When Ferrari did something innovative 3 years ago and started to win against Mercedes, Mercedes went to FIA and banned Ferrari's innovation.

It is just to find the right loophole in the regulations.

Well yes, but for that i also blame so much Ferrari, because when Mercedes was in his peak RedBull year to year make something to start to cut the gap or something. Now Mercedes its not in his best time like any other cycle in life you cant be always fighting at top, so that responsabilitie realy on Ferrari and they were a piece of shit.

Charles Leclerc has been proposed to have signed a new contract extending his stay at Ferrari for the next five years but with options for the final three if he wants to separate from the Scuderia team in the future.

First reported on Sportune a French publication where all the other F1 media outlets are receiving this news from:
https://www.planetf1.com/news/charles-leclerc-agrees-record-breaking-salary

They have indeed found a secret, in each team they have hundreds of engineers.

In 2 years the gap should be reduced not increased, RBR found a secret the question now is when they others will discover it.

Well, yeah there are certain incidents that surely have happened from that corner in the past and it is common because that was a really tight spot with surely limited space to make a pass, and everything can happen in the heat of the moment when a driver will likely take some risk opportunities into consideration and for sure Max Verstappen also have the same issue in the past but likely everything can surely happen and it is really uncontrollable Carlos Sainz for me just wants to put the blame on someone and being a dickhead,


For sure they can just do something like that and blame it on the other team, from what I have known there is no one to blame at all there are just teams that don't want to be put to be blamed by other teams this is F1 racing after all, and all provocation will surely be done by any team

Well we are on a long break and the teams are surely going to be busy upgrading and maintaining the cars some drivers will surely be doing some practice at the Simulation F1, and some will just take this break and relax a bit for sure,

Yes, but i dont think we are in front of so much mistery, for me its more simple, when Adrian Newey find the key of the car you are done, and i think that its what its happening right now, like other years with RedBull, like when Sebastian Vettel was in there.

with this car and his skill, he can even start as the last one and win the race.

He is getting some shortage of some components but again if he takes 5-10 position of penalty, by purpose in tracks where he can overtake then he can will all the races until the end of the season.


As Hamilton said at the start of the season, this is the most dominant car ever done (and they are just investigating why)

Yes seems like destiny wants to tie that record in that particular track, in his home. But maybe the Pastor Maldonado spirit appear and we see a X driver crashing into Max Verstappen , or maybe the Latifi one, dropping a nonsense safety car from the back of the field.

All other teams are blaming each other for the crash at the start of last weekend's race: Mercedes, Ferrari and Red Bull are pointing fingers at one another for this one.

The next race we will see Max Verstappen to tie Sebastian Vettel's record of winning 9 races in succession and to be doing it at Zandvoort. On the Dutchmen's home track seems to be his destiny at this point.

George Russell will be George Russell and I think as an F1 driver anyone can also become very optimistic for themselves in winning the champions think about it who in the F1 doesn't like to be on the top, but surely as a team player George Russell sometimes will still respect Lewis Hamilton but surely if it's not Lewis Hamilton then he will become a hungry in making a lead for himself,

But for me it is not a good quality for a driver to blame it on another driver like what have happen with the Carlos Sainz and Oscar Piastri fiasco that George Russell was on the back of Piastri, he have said, everyone is blaming it on Oscar Piastri and Sainz also calls Piastri as underexperience with this sort of things which is an attack on Piastri which is not a good impression at all, while Piastri is looking cool and just respecting what have happen with the collision,


Well, yes there are a similar turn incident just like this in the past and Carlos Sainz is talking about it and all of that are rookie mistakes, we can all say that Sainz is really treating the McLaren Driver as a rookie for F1 and he is not wrong about it but he can not make assumptions that it is just Oscar Piastri that is to blame in this incident because it really is two to tango, which is for me both of them is at fault it could be Piastri was optimistic in entering and attacking the side of Sainz, that end up on him making a hole on the side of Sainz Ferrari F1, while Carlos Sainz is also attacking Hamilton on the side but I have seen that there are still a little inch that he could spare for Piastri, that he have seen him on the side as he have said but still lhe keeps on continuing on that path, and Oscar could have stop from getting across and just make a wait for it,

There are surely something thy can do but due to the heat of the race they are not thinking that fast that end up with this collision,

This isn't even the only example at turn 1 here. I remember a couple of incidents happened at this turn in the past also and the same thing happened every time. The driver taking the inside has just nowhere to go and he is squeezed between the car beside him and the wall. But still drivers don't give up on taking their chance there.  

It could have been a really wonderful race for Sainz and Piastri both if they had that turn without problems. But being aggressive can sometimes cause drivers to push their luck unnecessarily much.

Now we have a long break and let's see if there will be teams benefiting from this well and returning stronger.

Clearly, George Russell is in danger of forced eviction from Mercedes just like Sergio Perez to Max Verstappen, George Russell is the Sergio Perez which is why Mercedes can not afford to let loose Lewis Hamilton because of him because Hamilton is still the GOAT when it comes to Mercedes drivers, we can say Russell is just 2nd to Hamilton,

And speaking of that Crash we can see that Carlos Sainz isn't clearing any path to Oscar Piastri at all which Led to Piastri bumping the barrier, which clearly had an impact on George Russel if he is telling the truth and if he's on the back of the McLaren Oscar Piastri's car, well there is no given footage on the highlights and I haven't watched the full race at all, or it has not been taken footage, that is why, Oscar Piastri didn't make it to podium because of Russel,


That was the only angle I have seen on that controversial collision I really think that Oscar Piastri handled it very well while Carlos Sainz is not happy about it and he got a bad impression of Piastri attacking him for being a rookie, and Carlos Sainz didn't take this very lightly and taking the blame to Oscar Piastri, while Piastri's response was very maturely he didn't take the blame on anyone at all and said it was an unavoidable collision but he will review the incident but both drivers can  surely be done a bit more he then added,

In my opinion, Carlos Sainz has said that Piastri has surely taken the inside attacking Lewis Hamilton and him and said it was a very optimistic move, but upon seeing the footage Carlos Sainz was the only one attacking Lewis Hamilton by moving on Piastri's Lane for me Carlos Sainz is just making excuses and taking the blame to Oscar Piastri at that time was just minding his own Business,

It was quite clear to see from this camera angle where he was positioned he had no other route to go.

