Lewis to start the race on a set of used softs... Interesting - I wonder if Mercedes think they'll see better overall performance from a set that were gently scrubbed in rather than a set that were immediately hammered with qualifying pace.
Not seeing the relevance - he was comfortably through on his new tyre time and could easily have abandoned the lap, it seems a deliberate choice to finish the lap and make the scrubbed tyres the race tyres.Or they had to do that as that car just isn't a quick as the RB...
What happened to Norris? Crap Q3 time for him, significantly slower than Q1 and Q2
