Anyone else online? Hoping that Perez is OK after that nasty-looking crash. |

Hi SG, Yes that was a nasty exit he made there. Same place and way like Rosberg exited this morning, but Perez here with much larger impact on the barrier. Reminds us that this is still a dangerous sport despite whatever safety precautions. First report suggest though Perez is conscious and talking.

Hamilton didn't set a time yet here in Q3. With only 2:26 remaining when they open up for quali, it will be a challenge for him. |

Hi P1 What a relief that he's concious. Same place Coulthard & JB crashed in the past, as well as Nico this morning. Wonder if Quali will carry on? |

You see Charlie Whiting right now on the phone. If Perez is 'surviving' they will restart as soon as the barrier is fixed. |

Looked like he might have had a problem because he was out of the car. Was rather hoping to see a Macca on pole today. |

Hi. I am also here but a tad under the weather. Was celebrating the sale of my house in the Philippines yesterday. Too much cheap booze I am afraid. Looks like Perez will be ok, but for sure not racing for at least tomorrow. Not good for Hamilton or Rosberg, |

It seems every once in a while a team blows it by leaving that first lap too late. sometimes it rains, sometimes a red flag but whatever, there was no excuse for Mclaren to leave it so late for Hamilton to set a time. Given that it takes a while for the tyres to heat up, you need two flying laps to set a great time. So, instead of perhaps being on pole or the front row, Hamilton is now potentially starting in 9th and at best 7th. |
