Remember when George Russell was widely mocked when he predicted Red Bull would win every race this season....well they're 13 from 13 so far.  Just 9 to go....

 

 

Let's be honest, nobody has been close to beating them this year.  Only a miracle will stop them now and with the budget cap, will anybody even get close next year?

They are on course to win the constructors championship by a margin of over 400 points. And that's with Perez doing his best to throw away points at most races.

Indeed, and despite most people thinking he's been dogshit this year, he's still 2nd in the World Championship.

 

The scariest thing for me though is that at no point have Red Bull really needed to go full chat.  Verstappen has been told on multiple occasions to slow it down.

 

If they wanted to push they'd be over a second a lap quicker.

 

Unprecedented dominance with no end in sight unless Mercedes/Ferrari/McLaren can sneak in to Newey's office with some tracing paper.

British 1-2-3 in formula 3. British winner in Formula 2. Unlikely to be British winner in F1

I'm gonna throw it out there and say there'll be a Dutch winner today.

Sticking your neck out there! 

 

Red Bull's race pace is miles better than Ferrari's. Maybe up to half a second per lap quicker once the Ferrari's tyres start to degrade. I expect Sainz to stay ahead for a few laps (if he has a decent start) then Max will breeze past him down the main straight with DRS once Sainz starts to struggle with grip through Parabolic. Lap 10 at the latest I reckon.

Well in the non Verstappen race Sainz really did pretty well defensively at times but Perez got him eventually.

 

Lots of cars going down the escape route !

 

Hamilton was a bit rash on poor Oscar .

Huge drive from Max today, flawless as usual. History made, 10 in a row. 
Checo huge drive, but for me, Sainz DOTD. Inferior car and Sainz defended like a lion even from his own teammate. Charles had the benefit of attacking sainz who had spent the entire race defending against the RB's so Sainz fully deserves the podium.
Lewis also drove a fantastic race today but made the big mistake into the chicane, he would have been in the fight for DOTD for me if he had not made that mistake. 

Largely uneventful race today but some good battles near the end.

Very poor tbh, squeezed him and I think he just misjudged the gap he left, needed to do better there and feel for Oscar. Huge recovery from Lewis.

Merc have had a howler extended Hamilton’s contract. The guy is absolutely done. 

Based on one incident…

I’d like to see the incident between HAM and PIA again. Looked like Lewis was ahead going into the corner. 

He was slightly ahead but he squeezed oscar and oscar had nowhere to go. Oscar was right on the track edge and Lewis did move right into him, unfortunately. Piastri really couldn't do anything there, I think by the time he would have realised he needed to back out it was too late. Poor judgement from Lewis but apart from that incident Lewis drove a great race tbh.

Watching that back Lewis late braked and Oscar didn't make any attempt to defend, he looked like he was just accepting the overtake, keeping himself straight and allowing Lewis the room but Lewis came across.
