10-place penalty confirmed for Sainz
We knew it was coming, but the FIA have now made it official that Carlos Sainz will get a 10-place grid penalty for Sunday's race.
That's because he's fitted a third energy store of the season, exceeding the permitted two.

This is hilarious. They're doing everything they can to make it as bad as 2005 and we're still only on practice sessions. Vegas is turning into a big nail in the coffin for F1.
How old was Sainz engine?
Fred not having the interviewers and Toto's attempts to still provide positive PR coverage for Vegas. Ridiculous questioning so fair on him.
I'm looking forward to Martin Brundle's gridwalk on Saturday/Sunday 
Sainz got the penalty is silly
Mclaren have made changes to the car to run a single Beam Wing ala RedBull so they can have the same DRS gains. A hard concept for many teams to pull off as they need double beam wings for rear downforce. So something for example Mercedes cant do this season, because rear of their car is so lacking in downforce.

Fair fecks. Is this day and age it's out of the norm to not blow smoke where it has been asked to be blown
$135 for a cocktail in a shoe anyone?
They have raised minimum pressures overnight which will probably reduce grip. The length of DRS zone has been increased by 50m overnight as well.
No apology, why am I not surprised.

could the new track cold temps throw up a shock pole ?
I have still gone for Max, but you never know.

Sky F1 doing a good job, bigging up this pig of a track, even saying one corner could become one of the best in F1

Ocon overtook Verstappen after they both started their laps. Vertappen then overtook him back into T1. Both laps ruined.
I had Norris 2nd and Piastri in top 10, Fantasy aready a mess.I was reading before that Sphere cost $2.3BILLON 
Fantasy already fecked up.
Tsunoda causing yellow flags at turn 5.
KMag having a very good qualifying
Unnecessary shot of sphere, just concentrate on track.
I just realized i fecked up BIG time, instead of Leclrec, I had put Sainz on pole. WTF.
Wow Ferrari pace is amazing on this track.
I didn't see the entire lap, but what Max did in that first corner was clear racing and closing the line - hence not fair thing to do in qualifying.
Finally a chance for Leclerc to win a race?
