Voted Lewis at this time. It is his home race and that will make him 10 MPH faster than everyone else. I think he holds the advantage heading in to Silverstone. Will be hoping for a points finish for both McLarens as well.

Mercedes threatens to punish drivers - could be a significant fine or sitting out a race. They are still free to compete but with defined rules of engagement which in essence means they don't take each other out anymore.

I'd love to see JB podium here at silverstone. It is his home race after all and the one that has never come to him. Given that he may not have a drive next season it would be a fitting finish if he could make it to the podium. I guess that means it will need conditions like Austria and an act of God
