I have George Russell on a list of a probable champion in the future. Remains to be seen what he will do. 
P8 for Piastri. Oh dear.
Lando on pole, so that will probably settle the World Championship question at McLaren.
However, Max is only P5, and with the Ferraris ahead of him, it will be difficult to move up

P3 is the best place to start on this race with the long straight to the first corner, so we wil see what Lewis can do for us tomorrow
Ferrari is generally not acting very good with the strategy, so could be easier than you think for Max to move up. 
The only thing you can be certain of is that a Ferrari does not win.
that will be P7
Sainz still has a 5 place gridpenalty from the last race in Austin

In addition, the odd-numbered starting positions have better grip. And Lewis could be a good slipstream provider for Max. Only if Lando gets off to a clean start, although we have seen Lando have very poor starts before, will it be difficult to beat Lando.

I had overlooked that, but the momentum is not on Oscar’s side at the moment. He said the car had lost pace. That’s why I believe he will not have an easy time in the race.

Anything is possible, especially with the new regs next year, as it’ll be a level playing field again.

Haven’t seen the quali yet, but if that’s true, which I don’t doubt. McLaren are starting to fiddle the cars, so Norris gets the perfect car.
Red Bull did that with Vettel & Webber, as Vettel’s car hardly ever failed, but Webber’s would struggle.
The only thing that hampered Max, was that stupid bump at turn 9, his car was more affected than the other teams. It’s just a case of luck now if Max can turn 5th place into a podium or a win.
Who is leading the drivers championship now? :)
Lando, one point ahead of Oscar, 36 points on Max

Kind of had that basic feeling before I asked. That was why I asked. Actually.
