Formula 1

[AmandaRose]

So after a very busy day I finally got round to watching todays race. First of the season that I have been unable to watch live.

I nearly cried for poor George when he crashed he looked so sad when he was sat at the side of the track.

Great race by Valtteri considering his car was badly damaged for pretty much the whole race.

Another bad day for my favourite team McLaren but thankfully they are only 1 point behind third place in the constructors.

And as for Lance Stroll I said last week he isn't good enough for Formula 1 and he showed it again. He is a danger to all around him and his team need to get rid of him or FIA need to ban him before he kills someone.

A few Notes on the Imola Weekend:

- It seems,Hamilton´s further Career maybe depends on Toto Wolff´s Future "Decisions"
If Wolff leaves,Hamilton will follow....
if youhave watched the Interviews from both this Weekend,there are "maybe" a few "Hints" for this..
- Many People wonder: why always Vettel have "Mistakes"...
Quite normal,when you look at Ferraris Formula 1 History (Berger,Räikkönen,Alboreto,Arnoux...)
A "departing" Ferrari Pilot has always the "not so good" Ending....
- Youngest Formula 1 World Champion - Max Verstappen is now out of the "Race"..in both Ways.
...and guess who was/is still the Youngest ? Correct,Vettel.

My predictions

Toto will stay and Lewis will take a holiday next year and come back for the new rule changes in 2022. George Russell will replace Lewis for 2021 and stay on when Lewis returns. Valtteri will leave at the end of 2021.
