Amazing weekend, from FP2, Quali to what felt like 3 different races in one Sunday.

Also if Max to Mercedes rumors are true, could be an amazing Summer break.

I would also like to add, AM had a strategy masterclass with Lance, P4! (...go canada..)
Yeah, he "Lanced" his chance at a great result by just doing his normal thing and screwing up the good things that daddy Stroll gives him. He was passed multiple times going from as high as 3rd to finishing in 7th. A masterclass by Lance.

tbf just overly optimistic tire strategy by going on the soft. Yes he cleared his way thru the field but then likely burned them out by the end of the race.

Can't tell if this means Max is leaving or staying as a result - is he being fired so Max will stay or is he being fired b/c Max has signed with Mercedes?

Either the Max to Mercedes smoke was too real, or that there are Horndong pics that are gonna be leaked.

Didn't I hear that Red Bull's poor results in Silverstone triggered the threshold where Max could enact his exit clause?
But I mean, I don't know why they would use immediate termination in that situation and not just let him run out the season. If Max is already lost, then what do they have to gain by also immediately firing Horner?

There was a lot, losing key team members over the scandal as well, obvious unanswered issues with the car, burning through drivers, tbf Helmut should go as well.

If you watch S1 of Drive to Survive on Netflix, it should give you a little bit of info on the teams and principals. But yeah, it surprised me too!

my feeling on the Horner thing is that the ownership are making a desperate attempt to appease the Verstappen camp by giving them something they (moreso Jos) have been after for a while. It reeks of desperation and I don't think it will work out in the long run.

Bought tickets from https://ticket.mobilitystation.jp/
there's also https://www.suzukacircuit.jp/eng/f1/ for information

Friend that bought early last year had to use a vpn (she bought hers around oct)
i bought mine in November and didnt have to use a vpn


if i remember correctly if you click through the website of ticket purchase through the suzuka website, itll direct you to the mobility station website
