He’s HulKENberg now 😂 (stole that off Instagram but made me laugh. OT but Ryan Gosling as Ken was brilliant btw).

I’m excited for DR but agree it is getting quite tiring but then again what else are they supposed to post about? There’s no battle for either Championships.

It's to do with tyre allocation, basically they get less tyres and the tyres they use in qualifying are mandated compounds rather than free choice.

It's official known as an Alternative Tyre Allocation (ATA) weekend.

Meant to save the amount of tyres they're using. They've got 11 sets instead of 13, and they're going to be made to use every single type of tyre.

In Silverstone for example Hamilton and a few others didn't use a single hard tyre. Massive waste in transport costs and fuel.

Anyone else think George looks at Lando’s recent results and screams into a pillow “it should be me!”

Max is gonna have absolutely no chill tomorrow at the start and I'm scared Lewis will get taken out 😂

He's such a sourpuss when he isn't winning and dominating everything

He doesn't want to race, he wants to win. Grinds my gears.

Today proved the love Lewis still has for the sport IMO.

Crazy that record has stood since the 80s when you consider the Ferrari/Schumacher dominance and then Mercedes in the last few years as well.

Max can hop out and go for a wee during a pit stop and still win at the rate he’s going.
