Russell is a british driver, driving for a not so good car (probably second worst car) and the race is on silverstone with nearly all british fans. It was expected that they would cheer for Hamilton, but to cheer for Russell wasn't really a weird situation neither, it is basically a given. However dude finished like 8th or something with the second worst car, by calculation the average expected of him is 17th, why? Because the other car is latifi at 18th and then worst cars 19th mick and 20th mazepin.

Anything above that shows that dude is doing better than expected for the car he is given. However I have to say Williams is a great qualifying car, it is not as good of a race car. I feel like dude will hang tight in silverstone for a few laps at the best but I do not think that he will be racing for too long at those positions, he will once again be lower than points positions.

I very much agree with this statement.

Russell is just magical. The fact that he finished within the top 10 with a less-superior car shows his raw talent and skill on the racing field. I am kinda doubtful as to whether he should stay in Williams or to go to another team with a champion-contender car. I really do think that he'll have an opportunity soon to prove that he can definitely stay at the podium.

I ended up jinxing him lol, he has 3 places grid penalty and will start 12th place if I am not wrong. Williams is a mercedes junior car, and that means Mercedes basically already holds his contract and raised him so much, I doubt that they will let him go that easily.

Bottas and Merc already has a lot of troubles this year, it is looking like they are going to have their differences come out public eventually and in that situation Merc could just hire Russel the moment they want, remember last year? He raced in the Mercedes car and was doing so good as well for a while. Long story short he will move to Mercedes soon and take Bottas' place, it could be either sometime inside the season when everything boils over, or it could be at the end of the season but I do not see Bottas staying for too long which leaves the door open for George to take over.

So I've been waiting to pull the trigger on Hamilton win, but the odds actually kept getting lower and lower -- and then this special came for him to win AND get fastest lap at 4/1 on Sportsbet.

Of course, that's my money in;) I mean, he's got to try and close the gap right guys?

Bottas tricked me last one, so if he actually wins this today, I'll be gutted to have missed 12/1;)

Tomorrow race should be a good one , right ? Lewis told after the Sprint Race that tomorrow he will bring his A game and also hopes for a good response from the fans. I do also think that Max has the necessary pace to keep that distance but start of the race should do the difference.

What is your opinion after the first Sprint Race in F1 history ? Personally I loved the first 7-8 laps when the action was hot with multiples cars fighting for positions.

Upon watching the qualifying rounds for the British Grand Prix, I was very happy to see Russell qualify within the top 10. It was very magical and fulfilling to hear the crowd roar upon Russel's qualification in his spot!

Even with the oversteer made by Hamilton, he still managed to take the number 1 spot just a few milliseconds away of Verstappen snatching his victory. We could see that in Hamilton's performance, he is really hungry to win another title!

Watching the end of the practice race 3, Max is in the top spot with ferrari in 2nd and 3rd.
Russell is 11th so not to far from his spot in the qualifying which is good for williams race team going into tomorrow's race.

It is certainly great to hear the crowd on the british race grounds again.

Temporary forum vacation

Hamilton should be able to break the form of the main favorite but I wonder if we have another surprise coming,,, when the specials come out I bet we can see like Bottas had a special last one and he actually finished second! But of course that was a lot behind so I had no problems considering making this also +12 seconds for the last question:)

Silverstone so far has always been for Mercedes or Ferrari so I think it will remain the same.

I am in favor for a Mercedes win at Silverstone.
As Max had his victory at Red Bull so it would be fitting Lewis to have victory on his home ground as well. Wink

Talking about the upcoming race, it is featured in the latest episode of the Braking Point series released just as I finished posting about the story mode game by a F1 youtube personality.
Which is infact part of the game, as one of the tweets when you visit the socials aspect of the game. Cheesy

^ Yup... And Russell to snatch a points finish and Norris to be in the Podium. It’s their home race. It can’t end any better than that.

But I really do feel like Russell could push it a tad more and get a points finish. It’s at 2.25 at Stake rn. Not sure how much at the other books. Norris top 3 at 3.8. Value?

I do have a feeling that Lewis will snatch this victory and the points. If Max wins, I think we can already call the season off and make Max the champion as I simply don't see him losing the points anymore for the rest of the season.

Silverstone so far has always been for Mercedes or Ferrari so I think it will remain the same.

We saw a really interesting race today. I mean that Verstappen wasn't very interesting as he won the race too easily. But the real competition was in behind rows. We've watched a really nice competition among Ricciardo, Sainz, Leclerc and Perez. The damage on the Hamilton's car was really unfortunate for him that he had to give up his place to Bottas as he wasn't able to keep up with Verstappen. Norris also passed him and Hamilton pitted after it. He tried to close the gap but it was nearly impossible and he finished as the 4th. We've seen many time penalties in this race also. For example, Norris just killed Perez's race while he was defending him and got a 5 sec penalty for that.

I'm really happy for Bottas and Norris both. They really needed a podium and they got what they wanted.

Anyone heard the news that Crypto.com is now Formula 1 inaugural global partner of the F1 Sprint series, and they are continue to spend money on promoting their business and crypto:

No, but I've surely seen their banner over the race at Red Bull Ring. I am not into crypto.com and one important reason is the huge amount of investors' money they've spent on the domain, but it's still a nice feeling to see that banner at such an important event. And since many more will come because of the Sprint series, even better!

Max did a flawless race, but I didn't really enjoy it because of so the many penalties (and the stupid errors that caused those penalties too, obviously).

Did notice that rather big blue banner just above the track while watching the qualifying round yesterday.
So expect to see it during the main race which starts in about 35-40 minutes from now.

Still have time to put in a wager on the winner today.
Hamilton is @5.50x after finishing in the top 5 in yesterday's round while Max the man of the qualification is @1.34
So as expected after those practice/qualifying runs the odds did shift. Wink

It must be a small preview surprise because they say in the link they will start their partnership at the next Grand Prix

Quote

with the first event at Silverstone on Saturday July 17th, at the Formula 1 Pirelli British Grand Prix.

and they will launch a new award at the end of August

Quote

will begin at the Belgian Grand Prix where we will present a brand new award.

Besides that, I've placed a small dozen of bets on this Grand Prix but I think those 3 ones could be interesting IMO.

H2H Mick Schumacher VS Nikita Mazepin : Mazepin @4.30
H2H Pierre Gasly VS Yuki Tsunoda : Tsunoda @3.35
H2H Kimi Raikkonen VS Antonio Giovinazzi : Giovinazzi @2.15
