    LOL

    The BOOOO's against Lewis as he enters the track will dominate the track.

    He better bring private security and stay inside the track and not at an outside hotel.

    I doubt that. The Orange Army alone will make certain this race is pivotal. They were cheated at Spa, so I don't anticipate waning interest. Not to mention the crowd's showdown with Lewis....lot's of animosity awaiting his arrival.

    I think he'll just bring a pair of noise-cancelling earbuds and get on with it. He barely batted an eye at Spa and just waved like they were applauding.

    You have to have a cool head when there's a target on your back. I'm certain they will keep him in a secure location....honestly, it's amazing that they would need to. Did anything every happen to Maldonado after he took out numerous drivers? Or Grosjean, when he helped deny Alonso of title 3 with his Spa mishap? Senna when he deliberately crashed Prost out at Suzuka?

    This might be a bit different. This is an orange fortress. Period. It was INSANELY difficult to get tickets for this race, so I expect 100% of the audience to be from NL and thus in orange. If Hamilton tries another shunt like at Silverstone, there is a chance they will break down the barriers and go after him in the pits. As they should.

    I hope Lewis will be intimidated and do poorly at Zandvoort. It would only be poetic justice after Silverstone. Maybe for once Perez can come to the rescue and do a Bottas with the Merc team.

    Ever if you managed to get tickets, there was a 33% (...ironically) chance that they'd take them away from you in the last week!

    No orange smoke allowed. I think beer reduction or no beer at all. Doesn't stop people bringing ''water'' though.

    Presumably F1's eco-conscious participants will be taking private planes for the 200 miles from Spa using the excuse that they need to fly to protect the Covid bubble !

    I hope for an epic race. Who doesn’t want a passionate event and a feel good story?! If Verstappen wins, the place is going to lose its mind. If Ham wins, the place is going to lose its mind. As it stands F1 has already lost its mind (after the Spa debacle and massive fraud)…

    I am looking forwards to that GP on the new(ish) circuit. A return to Zandvoort was long overdue, IMO. Huge fanbase here now, due to Max.

    Let's hope for good weather, clean racing, no safety car, no red flag, and no technicalities issues at the last minute to spoil the results.

    Is that too much to ask ? We could do with a GP weekend without controversy this time.

    The FIA and F1 need to claim some credibility next and not bring more obscure rules to hide their incompetence.

    You advocate violence in the pits. Really. Thats what F1 needs now eh? A mob. No we dont need that.

    Unless it rains this is going to be a massive borefest IMO, might as well give the points out on Saturday, again....

    That's what happen with a partisan crowd. I hope that what plagues football (soccer) will never come to F1.

    I blame the media for raising tension. We had less of them in the past, and these situations never occured.
