplishment. :D
 
Verstappen top of FP3, Ricciardo should have been there too but for a mistake on his hot lap.

Fernando something-or-other laying down a pre-contract marker too, very quick! :D
 
The big question is where Vettel and Hamilton will be at the end of qualifying. Slim chance either will be on pole. But if one of them gets a front row, that might be decisive.
 
If there is anywhere left for McLaren Honda to have a solid race and qualifying, it has to be here. Dare I say Alonso within shout of a podium if things go a little wayward up front?

I wouldn't be surprised if Vettel got pole, Ferrari and Mercedes always seem to have a bit of extra pace in Q3.
