If you want to watch a preview of what to expect in the testing I found this informative video (rather short compared to all the rest I have viewed) and what the cars that were previewed should have changed during the testing.
Too early, next week we will have tests and cars will have new stuff onboard, new wings are never seen yet. The teams usually uses fake wings for example on presentations to keep their secrets till the last moment possible.

Today I watched a video of Mercedes test run and it looked like they were still quite bouncy. Which means that if they are still as bouncy as last year, that would be terrible. And this was on rain, which means that they weren't even running at full speed and yet they still had the same issue, and if they run at full speed like a real race, it would be even worse. Either something was wrong for the test and they used like last years chassis or whatever I don't know the reason, or they will have the same issue again this year at first. I hope that they will figure that out, it would be a damn shame.
Don't trust these cars we have seen at all. Especially Mercedes and Redbull are known for presenting a car on filming day and having a different one during the tests.

Tottenham have been reported to be interested in Antonio Rudiger from Real Madrid maybe but I don't think this transfer is likely to happen. I mean he is one of the members of the starting eleven for Real Madrid. He has been playing for 90 minutes regularly for a long time. It looks like Ancelotti is quite contented with his performance in the defense line for now. Otherwise there are five natural centre-backs in total in the squad so he would have preferred to give chances to some other defenders.
Tottenham also have quite many centre-backs now but I can't say their defense is very solid now. Maybe they want to get rid of at least one of the current players and bring a credible one to the team.
It is too early for speaking about Spurs transfers. They need to choose their next coach first, Conte will be probably not on its bench any more next year. So I don't think they are doing plans without listening to their next coach.

Roma got won, not an easy one but it is always 3 points for them.
If they don't remove the -15 points of penalty for Juventus will be almost impossible to qualify for the next Champions.

1st half was completed between Juventus and Spezia, 1-0, and far to be an easy game.

One more thing to remember is that Red Bull was the best car last year AND they gained some momentum with the break. I mean everyone looks at this situation like Ferrari got better or Mercedes got better and all of that, but they are merely trying to reach Red Bull levels meanwhile Red Bull is still improving. So, those other teams needs to get better to reach RB first, but then also get better than them after that, which is a big difference.
I still think that Max is the one to beat and all the other teams are not there to win it this year, not yet anyway. Sure they may get better in the future, I am not saying RB will win it every year, but so far the difference is just too big for one summer to cover it and then some.
During the break, FIA changed the rules increasing the height of the car. This was when Ferrari started to lose time and Mercedes started to be competitive again.

Milan and Inter won, important points for the Champions league zone.
The fight for Scudetto is over, we only need to know the teams in the cups for the next year and what will happen to Juventus.
|

Napoli is at +18 points against the second team right now.
Serie A is over, it will be interesting with the sports policy chaos going on in Serie A instead of watching the games.
|
|
|
Already 2 - 0 for Napoli in the 1st half.
Nobody can stop them, easy money betting on them.
|
|
|
Napoli is already winning versus Sassuolo by 1-0.
This year there is no one can stop them in Seria A.

I dont know how this isnt a penalty. Wtf is wrong with the refs today,how can you not give a penalty for this,its just dissapointing. Juventus should have won the match with this penalty but the refs made things for Nantes a lot easier. Juventus now needs to win in france
just a coincidence 2 big errors against Juve and Barca? can be, but the Superleague is coming soon. Source: https://twitter.com/JuveOfficialSup/status/1626512092235804672

Only 1 -1 for Juventus vs Nantes, they got 3 posts but they don't count. Everything is still open, and it will another shame if they will fail the qualification. Also, a penalty is missing at the last minute. No penalty, WTF Source: https://twitter.com/glmdj/status/1626347327505018881
