Such a great race thanks to that safety car. Ferrari possibly could've had the 1-3 if they boxed Charles too. I understand his frustration but I was happy to see Sainz demonstrate his confidence and aggression in taking that P1 spot.

its amazing that Ferrari is finding new ways to take victories from Charles.. which helps Max...

Mercs were unexpectedly much better in Silverstone.. though after Lewis had a faster exit than Perez and Leclerc and overtook them.. its amazing that Perez could catch Lewis back after few hundred meters despite having an awful exit.. what a sheer acceleration and top speed Red Bull has.. at least thing were not that for Mercs but still falling back..

The question now becomes if the W13 has anything significant left if Mercedes applied their big upgrade for the season. Red Bull reported that they won't do anything major until after the summer break so that could really release Red Bull to the front of the pack for the remainder of the season. I don't know how much more Ferrari can do given their reliability issues.

I think we'll see some excellent racing for the remainder of the season (if Silverstone was anything to go by), but I still think it's Red Bull's championships to lose.

It's too late for Sainz..
Sainz is already 54 driver points behind MAX .
But Sainz is only 11 driver points behind Charlie ..
I'm pretty sure the fight is on and completely open in the Ferrari team !
And next weekend at Austria they won't listen to the team orders anymore ...
Currently I see Ferrari going in a Suicide Mission !

Suddenly Mercedes is back !
It was a great job from Shalia-Ann Rao ....
And HAM's back pain is forever gone !

Wolff said that he has information about flexible floors ..From who ?
According to the FIA regulations the floor may flex 2 millimeters , but Toto said he knows that some floors from other teams flex 6-8 millimeters !
I'm pretty sure that the FIA will step in soon ...
The new FIA floor regulations will turn in a pure Mercedes advantage !

Seems like it wasn't enough for Toto that he could buy via/with Shalia-Ann Rao the anti-bouncing solution from the FIA for his bouncing 5H1T boxes !

For sure Sainz has no chance but Maranello has a dream...they think
This anti-bounce solution will make no difference even with Rao pushing green buttons for Wolff, the bumpy tracks are coming up and the billiard board Silverstone has gone.

Let's remember that Carlos Sainz snr won the Dakar three times and is a double WRC champion so maybe Ferrari in their way of thinking now want the son of the driver with the more famous name.

Best view yet, this one gets it all. Thank God that car didn't catch fire, no way they would have been able to get him out.

Max in the last lap, deliberately ran MSC off the track and he went off 10ft deep to run him out so far just to retain his point. Also noted or investigated and as ways, Red Bull gets away with it again. Max should have dropped to 8th.

RBs can do what ever they want, rules don’t apply to them with the stewards. They are dirty at their race craft… both amazing drivers, and it’s completely unnecessary as they could win on their own… but Horners dirty driving and dirty tactics covered by solid steward payoffs leave a bad light on the sport… no one else acts like RBs. They cheat because they can and empowered to do so…not because they actually need to.

Just my opinion, others I get love RB. I’m more neutral and it’s so obvious there’s a fix in F1 in RBs favor. They do no wrong and they could flip an F1 coin and it’ll land heads 90% of the time with their “luck”
Going off track and forcing the other driver off happens every single race. You can’t possibly expect the drivers to stay on track at all times considering how fast they’ve going and trying to brake into the corner as late as they can while avoiding each other. I saw nothing wrong with the clash between Charles-Checo-Lewis. Checo going off was a disadvantage to him, letting Lewis behind passing both him and Charles. This isn’t cheating, this is racing and often times there’s contact.

It was unlikely to catch fire as not a solid hit like GRO's was with engine detached and fuel pipes dangling.
