Twizy all the way, but it should really be this one

Also I'm heartbroken that the Alpine isn't available in the US

I'm with you. The Alpine looks amazing, a real mid-engine sports car. That said, I can't seem to find anything about that aero & slick tire laden Twizy. I gotta have one of those.

pity something like this isn't a mandatory drive for a renault f1 driver



that '92 f1 engine sounds absolutely glorious.

Its the Twizy Renault Sport F1 that Vettel even drove once.

My mind simply cannot reconcile the sound, speed and shape of that car

That thing is awesome!

Perez had an inconclusive result for COVID.

Hulkenburg might be replacing him at Silverstone.

If he doesn’t get a podium now then he’s never making it.

Unfortunately he is out after Q2.

Mercedes only .7 seconds faster than Red Bull. Looks like RB is making gains!

A full second behind Hamilton though...I guess it's still better than the 1.2s at the Sytrian GP.

That was crazy! Grosjean remains a menace. Albon probably has a bit more empathy for Hamilton after getting that penalty...

Exciting ending but the WDC is basically over now. Next week with higher temps and softer tires should make it even more interesting before Mercedes pulls out another win.

Assuming there wasn't an external factor (sharp kerb or carbon fiber on track), I think Pirelli will mandate higher tire pressures, reduced camber to minimize failures. Which is silly, really. The teams know how to avoid failures: Come in and change the tires. Or crash. Pretty simple.

Agreed, I hope they don't change anything for next week, it seems like debris may have had an impact? I'm sure Mercedes will be protesting pretty loudly to get the compounds changed.

Also - it's a shame that Hulk didn't get to drive today, they should have given him Stroll's car. Stroll was **** today, that car won last year and he only made it to 9th because two cars ahead had the punctures.
