By this he was thinking ...'THIS is my moment .

The world witnessed that HAM was/is pushed by a Rocketship in Warp-Speed !!!
MAX had *zero (0) chance by the Mercedes power and topspeed advantage .
If HAM and Mercedes takes a PU replacement in every of the 3 remaining races .
MAX has again ZERO chance !
But ...Of course , it's always a 5 P grid penalty . That Isn't a big deal with a fresh new Rocket Engine .

So why not Mercedes ?

The only reason why is the position on the gridstart and the 'RISK of OVERTAKING in the traffic ....
Max had that gear sync quibble again when it mattered in FP3 and I hope the r/wing repair will hold up for the Q123.

Actually I'd love for F1 to remove the ambiguity. Put in curbs or make the rumble strips so bad drivers dare not go near them. I think GRO said it best. Replace concrete runoffs with grass and drivers won't go out there.

It's on my friend !

This means 'currently I standing in front of my big screen ..

In other words : The combination of strong Belgian coffee and F1 makes me too nervous to sit in my relax seat ...
Won't take long before I have to step outside and watch it through the big window ...

Honestly Toto would be more convincing singing an 'Elvis' song than the stories he comes out with about the Merc back wing

I blame redbull. Everyone else came out on softs and they didn't anticipate that. By the time he came out on them track just keeps cooling down.

Looks like HAM's engine is still performing like last race with a zillion horsepower.

The difference between BOT and HAM is also considerable, over 6/10s
My guess is that that engine is full of upgrades.

''Oh I meant I'm up on power'' 'I was misquoted'. One day he'll tell the truth.
