The McLarens will be just too fast , because they ran the QF today with a race setup and less of wing and downforce for the race ..
Spa-Francorchamps 2022 (highlights video: here):
  • lap 1/44: Verstappen P14 (10 places grid penalty)
  • lap 12/44: Verstappen P1
  • finish: Verstappen P1

Ohhh ...I know that very well . Think I've watched SPA-2022- 5 times .

That day MAX was unbeatable , to think that for tomorrow . That would be extremely optimistic.

But we can hope for it ...

Kravitz and Crofty are both no talent clowns to say the least. The UK bias is so strong in anything they do or say. If Max is doing something it always has a negative spin on it but if some UK driver is doing the same thing, and, by and large they dont do it nearly at the same level as Max, they make it seem like they've created world peace. I think they overcompensate because the UK drivers arent really all that good and the best guys ever in F1 are Dutch, German, Brazilian, Spanish, and Argentinian.

I wouldn't go down that alley myself and pick countries, just put it it down to wrong choices by sky in keeping Kravitz and Croft with their bias for certain drivers that borders on prejudice.
After Hunt and Walker finished commentating on F1 it generally slowly went down the pan with commentators seemingly chosen at random.

I think they've sorted Max's car's balance... I get the feeling he's going to do really well. But still hoping for a legit Oscar win and no sooking on the radio from anyone

Love the fact that the rain has kept most teams from preparing like they wanted to. Big unknown. Good drivers and teams will have to read and react.

Sounds like Spa has been resurfaced some and it adds to the unknown. Should be a fun/great race to watch!!
