A few weeks back I recollect the owner of William's team saying as of now their finances are in good shape & for them now having 2 good drivers is the priority. I still don't see any team being happy to throw away money sorting out contract disputes. Depends how much money. How much does a team lik...

The last race before the summer break. An important race for a few who still have to be confirmed for next year. Getting a new contract during the summer break would be the target for those.

I know it's tight but wonder if we can squeeze Hulk into the equation. Even at Williams with a Bottas would be a good lineup. He has said if in'22 he's overseen, he'll quit hoping for a return to F1.

Just read on a social media post Mercedes wish to get Nyck De Vries alongside Latifi in Williams. I thought that's where Bottas was going to go. If Bottas stays put then where does Russell go?

Some good stuff for a change. Here is Seb who after the race helped up pick trash from the stands. Marvellous guy....

Max's pit radio after the crash. Sounds scary as he does sound dazed or winded after the huge impact.

The crash from a different view:

UnlikeUday

Max's & Lewis' incident could've even passed off as a racing incident but I wonder due to the severity of the crash, they deemed a 10-second penalty was justified?

UnlikeUday

Checo could've scored 2 points for himself but sportingly played the team game by taking away 1 point from Hamilton's points tally.

UnlikeUday

I'm baffled why Checo was made to pit on hards to mediums on lap 19?????????

My British Grand Prix prediction:

1. Max Verstappen
2. Lewis Hamilton
3. Valtteri Bottas
4. Sergio Perez
5. Lando Norris
6. Charles Leclerc
7. Pierre Gasly
8. Carlos Sainz
9. Daniel Ricciardo
10. Fernando Alonso

0+18+25+0+18+10+0+15+10+12= 108

For me,

Leclerc, Hamilton & Norris

Would the stewards be under pressure to penalize Hamilton at his home race?

Max left enough space for Hamilton but it was impossible for Hamilton to meet the apex due to the trajectory because of the high speed & due to the closeness of Max's car.

Probably Hamilton should've backed out but he knows he acing Max, his main competitor & probably the toughest guy to overtake.

Thank God Max's car didn't flip.

Will we see clean battles between both of them again?

All starting on mediums except Checo who's on hards.

Gasly summed up yesterday's sprint race quite well - trying to keep on the track for 17 laps.

Regarding RB deliberately retiring Perez to be able to make changes to his car - I'm sure I've seen other teams do this as well earlier. From that back on the grid, progress isn't easy always. As per rules, retiring allows making minor changes. It's like giving someone who's starting at the back som...

Slimmer rear wing on Checo's car to help him achieve more speed.

RB will make Perez start from the pit lane as they've made changes to the rear wing assembly, changes to suspension setup & cooling system of the brakes. Also, he gets a new energy store & control electronics. https://www.motorsportweek.com/2021/07/18/perez-set-for-pit-lane-start-after-multiple-car-...

Something ironical - at the end of Q1, Hamilton was 1st but Max won yesterday so he gets pole. The whole logic behind this fiasco must be a head-scratcher too for Hamilton.

As the sprint progressed, there wasn't any excitement as I knew there wouldn't be a winner or a podium ceremony. Apart from Alonso's driving, nothing else seemed exciting.

This format can be chucked in a hurry even before Monza.

The softs remained good all the way. Strangely, Hamilton's & Verstappen'smediums were blistering.

UnlikeUday

Merc want Bottas to get a rocket start & keep Max behind whereas Lewis drives away into the distance for the win. Sorry, I meant pole.........

Bottas starting on softs. Brave......

Best thing is with the raft of upgrades installed on Mercedes for this race, they expect to claw in only .100 of Red Bull's advantage. Really? We all should know by now whatever we see in practice sessions when it comes to Rb & Merc is just a tip of the iceberg. They never display all their cards so...

The medium tyre overall seems the best tyre. Norris' best time was on mediums which is 0.001secs faster than Hamilton's. However, there was some graining on Hamilton's front right medium tyre in a span of 10 laps or so.

I'm enjoying the panic. Only a solitary 1-hour session to set the car up for Sprint qualy.
