I remember when they first put the tarmac on the inside of Raidillon, the GT drivers just straight cut it. Then they added sausage kerbs which is far more dangerous there then gravel. There was that FRenault flip years ago because of it.

Which means Lewis and bottas will be 2 & 3 and max 5. Since it would take Q2 results. And with Norris getting a penalty for changing car, if he can race at all, means Lewis can be handed the win already.

Since Q3 was started, isn't the grid determined by the order they left the pit?

Lando did a mistake right there, but it doesn't exclude the fact track conditions were far from ideal. Russell fucking acquaplained in the middle of the straight.

These cars and these tyres do an awful job dealing with proper rain, sadly.

Same here, they can redesign every they want but not the layout of the track.

Pirelli wets have always been a mess. They never do enough testing with them.

Dutch tv mentioned it would be based on Q2. But he also mentioned that Senna saved van der Poele instead of Comas :whistling:

I would argue that with the same layout and 100m run-off each side, Eau Rouge would lose any challenge or appeal (to me at least - if it's considered a relic from other times and not suited to modern racing and modern approach to risk, then best of luck).

Oh..haha got your point. Mental challenge(big crash) is also why the race track is classic.
