Why was Button even sticking his nose in! He was always crap at Silverstone! Give the guy a break it was strictly marketing for McLaren. I mean how else is a McLaren driver going to get anywhere near the top three qualifiers? More sessions like Q1?

It was the second biggest roar of the crowd today when he put it on top in Q1!

@wb ( I know that won't work but I can't remember your Prost name) Nice to hear Toto defend Lewis like that, completely agree with him. And Lewis owes the FIA no favours especially after they made a mockery with Vettel deliberately driving into a competitor.
On another note! WOT NO POOL THREAD! Some of us campers will have dead mobile phones soon!

The guy can't keep his eyes on his own plate. There is no bigger scumbag behind the wheel in the sport than Vettel. On Monday and in the pre-race interviews in Hungary he'll be charming though. The writing is on the wall, he sees the championship slipping the way Alonso saw it for years. I has to be difficult. I actually pity the guy. What pisses me off about it most is that he completely dismisses talented performances by other drives, because he can't believe it. Verstappen today was defending as good as any driver before him in history. Vettel accuses him of moving under braking. Fuck him.

Probably the surprise for me was Hulk in the Renault finishing well clear of the Force India's, good signs for the yellow team, could they possible have the 4th best car now.

I hope Pirelli don't get thrown under the bus for this, I see it happening already. It was a great race even without the stunning finish. No pun intended. But given Bottas' drive, Ricciardo's drive, Hulkenber's drive and Verstappen's defense it was just stunning from front to back. Oh and Hamilton with a grand-salame as the capper.

Totally agree, and I still feel the tyres were on the conservative side with the race being a 1 stop despite dropping the Hard tyre for this race weekend and going a step softer. Silverstone is very hard on tyres so being a 1 stop race shows how durable the tyres are.

OH WOW!!!! What a race! What a weekend! Where to start?Lewis reigned supreme! So scary when he said his tyres were blistering! Especially after all the other tyres started going pop. Max Verstappen was stunning! Got a huge cheer when he schooled Vettel. Loved how Vettel winged and waved his arms when Max did to him exactly what he did to Max! . One rule for one eh? Can give but can't receive! And then the tyre! Perfect Silverstone! More later.
