I'll put the SC over under at 2.5 and red flag over under at 1.5.How many red flags tomorrow?

I thought it was determined if Max hadn't improved his time, Max would then only be ahead by .004. Maybe I got lost in some bad Reddit math.Did anyone realize, that the 18 thousands of a second, that Hamilton is behin Max, is the exakt same time, that Max improved upon in his second run? That's just incredible. Had Max not improved, Hamilton would've exactly matched his time, but would still be counted second, as Max ran the time first. But it would've looked so effing cool. It's like Max felt it and just wanted to make sure.
When Max crossed the line he went up .038 on his previous lap, which was the gap that showed up when Hamilton finished his lap. 1:08.923 was Max's initial first lap, which matches Hamilton's final time.I thought it was determined if Max hadn't improved his time, Max would then only be ahead by .004.

In Q3 Verstappen again went out early to stake his claim to pole and he claimed provisional pole with an impressive lap of 1:08.923. Neither Mercedes driver had an initial response and Bottas took P2 0.099s behind the Red Bull, with Hamilton just under five hundredths of a second further back in third place.
In the final runs Verstappen proved unbeatable. Hamilton found more time but in the end it was only enough to match the Red Bull driver’s earlier lap and Verstappen secured pole for his home grand prix with a stunning lap of 1:08.885.
sessions with less than 2 minutes are not being restarted in general in F1On a minor note did the FIA say why Q2 wasn't restarted? 1:38 was enough time for many drivers to get round and start a lap. Did they choose not to because there probably wasn't enough time for all 13 cars to do it?
Did they all piss in the sea and are they all that dehydrated?
Dutch former racing driver Guido van der Garde was doing the post-qualy interview with Lewis and told folks to knock it off, after which most of them stopped. There was a mild applause after the interview ended.Again with the booing. It's so obnoxious, though at least it sounded like some of it stopped almost immediately.
Simulated lap times are around 1:18, at 2.64miles that would be an average speed of about 122mph. Even if they get down to 1:15s that would still be "only" 127mph.
This aged wellThat's slower than I expected. Was envisioning laps down in the 1:10-1:13 area.
At least there were some laps in the 1.10s 😆This aged well
Heh. I think the Zandvoort track designers must have called in Rangunathan to do their simulation. It was certainly on the conservative side.This aged well
Post interview with Horner: "We have to take a penalty for engine swap somewhere in the season so maybe it is best to do it now". (based on the poor quali and thus P16 for Checo).Wonder if RB should do an engine swap for perez.
Since he was knocked out of Q1, and near the back, a few more places wont hurt and the will get a penalty out of the way.
