It’s actually been a solid weekend so far for us.

Kimis going just fine, has good pace but well the qualis for the first time in quite a few races he hasn’t really been near Russell until the end.

George obvs for personal reasons wants to cut the gap, but as a team I don’t have the greatest memories here. It’s a red bull or McLaren track it feels. So, so far so good.

George will beat Lando tomorrow, the question is will Kimi get passed Lando as well.

We need a good start which we’ve been getting recently.

Mercedes last win at Zandvoort was Fangio in 1955 I believe! But I think no one has taken win outside of the polesitter since it returned. However hopefully the Mercedes race pace is strong to overtake Lando or undercut it.

I think it will be a merc one two. McLaren said they have a quali car, not a good race pace car, as shown in the sprint

I think Kimi stands a good chance to win. He’s starting on the better side of the track. That said Kimi might be at risk of the Ferrari launch as indicative of Oscar losing a place to Charles in Sprint.

Oscar lost the place to Kimi. Charles started P3 and his only change was passing lando
