The FIA should rip up the sporting regs and start again. Every week there’s confusion over the rules. Absolutely pathetic.
Have you been living under a rock?? The FIA threw the regs along with spitting on the record books out the window last year by awarding points without even having a race.

As to Gasly's indignant behavior, what kind of driver that has already collected an errant barrier then drives...

Re: Dish legit just dropped ESPN and every Disney Channel at 3 am

If you live in the USA, watching on F1 TV is a no-brainer IMO. You can watch whenever you want without worrying about recordings, and best of all you don't have to listen to Crofty.

YMMV, but the only way Mercedes don't finish 1st and 2nd here at Spa given the lack of rain, is if they take each other out, are taken out by another or suffer a rare Mercedes failure.

I'm expecting another boring race, unless the crap Pirelli tires spice things up.
