F1 2021 Round 15 Turkish Grand Prix 8th-10th October

Mick will not make it to Q3 we all know that but I also think.

Leclerc

Stoll

Tsunado and

Russell will not make it.

He didn’t have much pace and was tenth then sainz put in a fast lap to knock him out.

He thought he had done enough a good 90 seconds before the session was over so had came into the garage and Mick Schumacher beat it.

100% chance of rain my backside.

Like a real chess game. Black V White.

This commentary is doing my head in.

Anyways, I'm going Bottas for Pole and Perez to be behind Gasly.

Very poor from Perez.

Commentary is atrocious on Sky. Absolutely awful. I hope Button is not doing the race tomorrow.

How did Perez get a new RB deal? He is so poor, especially in qualifying. Consistently fails to deliver.

I've no doubt Max will get ahead fairly lively.

Perez poor again today, at least he is ahead of Hamilton and will be asked to do the job of holding him up.

I hope so to both and I also hope Perez makes it as hard as he possibly can for Lewis to pass him.

It's still a good result for Max. He can let Bottas shoot off into the distance for his last ever Grand Prix win if he wants to. All he has to do is finish ahead of Lewis and he regains the championship lead.

Qualifying is poor. Is really inconsistent in races, seems to vary from running good races where something goes wrong to trying to force things to happen and making mistakes.

While he’s not been good enough, it’s not quite at the Albon and Gasly levels. The fact that he won a race helps too and the constant revolving door of second drivers was probably not helping the team. I think the drivers market was not flush from a RB point of view this year but could be interesting come next season especially if there’s a shake up in the pecking order.

I think he needs to beat Norris to come in 4th for the season to be considered good enough and even at that, needs to pull his weight more for the constructors championship.

It's probably expensive enough taking over Honda's power unit development. They're building a new unit (The Webbhard Building) for the engine. It'd be ironic if that money started going to the one big critic of Honda these past 5 years. Alonso probably wouldn't even allow a Honda powered taxi bring him to the hotel.

I dunno, it’s a short stint to T1 and although Verstappen has the inside line, it’s also the dirty side of the track! Knowing Bottas’ current “nothing to lose” situation, it might be wise to be less aggressive at turn one of they go into it wheel to wheel and try to pass him later on the first lap if the opportunity arises!

Obvs if Verstappen gets the jump on Bottas he could be ahead by the time the reach T1 and it’s open road ahead of him!

A couple of hours to the start of the Turkish GP and it's still wet, grey and overcast, and that doesn't look likely to change...

Gonna be carnage on the wet track.

The Sky coverage is worst I have ever seen it, they have talked almost exclusively Mercedes. Barely a mention that any other team or driver even exists

This sh1te has to go.

Was the audio out of sync for the national anthem or was she lip syncing?

Nice to see him get a good result.

Race is going to be great. Re: syncing of sound, I find the Sky F1 audio is a little ahead of the picture all the time, nearly a second. It's noticeable when the commentators react to camera changes quicker than I can!

Yeah I never watch post or pre race anymore. Reckon F1 are v lucky Netflix came in with DTS or they'd be down a lot of viewers

That will be a great race