The WTF1 channel also states what caused him to retire his Mclaren in only the first lap while Sainz went on for nearly another 22 laps after the collision:

George Russel just said that he could have finish on the podium if Oscar didn't have his crash during the start race...and I found this funny because Russel is living in a fantasy when he always has an excuse for his race pace or whatever he does wrong during a race , he is never the guilty one and this type of toxicity will not be good for him in the long run. We clearly saw that Piastri had no other place to go and it was Sainz who crashed into Piastri and then Piastri into the barriers so I really don't know what Russel is trying to say in his press release interview... .

He is getting destroyed by Lewis this year and his performances are nowhere near of what Toto wants from his side so maybe Mick really has a chance to take Russel spot next year. 

I also missed the full race but have already watch the highlights of the race, and in that highlight there is nothing that says how Oscar Piastri didn't not finish the race, and maybe if he doesn't have any problem at all he could surely go to podium for t he 1st time this season, well we all know that Lando Norris already have taken his but yeah RedBull team is really dominating the scores so if this continues and RedBull stays in dominance then Max Verstappen will be champion this season,


This is Oscar Piastri's time last race was Lando Norris for sure McLaren is very proud in what their boy were doing right now landing them in the podium but for sure I surely like how Lando Norris is doing things even though Oscar Piastri have taken the field this time, I really think there  is a certain something about this track that Lando Norris is supressing him to perform well, that is what I think right now, well I am really intrigue about the McLaren team right now although I am a fan of Ferrari, but that was due to Michael Schumacher, 


Oh! I surely forgot about the F1 Academy, maybe because there isn't an available sportsbook for them, well in watching the sports I am pretty much gets bored when there aren't any involved bet or risk that you can pump your heart while watching a game, and F1 Academy doesn't have those,

It was a bummer that we are likely getting a 3-week break after the Belgium Grand Prix until we can see the Heineken Dutch Grand Prix 2023 In the Netherlands for sure this is an opportunity for the engineers to likely upgrade the cars legally this time,

On Oscar Piastri I also didn't see what happened to him, or why he was DNF in the race but he was really doing fine in the Sprint it was a shocker for him to be unlucky in the race, but for sure team McLaren is showing good confidence in the next event and this likely summer break will be a great time to make adjustments and upgrades for their car,

And off to the F1 Academy, they finished their Round 6 on July 29-30 race in France on their Le Castellet on Circuit Paul Ricard, and the race result was again Prema Racing is still in Dominance

In the Belgium Grand Prix, Oscar Piastri really did a great job in Practice 1, Sprint Shootout, and Sprint but sadly he didn't finish the race and was out from it, after doing great in the Sprint it was cut short, and Max Verstappen is still very dominant the whole race,


Sad to say Oscar Piastri really has some talent but I can no say the same he is faster than Lando Norris, because I really think Norris is more clever than Piastri, but in the Belgium Grand Prix because of that clash with a Ferrari he somewhat DNF in the race, which is a bummer to see well, better luck next time for him, for Lando Norris it was really a terrible race for him and he likely must be having bad day on the Belgium GP,

Well, Max Verstappen even though RedBull broke the rules in putting illegal parts it is likely his engineer Gianpiero Lambiase is at fault here, and likely Max Verstappen and Gianpiero Lambiase are sparring on the radio on what to do well I think Max Verstappen doesn't want to order him around for me he got his own technique and decision in making in the race,

Just finished for the mid-season with the drivers going for summer break until the next race in a 25 days.
Missed the beginning of the race so didn't see what happened to Piastri but had witnessed Sainz retiring at lap 23.
Atleast Leclerc made it on the podium and Hamilton showed that Mercedes can still get fastest lap even if he had to put on the mediums right at the end to do it.

Seeing the table for driver's championship after round 13 of the season during the checkered flag post show goes like this:
1. Max Verstappen - 314 points
2. Sergio Perez - 189 points
3. Fernando Alonso - 149 points
4. Lewis Hamilton - 148 points

The season is already Red Bull's at the halfway point as nobody can make up enough points to even come close.

Hamilton is having a hard time with all the other team upgrades back at the start of the season all he was thinking was how does he grab the lead from Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez, then now he is thinking of taking on both the Ferrari when they upgrade their cars, then right now the McLaren and now Aston Martins Fernando Alonzo, it was really not a great time for the British Driver Lewis Hamilton,


It was Oscar Piastry's heartbreak when he heard that it was just 11 milliseconds of him before Max Verstappen got ahead of him, the Sprint Shootout was really heartbreaking for the McLaren and this time it was Oscar Piatri than Lando Norris but this is just on the sprint because the Race result was so much a frustration for the McLaren because it was once again Max Verstappen, at 1st Sergio Perez at the 2nd position and Charles Leclerc on the 3rd position for the Belgium Grand Prix,

They need to move fast on that mudguard for next season, we cant still waiting the rain for cease to race.

Great race from Ricciardo on that Alpha Tauri, he was really near to the points but he cant point at the end because the car gives up, or the tyres.

Tomorrow we are gonna se a great fight between Ferrari, Mercedes and McClaren, Aston MArtin this race its out, we need to see how Alpine its gonna do this race.
