Lewis Hamilton won a thrilling British Grand Prix yesterday ahead of Rosberg and Vettel. Both Williams had a really god start and Massa led the race until the first pitstops when Hamilton performed the undercut. Then the rain came down and Rosberg passed both Williams. Hamilton pitted at the right time, lap 43, for inters and so did Vettel. Vettel jumped both Williams in the pitstops as Bottas had to wait for Massa to finish.

Jules Bianchi has lost his battle for life following his tragic accident at last year's Japanese Grand Prix. I suppose, to a certain extent, it was expected - particularly after recent comments from his father - but it still comes as a hammer blow
RIP Jules - a fantastic talent taken way before your time

I suppose, to a certain extent, it was expected - particularly after recent comments from his father - but it still comes as a hammer blow RIP Jules - a fantastic talent taken way before your time A very sad loss from the world of Motorsport. Hopefully the appropriate measures will be taken to ensure something like this never happens again. |

I am gutted - He was an upcoming talent and what he did in Monaco last year amongst one of the slowest cars of the grid was something remarkable. RIP Jules  |

He would've driven for Ferrari in the future RIP Jules |

Jules Bianchi's funeral will be tomorrow at 10am (9am our time) at Sainte Reparate Cathedral in Nice. I think in Hungary, all the cars will at least have some black on them (teams like Manor and Ferrari may do an all black car), and i think all drivers would wear black armbands, all as a mark of respect for Jules. I also think there will be a minute's silence before the race RIP Jules  |

Lewis Hamilton won an exciting Belgian GP with Rosberg 2nd. Vettel had a tyre failure right at the end because he did a 27 lap stint. I think this was because the tyres couldn't take no more

I think this was because the tyres couldn't take no more That and he was one of many not bothering to observe the track limits at the top of Raidillon. Would have served him right if he'd cut his tyre going across the kerbs although the wear was more than likely the cause of the failure. Chuffed for Grosjean though - he deserved a podium |

You can't have races like Hungary all the time, but in my opinion this was the typical 2015 race but made a lot more interesting with the varied strategies behind Mercedes. Real congratulations to Romain Grosjean, he deserved a podium after a really difficult period for Lotus.
I personally don't see anything wrong with what Ferrari did in terms of their strategy. Whilst track limits may have played apart we must remember that Spa is one of the most demanding races of the season for how the tyres work. Pirelli need to do a better job especially on high speed tracks to make sure there isn't any structural failures which can have serious consequences. They have blamed the failure on 'Tyre wear', but from an F1 group Sebastian Vettel's laptimes were within one second of his personal best with no sign of visible drop off prior to the failure. A lot of drivers have had it with Pirelli and I think the FIA and teams need to get together to have a say.
On another note, it's sad to hear about ex-F1 driver Justin Wilson currently in a coma after being struck by debris during the IndyCar race yesterday. Thoughts are with him and really hope he can make a recovery!

Lewis Hamiton has won the italian Grand Prix, but it is in doubt as he and Mercedes are under investigation by the stewards due to low tyre pressures. He could end up getting a penalty or being excluded from the results. The stewards are still deciding what to do.
Rosberg retired with an engine failure 2 laps from the end whilst in third. Mercedes's first retirement this season and Nico Rosberg's first since Singapore last year. This enabled Vettel to finish a comfortable second

Sebastian Vettel won the Singapore Grand Prix, ahead of Riccardo and Raikkonen. No Mercedes driver finished on the podium as Hamilton retired for the first time this year due to a throttle problem and Rosberg came 4th. I was quite worried about the Mercedes's pace all weekend. I liked the Mercedes dominance. We shall see though what happens in Suzuka, the race that Jules Bianchi crashed and later died at last year.
