Bit of a dull procession, more dominance from Mercedes at the moment.

Yes, I actually nodded off for about 20 laps

That track reminds me of Paris. Dull.

Took the dog for a walk 30 laps in .

Sums up my feeling on the race.

Yes it was something of a procession today, to say the least. Danny Ric tried to make it interesting towards the end, to be fair to him

The bollard rolling across the track was quite exciting.

Few points for Lewis after a tough weekend. The Mercs weren't cooling like the other cars apparently.

And then the controversy at the end. Its a difficult one, I could see both drivers points of view. But we want racing, so right decision probably.

Pretty sure young Max will be world champion one day , when Lewis calls it a day or he gets a car of equal ability

 

[The Fear]

Yes, started off as too much of a hothead, but seems to be calming down and progressing well doesn't he Mr 57?

Hope the other British lad, Lando Norris progresses as well, I like a Brit to support!

Max versus Charles is the battle we will see for the next decade or so. Lando looks like he could get a good drive one day, as well.

Lewis is brilliant, so whilst he's around, I'll support him. I don't care about his personality. he's a great driver. That's what counts.

 

[Melon Donkey]

Yep Heath.
Le Clerc and Max are the ones to take on the mantle.

George Russell is a talent as much as Lando. He beat Lando to the Formula 2 crown last season .
Could be a great era for GB beyond Lewis if these two get the right seat in a competitive team .

Let's hope so!!!!!

A BIG well done to Lewis Hamilton on winning his 6th British Grand Prix.

That makes him the most successful driver at the British Grand Prix beating Jim Clark and Alain Prost, both with 5 wins.

Some amazing racing today.

 

[Melon Donkey]

Great day out at the race today.

Most hilarious moment of the day. The reaction of the Dutch fans sat next to us when Vettel went up Crashstapppens chuff

 

[JuanPabloAngel]

Vettel OUT of Q1 in his home Grand Prix

How does Hamilton keep doing so well in qualifying? He looked dead and buried in practice.

Because he's fast becoming the GOAT (I think that's what the kidz say these days ?)
