So what are your predictions?
Last year of course we saw a lot of rain, something that can always happen in the Netherlands. I still think it's astonishing how Mercedes won the last race at Spa, ditching their upgrades, and getting a 1-2 with 2 cars on completely different strategies (yes I know, RUS got DQ'ed, but I think that 1,5kg wouldn't have made any difference). Spa also showed that the cars are now at the same point that they were in 2021, where dirty air is now so influential again that it makes overtaking almost impossible (the whole reason F1 went to ground effect cars). Zandvoort of course is fairly difficult to overtake so both qualifying and strategy is extra important. Zandvoort is very much an 'old school' circuit. My prediction: 1. PIA 2. VER 3. HAM 4. NOR 5. RUS 6. LEC 7. ALO 8. SAI 9. TSU 10. STR

Definitely MAX for the win, 'home' GP, Orange Army force and with no PU penalties with a worked on car over the break.
2.LEC 3. RUS 4. NOR 5. HAM Some may be due a DNF sticking with the same PU's. |

And the Frenchman Pierre Waché s@cks . His RB20 upgrade package was a downgrade... C.Horner caused the collapse of the Red Bull Team (!) In other words : The situation looks really bad ...

McLaren will likely remain as a favorite while waiting to see what the other teams and upgrades do.
Mercedes bringing the upgrade they originally had for Spa but removed because of a separate technical issue, who knows what that will do. Red Bull needs to do something with development, seems like they're trending the same as Ferrari with upgrades not doing much. Ferrari is said to start bringing some big upgrades after the break, but like Red Bull, who knows if it will provide any real benefit. |

Not really sure why with Newey still at MK with the RB17. My thoughts are that if Wache screwed the car he's no good and ought to walk, AN should be invited back to the next building to fix the anomaly on the race cars.

She was not the victim ,her goal was to disrupt the Red Bull Team . Horner was the victim of the situation and the cause that he couldn't keep the team together. According to the judicial psychiatrists , the lady is sick in her head ... It was a great job from a female fool to get $1Million for blackmailing...

If Jos is still ringing Toto up and possibly going to see him then it sure is getting a little amusing. https://www.planetf1.com/news/aston-...cedes-interest |

For his sake and RB's sake, I'd love to see him turn things around for the Dutch GP. I think he'll still slot in the top 10, but he really needs to be top 5 every race. My thoughts: Nor Ham Ver Pia Sai Rus Per Lec Alb Hul |

With silly money being banded about and moves predicted with drivers and team support staff traditional fans are being priced out of attending F1 and being replaced by different kinds of younger well off followers who ignore they are getting a raw deal with ticket prices e.g. for BGP apparently going up nearly two fold or even more since the last race.

She had already visited Brackly before she accused Horner, if anyone was the victim it was innocent Horner himself.

China has 1 race. India has none. Germany has none (25% of the USA population)
So 3 races is quite a lot. And there is a race in montreal (so pretty much on the border), and one in Mexico. And there is only 1 american team and 1 driver.

Germany is geographically closer to 8 different European races than I am located to the closest US race in Vegas. Europe is just different... Montreal is pretty cheap. Mexico is nearly as expensive as Miami/Vegas and a lot of people in this country have been fear mongered to think that they'll be killed if they step foot in Mexico. |
