Verstappen in front of Bottas, that's karma for the Fin  

[heywoodu 16,007]

Wow, what a hugely impressive final 15 laps for Verstappen, incredible 

 

Going from 10 seconds down on Massa to easily passing Massa, Hülkenberg and nearly catching up with Ricciardo..

 

Also, fantastic podium for Perez! Really happy that he's showing he's so much more than a "pay driver", although of course the Mercedes engine helped a lot here.

Great wins by Giovinazzi in GP2. He was very good last year in Formula 3, so i'm glad he has started showing his potential in GP2 too.

Kvyat crashes in the qualification in Austria, red flag with one and a half minute to go, red flag is over and immediately Sainz blows his engine. Toro Rosso

Interesting GP2 race in Austria: one half of the track is way too wet for slicks, but the other half is way too dry for intermediates  

[heywoodu 16,007]

Not a smart move by Ferrari, costing Vettel his podium chances.

Another war between Hamilton and Rosberg

 

And wow, 2 laps before the finish I was sure Verstappen would finish 4th, but he got 2nd

 

And Wehrlein getting a point, what a race

Again a Ferrari whitout points

3rd place for Verstappen in qualifying 

 

Best Dutch qualifying result in Formula 1 history, since Jam Lammers' 4th place at the qualifying for Long Beach 1980 (Verstappen equalled it this year) 

 

Lammers' crappy car broke down after 20 meters that time, I hope the Red Bull will be better

Huge, huge, huge amount of rain suddenly falling on Silverstone  

 

This is gonna be a crazy race
