Love Ted and Brundle, but Alex Jacques makes it an easy choice

As much as I'd like to be there today, I'm actually not too envious in this heat.  :lol:  Silverstone is a bugger in this weather, nowhere with shade unless you're in a covered grandstand. I remember one year (2005) where it really was unbearable there...27 degrees but it felt even hotter. Unfortunately we were in the old uncovered Abbey grandstand that year!

Channel 4 all day. Even with half the programme dedicated to Tom Cruise its miles better than Sky.

Everyone on Mediums lol apart from Perez on Hards.

Both Mercedes on used Medium apparently which suggests a 2 stop, saving new Medium for later.

I think the average pit stop time loss last year was 19.8 seconds (minimum 18.3), so maybe a two-stop strategy might work.

Come on Alonso same start as yesterday, gain 6 places and you’ll find yourself 1st by turn 3. That would make things funs.

Maybe they're more stable once they've already done one cycle of temperature degradation?
