    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

- Should be an interesting start with Max and Charles.
- Renault uprising.
- Gasly vs Vettel?
- 'Hulk' on the grid with only 4hrs notification!
 
Due to the low temperatures the race will be unpredictable (if any F1 race can really be unpredictable). During qualifying you already saw the team were struggling with this. Lewis could easily have qualified for Q1 on the medium tire. But they choose to do this with the soft one as a strategy which involves the white harder tyre will most probably not work with these temperatures.
Low temperatures and therefore less grip during the start might cause problems. The soon forbidden DAS system as used on the mecedesses will help them to heat up their tyres.

Max came very close to the Mecedesses during qualifying. Normally this means he can keep close during the race. Hopefully Max and Charles will realise that the race is longer than just the first lap. When they survive the first lap the Red Bull is normally the much faster car.

Congrats to Lewis for tying the record. Bad luck for Bottas and good luck for Hass scoring their very first point this season.
 
Be aware that the Hulk is driving a Mercedes 2019 replica and Seb a 2020 Ferrari replica with a lawn mower engine in the back.

Cheers,
