BTW I don't understand why Spa-Francorchamps bans fireworks.

From my understanding this was all instigated by drunk fans sexually intimidating women or racist /homophobic outings or whatever.

What have fireworks to do with this? I don't think there were any fireworks related incidents?

Having red smoke (ferrari fans, since ages and ages) or orange smoke (Verstappen fans) is part of the F1 ambiance if you ask me.

Was there earlier in the year May / June time and you still had to wear a mask on public transport, Trains, underground etc. So maybe they are just being safe by wearing the masks as a mass gathering such as in the photo could have some big implications for the drivers and senior team members if they went down on mass.

The latest weather forecast :

Thank God the fire in the sky will be over for the race weekend ...
Saw today : 36°C in the shade and 50°C in the sun !

Currently the heat is insane ! Can't stay for 5 min. in the sun because it hurts on the skin ...

But just in time , from tomorrow the temps are going back to normal ..
I truly hope this was the very last heatwave of the summer !
I got enough from the sun !

For the race weekend it looks like we can breath again , Thank God !!!

Yep .That's P20 for Charlie !

He will start from the back of the grid, while enjoying a fresh engine and above all an updated hybrid, MGU-K and updated battery.

This won't be his last PU ...Too bad !

I hope Checo has more synergy with the car after the summer break than he had the last few races. It's still unclear what happened to him after the beginning of this year when he seemed so well matched with the car and almost on par with Max. Now there is a distinct gap between the two.

I'm going with a wildcard here - not confident that Alonso is even going to try for Alpine any more.
