Very enjoyable watch. Exciting to see the McLarens both go by Max. Ferrari getting it all wrong (again). Great also to see Williams getting stronger every race. Was hoping, pre-race, for some rain but glad in the end it didn't come. Overall what a turnaround for McLaren this year - same can be said for Aston Martion (in reverse!).
It wouldn't be a total surprise if Ferrari part company with Hamilton, he's definitely not as fast as he was, he costs a lot of money, and he always seems to be in dispute with team management. Unless theres a big upswing I can't see him being there next year especially if signing Verstappen becomes possible.

If they are too rubbish to handle hamilton no way will they be able to handle verstappen
Aston feels like the perfect case study for chucking money at something for no tangible return.
Signed multiple world champions , so many technical people and Team Principals and built their new factory but with absolutely nothing to show for it. If Newey doesn't produce an absolute rocketship for next season I wonder if the whole team is sold to the Saudis. I genuinely wonder how much Lance Stroll even wants to be on the grid anyway.
Vasseur said that “I can perfectly understand the frustrations of the drivers” but reiterated that he felt “as a team, we did a good job”.
If both your drivers are pissed off then i'd argue it was anything but a good job.
I normally find Fred one of the best and most level headed TPs but that is complete and utter nonsense from him. I wonder how long until Lewis is demanding a new race engineer because this relationship with Ricardo Adami seems doomed. Obviously Bono didn't move for personal reasons but it seems completely fractured throughout.

He gets paid very well to travel the world and drive a car without any pressure of potentially losing his seat. Seems like a great job to me. Might as well milk it for as long as his Dad is interested in owning the team because he'll be gone the minute he isn't.
Doohan is being replaced by Colapinto from Imola, and clearly Oakes feels undermined as he doesn’t agree. Unbelievable that Flav is back, now officially, given Singapore-gate
Meanwhile MBS's stupid idea for the week is scrapping the cost cap.
I wonder if this has anything to do with the other MBS's desire to buy an F1 team and then spending billions of Riyals on said team to win... Surely not!
So the Oliver Oakes story has just taken a massive twist , his brother has been arrested in Dubai with a large amount of cash and charged with " transfering criminal property" , Hitech have had their factory raided at Silverstone too.

I'm sure he had a great meeting with Infantino last week in Miami 😂
