Hmmmm... 13th in Q2 I believe, but were mistakes by other drivers in Q3 which helped? 

 

Yes, Alonso has still done well with what he's got, but chances are he won't be seventh come the first corner.

Alonso usually starts well. He's going to be a road block in the race.

It'll be difficult to be a road block given the long straights and lack of power.

Hoping for an Alonso top 10 finish today, doubt he could get much more than that. I'm going for a Hamilton win too.

Seb is incredible 

[spacemunky]

Great pass Lewis!

[Facecloth]

Completely forgot to switch over from the massacre at selhurst park to watch this. What time are the highlights on?

[Nick]

Well 6 laps of excitement and an overtake - who'd of thought F1 had it left in it.....

 

Shame it was due to tactics rather than drivers and engines but it has at least made for a degree of interest.

[The Horse's Mouth]

Ocon and Perez are really tidy drivers, shout out to Wehrlein be amazing if he can get a points finish

[Ian W LCFC]

Really good race that. Some lovely overtakes into turn 1. And my Lewis prediction was correct. Force India are right behind Red Bull in the constructors!

I'll agree it was one of the better races I've seen this year... but it also ended up being a bit of an anti-climax. 

 

Its also clear the gap between Mercedes + Ferrari to the rest is too much. The rest simply tootle around to make up the numbers, they're not involved.

at least we've now got a potential of 4 who could win the title now and it's not just who is the best silver arrow though.

well, he's got the car he's just naff now. 

[Stinkenzo]

Would be interested to know who your 4th driver is? (pretending I didn't read the two posts above)

[isaidno]

Palmer needs to up his game. Getting his ass kicked by Hulkenberg. 

[The Horse's Mouth]

he can't he's a binman 

[iamafox]

Just seen that both Force India drivers have scored points in every race so far this year. That's what you call consistency.

Indeed. Shouldn't be there, a la Max Chilton. He's also the most boring driver I've ever seen interviewed. More boring than Mansell even.

[DJ Barry Hammond]

 

So Max Chilton has a seat in IndyCar! Just spotted after reading the initial qualifying report on Alonso. 

 

I can't avoid the feeling, Alfonso' going to do this. He's going to win the thing.

[isaidno]

Alonso through to the final qualifying. Bourdais crash was brutal, lucky to survive the impact. 

[iamafox]

Stroll and Palmer knocked out of Q1, what a surprise

[Facecloth]

Great save by Hamilton at the top of Massenet. Could easily have been in the wall.

[StanSP]

AHAH Hamilton out of Q3 cos of Vandoorne's crash. Gutted.

[Legend_in_blue]

Hamilton's situation was caused by his team faffing about.

 

Faffed about using daft 2nd out laps instead of nailing it first time.

Kimi on pole
