Some very cool stuff for the Dutch GP.
For one, Floor Jansen will be performing the Dutch national anthem. She's one of the best singers in the world right now and currently fronting the Finnish band Nightwish. Second, DRS will be enabled for the banked turn! Third, Max will be wearing a helmet to honor his father, Jos which is awesome!!! |

According to most people, this is a Ferrari setup heavy track, so on PAPER, they're the favorites to win here.
But we all know Ferrari will do some kind of stupid strategy. This will also test RB to see if the TD actually made the car faster, or if it was just Max being Max at Spa. If we see another half a second to full second faster in qualifying for RB/Max, then WDC/WCC will essentially be done by Singapore I believe.

Total Max domination on tap for this weekend. This guy is a juggernaut right now and no way he doesn’t win at home for the orange army. Barring a mechanical failure of course.

Hard to imagine anyone beating Max at this point. The rest of the field can't match the straightaway speed, can't match the cornering ability, and are eating through tires faster at the same time. I think LeClerc was like 0.2 down on Max in all 3 sectors. Ferrari tried obtaining the fastest lap with softs and an empty fuel tank... but max on mediums was STILL faster.
its a touch call for ferrari/merc right now. when do you go back to the drawing board for next season and give up this year, and experiment with some new setups. or do you still battle with eachother for 2nd/3rd. hoping for COTA... got tickets last week. Airbnb prices are ridiculous at the moment because its a relatively small city for an F1 race. so EVERYONE knows its happening.

Any predictions already?
Last week I thought this track would favor the Ferrari's, but having seen with what dominance Max won Spa, I tend to think that from now on every track is a Max track. Clearly RB and Max found improvement. Maybe it's just setting up the car (Checo said that part of the speed difference between him and Max was a different setup...), but the difference is real. I was also amaized by the speed of tyre degridation on the ferrari's and good tyre management from Max (Checo also had more tyre degridation than Max) My prediction: 1. VER 2. PER 3. LEC 4. SAI 5. HAM 6. RUS 7. ALO 8. NOR 9. OCO 10. RIC

Backwards driving in DAF cars(Dutch car brand)* like they did some 40 years ago. LOL
DAF cars have a a 'variomatic' gearbox. They can drive as fast forwards as they can backwards! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variomatic Cheers Robin

Two weeks ago, Bloemendaal, about just 1 mile(!) from the track. We had a very relaxing and very sunny sunday.
Cheers Robin

No unfortunately. A bunch of friends and my sis in law are there(also working)
But I love to watch it overhere in the local pub on a big screen. Last time I was at a F1 event was 2013 @ Spa. Shaking sir Frank Williams'(RIP) and Maldonado's and Bottas' hands @Williams F1. Cheers Robin
