I felt like there was a lot going on today, plenty of action around the midfield especially Lando, Stroll, Albon and both Alpines?
Weekend Warm-up Pundit Prediction's Performance
Pundit | 1st | 2nd | 3rd | Points |
---|---|---|---|---|
Laura | Max | Lando | Alex | 2 |
Lawrence | Lando | Oscar | Sergio | 1 |
Will | Max | Sergio | Lewis | 4 |
Lawrence bottled his return, failing to capitalise on Laura's out-there predictions with even more out-there predictions himself, but Checo earns him a consolation point. Will makes a solid effort on his return.
Season standings at Summer Break
Pundit (appearances) | Points | Average |
---|---|---|
Laura (10) | 27 | 2.70 |
Lawrence (9) | 20 | 2.22 |
Will (7) | 13 | 1.86 |
Jolyon (3) | 13 | 4.33 |
Rosanna (2) | 8 | 4.00 |
Alex (2) | 6 | 3.00 |
Sam (2) | 4 | 2.00 |
James (1) | 4 | 4.00 |
Will's useful points haul pulls him up to 3rd equal (but 4th when taking average points per appearance into consideration). Laura making a decent start with her almost full season of appearances (contrasting with only making five appearances in 2022).

We are watching history being made. Could do with it being a bit more exciting but can’t have everything I guess.
Counterpoint, we are mostly not watching history being made.
I am sick and tired of witnessesing history in our economic, ecological, and geo-political aspects of life, F1 could do without it.
I found it enormous fun, great overtakes, great midfield, Max beating his teammate by 15 sec, lots of struggles on tyres, Hamilton taking the fastest lap on fresh mediums, Max sending it from miles away on Leclerc, slight change of pace with the rain but overall small effect, except for Max almost spinning on Eau Rouge.
Not the best Spa edition ever, but as an attendee of the 2021 edition, certainly not the worst
Definitely not winning any prize for excitement... A bit annoyed with Piastri dropping out, would really like to see his performance in this race.... In the end it's another Redbull Sunday.
