He has won at Spa from far back in the past though I doubt that he will this time .Spa-my favourite track.

George Russell drove a brilliant race and won today's grand prix . And a few hours later was DQ'd for being 1.5 kg under the minimum weight . A gut wrenching result . Lewis gets the win .

Tough loss for him,but he is a young man. He will be #1 next year when Lewis moves to Ferrari.

Supposedly the one stop strategy contributed to the weight error . Toto and Horner both said you would easily wear off 1kg of rubber from the tires . Horner said they saw that on Fridays long runs .

It's official Carlos has signed a 2 year deal with Williams . It will be interesting to see if Alex/Carlos and the team can gel and become contenders . I wish them luck .

Well, that's it for Sargeant. He really never developed.
