2020 Tuscan GP - Mugello
We come to the first F1 race ever at Mugello, behind a sensational Monza race that presented the F1 world with a new F1 race winner in Pierre Gasly. On a Monza weekend where Hamilton was faced with some bad luck, his rivals failed to capitalized on it. Monza was a race that Bottas needed to win to re-establish himself as a realistic contender for the 2020 drivers title.
Equally, this was a race that Verstapenn need to win to close the gap right up to Hamilton, which would have spiced up the season. We go into Mugello with Hamilton still comfortably in the lead and Bottas back in second.
Mugello is Ferrari's test track normally. And this race marks Ferrari's 1000th race celebration, unfortunately in a season where Ferrari is faced with some adversity. This track is new to all the drivers on the grid with exception to Vettel, Raikonen, Leclerc and Giovinazzi. Hence it is interesting to see how the Mercedes fair on Ferrari's test track.
Mercedes and Redbull would be seeking to bounce back from a poor Monza weekend. Hence, this weekend presents Bottas and Verstapenn a great opportunity to give Hamilton a hard time. This is a historic race as the winner of this race shall be the first and only driver to ever win a F1 race on this track; as this track is not on future F1 calendars.Last edited by Nitrodaze; 11th September 2020 at 20:59.

Well Bottas blew his chances at P1 because he was too slow in his final out lap and let numerous cars go bye him. Smh
Good job Perez. Faster than stroll even though he doesn’t have the new aero parts. Happy with p5 for Leclerc

Could Stroll be more useless, out qualified by Hulkenberg and now by his teammate and Lance has loads of upgraded parts. Bloody hell, that’s team’s a fucking joke.

This is a trully great track. It has got everything, slow corners, fast curves, a fast straight and steep inclines. It is a racers track like spa and l bet the drivers love it.
This is the first track this season to let fans into the granstand. The ticket price must have been stupendious.
Redbull did a great job for Albon so far this weekend. Albon fourth and right behind Verstapenn is a great showing by Redbull.Last edited by Nitrodaze; 12th September 2020 at 20:50.

Hmm I think this incident was kimi’s fault. His car was out of sorts and steered into Gasly which then cascaded to other drivers
To quote the latest Dirtfish podcast.. Is Toyota is crisis ? Hyundai now lead them by 13 points and Neuville and Tanak are 1st & 2nd (=) in the WDC. Is their Driver line-up flawed, is the No...
