I was looking at Spa. I have to fly from Belfast or at a push Dublin. There’s a couple of local Belfast companies that offer packages. My sister was there years ago and loved it. I probably won’t be able to afford either because there’s 2 of us and it’s the cost of a holiday so not fair on my son who doesn’t like it . Trying to convert himWe are doing same,we got pissed off with Silverstone and are booking Spa, we decided to do it as a coach trip which takes ages but we have done them before and we just chill out and sleep .
Just waiting on a price from the company we usually use but would rather do that than mess around with Silverstone.
It's such a weird scenario. Red Bull have a giant junior driver program and yet once again Marko is seemingly saying none of their juniors are good enough and looking elsewhere. An even more puzzling thing to say when De Vries hasn't exactly set the world alight. I'm not saying that to throw shade on Nyck at all, just that given Marko was saying re the Herta situation 'we won't let Gasly go unless someone exciting can come in' that a supposed switch to them wanting to take De Vries instead of one of their juniors is really confusing (if true).this is sounding super close to happening
L'Equipe has a paywall but basically signing could happen soon (probably post funeral)

I feel similar about this all.I want Gasly to escape from Helmet Marko, but I also don't want Marko getting his claws in Nyck, who should sign for Williams, but I'm also not sure how good Nyck really is. He's getting the opportunity now because there is nobody else. But I recognise he'd be good for Williams if they can afford not to have the Nick's money.
Don't want to lose Yuki, Pierre can't lose his husband. It won't be right Pierre only gets to see husband Yuki at home when he isn't racing.I feel similar about this all.
Also I was wondering-what if Helmut wants Nyck to replace not Pierre but Yuki? Lack of news brings crazy ideas to my mind
Bingo... the coms guy from Williams I talked to a few weeks ago basically said Williams can't afford to pay anyone more.. and that's with latifi. He said they are just years behind tying to catch up with jost.I want Gasly to escape from Helmet Marko, but I also don't want Marko getting his claws in Nyck, who should sign for Williams, but I'm also not sure how good Nyck really is.

Depending on how early you book flights it would likely be cheaper to fly from Dublin, even including the lovely goldline bus. Mainly as NI have a higher APD than Dublin.I was looking at Spa.

It usually works out cheaper on a package. My concern would be getting to the track from our accommodation and back again. I just hate that with packages you’re restricted to their times of going to and leaving the circuit.Depending on how early you book flights it would likely be cheaper to fly from Dublin, even including the lovely goldline bus.

That is if you book it all separately yourself rather than a package.

We rented a car, not a bad drive from Liege, look into that if you are comfortable driving. Go early and the traffic is fine, chance to watch f3 and f2It usually works out cheaper on a package.

It would probably be the only time in his life that Nyck would be referred to as the 'taller one'!if nyck does go to alpha tauri i think that’ll be the shortest f1 team in history
