    Hoping to see Ferrari back on the top step. Merc has seemed to find something or just turn it up. Lewis has seemed to have some more than Valtteri (or the team has given him more) but Seb and Kimi both had some bad luck in GB. Praying that Merc doesn't pull out and we can continue the battle between the Silver Arrows and Prancing Horses like we did the first half of the season. Sad that it's summer break after this tho

    Redbull should be competitive here as should Ferrari. Looking forward to what the thug Vettel will come up with.

    Yeah they're going with Ferrari. Which means McLaren's only engine options next year are:

    - Staying with Honda. *groan*
    - Going with Renault---but only if Toro Rosso decides to roll the dice on Honda and frees up the French engine maker to supply another team.

    Frankly at this point I'm more interested in what Alonso's going to do than what McLaren is.

    I have a hunch that Mclaren will most likely stay with Honda for next year.

    The way I was seeing it, Sauber literally couldn't be any farther back and they would get the financial boost from being the "factory" Honda effort. Maybe McLaren won't dump them?

    Let's see how Verstappen moves over for Hamilton, or will he fight like he does Vettel?

    LOL at British media making the narrative all about Ferrari's pace and basically Hamilton being a victim of 'unfairly having inferior equipment'!!! Oh the irony!!

    Then there's the Shamilton fan club crying about this all being a fix, his car being sabotaged. Hmm, wait but does that also mean that Shamilton's Merc was the only sabotaged one since Bottas drove so much better? Bottomless stupidity is such great entertainment!

    always, the Brotherhood cries sabotage and favoritism when Bottas does better than Hamilton.

    I have to admit that I really wouldn't have ever thought that Ferrari could out-qualify them for almost the whole season, let alone immediately at the next race!!! Unbelievable after Merc being completely in another league last race!

    I like how Ricciardo has kept on saying that he's going to go so ape-s**t tomorrow, absolutely full rampage-mode that there'll be a backlash afterwards...I can't wait to see what he's planning to do.

    This is a track that suits Ferrari more than Merc though. Pity there's more tracks that suit Merc over the season.

    I do think that Merc have gone with an understeery type setup so as make the rears last longer (it's a rear limited track) but I also think that they just didn't manage to get the setup they really like. This kinda was proved to me by Bottas beating Lewlew (I think he's a better driver of a compromised car and Lewlew is very hard on his tires when he's not in the lead). The understeer was pretty bad on the mercs - they really don't look good on turn in. Perhaps (I hope) Merc isn't able to switch on the front tires as they'd like (i.e. setup issues rather than a setup aimed towards race pace - making the rears last longer).

    Regardless, hoping Ferrari and Seb can pick up a great points haul tomorrow.

    This Thug Vettel deserves at least 2 race suspension for sneaking late nights in the Merc garage to upset their cars, and Lewlew's especially bad. Either this or Russia based Finn hackers managed to install stuxnet in the Merc's supercomputer

    Why the F@££$$∞∞£$∞ do they give penalties for incidents between teammates??? And after they've specifically said that they won't give penalties easily, and not for 'racing incidents'!!?? Oh wait, but of course: the penalty gives Hamilton the position so that's why...

    - - - Updated - - -

    Is Bottas backing Verstappen into Hamilton? Or is Mercedes so much slower, almost 1 second per lap???

    Aaalright, Alonso has something actually resembling a car! Nice passes! (Still time for the engine to blow up though, knock on wood...)
