Eleven more Grand Prix left in this season and Belgian famous Spa-Francorchamps circuit is next for this weekend.
Can anyone confirm weather prognosis for next days and during the weekend for Stavelot, Liege?
I see some rain and humidity for Friday and Saturday, but Sunday should be dry and sunny.

That is without a doubt the best circuit of the calendar and the fact that the weather will be sunny on Sunday is great here,in such track rain only ruins things instead of making the race more interesting.Verstappen is having a 10 place grid penalty and this means to be thought well guys regarding the way we should place our predictions carefully taking this into considerations and also Tsunoda will start last,so most likely Tsunoda to be excluded from points zone here.

What I see as a definite thing here is McLaren winning again.That is the only variable I don't see changing during this weekend.Can't wait for Sunday for this track,then off to vacation we go until end of August.

I am not so sure about that, Ferrari has a good record on Spa-Francorchamps and they can always come back with another win.
Winning in F1 Practices doesnt mean that some team will do good in qualifications and in main race.
But I like how F1 has become much more interesting after some mistakes from team Red Bull and Verstappen.

McLaren has really made a big progress recently as you have also seen. Do you think they can become the champions this season?    Because while there are still 11 races left it has started to be more possible. The current point difference is 51 which can easily be closed. You know Perez's situation this season. He is a big failure and Verstappen isn't as dominant as last season to make Red Bull champions by himself now.

It is definitely possible unless redbull sacks Perez and takes another driver for the rest of the season which is highly likely i think

Perez can't seem to find his groove back on and I know it has a lot to do with the car not being the fastest anymore but since Verstappen is Verstappen, most people think that Perez just has no skills at all because of their big difference

Anyway there are three possible options for redbull right now: Ricciardo, Tsunoda, or Lawson

Whoever they put in the second seat of redbull, I am pretty sure Mclaren has the wcc in the bag with both of their drivers consistently driving well

From a team perspective, letting Norris win would have been the right call - after all, he's got a theoretical chance of pushing Verstappen for the title. Piastri does not, so I was really surprised by the call.

I'm putting this guy as my all for the pick. Winner, fastest, pole. Then saw that he did actually top practice, and he is the bookie favoured, so turns out I'm not really making any kind of smart call anyway heh.

Do want Max to be pushed all the way so Norris winning is really the best outcome for the sport.

F1 is a strange animal really, I'm on a good betting roll and don't want it to end.

I don't know if it was because of Verstappen or becaue of the new power unit or because of the rain that he was on another planet making the fastest lap half second faster than the second guy.Sure McLaren did well as a car but their drivers unfortunately both fail to give their maximum in the rain as they are not experienced drivers in the rain like Hamilton or Verstappen.I had Norris as the top guy and keeping him although in here starting from the 4th place is no big problem considering how fast this track is and how many DRS zones are in this track,it should be a good one,one thing I am sure,it is not going to be anyone getting more than 20 points from the starting line up in here.

Tsunoda is trying to make Red Bull realize his existence recently. He says he is the best among the possible candidates for the seat there. But I don't know what Red Bull thinks about it for now.


By the way Leclerc has taken the pole position. I was never expecting this to happen to be honest.    But track conditions were wet mostly and after it started to dry it was really difficult to predict who would win pole position. Perez was also close to win it but Leclerc got past him by a very small gap. McLaren drivers couldn't keep a good pace in qualifying. There is no rain expected for tomorrow as far as I can see. They can still climb to top.

I told you guys Ferrari has a good chance to do something in Spa-Francorchamps and Leclerc won the first place in qualifications and pole position.
One of my picks was also on Hamilton and I placed a nice bet on him in Sportsbet, he is starting from third place and I think he can win tomorrow.
It is going to be interesting to see what Verstappen can do starting from 11th place, but maybe Perez saves the day for team Red Bull.
