Will we see another ultra-consistent performance from Verstappen? Will Alonso finally get his 33rd? Will Lewis in the new Mercedes claim a victory, 16 years after his maiden win?

How will Ferrari bungle the strategy this weekend?

    I just hope to see a good midfield battle between AM, Ferrari and Mercedes, since I can’t really see anything except a Max win on Sunday. He is just on another level.

    Are we guaranteed to go on this weekend with the situation in Canada right now?

      Not necessarily guaranteed, but the officials have assured us fans that the wildfires will not have impact significant enough to endanger folks nor cancel the race outright as of this time.

      Wind isn’t blowing south at the moment. So the skies are pretty clear in Montreal. Even when New York was super yellow, Montreal was relatively fine as most of the smoke went around Montreal. Plus the rain that we’ve been getting I’d helping out a lot.

    Max will win unless his car breaks. Still, things behind him have been getting more interesting this year, so let’s hope for more of that.

    I’ll put my money on another Verstappen win. I hope Perez can get his act together.

      Verstappen seems damn near unstoppable at the moment. RB got a fantastic car and his raw skill is incredible. Would like to get some sort of an upset, though. Having the same guy win every time gets kind of boring. Felt the same with Hamilton a couple of years back :/

    I need to see Aston Martin unveil the most illegal, protest-inducing, send-Newey-into-a-coma upgrades and for it to rain so my boy Lance can get that maiden win.

      I have to say, I’ve really turned around on Stroll this year. Seeing him drive with mangled hands and wrists early on was pretty heartening, and seeing him improve has been neat - fingers crossed the green bull comes through for him 🤞

    After Aston’s bad weekend in Spain, I’m hoping they can bounce back with an Alonso podium. Mercedes’s performance looked promising in Spain, I think it’ll be a fight between Hamilton and Alonso for the final podium place behind Verstappen and Pérez.

    VER PER ALO is inevitable.

    Charles will have a good start to the weekend, decent Q1 and Q2 and then his engine will blow up in Q3. You heard it here first :D

    I’m still rooting very hard for Mercedes. If Canada works out very well again, I think it will set a very different tone for the rest of the season
