Will we see another ultra-consistent performance from Verstappen? Will Alonso finally get his 33rd? Will Lewis in the new Mercedes claim a victory, 16 years after his maiden win?

How will Ferrari bungle the strategy this weekend?

    I need to see Aston Martin unveil the most illegal, protest-inducing, send-Newey-into-a-coma upgrades and for it to rain so my boy Lance can get that maiden win.

      Ferrari won the 24h of Le Mans. It is only logical to assume we’re due for a big Ferrari fuck up.

    Are we guaranteed to go on this weekend with the situation in Canada right now?

      Wind isn’t blowing south at the moment. So the skies are pretty clear in Montreal. Even when New York was super yellow, Montreal was relatively fine as most of the smoke went around Montreal. Plus the rain that we’ve been getting I’d helping out a lot.

    I’m just looking for excitement. It’s very telling that the “Top 5 Battles of Canada” on the F1 YT channel includes three three-way battles, whereas the “Top 5 Battles of Spain” had a “battle” from qualifying.

    I’m still rooting very hard for Mercedes. If Canada works out very well again, I think it will set a very different tone for the rest of the season

      Yes please. We need hard racing at the front to give the season real intensity. Since Perez cannot do that, revitalised Mercs are the best hope.

    I’ll put my money on another Verstappen win. I hope Perez can get his act together.

    I’m just hoping for a good midfield battle between AM, Ferrari and Mercedes, since I can’t really see anything except a Max win on Sunday. He is just on another level.

    Max will win unless his car breaks. Still, things behind him have been getting more interesting this year, so let’s hope for more of that.
