This crash in British F4 today 

 

17-year old Billy Monger hit Patrik Pasma who had stopped on the track with some issue. Pasma got out fast, Monger stayed in the car for 90 minutes before he was 'rescued' and brought to a hospital by helicopter.

Too bad, but when the brakes suddenly just give up, there's nothing you can do against it..

McLaren: "Fernando, we are considering Plan B, how are the tyres?"

Alonso: "Do whatever you want man."

More Alonso: "How can they pass me? They were like what, 300 metres behind me on the straight? I've never raced with less power...in my life."

Fun stuff going on with Verstappen and Massa/Brazilian fans. Massa got in his way in the qualifying lap (according to Verstappen), and when asked if he would talk to Massa about it, he jokingly said "nah, he's Brazilian so there's not much to discuss", hinting at Brazilians being, let's say, a bit 'passionate'. First thing that happens: Brazilian fans storm social media and call him every bad name in the book, pretty much exactly proving Verstappen's point

Hamilton only fourth in qualifying, is this real life?    Too bad the other one that took his spot is Vettel. I would settle for anyone else, bar those 2 to dominate, ughh. Let's go the finish attack today.  or Max if it's a weird race.
