Silverstone in two weeks with quali on Friday and Sprint quali Saturday with two races in the fold..and more wear on the equipment.
Hammy's been told the 12's getting one or upgrades by Wolf but unlikely to be much to catch up with that jacked LWB rear end.

Victorious

Yup. And that's assuming Red Bull isn't doing much adjustments. So Sliverstone is going to be telling. Championship could well be determined in Silverstone.

Negative . The Red Bull 16-B is improving in every single race .
Today the car ran even better than in Austria 1 .
Max lifted his right foot half way through the race....

I'm sure , Kimi has a garage . Not sure if he saw it coming ...

I guess in and around the Ardennes there is an entrapment of extreme weather, the vids you showed were shocking of peoples houses and possessions damaged by fierce weather conditions and even now well into the summer.

Dominant race by Max!

So is ALO washed up already or what?

I'm at 15-20 min. from the Belgian Ardennes . Depends of the traffic and my right foot as well..

Francorchamps is +/- 45 min. 2 years ago my record time during a night was 32 min. with my ///M .
My passenger was screaming for help...Adrenaline overdose and knees were shaking !

My ///M loves it over there !

Indeed . The climate change is real . We've never seen that before ! The Belgian Ardennes are been hit by 2 Supercell Tornados (twisters) !
Canada has 50°C ! Last year I've seen over here 42°C in the shade ...
Crazy !

I think the opposite, ALO is progressing. Outperformed Ocon by a country mile this weekend. Would have been in Q3 had Seb not been pulling through the drive thru.

Battle between ALO and RUS at the end of the race was great stuff.

George just can't quite get that point, poor dude. But won't be long until he's getting a bundle every race, isn't that right, Toto.

I would have called ZERO penalties on NOR and PER. You're not entitled to a car's width on the exit of every turn. What's the driver on the inside supposed to do with all of his apex speed, hit the brakes?

There is some truth to this.
NOR had to deviate from the racing line.
I think it comes down to wheter PER had already (partly) passed NOR or not.

Absolutely agree with you with ALO. Great to see he has not lost his magic.

Great battle with Russell and obviously very hard but you can see the high respect between the two, unlike the tussles Perez was involved in.
