Just watched FP2...the Pink Mercs look legit fast. Perez was 3rd and of course who knows what mapping/fuel load they were running, but they did look quick. Quite a few teams looking like they may have some potential reliability issues with the front wing. I think Sky had 3 or 4 teams getting damage at T6. Renault and Danny Ric also had a good performance, P5.
RBR didnt have a great session on single lap pace and Latifi was 2.8s behind and 1s behind Russell. I really want him to do will since I have an unhealthy dislike of Stroll, lol.
@DFO Sky talked to Christian Horner during FP2 and he said they (or someone) was likely to protest during FP instead of after Qualy or the Race. Just said it was more fair. I think they clearly have there own system ready to go, but may not want to run it for reliability/performance/safety.
Loving the Black Merc livery and the little bit I saw of Alpha Tauri and Williams.
Havent had a chance to look at the long run performance, Sky said RBR was quite a bit better, but will see when they run FP3.
