Same situation in Belgium with thunderstorms , mudflows and extensive damage caused by very large hailstones (!)

Killed by Death

A new multi-year Ferrari contract for Charlie.

As bad as it gets with those hailstones, yesterday rain bucketed down here relentlessly then after an hour was sunshine...then an hour later wind with dark grey skies out of nowhere and same thing!

The Canadian Grand Prix gave us plenty of action and hopefully Monaco can deliver a more entertaining race than we have seen in some recent years. I am particularly interested to see how George Russell responds after a frustrating weekend in Canada and whether he can start reducing the gap to Kimi Antonelli in the championship standings.

The concert lineup alone is impressive, with artists like 50 Cent, Travis Scott, Central Cee, Fisher, and John Summit performing during the weekend. For anyone attending, this guide has a good overview of the fan activities and events happening around Monaco.

So, assuming the compression trick is true, all teams using Mercedes-engines must now swap engines before Monaco GP? They can only swap 4 times during a season if i recall correctly.

that's what i don't understand. maybe there is no trick or maybe the trick will still pass the new test.

Anyway, it will certainly be interesting to see how many of the Merc-powered cars will announce ICE replacement before Monaco. If a lot are doing it then it's strengthens the theory that Merc has higher compression, but if few announce ICE replacement it certainly weakens this theory.

i'm guessing nothing will happen. every time there is a rule change the internet goes crazy and then we find that it's still status quo most of the time.

only one way to find out ...

apparently they didn't extend his contract, it was already there, they just increased his pay by a lot a lot!

so Toto was seen in deep discussions with Jos at Canada so the media asked George about it as they do

George responded he'd be very happy to drive next to Max

I'm not so sure that's what the media meant!

Yes . Jos held in-depth discussions with Wolff and that happened more than once at Montreal.
I think RUS will be gone and Kimi Antonelli will be very happy to drive next to MAX.
