With two events at the same circuit on successive weekends, I can't really see a different result this weekend.

Max and Red Bull dominated the event and I expect them to do the same again.
The Mercedes duo are a bit behind the eight ball and there hasn't been enough time to find a solution.
Sergio Perez has been consistent this season and slowly getting better. He may split Hamo and Bottas and finish third.
Lando Norris would have to be the class act so far this season. He extracts every last bit out of his McLaren.
Ferrari were solid at the Styria event and should do well.
The rest is a lottery.

Sebastian Vettel incurred the wrath of the stewards for impeding Fernando Alonso at the end of Q2 and was handed a 3 place grid penalty.
This will move George Russell, Lance Stroll and Carlos Sainz all up 1 grid spot for the start of the race.
