Hamilton out.
F1 2023 Season
- Thread starter pauldyson1uk
- Start date
Hamilton being out in Q2 makes the Ferrari vs Merc battle tomorrow abit more spicy after Sainz was out in Q1.
Of course I put Lewis higher than George 
Lewis summarising Merc's entire season there
My predictions are not in a good way
I think it's going to be a case of who's done least shitMy predictions are not in a good way
All resting on Leclerc and Russell's shoulders in Q3. If either of them feck up and dont qualify in the top 4, that's probably their teams chances cooked.
CertainlyI think it's going to be a case of who's done least shit
Here goes another prediction out of window.
Bet he will be glad to see the back of this season. Hope time is not running out for him to get an 8th title.
8 different teams in Q3.
he was fighting the car in S3. Setup mistake?
He will be around till 2026 season minimum.
Russell was faster all day, could have copied his setup if that was it
I've definitely picked wrong for pole
8th, great stuff!
8th, great stuff!
Why would you pick anyone but Max for pole?
My only consolation
At least we were both equally dumb
Max was toiling away, should have known he'd turn it aroundUrgh that AM just pulled out in front of Charles watch it cause a yellow flag given how this weekend is going...
Don't know how Charles pulled that time.
Perez
Almost Leclerc!
Argh 2nd!
Beautiful stuff Charles.
Another qualy shocker from Sergio, what a surprise

When does CH have enough of Perez? Hes fired people very easily before...
That board radio between Horner and Max
Norris did well not to totally bin that
anthony davidson said so on the skypad. But agree russell has been better all weekend.
Perez man, even with his deleted track time he's just not good enough, at least make it competitive and stay within couple of hundreds of your teammate.
imagine if it were leclerc in that other redbull.....
Think the only thing keeping him in that seat as has been rumored is an iron clad contract brought about by the massive sponsorship money he brings in. He basically has the direct support of the world's richest man. I don't want to call Checo a for pay driver because he clearly earned a lot of it on the track - but it probably is what extended his stay.
Max's insane consistency is ironically keeping some of the pressure of him imho because he basically never has to pick up the scraps and can continue to plug away without any real impact on the WDC or even WCC.
Should be fun at least to see what Sainz and Hamilton and Perez do from their starting positions. Lots of opportunity to overtake at Abu Dhabi I guess.
Didn't know Musk cared about F1 let alone Perez
Qualifying team-mate head-to-head battle. Albon demolishes Sargeant.
Fair play to Hulk on his first year back too
You know what I meant. Carlos Slim for a while was the richest man in the world and is still one of them.
Yeah definitely. The Merc one caught me off guard. I mean, I watch all the qualifying but I just assumed that Hamilton was in front by a few. I think the fact that he's doing well in the championship led me to believe that he's easily beating Russell.
Credit to Russell I guess.
They’ve been very even in quali, and that’s how I recalled it to be honest. But Hamilton has been the better / more consistent driver in the race.
Sargeant is such a waste of a seat.
That's some terrible graphic design.
Absolutely, very interesting and above all entertaining.
