I have always loved Monaco for the history, but I think it just doesn't work as a Formula One track in the modern age. Watching the freight train go around has lost it's appeal.

Yup totally I've seen more exciting marble alleys  , and Alonso playing silly buggers purely to spite Hamilton was not his finest hour. Perez signing on for two years is good he is a very likeable and talented boy. I look forward to him, Leclerc and Sainz having some great racing together.

I suspect next years negotiations at AMG are going to be quite different now. I thought George would be good but he has also been consistently quick, smart and PR gold as well. Excellent. No tie & dye outfits or metal bits hanging out of him. Looking forward to seeing how that goes. Anyone want a bet that Hamilton aims to get into a Ferrari seat? Alistair, how could you? What on earth would I do if The Gangsta jined my team. I supose there is always Alfa!!
Here for a good time not a long time!!

Never said I liked the idea reg!
Everyone loves a Morgan. Even me, unless it's broken again.

Perez signing on for two years is good he is a very likeable and talented boy. I look forward to him, Leclerc and Sainz having some great racing together. Well spotted +8Rich - so, no seats next year at Red Bull, Ferrari, or Merc (unless Lewis retires, which would be a surprise). Slots up for grab at Alpha Tauri, Aston, Alpine, Haas & Williams? (Gasly, Vettel, Alonso, Shumacher, Latifi?) We're well on the way to a 6-way battle at the front for the rest of the season... Mercedes are going to get closer in qualifying as each race passes, and their race pace is now there or thereabouts. And with both drivers - who'd have thought George would be 5-3 up in qualifying, and ahead on points?! https://gpracingstats.com/seasons/2022-world-championship/qualifying-stats/

Sluggish though the Merc may be, to George it probably feels amazing compared to the Williams car. At this level the mind is a very powerful player. Georges head is the right place.

Good point, he is super hungry too and maybe Hamilton has lost his appetite after last years final race debacle where he will always be the moral victor and Verstappen the pretend champion.

I think you’ll find that Lewis is taking the lead with setup changes , to try and find the cars sweet spot
His ex race engineer is one of my customers….

I agree with Simon H and Pauly G - Lewis really needs to get the car "Working" for him and that in turn will get his head back in the game - the second half of the season will be exciting particularly as Mercedes always seem to do better in the latter half of the year anyway.
Cheers, Paul
