I was just praying for both of them to end up in the wall.
The Malevolent Little Gargoyle and the 'Orrible Little Man.
Which one is which…?

Well, seeings as Mansell's own team manager* at Williams still refers to him as an "orrible little man"
* I have this on good authority, as he's a client of my bookseller friend.

Just away from F1 I see Bennett's British Superbike competitor Chrissy Rouse died from a crash over the weekend.
Apologies it is a Mail link.

I was reading elsewhere that Ferrari believe that Red Bull won't get penalised for their budget overspend ! If this happens then it would be a complete farce ! 
Might as well paint all the car's in Red Bull colours so that they can be assured of a win !

They have to prove it first I presume it's going to be a loophole that RB have found, one of those it's not actually written down but in the spirit type of things, which RB's defence will be it's not written down so it doesn't count.
I'm still not 100% convinced they're not manipulating that floor in some way, bit like the Toyota turbo, you can measure all ways backwards & it fits in to the rules, but only when being used under race conditions does it occur when it can't be measured. Although the F1 paddock is such a small group like WRC is/was word will get out eventually if it is.

The rumour is that Red Bull have found a way of lowering the rear suspension during a race to enhance the ground effect.

They do seem to have some trick which no one has figured out yet .

Why over two tenths difference between Russell and Hamilton?
Hamilton being the slower.

Gone for a race setup rather than pole, the RB's look like they may eat their red wall tyres, seeing how slow they went on their out lap. Wouldn't be surprised to see Mercedes start on yellow, hoping everybody else goes red & that Ferrari take the fight to RB, so they can then stay out longer & gain position.

Gasly's just signed for Alpine, and De Vries has picked up the vacant seat at AT alongside Tsunoda.
Gasly and Ocon don't get on terribly well, so fully expecting another Mansell v Piquet handbags at dawn kind of thing. Although unlike the first all-french pairing in an F1 team since 1994, Piquet was - and still is - the master of the nasty insult.
