F1 Official Thread - Grand Prix of Britain

Really loved watching Lewis take Frank out for a couple laps, looked like he really loved the entire experience. Always sad thinking about how far the team has fallen.

I’ve still got to watch Button taking out the BGP 001 on Sky’s preshow. Very much looking forward to watching that.

Hamilton British GP silverstone hat is arriving on Friday or Saturday.

These are my LH hats so far. I only buy the ones I like. Can’t wait to see the final hat for 2019, I think there is only 4 this year.

May grab the Shanghai one if I find a good deal on them.

Lewis extra point at the end
Finally extending the stint worked for the first time

What a race! So many battles! Awesome.

Vettel though...

LH hauled *** on 30+ hard tires.

Been such an entertaining race,had a little bit of everything today

Seb looks washed while Leclerc just keeps looking better each race

Yep, only a matter of time until Charles gets his first W

What could have been in Bahrain.

No Idea, Sky Sports F1 now have a YouTube channel.
Much better than their native media player. I can finally ditch that.

Carbon Fibre - Check
Signed by Mclaren - Check
1 of 1 Prototype - Check

Yo that could be worth a lot at some point

Lovely collection.
I love the turquoise one. First time seeing that denim looking one too

Funny how Lewis was labelled as the tyre eater and then he pulls something like that. Amazing

He made me a fan on Sunday. Shows how quick of a learner he is after Austria and assuming Mercs can't challenge Ferrari in Monza, I want that to be his first win. That would be special.

The future is almost set up. All we need now is George Rusell in the Mercedes and we would have 4 of the best youngsters in the top teams.

 

[salacious crumb]

Thanks. The denim hat is the 2017 British GP hat. Has the UK flag on the bottom of the bill.

 

[salacious crumb]

Hyped that the 2019 British GP hat is here earlier than expected.

 

[Sinner]

Still LOL.

very nice! Montreal and Monaco are some of my favorites.
I definitely need the 2019 Spain and Silverstone caps. But I'm hoping to get them on sale. Got too many already

Shanghai cap looks quite nice too, but not sure if I like the "Shanghai" writing on the front.

 

[Sinner]

This was pretty funny.
Backstory: Lando, Max... and two other sim racers named Max participated in a Spa 24h sim race over the weekend. They totally outclassed the competition and lapped the entire field. With a gap of over 3mins to P2, 15mins left in the race and Max driving the final stint, this happened... Lando streamed the whole thing on his Twitch account.

Same here with the “Shanghai” on the bill. It’s nice that embroidered but I’ll wait it out for a discount to grab it. I like the red on it otherwise.

One off livery

 

[blazers21ntnp]

That 125th anniversary livery looks amazing! From the teasers, I thought the whole thing was going to be predominantly white. I love how it breaks off from the past into the current.

The car would've looked amazing in full white retro livery with red accents.

 

[kanyeezy411]

Would’ve loved matte silver with red numbers

Would be very cool to see the current car dressed as a W196.

This.

Makes a lot more sense when you hear the back story.
I heard it was their 200th anniversary though or am i wrong.

Yes, getting rid of the white lead paint to meet weight restrictions; the livery does a masterful job of telling that story.

Everywhere I’ve seen is saying 125th, including their own IG:

 

[D Double]

Oh, we're both right . 125 years in motorsport and their 200th GP as a factory team.

 

[salacious crumb]

OG logo on the helmet is nice too.



I wish the red numbers were back the whole season and as in previous years instead of just this weekend.

Yup, I hadn’t heard the 200th GP bit until Buxton mentioned it on Paddock Pass.

 

[pmtotheam]

Not a Ferrari fan but I'd like to see Vettel actually win this weekend lol
