Just hooked it up beautifully, smooth as anything.
Lap of the season, where did he get that extra pace from?!
That was class tbf, the cheers. Wish I went, but as my mate just said to me, I'd have missed the lot in the beer tent.

Would love to be there.
Haven't been since 2012. Fantastic atmosphere, day, noise everything.
Lewis v Max is going to go the whole way isnt it?
I've never been. Not really sure why, been watching F1 since I was about 5 with my Grandad.
Its fantastic mate honestly.
Full the full experience General admission for the Friday to Sunday, camp Thursday to Monday. Never done it myself but that seems to be the general consensus from race fans (im sad I'm on an F1 Forum also).
When i went it was just race day, but you get the support races, live bands, loads of events and activites, you wouldnt think you were in Northamptonshire, a very carnival feel to the whole thing. Would recommend to tick off the bucket list
Only been to three Grands Prix, none of them Silverstone - it was actually cheaper to go on holiday to Hungary and take in a race than buy tickets for Silverstone, mind you!
Happened to pick decent ones mind you:
Spa, 1991(?) Schumacher's first race... although he'd broken down before he got to where we were standing!
Hungary, 1992(?) - Mansell won the world title there.
Donington, 1993(?) Very wet indeed. Senna, but also Barrichello.
It's the cost that's put me off since, so stuck to cheaper things like Touring Cars (Silverstone was very wet November(?) 2019!), classic stuff like Goodwood (yeah, cost there too!) and Silverstone Classic - and back in the day Formula Renault would give you a free ticket in exchange for plaguing you with adverts for their cars. Some half decent drivers came through that series, though.
If F1 is the same as motogp then prices are now the same at most grand prix. In 1996 we rode to Brno to watch the bikes and we paid around £4 for the weekend 3 weeks after Donington charged £30 for the sunday. When we looked at going in 2019 the prices were all around the same and sold through motogp website. Going to Brno in 1996 meant I missed our opening day loss to Forest. I actually prefer going abroad to watch the motogp's, makes it a holiday and will hopefully be back at Assen next year.Only been to three Grands Prix, none of them Silverstone - it was actually cheaper to go on holiday to Hungary and take in a race than buy tickets for Silverstone, mind you!
They at least went at it. Nice bit of spinning from Perez too.Last half died off and Alonso getting that good start made it a bit tasty but I’m not convinced.
More inconsistent penalties from the stewards. Really feel for George.

If they're going to do something like this they need to shake the grid up a bit so the faster cars/drivers end up behind slower ones - like the reverse grid in F2.
