    So if Russell and Max have contact, we will hear all about it's a Mercedes conspiracy to hurt poor obnoxiously arrogant Max!

    Interesting set up data via Autosport!!

    https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/hamilton-mercedes-was-a-handful-compared-to-rivals-in-wet-weather-at-spa/6656159/

    Autosport sources suggested after practice on Friday that with the difficulty of predicting when it would rain for the rest of the weekend – it was at that stage suggested the race could be dry, at least compared to the soaking conditions for qualifying – teams would opt to set-up their cars for optimum performance in the dry and have their drivers cope with that approach in wet conditions.

    In the battle at the front of the grid, this would appear to favour Red Bull, which claimed pole with Max Verstappen, as its high-rake concept means the team struggles to reduce drag for dry conditions as the rear of the RB16B sits higher in the air, which in turn means it has more ‘natural’ downforce when using a dry set-up in the wet.

    I guess Marko and Horner are already rehearsing the accusation and lobbying the stewards in case of incident.

    There won't be any accusations if drivers in Merc powered cars would for once avoid crashing into others; though that's probably too much to ask for

    Let's hope for clean start without losing top contenders, no bad crashes at raidillon and a great fight for the lead till the end.

    Anyone ever notice the Brundle always has his Richard Mille watch on display? I mean he wears a long sleeved shirt and it is up past his cuffs. Today, everyone is wearing puffy jackets, including Brundle, but his cuff is pulled back exposing his watch. Just a weird observation of mine. I swear Brundle said Norris' chassis is ok. The damage was done to the suspension. I have no idea how that chassis would be ok after that shunt. I am just amazed at the safety of these F1 cars. Max gets punted and crashes into the tire wall at 170 mph and walks away from it, Lando had that shunt and walks away. Amazing!

    Mick driving his dad's car was so cool! And the sound from that car was incredible! That car is so tiny compared to today's cars.

    I think Martin has a deal with RM.

    Agree the strength of the chassis and safety of F1 these days is insane. I think the chassis was ''rescued'' due to the angle of impact.
