and Hülkenberg could replace Gasly at RBR.
Nothing confirmed yet, though.

Why did McLaren put Norris on yellows?

 

[Kiante]

Hulk has gotten torched by Riccardo so far, I doubt he's anything spectacular in a Red Bull. Better than Gasly, but eh I'm done with the Hulk hype train.

If Ric didn't get the penalty from France, he would be well ahead of him.

I respect Lawerence Stroll for saving Force India (Racing Point). It was needed or they were going to close up shop. Stroll even caught up on the debt owed, much respect for saving the legacy of Jordan.

But I’m not sure his son is very good at racing.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I just want Vettel and Ferrari to kick everyone’s ass. I don’t know if that’s ever going to happen

 

[Kiante]

But I’m not sure his son is very good.

Lance isn't bad by any stretch, but its his qualifying pace I have an issue with. He's got fantastic racecraft and his race pace is decent, but I expected more than what I have been shown so far. I expected him to be very close to Perez, but Perez is a very well-rounded driver for the I give him credit for. I was not a fan of his at first, but he's grown on me. He's much better than I expected years ago.

Hasn’t Sergio beaten him every week this year? I thought it wasn’t close

Pretty much, I thought it was the tires that made Perez stronger than what he was years ago... Man, I was wrong, I was really wrong. His pace never jumped off the page during his Sauber and McLaren, but he's gotten better with time.

At least half of the spectators are from Holland...

 

[Kiante]

Wow, I'm not sure what to think if this move. It might work, it might not for Vettel.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Galaxy brain Ferrari.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Hell Max could win this thing. He is flying

 

[FLRacingFan]

At least half of the spectators are from Holland...

Dutch GP next year is going to be insane.

 

[Kiante]

Oh ****.

No, I hope Max doesn't lose power like this. He's been absolutely sublime today.

 

[FLRacingFan]

This is concerning.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Dutch GP next year is going to be insane.

Remember when Vettel crashed at Hockenheim last year and everyone on the stands was cheering...

I'm sure Max can hear his fans right now.

 

[Kiante]

This is concerning.

Seems like Leclerc might have to wait another race.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

"Pierre Gasly could get lapped"

 

[donthaveanickname]

I'm thrilled... And it's an F1 race

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

I need a Vettel vs Verstappen Championship Title Fight in my future.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Seems like Leclerc might have to wait another race.

Kiante no

 

[Kiante]

Lewis not finishing on a podium possibly?

Man, its been a while since we seen this.

 

[Kiante]

Kiante no

"Guys were close to winning a race!"

Ferrari strategist:

 

[FLRacingFan]

Gasly's gonna get lapped by his teammate...oof.

 

[donthaveanickname]

Come on, Charles!!!!

 

[FLRacingFan]

Leave me alone.

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

Max losing power. Unreal.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Oh my gawwwwd

 

[donthaveanickname]

Oh, dammit

 

[FLRacingFan]

No question about it, I am ready to get hurt again.

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Being a Ferrari fan is literally the most depressing thing ever

 

[Get That 88 Up There !!]

Verstappen screwed himself out of a possible win

 

[Jorge De Guzman]

That was sick. Verstappen is a bad man

 

[donthaveanickname]

For me, there is no doubt that Charles will be a world champion one day, but Verstappen was on a mission today, even lapping his teammate.
Charles will get that first win at some point this season, Hockenheim could be a good chance.

And folks, first win for Honda since the comeback!

 

[Kiante]

Just goes to show what Red Bull needed for a mad chassis. A good and more potent engine, they are able to conserve tires more than the Ferrari. The Ferrari had the engine power, but the issue is they lack in the aero and even with the increased power... Lack the needed downforce, its all for not IMO.

Honda should be proud of themselves for not giving up throughout this period. They got the right team and have improved the engine ten fold. Great to see.

 

[Greg]

I knew Max wouldn't make a clean pass.

 

[donthaveanickname]

I knew Max wouldn't make a clean pass.

Nothing wrong about it, IMO.
Charles left the door open and turned down on Max when he rejoined the track.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Totally forgot the fact that this was Honda’s first win since coming back. Good for them, it’s been a journey for sure.

Best Grand Prix in a while
