Good luck

I'm going out on a limb and expecting Lewis Hamilton and Mercedes to introduce an additional power unit into their pool.
Due to this, I expect Max Verstappen to finish on the top step and Lewis Hamilton to finish in the 10.

Your Pick
Winner: Max Verstappen
Second: Valtteri Bottas
Third: Lando Norris
Fourth: Carlos Sainz
Fifth: Daniel Ricciardo
Sixth: Lewis Hamilton
Seventh: Sergio Perez
Eighth: Charles Leclerc
Ninth: Pierre Gasly
Tenth: Fernando Alonso
Pole: Max Verstappen

Once Again, CM Lean and I are in general agreement.

1. Max is sand-bagging in the Friday Practice. With the new engine he'll be unstopable.
2 Lewis will be chasing him as usual, but unless he's as incredibly lucky like last week, he settle for second. He's not a seven time WDC because he's reckless with reality.
3. and I'm picking Perez to make the podium a statement
4. Lando will just miss making it and he'll be pusing the secomd Red Bull all day
5. LeClerc will, I believe, relax a little and re-take the lead driver at Ferrari role finally
6, Old Fox Alonso will just miss the top five
7. Daniel Ricciardo will struggle with this track and get his old stand-by place
8. Carlos Sainz has to be in the top ten and may well be even higher... but he's not usually lucky
9. Esteban Ocon will put the other Alpine in the top ten this time I think and we'll all have to pay more attention to them.
10. Pierre Gasly using Honda power may well be much closer to the top five, but I just didn't have any room for them before tenth.
The Pole will be Max's in a walk. If, of course, he doesn't push himself too hard and let Lewis have it.

Should be a good show. I am hoping for a dry race, but this time of year, who knows?

Great picks Jim.
I was thinking that the Alpine's had peaked and were on the decline however, following qualifying, they are very much on the pace!
And Lewis scrambling back to 2nd, a brave call but, following the last round in Sochi, it has been proved that anything is possible!

Congratulations to the winners of the Round of Turkey '21
