Norris, Sainz and Russell qualify 1-2-3 for Russian Grand Prix
(1/1)
Jericoke:
We thought this year would be another Mercedes cake walk. Or that the only story would be a showdown between Hamilton and Verstappen.
Instead, we're seeing a resurgence of 'the big three' teams. Ferrari, McLaren and especially Williams have been almost comically incompetent in the turbo hybrid era, and yet here they are qualifying 1-2-3.
Sure the rain helped, and Hamilton getting lost on his way to the pits helped out too, but it was a solid performance from cars/drivers that I certainly didn't expect in March of 2021.
I'm glad the back half of 2021 is more surprises than predictable.
dd:
What will be suprising will be the relationship between Ham's march to the front compared to the "reverse back markers" marching through mid-field. Should be an interesting race, hopefully not punctuated by too many error related incidents which would serve to cause an inadvertant win by a "less than superior" driver.
