Stroll set the fastest time in FP2 today Hulkenberg was 7th fastest . Albon crashed but had great pace. Leclerq was top five with Vettels team struggling to get the car to run . Williams fighting for last row .

Mercedes is in such a zone they only lose if they beat themselves . Must be tough to be any of the other teams to keep pushing knowing you are spending so much $$$ but can only get so close .

^Its amazing they have increased the advantage they already had. And I would not be surprised if they have even more speed if they need to use it.

He brings whining, crashing, and embarrassment to the team. So you can’t say he brings nothing.

My wish list for today's GP. Ham, Vettel, and Hulk, on the podium in any order.

Ahh but you missed where I said " of any value " 😁 . But he does bring to the team what you stated . I really hope Haas signs the accord , cleans house of both drivers and resets and moves forward .

Towards the end of last season, he brought in a new sponsor. I think that saved his bacon.

RBR made a mistake by pitting Max, banking on Lewis pitting.
Wrong move.

Love that 20/20 hindsight.

Thanks to Pirelli for creating drama.

Hamilton did a great job maintaining the car after the tire failed.

The rest of the race was boring except for Haas drivers screwing up.

Hamilton gets to win with one full lap and just three tires.

I thought the superimposed driver info on the in-car camera views was pretty cool.
