Just remember that Horacio Pagani took the track only Zonda R out for a spin on the roads with potential customers and got a fine for it being too loud. They seem to love anything automotive in Italy, where as here a new build estate near Croft circuit got a very restrictive noise limit put in place, despite the circuit existing for decades

Too much Jermy Vein commentary :(

Unbelievable! I watched F1 practice and they showed the lip and JB was just "woah" could have been horrific.

For me - maybe not totally surprised he missed the car - the most impressive part was not hitting the wall. Good news all round 8-)

Catching up on qualifying, surely Sergio is definitely on borrrowed time.

Both Haas disqualified due to too big a gap in their drs, despite not giving any extra performance. Both now starting at the back of the grid with wings reset to correct dimensions

Wonder if Leclerc will stuff it in the wall first or if Ferrari will find a way to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

I hope that pilot of that boat summoned his best Jim Carey impression and said "like a glove" immediately afterwards.

After Ocon tried a dive down the inside of gasley he was given 10 seconds penalty. As he didn’t continue they’ve converted it into a 5 place grid drop in Canada, that is if he races, as Bruno has threatened to bench him next race

Glad I was watching highlights not live 😂

Ferrari now only 20 points behind RB has got to be a bit of a wake up call for the team…

I thought Ocon was going to do better, in his first stint in F1 he was a bit rough round the edges but showed good pace. Seems like he's lost his pace and is still rough round the edges! Never managed to mature.

Perez signed up for a 2 year contract extension with Red Bull. The real question is what incriminating evidence does he have of Horner?

The Race suggested they've got no better option on hand.
