The rumor about Lukaku to Juventus just seems to be fake news created by Chelsea to increase the pressure and the price for Inter.
Inter wanted to pay only 30m for him, so Chelsea is trying to increase it.

More rumors about a potential for Joao Felix in France to PSG.
In the past few days, other people have spoken about it and the deal will be a thing ONLY IF Neymar will leave PSG.
To link the above in the past months we got rumors of Neymar joining the premier league or going to Arabia.

It is incredible how Max is never punished for what he is doing in the race.
Today he overtook Russell under the yellow flag, for that reason he did the time in the Q2 otherwise he was out and unable to fight for the pole position. Result? no penalty for an infraction, again.

Drivers like Hamilton really don't lose much from their skills even when they are 41 such as Alonso. Alonso is one of the most consistent and successful drivers of this season in the end. Making big positive changes on Mercedes' car can make Hamilton believe in his 8th title again. Otherwise he isn't likely to make this happen while Red Bull are dominant this much.
Age is just a number, especially in this sport where the psychical component is not the only source of strength. If in 2 years he will have the dominant car he can still win even if his body is 0.2 seconds slower. |

The rumor about the interest of Juventus in Lukaku should be just a clickbait bs.
It has been confirmed to be a bs from different sources.

Yeah, Onana will be a player of Man U.
He is wanted by his old coach Ten Hag and Inter needs the money so it will be a win-win situation.
He is a good goalkeeper for sure better than this De Gea.

In q3, ferrari and mercedes got the predicted results. The mclaren team did a great job post-update update. In my opinion, the main hero of the rankings, Albon, both passed Perez with a vehicle like Williams and hunted Alonso in the last moment of q3. I hope this performance will increase exponentially until the end of the season, because his name has already started to be mentioned good instead of Sainz. A pleasant race awaits us, accompanied by albon's performance. And a mclaren that will try to challenge Max, a mercedes and ferrari team that will chase him.
Indeed Albion is doing an amazing job, with his Williams. Albion is also rumored to have refused an offer from the RBR family to be back in their galaxy. It is unknown if was a seat in RBR or Alpha Tauri. |

According to rumors Bonucci will end in Premier to Newcastle.
But according to my knowing of him as a Juventus fan, he will never leave Italy for his family situation, so I don' think it will ever happen.

Nevermind guys rain is expected for Tomorrow but Sunday it will be sunny according to Sky Sports Italy.
Should be an easy pole for Max Verstappen in this race.

Looks like Mclaren is trying something again. Lando was fifth last week if I dont remember wrong and looking at the practice it looks like he wasnt there. Albon on the other hand looks like he used quali setup basically he was rapid for sure. All in all I believe this race wont be too much different from last weeks race for sure. Max win, perez second, ferrari third and fourt, and alonso, russell, hamilton, noris all fighting for fifth together. That is what I believe we will see and to be fair most oddmakers agree with me as well. I cant say much about the situation for them, but I am sure they must be pretty upset that Max keeps winning, people just cash out profits each race at this point. It looks like or at least feels like simple way of making money to just bet on Max and take out profits.
yep, they are testing new components but don't look at times. Their simulation for the race was even faster then RBR simulation  . Tomorrow rain is expected. |

RBR is dominating even more this weekend so far.
They are doing incredible timers with harder compounds over the other teams.
Should be an easy 1-2...

Fun fact we got I think 3 GPs with rain in a row so far.
Now we are going in Britain where the rain is almost daily and according to weather website it will not rain for the 3 days needed for the race.

Verstappen has some opinions of his own for 2026 season:
- He thinks that we should see cars with V8 engines back again.
- The cars should have smaller tyres and their weight should be reduced.
- Lastly the need for DRS should be put to an end.
I don't know how much FIA would care about Verstappen's opinions though. But the current era is really not ideal for the rest of the teams now. Having some significant changes might give us some hope about watching a more competitive season for the championship maybe.
The 2026 engines are already chosen so his opinions count nothing since teams are already working on them. About DRS he is right but it will not happen since these cars need to push to aerodynamics. |

True true.. I was just thinking Mercedes should prolly get somethin going with the car this week after the weak showing they had last week. But yeah, we'll see. Hope it's a good race between Verstappen and whoever is behind him. A funny little stat for Silverstone is out of 6 races only a couple won from pole. :/
And good one with McLaren and Norris comment. I kinda forgot about them. Lol. But yeah, an English team with an English driver. You guys think he could finish top 6? Seems like a fair bet at 2.50.
Mclaren has been reborn with the recent upgrade. Piastri will have to this weekend and they didn't install all upgrades the past week. The top 6 will be hard but if everything works, why not. |

Ferrari gave some hope to the fans in Canada by making the right strategies and having a solid race. But this didn't last long for them I'm afraid. There was another tactical mistake here indeed and Sainz's race got even more difficult. He showed his reaction to this bad call and a long pit stop time on the radio as well.
Now we have entered another race week. The next race is the British Grand Prix. Silverstone can be the track to determine Perez's fate at Red Bull as well. Because recently it is speculated that Perez might be replaced by Ricciardo after this race.
Actually, Ferrari after Barcelona did a huge upgrade on the car, now they are at the same level or above Aston Martin. RBR is on another planet and I don't think Ferrari wants to push more for this car, is a wiser choice to spend the remaining money of the salary cap in the 2024 car at this point. |

F1 today announced calendar for 2024 season: https://twitter.com/F1/status/167658421455944499324 races, return of China for the first time since 2019 and races in Bahrain and Saudia Arabia will be held on Saturday because of Ramadan. Considering that we have 24 races - most ever, it's a bit strange that we have two 1 month breaks - as usual, summer break between Belgium and Netherlands and then between Singapore and USA. Potentially it can be another month break if Chinese GP will be canceled because of Covid again. Waiting whole month for race is just too long. Yeah, Idk why they don't just go in the southern hemisphere of the globe during the European summer. It should not be hot in Brazil for example |

Not it is official, Di Maria is back as a free agent to Benfica, he will stay there for 1 year in preparation for the American cup and then he leave Europe.

Well, it's simply ridiculous and as I said, they should find solution for it. Seems that putting gravel trap or higher kerbs isn't an option because of MotoGP.
The only solution is to use higher Kerbs for Formula 1 and remove the kerbs for MOTO GP. But they are lazy and they don't want to do it, it is not so high expense for them. |
