    Williams in trouble for DRS opening too wide

    Anyone else think Max has a chance of "completing" the calender? Singapore is the only circuit he hasn't won at of the current circuits
    Looks a lot more likely now he’s starting second. Red Bull seem to have really hooked their car up recently, at least with Verstappen in it. He’s not out of the title race yet.

    Both Williams cars DQed from qualifying. Will start from the pits

    Piastri sounding a bit whingy at the moment, does he seriously expect them not to race if one is ahead now?

    McLaren's management of this all season has been utterly shit again.

    I think its been surprisingly good, cant think that any other team would manage to get both more or less equal drivers racing.

    that was a shocker of a stop for piastri though

    Needs a safety car to liven this up

    Sigh... Stroll manages to do 40-laps on Soft Tyres; Pirelli really have f**ked up so badly these last few races.

    Great drive from George but what a snooze fest of a race

    George drove excellently but another borefest. Singapore is usually quite interesting but this had nothing.

    Might as well ditch the hard compounds, they won’t need them soon

    Give George Russell a new Contract, and then give him a f**king car to fight for a WDC!!!

    He'll be the next British World Champion

    Great for Bearman to get P9

    Russell at any other team would be signed until 2030 at least. Bizarre management from Mercedes.

    Unless someone stacks it into the concrete Singapore just isn't an exciting race.

    Needs to make up about 11 points per remaining race on Piastri. It'd take a catastrophic collapse from McLaren to let Verstappen in.

    Would like to see a bit of subtle colour on the thread pages…..pastel shades maybe, if there’s a choice.

    Fionn McLaughlin promoted straight from winning British F4 yesterday to a prime FIA F3 seat with Hitech. Feels like a huge leap but he's definitely got talent.

    Wow... Fully expected him to do GB3 first

    Shame its with Hitech in F3, given how Slater performed for them in Spa, compared with AIX in Bahrain, they don't necessarily seem the best setup - But guess it gives McLaughlin the chance to do a second season with Campos next year.

    Seeing similarities between Fionn and Arvid though, seeing they've both gone from F4 > F3

    I guess Red Bull as a programme don't rate FRECA as they never seem to bother with it. That F3 grid for next season could be absolutely spectacular, all the impressive young talents from series below seem to be graduating to it, think the only ones I've not seen yet are Nakamura-Berta and Seb Wheldon.

    I'd be surprised if Nakamura-Berta and Powell dont do a full season in FRECA first. Could see Seb Wheldon doing another season of Italian F4, I wonder if Oliver Wheldon will follow him over to the FIA route next season.

    Was surprised by a rejected Wiki post, at how full the F3 Grid is getting, although that shouldn't surprise as there is the first Post-Season testing this week. Imagine we'll get a few extra names in the Prema seats for example, what with only Enzo Deligny confirmed for them so far, and others like Louis Sharp linked with one of the other seats.

    Have you been watching FRECA this year? - Going to be an extremely good final round at Monza in two weeks.

    Mercedes finally confirm Russell and Antonelli for 2026. No idea on contract lengths .
