    Commentators of Sky are hilarious in their anti Max flip-flopping.

    Edit: for those not watching this feed. Max complained about people cutting in line when lining up to go on track. Commentators say it’s fine and no reason to complain. Max cuts in line and overtakes car who basically stand still in the pit-exit. Commentators say it’s dangerous and unnecessary. (I suspect because he did it to Russell)

    Edit2: “we’re sorry to say it’s totally within the rules that he did that, but we still think it’s silly and unnecessary” so much copium :'D

    That was quite a mess with 2 red flags.

    Due to lots of rookies getting a try in FP1, lots of drivers only now got a chance on track. And then with the 2 red flags, they only had about the last 10 minutes or so to practise. I guess we’ll see lots of track use tomorrow in FP3.

      This session was a bit of a dud. Kind of makes it seem like a sprintrace weekend without the sprintrace.
