Apparently Alex albons girlfriend doesn’t follow any f1 teams on Instagram. Apart from that she just started following Williams……… they’ll make a rumour about anything these days although with how tied the youth is with their accounts this might have some truth

Zandvoort - So far so dull.

It's refreshing to see a different track though, the banking is 😎

It's not that bad, some decent overtaking in the midfield, but hardly a riveting race.

I’m not sure if I could be as calm as bonno when Lewis starts with the tyre moaning. I’d be telling him to shut the fuck up and do what he’s paid to do 😂

I saw some of the F3 which was great, I guess it’s just the consequence of a smallish narrow track.

Love the Dutch and their flares though, pretty sure just carrying one here would land you in jail 😂

It would be taken from you at silverstone in their bag searches at least

Yeah, would be a fun track to drive on I imagine. LH was saying he enjoyed it anyway. Just not good for racing.

Just hope next year's cars with less aero, will be able to race a bit more closely as we have plenty tracks already where most of the race id done by Saturday Quali.

Seems like George to Mercedes was confirmed in the paddock on Saturday or Sunday as many people kept interrupting his interviews and congratulating him on the move.

Bottas in the mid field until he retires then. Unless Alfa produce the best car of 2022 and he's champion, which would be hilarious.

He is known to frequent the mid field, even at Mercedes :lol:

Mercedes would have been stupid to keep Russell at Williams for another year. He's served his apprenticeship well at Williams and Merc need him for the future, when Hamilton hangs up his boots.

Can't wait to see LH vs GR next season, that's going to be fascinating.

Great news. Fingers crossed he lives up to his promise.

Well that will fill the build up to Monza with debate on how he will do, as opposed to how he might do. :)

If the cars are closer next year as promised, it could be a season to remember as there are half a dozen top class drivers at least, probably more, both older (Alonso and Lewis possibly Ricciardo) and younger generation even more so LeClerc, Sainz, Norris, Russell with Gasly and Ocon not far behind.
