Mercedes already struggling again this week. Hamilton and Bottas were P7 and P10 in FP1, and currently both are outside Top 10 in FP2.

Very strange but enjoyable.

I don't imagine Hamilton will stay quiet too long if this continues...

He's already voiced his displeasure today. Another race like Monaco and it could be interesting to see how he reacts.

So I still am pretty new to the sport and don't understand everything but I heard them talk about budgets during Monaco and apparently there is thought they maybe used all their budget up in the prior couple years trying to stay ahead and other teams deferred and maybe are putting more money to these "new" cars...?

This is easily the biggest challenge Mercedes and its two drivers has faced in years. This weekend could be a huge turning point in the entire season. However, if anyone knows how to respond to adversity, it's Mercedes.

Singapore GP cancelled...rumors that they may race a double-header in Austin over two weekends.

Blood bath Q1 session so far. Stroll and Gio crash causing red flags to session. Many cars unable to record times yet. Merc could be in danger of missing out on Q2 or Q3.

It will be interesting to see if Norris gets a grid penalty for his red flag violation. It was very close between being able to pit or keep going.

Q2 ends with Danny Ric crash. Both Mercs will advance to Q3.

Surprise of the day. Alpha Tauri puts both cars into Q3 with Tsunoda making P4.

Pretty annoying that's 2 races in a row that Leclerc is competitive all quali to get discounted by the announcers all of Q3 because of red flags. It's definitely good luck and has assured his pole twice now but it's not like he hasn't been in the top three for Q1,2, and 3 there

That quali sucked.

I'm hoping that's not a preview for a painful race.

Agree. Seems like a course with potential but man they have a hard time with some of those turns.

Turns with zero forgiveness.

Agree it looks like it could be really fun. But I don't want to watch a race with 3+ red flags.

Would've been safety cars in a race, for the most part. Red flags in quali to stop the clock

Really hoping Verstappen can get ahead of Hamilton from 3. These red flags ending Q3 are pretty unfair. Verstappen would have had a good shot at pole. Now he could lose the driver's championship because Tsunoda crashed in qualifying. BS.

AND - Bottas continues to take it in the shorts from Merc. BS.

Doh. Of course. I had bit of tunnel vision.

And there's the safety car.
That was a big hit, glad he's ok.

Huge. And Lance was completely with it the whole time - you can see he was immediately working to keep the car to the side as much as possible. That's pretty amazing.

Finally able to see what it's like with Hamilton vs the two Red Bull's up top instead of the usual Verstappen vs two Mercs.

Also looking like Bottas might not even get top 10...yikes
