They think a Puncture....really bad,but he is ok.

He thinks it was his own fault. He said on the team radio sorry I fucked up.

I personally think it was a puncture and not his fault.

The old Layout from the 80´s/90´s was the coolest in Silverstone.

McLaren seems in a very good Mood today.


Funny,how the Cars today are really susceptible for a "Mailüfterl" (very low wind...)

I remember Zandvoort in the 70´s...THAT was windy on the Track..

Grosjean is gonna get himself disqualified if he keeps doing illegal blocks.

Max would have won had redbull not fucked up and done an unnecessary pitstop

 

[Alexander1970]

Max would have won had redbull not fucked up and done an unnecessary pitstop

He had also the white Tyres,so maybe he suffered the same "fate" like the Mercedes and Sainz....


The Pirelli Guy runs away from the Cameras..

[Alexander1970]

What I do not understand,all is talking about the "dramatic and unique" Last Laps and Final this Year in Silverstone....

Almost forgot 2017 ?
Exactly the same Final Laps.....

And even Red Bull did it also the same Way,getting Max into the Pits as yesterday....



And NOBODY mentioned it yesterday....


This Society today is so "forgetable"....

The Door for Vettel to Mercedes is finally closed as it seems

Bottas stays until 2021

Mercedes extended the contract with Bottas by at least one year until the end of the F1 season 2021.

"I am very proud to represent this fantastic team and the Mercedes star on our common journey next year," said Bottas, who still has a clear goal in mind: "Since I started Formula 1 as a child in love, it was my dream to become world champion one day.
This year I'm going for the title and by staying with Mercedes I will be in the best possible position to fight for it next year. "


Toto Wolff:

"We will announce the wedding soon. Mercedes, myself, Lewis and Valtteri.
Basically it's a foursome that we have there.
That is what we would like to do. There is no reason to dissolve us, ”said Wolff at Silverstone.
A clear commitment to his current drivers. No trace of emigration thoughts.

"Don't worry at all"
He is not worried about Lewis Hamilton either. “Because we trust each other and have basically had the same contract for seven years. We just have to get it out of the drawer and read what's inside.
Ultimately, it's about the commercial terms. But we always quickly came to an agreement. I'm not worried at all. "

Friday will be the Day of two Decisions for our Pink Friends:

- Perez Quarantine is over now - who drives the Racing Point ?
- the Judgment from the Renault Protests (3 in total)

Red Bull,Ferrari and Mercedes also made a little "Pressure" in the last Days
for an Statement/Judgment because to get "Clarity"

 

[Alexander1970]

Racing Point got the Bill...

Racing Point sums up a heavy penalty

Shortly before the first practice session for the second Grand Prix at Silverstone, Racing Point received the bill for allegedly illegal car parts. The International Automobile Federation (FIA) accepted the protests brought in by Renault at the races in Styria, Hungary and the first guest appearance at Silverstone and sentenced the racing team to a 400,000 euro fine and the deduction of 15 points in the constructors' championship.

The FIA judgment specifically refers to the use of the cars in the Styrian Grand Prix in Spielberg, which were piloted by Sergio Perez (6th) and Lance Stroll (7th). Racing Point receives a fine of 200,000 euros each for using the two cars; 7.5 points are deducted for each car used. Renault protested a total of three times, after the second race in Spielberg also after the Grand Prix of Hungary and that of Great Britain. However, the FIA left it with a warning for the last two races mentioned.

The French works team Renault had complained that several components, in particular the brake ventilation of the Racing Point cars, were forbidden copies of the parts that Mercedes had used the previous year. The FIA had to decide whether Racing Point's approach is covered by the rules, which according to the judgment is not the case.

Protest announced

Billionaire Lawrence Stroll's racing team, which will compete as Aston Martin next year, has always admitted a resemblance, but has denied the exact copy of the Mercedes parts. Racing Point, which sources its engines from Mercedes, had already stated in advance that it would raise an objection if convicted.


And for the Second Driver:
In the run-up to the races in England - after the Grand Prix of Great Britain, the race for the 70th anniversary of Formula 1 is on the program this Sunday (3.10 p.m., live in ORF1) - Racing Point also had the first positive corona virus case of a driver to fight. Perez had to be replaced by Nico Hulkenberg. After the Mexican tested positive again, the German is also on duty this time. A week ago, at Hülkenberg, the clutch went on strike before the start.
