Norris wont have the ability to deal with the increased pressure Oscar is piling on now.

Sounds like Lando got caught by yellow flag there.
He had let off before that, made an error in turn 16.
McClaren took too big of a chance, thinking both cars were safe and thats the risk of leaving the final run too late. Any yellow/red flag and thats qualifying screwed.
So much for Norris's title "challenge".

Just caught up with qually. Obviously huge feckup by McLaren and Norris. He shouldn't have slowed down,just complete the lap and qually and deal with whatever penalty he got or didnt (Russell didn't get a penalty for not slowing for yellow flag).
Anyway we almost always have a safety car at baku and Verstappen isn't up in P1 so there is a chance for Norris. McLaren is quick as piastri showed and has really good deg on tyres.
Surprised that even this late in the season, teams are still having issues with new floors. RedBull reverted back to an older spec floor and Hamilton reverted back to Silverstone spec floor.
Great lap by leclerc. The Ferrari looks quick with monza upgrades, that's despite them carrying a rear suspension handicap that can't be fixed until next season.

Does anyone still have Norris for WDC?
Wouldn’t be the first queen Jos has slapped.
If he bins it tomorrow coming through the pack that’s title over.
Nah, Max is unlikely to get a podium, if he finishes where he starts he's not gaining that much.
Hamilton starting from the pits because of PU change.
Dreadful start to the F2 race, lucky nobody hurt.

I have him 7th in the race , still a possibility from the pit lane.
This is an easy track to overtake.
From Lewis
Yeah, that’s why I might just leave him there , still have to change a few, I have Norris 2nd
I reckon if it was Piastri in the position Norris was in he would do it. I think Norris is a very good driver but doesn't have that final edge needed to be a champion.
Let's see if Lando starting 17th can finally do something about the godawful stat not having gained a single position starting a Grand Prix this season.
Going to be hilarious if he goes backwards at the start.
This year is his once chance in my opinion. Next year I believe Oscar will have surpassed him and cement himself as driver 1.
Somebody made the point in here that Lando showed in Sochi that he can’t handle pressure and I fully agree
Really boring grid walk!
I was extremely surprised when I saw the stat in a tweet called: "The worst F1 title candidate in history."
Leclerc really needs to convert this pole into a win.
Are you kidding me
I reset my prediction and now Hamilton is starting from the pits?!

Lando P18 by turn one?

Clean start for most and Leclerc keeps the lead
Didn't realise this was at 12. Vroom.
Stop saying “RB” instead of Red Bull it’s the same amount of syllables ffs
Shame Perez has found a bit of form don't want RB to win the title
When did this RB shit start ? What’s wrong with Red Bull
Isn't it just RB = what used to be Alpha Tauri/Toro Rosso, and Red Bull is still Red Bull?
#conspiracy theory.
Why is the decline in red bull performance disproportionately impacted Max? Perez is much closer to him.
I know Perez is a street circuit specialist but the gap also wasn’t that significant in Monza. Compared to the seconds difference for the rest of the season so far…
Just saying.

What was that from Russell? Didn't quite catch it.
Leclerc is raising his pace whilst Piastri sems to be holding off a bit. Possible 2 vs 1 stop strategies?
early pit for some, possible 2 stop
I thought he was talking about Perez and Max the first few times but yea maybe, bloody ridiculous name for the second team.
Perez is doing better in the last few races and is performing better than he was comparatively against everyone. There's definitely something on the car that's moved towards him and away from Verstappen.
if Aston Martin are serious about a WC bid they have to ditch Stroll
It's only the this race tbh, Max had some engine issues in Monza. In Spa, Perez started 2nd and was nowhere, Zandvoort finished well behind too
