What are your thoughts on today's race?
What a disappointing Sunday for the Alfa Romeos, I was so looking forward for them to capitalize. 😬
Post-race show saying that Ocon's seat snapped in half from the collision with his teammate. Wow.
Are Aston Martin back to be a midfield team again? There last races see lackluster compared to the beginning of the season.
What a brilliant first lap from Piastri. Aggressive, precise, clean. I hadn't paid too much attention to him this year, but it's starting to look like he has the promise of a successful F1 career.
I still have my doubts. His race craft is good for sure, but his race pace isn't quite up to snuff yet.
Hopefully it comes with age and experience, but I just have this nagging feeling he'll never get to WDC pace material. Think Sainz to Leclerc's, or Bottas to Lewis.
Yeah probably not a future WDC. Sainz and Bottas are successful drivers in my book though. And we've had a fair amount of underperforming rookies these past years so seeing Piastri fighting near the front and keeping out of trouble is pretty cool.
I thought Danny Ric had a good race given the start. Managed to maintain position on the mediums. Aston’s and Ferraris continue to feel a bit invisible. Congrats to Redbull for the record, deserve it.
A very incident filled race start. Alfa literally threw away the best thing to happen to them all season and ruined other drivers races to boot. RUS must be chuffed that it created a massive opportunity for him and he took full advantage of it. I think we are going to see Zhou in a PSA about texting and driving.
Weekend Warm-up Pundit Prediction Performance
| Pundit | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | Points |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Alex | Max | Lewis | Charles | 2 |
| Laura | Max | Lewis | Sergio | 4 |
| Sam | Max | Fernando | Charles | 2 |
Ignoring Max, Laura's the only one to make any accurate predictions after Checo's improved performance. Ferrari being Ferrari is detrimental to Alex and Sam.
| Pundit (appearances) | Points | Average |
|---|---|---|
| Laura (9) | 25 | 2.78 |
| Lawrence (8) | 19 | 2.38 |
| Jolyon (3) | 13 | 4.33 |
| Will (6) | 9 | 1.50 |
| Rosanna (2) | 8 | 4.00 |
| Alex (2) | 6 | 3.00 |
| Sam (2) | 4 | 2.00 |
| James (1) | 4 | 4.00 |
Laura increases her lead as we head to Belgium for the last race before summer break.
I keep wondering what channels these pundits are from. I have no idea who any of these people are.
F1TV. They are really quite a good team, I always enjoy putting the pre-weekend show on in the background.
I was kind of underwhelmed by todays race. There were some sparse interesting moments. Feel like we missed multiple due to cameras being elsewhere.
Good to see McLaren competitive.
This kind of used to be the norm at Hungaroring until we had a few years of rain and it being one of the few places Merc's PU wasn't super effective. It's not really a great track for racing.
Mercedes was slow car in the beginning but came into its own in the end. But a little too late in the race for anything.
At the start it looked like carrying too much weight, couldn't accelerate, couldn't turn.
Very good race, sad the alpine didn't make out of the 1st lap. Very happy to see Checo's recovery. Awesome job from the McLaren boys. Let's keep it up!
