Respect for HAM's driver skills . But without the Mercs PU, Mercs DAS and Mercs wheel/tire cooling *Inventions* ect... He would be nowhere.

To be honest I feel some hate for Ferrari and Binotto, regarding the 2019 Ferrari strawberry smell !
Mate I love strawberry ice cream But as you know that's not cheating...

How do you know for a fact that their power gains weren’t from off season? They’ve been developing the 2020 package since summer 2019.

bad news.. Perez is Covid19 positive...
this will risk a lot of people as well since there is a 2 week period prior..

Mate of course , Merc has found *IT*
As you know *IT* gives you a 20 km/h higher topspeed !

On the other hand : Ferrari found last year also something like a *IT*

Wish we could see George Russell in the RP this weekend but it won’t happen.

RB will be trying out 'many' new parts for Silverstone to try and lessen the gap between themselves and the black cars.

I must admit it gives me great pleasure seeing a worried Wolff and we just need Hamilton getting confused by his steering wheel red dots at the starting gate

My friend,even Wolff has a shelf life limit looking on the edge like he does, he must have some stress reducing treatment in his Merc camp for sure.

Looks like Hulkenberg will be in car 11 on condition of an all clear Covid test.

Toto is worried with a 20 km/h faster car ...Give me a break !

My friend I'm pretty sure he's worried for something else ..

If he doesn't get his full 20km/h extra then he'll get fidgety being the perfectionist he is.,(and of course worrying the RB 16 will cut the air cleaner than theirs). The W11's are suited for the long curves of Silverstone but we're in for a heatwave for the weekend being 30C on Saturday.

Why rain? So Ham can gap everyone by over a second in qualifying again?

Talk is Hulkenberg will be tagged to take over for Perez.

Weather prognosis can change, currently going to rain on Monday but I'm banking that the 16's aero mods will bring it level more with it's superior air management.

Ideally we need 38C for race day, the hotter it is the more worry for Merc for it to mess with their jet-mode
Good night!
