Well he's never been quicker as a whole than Charles to date, and I don't see that changing. As I say, he's a very good driver, but not sure he's elite. Kind of a Coulthard for me.
I'll give this one 5 last before verstappen sails off into the didatance but weather will play a big part. there's too many easy spots on this one. the main stranger here is the track not clearing the danger point that cars can be thrown back on track, not the rain itself they really need to just make a few off track modifications to remove the real dangers.
I think they have to be fair, the Eau Rouge/Radillon complex has had more run-off added and they've re-angled the barriers over the last few years. https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/s...lon-run-off-changes-in-latest-update/7087562/
Well if the poor kid that died had not come back onto the track he would be alive so what more needs to be done?
I don't think they're done with improvements, it's an ongoing process. I think race control takes as much or more blame than the track for that example, for running a 24 car field of inexperienced drivers in conditions far worse than anything F1 would run in, it's a recipe for disaster. If all tracks have to be designed such that cars can't bounce back onto the track at any point, then Monaco, Montreal, Jeddah, Melbourne, Azerbaijan, Miami, Zandvoort, Singapore and Vegas all need reworking too.
the second Hamilton fell off drs with le clerk he was eaten up by verstappen le clerk won't last long and then we will see perez shafted by red bull in the pits.
Too easy for the Red Bulls. This is all too predictable. I’d love to see Hamilton pass Charles for a podium, otherwise not much to get excited about.
sailed by into 2nd. he's miles behind entering straight just a matter now of swapping the cars. anything doing down the track? alonso v Hamilton for 3rd?
le clerk tyres will go off too quickly. I'm just waiting for ferrari to mess up strategy or the car to fall off a cliff.
verstappen just the little gain. didn't push enough trying to figure what to do about rain. let's get ready for ferrari to absolutely mess up this rain
