Another race with strange decisions from FIA but also Alpha Tauri who released a danger car back on the circuit who clearly favored Max to win the race ...or at least this is how I view this race and this is not the F1 I love and it all started in Abu Dhabi last year.

Great race from Mercedes but also Perez. Ferrari once again with a lot of fails during the race with strategies and Alonso and Ocon who both got points and the gap between McLaren and Alpine is increasing in favor of Alpine.

Man its a shaming move what pass with Tsunoda, its impossible to say this was not making to give the win to Max in his home race, Verstappen can be 5 seconds behind the Mercedes and with that he comes 12 seconds ahead with better tyres, its really to investigate, and punish Alpha Tauri and Tsunoda, because ohhh casualty they are the sister team of RB.

I was put a 1/2 for Mercedes so imagine how piseed off im.

It was not Tsunoda,it was Bottas fault that made the Safety Car come in which then changed everything from how things were.I think this was a beautiful race after all,of course it would have been more difficult for Verstappen if no Safety Car was in as that was the event that gave the advantage to Verstappen but overall it was a very well deserved win for him and Redbull.When you compare him and his team mate it looks like they race for different teams in terms of quality.

I made 14 points when I was expecting like 10 or so,I am 4th this round but I am happy and congrats to Cls63 for another yellow cap which I think is also the record points for a race in this pool.

Eh, I thought I was gonna have a bad day when my Dutch pick did badly in testing and then yeah, still ended up getting pole! Missed the race (football, what else?) but seems like the expected happened. Pole and win good for me to stay in touch with you leaders but Ferrari 1-2 didn't happen, so I still more or less maintain my pool position.

Hammie podium also almost happened, damn.

Left out my Tsunoda and was wise to do so...

So it means I finally got right the pole position as I put Leclerc into it and after the penalties for Verstappen he will most likely start first as I don't think he is in need for other changes after doing all the needed changes during the Belgium race.For tomorrow though I have put of course a Verstappen win which it will be extremely difficult considering the fastest lap of the track of 1.10.3 which shows this is a really short track,I know we will have a lot of laps more than in Belgium but still this track does not instill the confidence for me that any driver can go from P14 to P1 that easily.

Very interestingly, this has turned out to be wrong.

I mean that Verstappen hasn't got any grid penalty so he is starting the race in pole position. So I'm afraid both of us failed to predict the winner of the pole position as I also thought it would be Leclerc. Grin

However my choice for the winner is Verstappen. So I might predict it correctly unless he has extra problems after the gearbox. He was so fast in qualifying today that he managed to leave Leclerc behind right before the end. Things might have been different if Leclerc had a good lap then but let's see what we will see in the race. Leclerc might not be slow against him this time.

I think it is not interestingly wrong,it is just that I read the news that Redbull team members in an interview said that Verstappen will not get any penalty because when rules were changed in the middle of the season,so it was the number of gearboxes to be changed before getting a penalty so that is why Verstappen did not get a penalty for today starting grid.

I also have in as a winner of the race but I guess I have all other drivers wrong seeing the starting grid,I was confused from the possible penalty and I made choices accordingly to that.Now I need a lot of rain and a lot of safety cars deployed in order to get some points.

So a lot to be different for tomorrow qualifying as Max Verstappen will start again from the back because of penalty given to change the gearbox with which he had problems in today practice.If that was not enough to cast more doubts on who will be on pole tomorrow rain forecast is another thing we should worry because it is forecast to be so,not with a high percent but it is.I think in such situation Leclerc should take profit in order to restart his winnings way by getting the pole tomorrow and in a track like this one very short compared to Belgium he should be able to hold onto it.

Whatever happens Saturday on Sunday it is predicted to be an extremely good race to watch because of the above events.

After the unexpected gearbox problem it looks like Verstappen is going for this once again. We will see if Leclerc will also have any issue that will require some change in the car. If he doesn't then he is going to have a huge advantage for sure. But I still can't be sure of anything about the winner after watching Verstappen's incredible speed in the Belgian GP. I expect nothing different in his home GP as well. Ferrari will need to keep a solid pace here. They were so slow in the last race that even Mercedes were quicker than them. This is the biggest chance for Leclerc to win and collect the most points in a race for the team.

Summer break wasn't any help for Ferrari as it seems. Because they were really weak in this race against Verstappen and Perez both. They were even slower than Russell which was even more embarrassing for them. Ferrari can't be slower than Mercedes now. Maybe Leclerc had some problems with his car but Sainz also struggled too much. Now Perez has also left Leclerc behind in the driver standings. Leclerc was going to fight for the title with a fast car but he is far away from that point at the moment. Ferrari's bad calls played a big role in this during the season.

Congrats @Ulven for winning the yellow cap this week!

