His time at McLaren should be expunged from his record!

Remember also, and despite of all the favouritism toward the other driver in the team, he has won their only race since 2010, he was not the problem.

Disagree, you can't just forget his two years at McLaren, he just couldn't cope with the same car that Norris had and there is no suggestion of favouritism.

Too bad for Francorchamps , the track has enough troubles already with crashes without the very dangerous high speed situations in the rain.
Hopefully all drivers will have a safe race !

I hear the FIA and the SPA-race organisation will speak with drivers before the race ...

God bless Spa-Francorchamps !

Another baby being planned by Geri and Christian my friend, that's some pure Ginger Spice there

I’d expect that from a Pom!

Favoritism was shown toward Norris in almost every race for goodness sake.

You would get a job on Sky with that sort of thinking

I suppose there was also no favouritism last weekend when they pitted Oscar second even though he was as the lead driver?

The car was designed around the wonder boy and until quite recently he has done nothing of note, simple.

Attending the GP in Spa for the first time this weekend and taking trains all the way from London. My question is, has anyone camped with Global Tickets before, and if so which stop do we get off the bus at closest to the tracks camp grounds from the 294/395 bus.

The Belgian weather update from today:
Bad news my friend . It looks very bad !

Today we get non-stop rain showers , and today we get also unpredictable gusts of wind...
Today I was like 2-3 min. outside , and I was soaked by the rain !

MAX (today) : Sure it will be extremely chaotic by the rain , but I can't wait to race in the rain ...

I ? Ohhhh.... No ! Good Lord . I wouldn't do it , I don't dare to think about it at 300km/h @Eau-Rouge in the rain and in the spray .
Remember the Eau-Rouge slope is 17 % and when they drive uphill ,they can't see what's going on beyond the top of the hill ...
They are basically driving blind !!!
But I'm not MAX

Meanwhile I hear rumors like : Let's cancel the whole SPA race weekend , because the situation is just too dangerous for the drivers !

You can't compare Piastri's one race strat call to what was happening to RIC over two years at McLaren.

I don't even think about it ...

Traffic jams and bad weather are a bad combination at the SPA race weekend

We will see Checo is 'back on track' now after his bad spell with the Monaco FP crash and the races after that.
