98th pole..
Lewis was driving so relaxed but right at the limit with superb flow.. such a success hungry team.. epic!!!

life is most of the time not fair ok but Perez deserves a seat..
and even Albon was 0.6 behind it ll be nice to see him on the second row..

Really starting to look a bit routine for HAM, which is scary.

Nicely done from Alex after kamikaze FP2. Perez hauntingly just 0.05 behind.

Just opened up the news and no different storyline..glad that Max nailed FP3.
Here's hoping that Alex can back up Max without any hitches, the new chassis he's got should help.
Max just 13/100ths sec behind BOT is encouraging.

Bahrein will chew through the rubber easily .
The best tyre management will win this race ..

Albon ! Wow ...He did it almost again today . Same spot , same own mistake ..

This is getting ridiculous.
In previous seasons the RBs used to close the gap the 2nd half of the season. And Ferrari was always close so we had a few exciting races.
But 2020 is such a dominant and boring display from Lew/Merc. Just like Schumacher/Ferrari in 2004 (13 wins) and Seb/RB in 2013 (13 wins).
Fairplay to Lewis though, he is on top of his game.

Looks like he's got the seat for next year hence throwing caution to the wind, new chassis don't cost him anything
I'll watch that in the replay.

Worst part is that Merc stopped developing the car so long ago. So it’s even more pathetic that the other teams can’t catch up. FIA chipped away at Merc’s advantage banning power unit map changes, but still, other teams can’t close the gap. After 7 seasons, it isn’t just dominance. Other teams can’t figure out what works.

Yeah my friend , saw the article yesterday :
British journalist Chris Medland thought he saw Jos Verstappen and Toto Wolff having a chat today, possibly to talk about a potential changeover. Medland then shared that news via Twitter.

But.. As we can see , it was teleport !

SKY's in-depth assessment of the 2020 MB W11...."the fastest F1 car that ever lived" and MB's James Allison's technical assessment of why the W11 is so fast was a great insider's look at just why MB continues to dominate the F1 grid.
