I wonder which route will be the first to be extended into the next century?

Austria - until 2041. As well as Miami.

The fourth-longest points streak in F1 history came to an end on Sunday 😲

This was Max Verstappen's impressive streak of 31 finishes in the points 📊

Never give up 💚

Nico's third-place at Silverstone was the Hinwil-based squad's first podium since Kamui Kobayashi's P3 at the Japanese Grand Prix in 2012 😎

And what is your favorite?
And the livery?

For me, W11 and W16, perhaps. And the livery is black. Mercedes for me is always a black car.

On this day 70 years ago, Stirling Moss won the British Grand Prix in Aintree, the first of his 16 victories in Formula 1, by just 0.2 seconds over Juan Manuel Fangio.

30 years since Fangio's death.
10 years since Bianchi's official death.

I don't like discussions about what to remember and what not. What to pay attention to and what not. Here, everyone is for themselves, for themselves and about themselves.

Age, place, circumstances... The case of Juan Manuel, who lived to a ripe old age, given the era, is in some ways as unexpected as Jules' accident was for some. Everything is different, the essence is the same. Mortal, sometimes - suddenly. In our sport - often suddenly.

Then - the route from posts by colleagues, relatives and fans, to children's coloring books. Or to "nothing", here it is optional.

I recently remembered Fangio, on his birthday, with the words of Enzo Ferrari. For Jules Bianchi, I don't see any point in picking something. Here's his father's post, in two languages. No one will have any questions about it.

The era of the introduction of halos, hans and their alternatives is the era of a series of deaths in different series. There are Jules and Dale Earnhardt. There are also Maria de Villota, Henry Surtees, Justin Wilson, Blaze Alexander, Adam Petty, Kenny Irwin Jr., Tony Rooper... Each of them paid the biggest price for racing to become a little safer.

But I still want it without such a price. Like with Fangio. At 84 years old.
