There is a big rumor that Williams wants Fernando Alonso for the next season. Lance Stroll need an old-timer alongside to get better. But will be Williams better team for Alonso than McLaren? William is weaker and weaker now. Every team has some improvements, but it seems like in Williams they are doing something wrong.

Alonso will definitely leave McLaren for sure. Team that are rumored to be for him besides Wiliams are Reno and Mercedes. Dont know how he will be in Mercedes cuz he left McLaren last time due to fight with Lewis. This one is hard to back up, for other teams think that its very possible reason they have better engine and the car from current McLaren one. This is hard for Alonso seeing him so only cuz power unit when down twice in last two races, must say this is frustrating to the rooftop.

Still he announced that he will say after next race what he will do will he stay in Formula 1 or leave. It would be shame to see him leave but think he is also considering to go in INDY championship cuz he almost won INDY 500 he lead most of the race but engine blow up.

Head to head between Hamilton and Vettel (only 7 points) , now Bottas(-41 points) seems definitely out of the games and finally can also help his teammate.

Perfect race from Hamilton and I win the H2H bet against Vettel however thanks to the inexperience of Bottas and not a needed safety car I lost the H2H bet of Bottas against Raikkonen. A not so beautiful race to watch with Alonso complaining all the time about a shameful Honda engine which didn't have power today. Moto GP starting in about 18 minutes from now.

Hamilton is making the competition excting again, it was getting boring with Vettel's domination, and I was starting to feel like it was over, but Hamilton is getting closer to Vetel again.

You judge the season as boring already? This is one of the closest fights for the driver's championship we have in years. There is clearly no domination by Sebastian or Lewis this year.

If they continue to try to surpass one another then the driver's champion might be decided in the last race of the season.

Yes maybe it was too early to say Vettel was clearly dominating, there's still time to keep it tight until the end, but I still think Vettel will win and Hamilton will be able to overtake him.

Alonso is probably going to compete again next year in Indy 500 because at this rate he isn't going to be able to compete for the championship unless he gets a better car, so he will not care to miss another race.

Have Merc already renewed Bottas' contract? Because if they haven't, we could see this young guy in a Silver Arrow.

Yes please! It would be a good move for Mercedes as Hamilton will retire within 5 years or so.

Slava Ukraini!

Collision between Perez and Occon made this race very interesting. It's strange to see team friends fighting each other in this way on mostly GP's of this season. Ricciardo performed amazing after restart and he is lucky again - 3rd place is great result for Red Bull. But Verstappen didn't finished again. Alonso didn't finished also - nothing new.
Vettel had only one chance to overtake Hamilton and he was very close to do it. Anyway, he still have 7 pts lead. And it looks that Ferrari can fight with Mercedes in tracks, where Silver Arrows should have bigger advantage.

Oh and of course, we had to see Alonso's curse continue. It is unfortunate to see him break so many motors. He must have a world record of breaking motors at this point. He needs to get a better card next year or just retire, he should be fighting for the championship but he can't due having a shitty car each year.

i like races where in podium are three teams. gratz to hamilton. vettel has no chance today. i am disappointed with bottas' race today. on the other hand, nice overtake from ricciardo after safety car has left. craziness in force india team. two collisions in one race between both ocon and perez is impossible.

My prediction for the race, Sebastian will pit earlier than Lewis and do an undercut taking the fresher tire advantage and get some quick times. By the time Lewis pits and gets out, Sebastian will still hold 1st place.

This weekend will be interesting in both F1 and MotoGP. Formula might be just another race with Mercedes and Ferrari battle for pole and win, dont think that Red Bull can made something here they might fight for third place at the end. In motoGP it will be very interesting cuz Marquez crashed and broke main bike, but still with this he was good expect to see possible rain in both races, but most interesting will be in Spa if there is rain or comes to be wet track before start.

It is also a good opportunity for us bettors to make some easy profit. Normally at a track like SPA which more than 65% is run at full throttle I have bet on both Mercedes to come ahead of both Ferraris in the qualifying round today which has just started. Odds were 1.44 for Bottas and 1.48 for Hamilton. I hope I can win these because of the track suiting more Mercedes rather than Ferrari.

Good news for Ferrari, after Raikkonen also Vettel has officially renewed for Ferrari until 2020!
The team is now focused on winning the championship with Vettel!

At Spa Felipe Massa crushed in Fp1!
Massa hit the barrier hard, causing significant damage to the left side of his FW40. He probably will not run this weekend!

Meanwhile in the fp2 record of track for Hamilton 1.44.753 but it seems that Bottas,Ferrari and Red Bull can improve this time!

@mnixxo. That is good news. Now let us hope that Honda could provide a good engine for the team next season. I reckon Fernando Alonso is willing to give it 1 more year at McClaren only if he could see any improvements in their car's performance from now until the end of this season.

I also hope for better engine Honda could provide for the next season. I dont see any alternative for fernando alonso. only stay in McLaren for the next season or not to race next season.

One more information. McLaren have confirmed that Stoffel Vandoorne will remain a McLaren driver in 2018. I am very curious what will become of Fernando Alonso.
