Does Max start ahead of Perez or behind Perez after the penalty is applied? Give me your predictions.

If he starts behind Perez and puts the car in the podium position, the meltdown from Horner and Marko will be something worth watching.

Perez is gonna bin it in Eau Rouge and will need a pit lane start

Does Max start ahead of Perez or behind Perez after the penalty is applied?

Most logically is that Max is still ahead. So I'll go with behind Perez, because else it would be too damn clear how bad the situation is.

the meltdown from Horner and Marko will be something worth watching.

Aren't those two divided on which driver their prefer? Also, Horner tried to get rid of Marko, no?

That's what makes it entertaining. Horner will have to defend him in media and Marko is not going to hold back. Hoping that Marko keeps the comments about Perez on his performance issues rather than his ethnicity or place of birth.

Also, Horner tried to get rid of Marko, no?

In my opinion: Marko (probably) will question Horner's decision(s) (in public? I don't think Marko will be that bold) regarding drivers to weaken Horner and get some of power back in Red Bull org.
