It could be that Vettel gets a grid penalty when the FIA meet up to decide what action take. Although yes it look he meant to do that. I wouldn't be surprised if Vettel and Hamilton clashed again later in the season.

 

 

No further action after Vettel apologised.

Didn't think he'll get punished for it. He's apologised. So we move on to Austria.

 

In other news-

 

Robert Kubica is set to get another test for Renault- no news on when that will be.

 

 

Yaaaaaaaaaaaas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

If I was Palmer I'd be feeling very uncomfortable.

 

Last Renault were saying it was all "yeah it was amaze but it was just a one off" to "he's not currently on our list for 2018"

Kubica reporting that theres a 80-90% chance he'll be back in F1. Renault test is this month at an undisclosed local. Also rumours of Palmer being brexited at the summer break in favour of Kubica are intensifying. That particular mill also says that Kubica was quicker in the Simulator at Enstone than Hulk

Would love to see Kubica back in the Sport and as much as I was backing Palmer to do well this season, it just simply isn't happening so I'm all for this potential mid-season switcheroo!

And once again :rolleyes: the future of the British Grand Prix is in doubt over Silverstone apparently looking to terminate their contract to host it after 2019.

 

 

I don't think it's in doubt, Brands Hatch are supposedly willing to snatch it. It's just for a better deal and I don't blame them.

 

 

Renault have confirmed that this second Kubica test at Paul Ricard next week is for him to test his capabilities to return to the top level of competition. AKA an audition.

 

 

BRB am dying.

And The So-Called Special One gets a five place grid penalty thanks to a gearbox change. Sorry just never liked him since 2009.

My mother and I may have slightly celebrate this news earlier

Here's hoping Bottas does the job tomorrow then (or y'know a RED BULL).

Is the race worth a watch at all?

Only for the start & the end. You can skip the 69 laps in the middle :P

Boring as anything then?

Not the most exciting of races this season let's just say. At least Danny got yet another podium!

I wouldn't even watch after the pack round turn 5 on lap 1. Wish it'd rained

Not the most exciting of races this season let's just say. At least Danny got yet another podium!

5 in a row!! Yaaaaaaas

Maybe the weather will play a part next week in Silverstone.

 

Good win for Bottas though in a mostly dull race.

 

Great to see Ricciardo on the podium again. Well played Daniel.

 

 

As expected, Silverstone have decided to drop F1 after 2019 because of costs unless there is a new deal. Shame to see that happen.

Yeah seems a little more alarming this time round as opposed to the umpteen times this debate has reared it's ugly head in the past. I'll remain confident for now some deal can be agreed but this would be the biggest miss in the calendar if it were to happen.
