Today, I am toasting the GP with small pork pies, cheesy snacks and Abbot Ale.

Happy days.

How long is Lawson going to last, do you think?

Lol Ferrari

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Wow, that was some of the worst strategy calls we've seen in ages, so many teams getting it totally wrong.

 

[Limejuice]

I bet Checo is pissed off.

Mercedes magic-8-ball strategy dept is performing as well as usual. 16 and 18.

Russell from third to third-from-last in 10 laps.

It's good to see so many teams' race strategy departments allowing their work-experience school kids a go this weekend...

There's more overtaking than I expected on this track.

 

[Buddy Bradley]

Where's Brundle this weekend?

He and Ted...

That's private.

Liam Lawson overtakes a Ferrari.

Holy moly, Batman.

 

[Limejuice]

Guess who dripped cheddar and chive dip on his keyboard?

More rain soon!

 

[Limejuice]

George!!

 

[Limejuice]

Fuck me. Bid rain!

Red flag.

Anything to ensure Verstappen wins....

Alpine snatching defeat from the jaws of victory - they did have both cars ahead of the McLarens not that long ago.

I've just had a huge downpour here at home, Formula One style.

I wonder if beer will help...

I have to say, I love the airborne shots of the coast. You can see exactly where the rain is falling to the nearest inch.

It reminds me of being a kid on the Northumberland coast: astounding sandy beaches, cold enough to freeze magma.

Here it doesn't rain much during the day (but can rain a lot over night). If I look out the back by the beach I can look right (south) and see the rain coming, it means I never get caught out in the rain

And I bet it's warm, too.

My daughter's in Mexico and it's 30 degrees every day, with thundery rain and sun pretty much every day.

If it rains here its usually all dry with-in an hour and yes the rain is warm

Lewis was only 1 point behind Alonso in the drivers championship before this race but it looks like he is going to fall back again today

 

[Buddy Bradley]

One of the more compelling races so far this season, albeit entirely because of the rain.

Yep, and a surprising amount of overtaking down the field, which I didn't expect.

Weather, strategy, jeopardy, random fuck-ups = fun racing.

OK guys we are out of here, see you all next weekend for Monza
