The last couple seasons has really changed my perception of Vettel. I always liked him or at least was indifferent to a lot of the hate he used to receive, but he’s just been fantastic and classy in everything the last few years.feck Norris.

I agree , Seb used to be very disliked, but now for me he is one of my fav drivers.The last couple seasons has really changed my perception of Vettel.

Yeah he’s matured into a top bloke, he’s one of the good guys.The last couple seasons has really changed my perception of Vettel. I always liked him or at least was indifferent to a lot of the hate he used to receive, but he’s just been fantastic and classy in everything the last few years.
Good question. Would also like to know. Perhaps something to do with the required repairs?Lovely to see Vettel checking on Norris
Why would he have to start from the pit lane why can't he start 10th as he got into this section of qualifying?
he is going to have to change many parts, gearbox for one I would think, that gets a penalty itself.Lovely to see Vettel checking on Norris

It will be new gearbox and probably engine anyway so they could then set the car up for the conditions tomorrow. If it’s wet they can go full wet setup and if it’s dry they can trim the wing so he can overtake.Good question. Would also like to know. Perhaps something to do with the required repairs?
I can’t remember what tech they had 20 years ago, but certainly for years more recently cars had a lot of driver aids like ADS and traction control which they don’t anymore. These things make a huge difference in the wet. I think that might be the main impact along with other rule changes.Is it just me or are the full wet tires worse now than 20 years ago
Yeah. Used to think he was a bit of a tosser but he's really matured since then. This was top class from him.Vettel is really likeable these days.
All makes sense. But what differentiates between a pit lane start and starting at the back of the grid?It will be new gearbox and probably engine anyway so they could then set the car up for the conditions tomorrow. If it’s wet they can go full wet setup and if it’s dry they can trim the wing so he can overtake.
Ah ok that makes sense, probably silly question but could they appeal it as potentially them being late to red flag despite warnings, lead him to have the accident?he is going to have to change many parts, gearbox for one I would think, that gets a penalty itself.
Not a chance in respect of the appeal on timing of red flag I would think.Ah ok that makes sense, probably silly question but could they appeal it as potentially them being late to red flag despite warnings, lead him to have the accident?
It looked far worse from the 3rd party angle rather than on board with Norris. Thank goodness for safety
Hope we get a wet race, but not enough that it's red flagged/ sc start
Isn't he just. He called it in Q3 straight away.Vettel is really likeable these days.
Why would they red flag it? Norris ran wide and then lost it, he wasn't aquaplaning unfortunately.Ah ok that makes sense, probably silly question but could they appeal it as potentially them being late to red flag despite warnings, lead him to have the accident?
Breaking parc ferme I believe so if he’s at the back anyway like I said previously they can change the car setup for the conditions on the day.All makes sense. But what differentiates between a pit lane start and starting at the back of the grid?
No role whatsoever, his car was oversteering as he got into Raidillon.I wonder what role the bump in the track had. Whereabouts on eau rouge is it?
He's one of the last old school drivers who just wants to turn up for the weekend to drive and ignore the rest of the celebrity lifestyle that tends to come with F1.Vettel is really likeable these days.
I think everyone else is on inters as well, apart from GeorgeMerc and Red Bull out on inters !! massive gamble looking at the track, full wts for me, but I am not sat in the car.
