The start of the race, really make the race. I believe that restarts are more problematic.
Some of the crashes at SPA have been very horrendous as well.....Grosjean is a very luck man

Hamilton has tested positive for covid. He is out for the weekend, at least.
The crazy continues!
The crazy continues!
Verstappen must be rubbing his hands together for this weekend now Hammy has tested +very for COVID..
Who will be the replacement driver for Lewis this weekend? I vote The Hulk...what a great chance that would be for a podium...
George Russell to replace Lewis this weekend. What a result for him.
Next race will see if Max can be faster than Merc. guys.
Shummy to HAAS-> https://www.motorsportweek.com/2020/12/02/schumacher-steps-up-to-haas-on-multi-year-deal/
Russell sits in for Hamilton -> https://www.motorsportweek.com/2020/12/02/russell-replaces-hamilton-at-mercedes-aitken-at-williams/

Interesting choice in Russell. He was driven well, but made some mistakes and he passes over the in-house Vandoorn or Racing Point sub the Hulk. The pecking order is sure to get mixed up. Bottas and Verstappen must be excited to have a chance at the top step. Would be great to see Perez win, and announce he’ll drive for Red Bull next season.
Ressell faster than Bottas in practice. Would be a fairytale if he could bring that home in first.
Bottas feeling the pressure!?

Yes. A strong finish for Russell will probably seal the fate for Bottas. With Hamilton getting older each year, we could see 2 new drivers at Merc in 22 or 23.
I agree Bottas is pretty fast driver, hard for Russel to beat him tomorrow for pole or in the race. However, if he does do better than Bottas, I think he is in for next vacate seat at Merc.
Some of the younger Guys in the line up are all good drivers. I really like Gasley, but he is in the Red Bull Camp.

Yes. The sport has evolved to the major engine supplier teams, and their development / support teams. Ocon was seemingly talented Mercedes driver at force India until racing Point let him go and no other Merc team could put him in a seat. Now with Renault, he is possibly past his window, certainly with Merc. But it was either leave Merc or sit out another season. Sauber and Haas will host the next Ferrari junior driver, with the hope to be a number 2, maybe a number 1.
Amazing result for George. So close, just hope there is no carnage at the start.
F1 goes IndyCar. Checo finally gets a deserving win. Merc's come apart, but at least Russel got some points.
As you wish for race for seat we have to wait.
I never liked Bottas ,Rusell showed he is class.He deserved win today.Mercedes is so strong all season play with other teams.
They dont need Lewis for win thats for sure.

I vote to drop Lewis from Mercedes, employ Russell, save loads of cash and have races like that each week.
Heartbreaking for Russell. He should be very proud.

Russel can replace Lewis and Mercedes would still win. They could replace both current drivers (Bottas and Hamilton) and win with Russel and Perez because the Mers are so good.
For many years Perez (especially early on) was a pay to play driver. But over the last 2-3 seasons he has really become a good, even very good driver. A case of a guy who always had talent and through a lot of hard work has developed the talent into driver skill. He deserves a drive next year with a top 4 or 5 team. Maybe even a top 3 team right now. He is certainly driving better than bottas, albon and stroll. Maybe even better than Verstappen or Hamilton.
Russell drove well, nearly as flawlessly as Hamilton does every week. Poor execution from Merc threw his effort away. Bottas is struggling, he has lost his mojo.
