With what is a contentious turn of events, Mercedes has clawed back lost ground to within 4 points from Redbull in the constructor's championship. This with one race to go before the summer break. Typically, Mercedes and Hamilton in particular tend to ramp up their performances after the summer break. To make things interesting, we are going to another Hamilton track in the next race.
The Redbull is still the quicker car. But it seems Mercedes has got closer at Silverstone. They are mighty on the straight again but still slower over a full lap.
Now the real question is " How would Verstappen bounce back from that scary crash?". I am glad he came out of the crash unscathed. But where is his mind at? Is he going to be ginger in future wheel to wheel tussle? Or is he going to be more aggressive?
Whatever the case, we shall see Verstappen and Hamilton in similar situations at most races the rest of this season. This here is where the title shall be won.Last edited by Nitrodaze; 20th July 2021 at 22:20.

I have understood the Hyundai has to be driven more agressively to be fast with it. Tänak has mentioned in many cases, that the car itself drives unnaturaly for him and he likes to drive differently....
