Bloody impressive lap from Hamilton there. Half a second quicker than Kimi in second and 7 tenths ahead of Vettel!! He is under investigation though apparently (haven't seen it!) Also equalled the record for British GP Poles.
Long, long rally on set point for Venus. Ever since saving it, the entire match has gone Muguruza's way. Looks to be final over now, already.
Well done Garbine but what the heck happened to Venus in the second set?! Good to have a different name on the Wimbledon trophy
Even though she is vastly experienced, you do wonder if Venus couldn't mentally recover from losing that long rally on set point. It's where the downturn started. Either way, Muguruza has been superb this fortnight. In attack and in defence. Delightful to watch.
Charles Leclerc wins again in F2. Easily. Honestly, Ferrari need to grow some balls next season and stick him in the car instead of Kimi (who is long gone). This boy is very, very good.
I'm sure this will be Kimis last year, been pretty average for what feels like a long time now. Don't know anything about this lad though.
You know I rate him super highly He's Hamilton levels of talent tbh. Unfortunately Ferrari don't tend to put a rookie in the car. Suspect they'll lump him into a Haas.
6 F2 races this season. 6 poles. Today was .4 quicker than anyone else, and at the start of the race was between 1-2 seconds a lap quicker than everyone else. Remember it's a one make of car series. That should tell you everything you need to know about the young man. If you include GP3 from the previous year, he's taken 9 poles in the last 10 races.
That's unbelievable really, particuarly as you say it's a one make of car series. Look forward to seeing him in the next couple of years.
Best thing about F2 is that the person who wins the first race starts the second race from eighth, and the person who came eighth from pole etc etc. In the races he's won (therefore starting 8th) and finished he's come fourth and second. Was leading in one other when his car blew. Try and catch the sprint race tomorrow before the GP if you have Sky F1.
