Dirty and dusty

Promoter should have cleaned the track up some, not sure how F1 finds this acceptable.

It looks like it hasn’t been cleaned in two years.

Looks like a possible grid penalty for Lewis. Interesting.

HAM ran too wide , and ran off track . He ignored the run off area , and ran over wrong side .

Yeah , he's called . Let's say for a warning ....

Ham gets a reprimand, apparently it's only his first one of the year according to MFia.

Something to do with 1830 I believe

And so the most divided country of western europe was born

That's for sure and I agree completely .
Belgium doesn't knows what it is , and our Government (actually 3 in 1) is the Muppetshow .
In other words : If you travel through Belgium , you had to speak 3 languages .

At the company it's a mix of English , Flemish ,German ,French and Japanese ..
And finaly my mind has to work like Google-Translate !

Good run from Max to go half second up from Ham and on mediums, so far that rear squat on the Mercs is negligible so FP3 will be interesting.

MAX on mediums . The Merc's on softs .

According to MAX :

It was a pretty good day for us," concludes MAX immediately after the second free practice. "In the first practice the track was still quite dusty, so the feeling in the second practice was automatically a lot better. We still have a few things to look at, but so far it's going well."

It indicates that there must be more in the barrel. "This lap was certainly not perfect yet", that's what MAX already said via the on-board radio after he clocked his fastest time. Personally, there is still room for improvement on Saturday and that also applies to the car, according to MAX. "It's difficult to say exactly how much there is to win, but of course we are never satisfied and always try to improve the car."

Hot rumours going around is that Ham will change PU components at Mexico and take grid penalties.
If that is so then the Merc lump has indeed got a problem using the full boost.

Yeah . Earlier this week I heard that with the so said "2 latest Merc inventions" the Merc's PU runs even hotter now .
And with the upcoming sprint-race in Brazil , the Merc PU has to run even more ..