Nothing could have stopped RedBull and Max today from taking the victory and I think even if he was on the last place on the grid , he would have need only a few extra laps in order to get on 1st so yea ...RedBull did an outstanding job during the summer break and if someone had doubts about title battle , I think after this race the doubts are gone. Ferrari kinda did it again but on a lower note as RedBull was unstoppable no matter what strategy Ferrari had.

I didnt notice that also.

Well a big big thanks to the Ferrari team to make me lose this round, i had put Leclerc 5 and Alonso 6, and this idiot people make another mistake and take a nonsense 5 second penalty making after the race Leclerc 6 and Alonso 5 , cant believe this team.

Verstappen this race was out of this world.

I think Verstappen and Redbull more specifically were on another planet in this race,even Perez who started yet from another nap and completely distracted at the start of the race,later put in the effort and came second.I am doing the same from like the last 8-9 races,I am consistently in second place in the pool but this week didn't saw any change in positions because many people did not expect Hamilton and the McLaren-s out of the points zone.Personally I didn't expect Vettel on the points zone during this race that is for sure considering how bad the Aston Martin is,it is thanks to his driving skills to be there and it is a shame he will leave F1 in the end of this season.

Congrats to Ulven for the Yellow Cap.

I got the EBP plus I believe Verstappen will give me a point for the Pole he scored although he will start in the back of the grid together with many other drivers like Leclerc,Norris and some others because of penalties.

Actually it isn't like that. I assume that you haven't noticed this information:

This means that you should take grid penalties into consideration as well before picking the driver to start in pole position.

Qualifying session was really nice. Verstappen had a great lap time in Q3 even though he wasn't going to be able to win the pole position. Sainz used this chance really good and he is starting in pole position tomorrow. This might not be a good race for Ferrari maybe as Leclerc is starting way behind. But Sainz has a good chance to win if he doesn't have big issues. Perez can finish right behind him as I picked in the pool also. Their times in qualifying weren't too far from each other. Unless Verstappen deals with some problems there is no way Leclerc is closing the gap with him significantly.

I really dont have clue in the picks to put this weekend, i dont know, the free practice dont give to us so much information, so i put some picks thinking i changing them tomorrow after FP3, but i dont know if i can see them so maybe the selections i made now have to remain the same.

I got the EBP plus I believe Verstappen will give me a point for the Pole he scored although he will start in the back of the grid together with many other drivers like Leclerc,Norris and some others because of penalties.Last time 7 drivers will have to start from the back has been in 2019 where 8 drivers got penalties.I am leaving the predictions as I put them as I didn't knew Max would get penalty grid together with the others,I am leaving it as is,whatever points I got from tomorrow race I will be happy.

Redbull was from another planet today as both cars performed better,much better than any other car on the qualifying today.

Bad news have come from Leclerc's side. He is starting at the back of the grid just Verstappen because both of them have changed their engines. It's not a big deal for Verstappen as he is very comfortable in the championship run. However it is bad for Leclerc because this was a big chance for him to catch up with Verstappen a little more. I don't expect them to be far away from each other at the end of this race. Maybe I'm dreaming but there is still a chance for Leclerc to win this somehow. This is F1 in the end and you never know what happens during the race. Grin

I still can't remember a great example for this. Hamilton was at the last position before the sprint race in Brazil last season. But he was the winner of the race despite every problem he faced. Maybe it is time for Leclerc to do a similar job. Grin

Yes its one of the best tracks in the calendar, also this year its most important because we dont had race the last season, for the heavy rain.
I dont have favorites because i dont know how much the teams improves in this break.

Yes finally the weekend of the race is near us and I predict that this time around we are going to see a great race full of emotions.I would like to see Ferrari winning in this track as most probably they have now the fastest car allround and this track is a good allrounder track where fast speed turns make it as good as it is,in such turns I see Ferrari having the best aerodynamics so in theory they should be favorites here.We can only hope that the team directors of Ferrari don't screw up again with their unwell thought strategies which have been common in ruining Leclerc races during this season.

Have you checked out Sportsbet.io's brand new Formula 1 prediction contest? I assume the number of events in this field also increases as the interest in motorsports rises on the forum. First the pool and later prediction. Despite the odds, I think that Leclerc will win at the weekend as long as he doesn't have any accident.

Sportsbet.io 🏎️🏁 Belgian Grand Prix 🏁🏎️ Prediction Contest (August 26)

Leclerc is going for @4.20x to win the race just by checking the odds.
But one can not go by the odds alone as you well know with the reds match yesterday.
But you are very confident in Ferrari red taking all races over weekend with putting him to win everythin in your predictions for the contest.
Hope your right but I am thinking of another red but the Krating Daeng to take Belgium.

We are so accustomed to watching Formula 1 in the recent years that we really feel empty in these breaks. I hope that Mercedes have recovered more and Ferrari have handled the durability issues in this huge break.
