Finally a win for Ferrari. Charles Leclerc wins the sombre Belgium GP with a little bit of help from teammate Vettel.

Its a shame for the dutch fans, but Max and Spa just dont seem to go well together. But this race and the next one are not for RBR. Well deserved win for Leclerc. Vettel did well to back Hamilton off for a while. If not, I think Hamilton would have won. Such a shame for Norris. Albon shows why they replaced Gasly. Gasly drove his best race of the season. Somehow he can pass people in a Toro Rosso. It was a very nice midfield race. Nice moment from the crowd, clapping in lap 19 for Anthoine Hubert.
Monza next week. Another chance for Ferrari.

Missed all the sport today, on nights so it's me sleep time. Was it a good race? Not sad to see Leclerc win.

Leclerc - 11/8 Hamilton - 7/4 Vettel - 11/4 Bottas - 10/1 Max - 25/1 Albon - 66/1 I think Max & Bottas have good values at those odds.

Well I think the bookies are right to have Leclerc as favourite, but you all know that Hamilton thrives on upsetting the odds and at 7/4 - 2/1 that has to be worth a punt on the early exchanges.

Monza is another power track, so Ferrari is better there. But it has some slow corners, and Ferrari sucks at those this year. Also, Hamilton was the best yesterday. It was the safety car(which extended Ferrari's tyre life), Ferrari sacrificing Vettel and a botched pitstop by Mercedes that led to a win with only a small margin. And like hitchcockthelegend said, whenever people think Hamilton cant do it, he goes out and does it.
Max is probably going to take an engine penalty at Monza.

Im watching Max right now at a sports talk show. He said, after what happend on saturday, he just couldnt really give a shit about the race and therefore wasn't disappointed that he crashed.
Ricciardo also said he was glad the race was over. I seems like a lot of the drivers weren't in the mood to race yesterday.

Even as a spectator it was not the same.

What a joke this Q3 session was. They are officially investigating the last lap.
They already red flagged the same thing in F3 qualifying and handed out 17 grid penalties.

I usually just watch the race and not the qualifying but for whatever reason I had tuned in for the qualifying round and saw that silliness unfold. I do be very happy if all those drivers get penalties.

A good race and hats off to Leclerc for holding off Hamilton and then Bottas. Well done, Charles Leclerc. A race of penalties. The funniest moment was when Stroll labelled Vettel an Idiot. But wasn't so far away himself from repeating the same mistake.

It was exciting for a bit, too bad that vanished when Hamilton made a mistake.
