Poll: French Grand Prix 2018, Le Castellet - Race 8/21

[muon]

Leclerc impresses again.

Wet conditions always evens the cars up a bit and the best drivers can shine.

Dry again though.

 

[Flibster]

It's unlikely he's be any higher up than 10th, so why waste the tyres? Also gives them more flexability in the race where the points are awarded.

It makes sense why he is not taking part, but it's bad for the sport when a driver would rather skip a session than go on track.

 

[Flibster]

Hamilton 0.25 up in S1 on any other S1

 

[MooMoo444]

Kimi is nowhere, waste of a seat!

 

[Flibster]

Aaaaand there goes Grosjean...

 

[muon]

Lol Grosjean.

I'm sure he'll blame the rain.

 

[MooMoo444]

Now Grosjean is out, Leclerc can put a joke time in and be P9

 

[Flibster]

Kimi is nowhere, waste of a seat!

What about Grosjean, still yet to score, just him and Sirotkin on 0 points.

To be fair to Grosjean, Ericcson keeps hitting him

 

[Junglist]

I always thought Grosjean was good when he raced with Lotus. Maybe the car flattered him

 

[Psycho Ned]

Must have found about the only place on this circuit to hit something, the runoffs about a mile wide everywhere else!

 

[Flibster]

Currently best theoretical lap time with the 3 purples is 1:29.853

Doesn’t he get a free set of tyres in Q3? I thought that’s what they said in commentary. He’ll probably just run at the end.

 

[Flibster]

Leclerc is on track.

 

[timmeh]

He needs to so he starts ahead of fat John

 

[Flibster]

2 dodgy sectors, then a stonking S3 and hamilton takes Pole....

My comment was "where the **** did that come from?"

 

[muon]

Mighty final sectors from both Mercedes there.

 

[MooMoo444]

Bang, Merc front row been a while

 

[Flibster]

Leclerc is P8!
