    Let it rain, Pirelli has a color for all conditions except snow. If it rains I believe even Merc & R Bull will get wet too. We have Seb!!

    these two weeks felt like months, guess its that way when there is utter disappointment in the last race, mercs have new rear wing changes similar to ferrari and some new brake aero too, someone mentioned something about their rear suspension but not sure. I saw they got a similar air intake gadget like ferrari for the camera blocker part too lol.

    I hope ferrari's rear wing update can help the team catch up again in the aero department especially in race trim needs

    if kimi isnt going to change to help seb from here on, can kiss both championships goodbye, mercs are in no position to bother with risks and will dominating with team orders and seb will be risking every race to beat ham/kimi/bot so expect more collisions and mistakes

    Herbert: "The Mercedes looks good in slow speed corners like this circuit and the Ferrari's are good in long radius corners like Hungary"

    According to sky, the hypersofts aren't holding up the entire lap and the ultras and softs are doing a better job, ferrari have the most hypers and only one soft tyre this weekend, hopefully cooler conditions during q and race might make the hypers last a lap on the ferrari

    that was a messy onboard lap with seb, lockup into sector 3 and rear stepping out in final corners, better to get the limits early, just really happy it isnt raining and ferrari can get setup data
