The F-1 teams remain at Silverstone for Round 2 of the British Grand Prix. We shall see if Pirelli has fixed their severe Tyre Forces problem that wiped-out quite a few team cars at the end of the race last week. Hamilton should be back for a repeat win and Bottas will most def make some changes so that he is in the hunt at the end unlike last week.

This will be a 2 stopper almost for sure.

Tires getting softer than last week.

All that high speed flat out cornering, those curbs they insist on running over, and the 2nd stint after the safety car just being too long.

Eco. You can pick a fourth selection for 1 point. This will add to your total if you get all four correct.You have until they start the engines on Sunday to change your selections.

Love seeing Hulkenberg succeed. Give the man a car and he will wring it's neck. I hope he gets on the grid next year in a competitive car.

So we all got skunked again.

MB had better get a handle on hot tracks. It bit them last year and is still doing so. Their tires were blistering after 5 laps.

Verstappen catches the Mercs sleeping with a really succinct drive and very good tyre management.

Yeah supposedly their downforce is too good and that was the cause...
