Still dominating the race but there seems to be a bit of turmoil between Max & Checo, although maybe just drama.

Aston -
Things are going well for Alonso. Not so smooth for Stroll but still good all things considered

MB -
They are bringing upgrade, I doubt it will bring them close to RB, maybe to Aston/Ferrari

Ferrari -
Always a conundrum, we won't know until we know!

No race this weekend due to flooding in the Emilia-Romagna region!

I wasn't paying enough attention to the news until an update from @remainingthird and then saw the news this morning on the F-1 website.

I guess we wait one more week until Monaco.

Thanks for the info, didn't see that. Yes, I could do without a race on wet tires... yes, Schumi did it well but it's no fun....

RB has made it crystal clear that Max is #1 . The irony is they got rid of DannyRic because he was slow.... 🤷

Alonso is supportive until Stroll is competitive...

Will Stroll ever be competitive? He's good enough of a driver for Formula 1, but he'll never be world champion.

I've always thought once Lawrence bought Aston Martin that he and Lance should have focused on sportscar racing. A win at the 24 Hours of Le Mans would be a worthy goal.

Doubtful. He isn't consistent enough. Alonso is a good yardstick, he's much faster in the same car (Albon had a similar issue when he was in RB, maybe the Max effect). Re. Le Mans, that seems like what people do after F-1 (McNish, etc.). Plus you get one race a year...
