Nothing debatable, Hammy & Verstappen head and shoulders above Bottas & Perez
F1 2021 Season

I said Bottas is miles better than Perez in qualifying.
I can't say I'm Horner's biggest fan and he definitely fanned the flames on this to an embarrassing point but let's not act like hateful and disgusting social media comments is something new. This was arguably the biggest and potentially most decisive incident in F1 in a very long time and there are countless idiots out there who will abuse anyone who gets in the way of their favorite driver, especially if the WC is on the line.
Athletes and celebreties in general recieve hate for dating the wrong person or changing their opinion on which fast food chain is the best, so that both Max and Lewis were abused after last weekend is about as surprising as the sun rising. I'm positive that Horner contributed to it, but it would've been really, really bad even if he hadn't.
Hungarian GP Qualifying
looking forward to this qualifying.
Pole is clearly between Max and Lewis.

Max is flying in Q1.
And Nico is annoying straight off the bat.

What's the track like on pole side and vice versa?
So have HAM,VER, BOT in top 3 in varying orders in 95% of all sessions this season, with Perez alternating between 4th and 12th. It just is not a coincidence anymore, right? How good are Verstappen or how immensly bad are Perez? This years Red Bull is much better than previous cars but still Perez is struggling mightily. Red Bull must be so frustrated their 2nd driver cant even see the back of Hamiltons car outside of street races all seasong long. Perez is literally useless to them.
Each driver will have imput for his car, maybe Perez is just not that good on setting up his car.
Lewis , Max and Bottas we know are very good at the tweeks they need to do.
1 second difference to Max, wow. If Perez continues like this, he might not even make it to the end of the season.

track temp is 62 degrees , that is HOT !!
nip and tuck in Q2, Lewis just with the edge.
Seb with a very good lap. P3 at the momment.
Alonso gets P3
Carlos with a huge shunt RED FLAG
Carlos tried to drive the car back, with the front wing stuck under that car, Mental thing to even try.
How the hell did he get that moving again, thought the suspension would be messed up
Ferrari was looking good until then.
maybe gearbox also, they will have to check it out.
apparently a gust of wind took Carlos out .
Norris with a good lap in Q2
Max starting with soft tomorrow 
RB on reds, Mercedes on yellows, right?Max starting with soft tomorrow
Some wind

Yeah they seemed to change strategy after the crash, after starting Q2 on mediums, wonder what the thinking was.

Maybe some bet on the expected weather as well
Red Bull will start the race faster, but the heat will kill the softs pretty quick I would of thought.
Maybe advantage Mercedes ?
Maybe advantage Mercedes ?
No rain expected and forecast even hotter.
2 stop strategy for the Redbulls, will be interesting. Still not sure why though. Especially for Max.
Perez wouldn’t have got through on mediums. I think they sent Verstappen out to test the softs like Mercedes with Lewis then saw the improved times due to track improving so he had to complete a lap.
Max out first in front of Bottas and Lewis.
This makes sense, I doubt they wanted to start the race on softs.
Seems like a slip up from Red Bull starting on the sorts, definitely will two stop from there.
Lewis on P1 , half a second ahead of Max in P3
the sharp end of Q3, this is it.
Lewis out ahead of Max, going very slow in the pit lane out.
Lewis out ahead of Max, going very slow in the pit lane out.
Dirty tricks by Lewis there
Sergio missed the Flag WTF , thats not good.
