Summer break is over, and we’re at the classic Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium!
– Yes, there’s a high chance it might rain during the race
– Lando Norris is on pole
– Max Verstappen won the sprint race
– Lewis Hamilton and Kimi Antonelli are both having horrible weekends
โ๏ธ Track info:
– Two DRS zones
– Tyre compounds: C1 (hard) – C3 (medium) – C4 (softs)
– Two stop strategy expected, but rain might throw a wrench in this
– Pit stop time loss is 18.8 seconds
– Fun fact: Spa is the longest circuit on the current F1 calendar
โ๏ธ Here’s the grid for today:
Update: Lewis Hamilton, Kimi Antonelli, Fernando Alonso, and Carlos Sainz will all start from the pit lane after making changes to their cars.
Cue flashbacks to 2021 when we spent three hours watching drivers lounge around followed by two laps behind the safety car.
