Hamilton signs 2-year extension to Mercedes AMG contract - reportedly worth +/- £40 million/year.

As for this weekend's Austrian GP, Verstappen looking very strong..... Although Mercedes took a 1-2 in 2nd Practice.

The man will be 38 at the end of this contract for God's sake - what's your point? He owns just about every record in the books. I'm hoping he get's his 8th Championship and will no doubt take his 100th win..... Who's going to beat it?

The class of Red Bull & Verstappen, the likes of Leclerc, Norris, Russell are going to take over, but please - give the man the respect he deserves!

Red Bull are way ahead this season, but write off Hamilton and Mercedes at your peril....

I'd also add that I very much doubt it's Hamilton's last contract in F1... His knowledge, his experience - why would a team let that go?

:cheers: :cheers:

An experiment this weekend. :shock: For Austria I picked the exact same top 10 finishers in the same position as last weeks race, except I dropped Tsunoda in 10th and replaced him with Räikkönen.

Let's see how this one works?! :laugh:

I've gone for wishful thinking again..... The likely cause of my run of Wooden Spoons!! :oops: :banghead:

The rest of the field will have their work cut out to match Red Bull and Verstappen who looks to be a good 0.25 - 0.3 sec quicker despite Norris' qualifying time - will certainly be interesting to see how Mclaren fair today.

Mercedes need to get their thinking caps on......

I am sticking by my usual tactics, look at the practice results, analyse them and get it completely wrong. :oops:
Woke up this morning breathing that's a good start to the day.
