Good to see the young guns of F1 going wheel to wheel at the Austrian Grand Prix. Also good to see Red Bull back to winning ways. Formula One just got exciting again!

Evening

Definitely a brilliant drive after a bad start for Max. Red Bull have really upped their game and it made for great racing. And good to see the stewards saw sense also. Some decent wheel to wheel racing not only from the front runners. 

Leclerc, Verstappen and Norris will be  the stars of F1 next year. 

I predict LH will maybe grab one more title and will retire.

Hey, next stop Silverstone, it'll be LH or CL for the winfoot-in-mouth

Certainly one of the most interesting races this season. Ferrari seem to be managing a few "own goals". That tyre change seemed a bit of a shambles.

Yes it was a bit more interesting. I had given up watching the processions every race. Formular E is the one to watch these days. I cannot imagine Honda have increased the engine performance by that much, the win was down to driver and chassis. Will RB come out on top at Silverstone? I doubt it. Silverstone is a power circuit.

Silverstone (long may it continue) is indeed a power circuit. The Silver Arrows and the Scuderia will have that power and I think Mercedes have the edge if they can cure the overheating they allegedly had in Austria. 

F1 is full of psycology and speculation. But as a petrol head I accept that over formula E. 

I went to Goodwood festival of speed in 2008, there you get to walk around the paddocks and chat with the mechanics, get a look at the cars and engines and chat to the drivers. I met Jenson Button, Keke Rosberg, Ross Brawn and Lewis Hamilton then, a great experience for anyone who loves fast cars. Their love of racing and passion for thrashing an internal combustion engine was enthralling for me. Procession or not, F1 is still the pinnacle in motorsport.
