There are 12 corners and some nice mountain scenery in the background. Oh, and there is a massive statue of a bull.
Preview finished. Do I get the job of doing previews every race? ![]() |

Practice turning out expensive so far (especially according to Mr Horner, who reckons three front wings is a quarter of a million quid).
Spielberg bites! |

After last weekend, I'm not sure if highlights on C4 are preferable? F1 has become a predictathon.

Well, at least by the sound of FP we’ll see lots of cars pitting for new front wings!

It's clear that this track punishes people more for pushing over the limit. So it seems track limits will hopefully not be too much of a problem
Well done Leclerc for going fastest in FP2, also go to see Gasly up there too. Let's see if he can stay up there |

3 place grid penalty for Hamilton so it's a Leclerc-Verstappen front row

I’m afraid it will still be boring. I suggest you don’t watch it.

As usual in recent motor races we must wait for the stewards to tell us the result of quali

Leclerc, great effort from him. Gasly underwhelms again, can’t see him surviving beyond this season. Hamilton’s penalty, you can’t complain about inconsistency from the stewards now

At least the Mercs are going to have to work for a victory this time! Great to see Charles on pole, and Lando starting P4 after penalties applied, but with Lewis right behind...
LH has held his hand up over the incident leading to his penalty, so maybe the stewards got it right? ![]() |

Beeb quote- “Hamilton’s penalty drops him to fourth, for arcane reasons we don’t need to go into here.....”
![]() Shame, as was looking forward to seeing of Norris could hold LH off for a lap or two. Given that the former is usually fairly cautious at the start, perhaps it would be a fairly quick place swap. |
