Toto was right, Red Bull is clearly the fastest car.
I wish people would pick up on the team principals toying with them and playing the media gossip / echo machine to create story lines.

Looked like the right side of the track was lacking grip on the start. Based on the wheel spin, Valteri may need to aim for 1st or 3rd on qualifying to get him on the left side of the track. Same story with the half wet track a few weeks ago.

Verstappen complaining about tyres. D.Croft then states ‘but interestingly the tyre graphic’ :lol: :lol:

They had one result due to that.

Max almost had a tire go at Silverstone Rd 1.

Also, Mercedes has the ability to learn and they typically never repeat their mistakes.

It reiterates the point that the talking heads have little idea of what they are talking about.

That is what Toto wants you to believe 🤔

He needs to calm down or only bad things will happen.

If it was Hamilton everyone would just criticise him for whinging.

Maybe some would but not me.

IMHO Verstappen is right. RedBull seem too busy looking elsewhere. When the driver is telling you their tyres are screwed when they don’t generally you had probably better listen.

Some decent racing in the midfield! Or should I say between Lando and Charles.

He wasn't. If they pitted at the time he wanted they'd come out behind RP, thus gifting bottas P2. He should stick to driving.

I agree with you. They all whinge at times, they are all feisty at times. They are all calm at times. People tend to forget only the juicy bits are broadcast.
