Just read a report that Ocon has been linked to the second McLaren seat. The soap opera gets even better.

It all depends on what Norris does in GP2 this year. He has a contract in his pocket for a McLaren drive if he wins the GP2 title this year. He has his work cut out with Russell leading the championship at the moment. Stoffel's only hope of a McLaren drive next year is Norris finishing second in GP2 and taking the second Toro Rosso seat. Then there is the problem of how McLaren will fit in Nicolas Latifi. His old man has pumped in some serious money into McLaren a few months ago and I assume there is some unwritten clause to use his kid.

So Alonso is after the Triple Crown. It would be hysterical if Toyota put Montoya in their car for next years Le Mans and he beats Alonso to it.

This is becoming a bit like the four Yorkshiremen

I can only dream of my team playing in the Premier League Last year Birmingham City just managed to avoid relegation to League One. The last time we did any good in the Premier League was in the 2009/10 season. The reason why was a very young Joe Hart.

He seems a decent sort of guy but has had really bad luck this year. I'm surprised they gave him the drive last year. Norris might get his seat next year. If Gasly gets promoted who is left in the Red Bull Junior program to take his place? So Hartley might get lucky.

Hamilton made a "mistake" when he left McLaren. Ferrari didn't sign Ricciardo. I assume to get Le Clerc either next year or 2020. It is going to be very interesting few weeks of musical chairs. Lando Norris and George Russell need to get slotted in somewhere. Carlos Jnr might get the Red Bull seat, but he hasn't exactly set the world alight this year. Ocon and Perez will be fighting over the last Force India / Stroll seat. Perez might lose out owing to him putting Force India into Administration. Stoffel will most probably lose his seat, but if Alonso goes to Indy full time next year then McLaren have a huge hole to fill. Alonso in a Red Bull might be interesting but he is far too old for their image. Any young driver 10 years ago would sell both kidneys to get a Williams drive, but at the moment no one wants to touch them. This is far more intriguing than the racing this year.

Looks like he is recovering well. His old lungs were pretty second hand.

With luck I'll go from 498 to 497.

Thanks to everyone involved

I suppose Bottas could still be number one at Williams

I have him and wawa Not a point between them

Where does that leave Carlos Jnr?

Has it been confirmed yet. Can hear the commentators already. " Stroll strolling around in the Stroll"

That was histerical I assume Red Bull had the official rain app working, while Torro Rosso had last years version.

Subs done De Gendt, Quintana, Bernal and Barguil out Benoot, Groenewegen, Gavaria and Porte in (I can't do any worse)

My team was screwed by me before the competition started Added Porte for Thomas, Quintana for Dumoulin, Benoot for Van Avermaet and De Gendt for Alaphilippe.

:clap:I have no subs left

If your riders don't score points then there is no data to send

RIP Mo Nunn One of his not so successful designs http://en.espnf1.com/PICTURES/CMS/22500/22517.3.jpg

He looked rather embarrassed to receive it

A grand total of 30 points for yesterdays stage The downward trend continues

I do like Monaco's large run off areas FIA have always wanted Africa in the championship so that they have all the continents covered. Although the south pole GP could be an issue. Kimi would love it.

Bahrain French (unless they change the venue) Hungarian Singapore Russia Abu Dhabi The only new venue I really like is Baku

I totally agree with this ............ https://www.grandprix247.com/2018/07/16/abiteboul-go-aggressive-cut-championship-to-15-rounds/
