Of course I placed both Ferraris low because their practices were so bad
They'll still be dogshit in the race and finish out of the top 5.

They'll still be dogshit in the race and finish out of the top 5.
what on earth is going on in Q3 after the first runs?
Yeah so weird with Ferrari suddenly popping up. Perhaps drop in temp is a factor? Also I am thinking on the first run some used used tires.
Perez slower than Ricciardo unless he was using old tyres again?
what the bleeping feck just happened?
dont forget 3 drivers under investigation
russell going too slow
hamilton going too fast
verstappen not going at all
russell going too slow
hamilton going too fast

How is Ricci putting that Tauri 4th ?
does anyone know if RB ran the upgraded floors in qually or switch back to the texas GP floors?
ahead of perez as well. in mexico
Haha Viva la Danny Ricc.
Hugs and kisses to all South Americans from Australia.

If anyone predicted that pole they should be given the yellow cap for that alone
Bizarre qualifying. Most people’s first runs in each session seemed stronger than their second
Sergant, Tsunoda and Alonso under investigation as well.
So thats six drivers now.
Plus Williams team for leaving equipment in the pitlane in the way of other cars.

Stewards found a great restaurant in Mexico City apparently.
Charles has got to get his elbows out tomorrow. No more goody two shoes
Is Alonso under investigation for deliberately spinning to get into q2?
No grid penalties for anyone.
He ll have to bc u know Max is going to bomb into T1 as he always does. Those two seem to always have great battles. Though as per usual there doesn't seem to be a reason for RB to not take the patient approach.

Just saw the highlights. Ferrari!!!! (small victories). Fully expect them to go backwards in the race tomorrow.
Leclerc's first lap in Q3 was mega!
How on earth did Hamilton and Seargent avoid a penalty for running full speed on yellow flags?

Sargeant got a 10 place grid penalty for overtaking Tsunoda under yellows.
And nothing for Hamilton, really?
No, stewards said they said the data showed he slowed sufficiently compared to his previous lap.
I mean, he was running at full speed up until corner 2. But anyway, maybe better for the race that he is up there.
Great laps by Danny Ricciardo. Someone at his team said he's back to his best but I wasn't expecting that.
He explained afterwards. The AT has a tendancy to oversteer which suits his driving style and gives him confidence to attack the corners. Unlike at Mclaren where the car understeered and it affected his confidence attacking corners. He never managed to get to the bottom of that issue at Mclaren, which reflects poorly on them.
As an aside, seeing as Riccardo likes a car that oversteers and so does verstappen, surely Riccardo would be the better driver to be in the RB than Perez (who prefers the car to understeer).
Yeah that makes sense.
Yes hopefully he does get a drive at Red Bull soon, the car should suit him well and F1 fans get something better to watch. Vettel had some good battles with Webber, some teams won't want to take points off their main driver but I think RB can bring him in now.
I wish the race started now. The football is making me depressed 
Did not last to the end of the match, hoping the race will be better, but I doubt it.I wish the race started now. The football is making me depressed
Yeah, I turned it off sometime in the second half.
Oh I don't know, it's nice to see the Ferrari's up there. Interested to see if they can maintain it in the race. I mean, I doubt it because it's Ferrari, but who knows. The tyre deg will probably kill them. Also, Danny Ric in 4th!
Expect Max to win as RB is normally setup for Race rather than qually and is better on its tyres.
However the track temps will play a major part in who gets their tyres into the right window.
Also the Mercedes are abit of a unknown, they could be much better, later in the GP on later on.
But ideally a first corner crash takes out the top six apart from danny ric, who goes on to win the GP

Has there been any update on all the drivers who potentially had a penalty?
Hope it's an exciting race to erase the memory of the football

Yes, only Sargeant got a penalty (drops 10 grid places). Everyone else didn’t get penalised and starts where they qualified.
Dany taking out Checo, and then win the race?Expect Max to win as RB is normally setup for Race rather than qually and is better on its tyres.

I actually dreamt Perez had a crash on the first lap and got beached in gravel....
Hopefully after a cheeky little nudge from a certain Auzzie.
I've put Perez 2nd in the prediction... He's been banned from the podium the last few races but I think it'll be a RB 1-2 unfortunately as Lando is at the back, Ferrari's tyres won't last
Ferrari will feck up, they always do.
Expect a Max win with maybe Lando second, Mercedes I don’t have a clue , they blow more hot and cold than United do, but only 3/10th behind pole.
Heat will kill the tyres.
