LawVS - The Ladder Man

Kimi Antonelli had the fastest car...but a cake tin ruined his race.

Silverstone gave us the strangest race of 2026...thanks to a software error. Leclerc ended a 37-race drought and handed Ferrari their 250th win whilst Verstappen's rear wing failed at speed for the second race running!

Meanwhile, Kimi Antonelli watched a 65-point championship lead shrink to 25 because of a part most fans have never heard of.

Who else won, lost or was just plain meh around the British Grand Prix?

Mercedes are leading handily...so why is Toto Wolff complaining about Ferrari?

Another F1 political war has begun! Wolff called Ferrari's spending "limitless" and it wasn't a compliment. Ferrari have declared 32 upgrades this year. Mercedes? 17. Then a team boss with two points fired back the other way. The cost cap was meant to level the sport...but all it's done now, along with the ADUO, is now call every single upgrade into question!

Audi's race pace in Austria was quicker than the cars that finished ahead of them.

But only 2 points and 9th in the constructors? Yikes...but there's one number from Friday practice in Austria AND Barcelona that shouldn't exist. On long-run pace, Hulkenberg's Audi was closer to the winner than the Racing Bulls who actually scored.

So either that number was a Friday illusion or Audi have built one of the strangest cars of this regulation cycle...a fast car that's fast in the wrong places.

Max Verstappen sat in the Silverstone simulator and started laughing.

Three races before the summer break...and the first one happens to be the track that tests battery efficiency harder than almost anywhere else on the calendar. Red Bull's Austrian upgrade looked handy, but Silverstone doesn't have the big braking zones that aided Verstappen's lesser battery to Mercedes' superior article.

This weekend could make Suzuka look adorable by comparison. Will Ferrari's upgrades be able to do something to aid their speed trap deficiencies against Mercedes and bring Lewis Hamilton toward a 10th victory around the circuit?

Here's my preview and predictions for the British Grand Prix.

Everyone's asking if Max Verstappen is going to McLaren...I'd rather ask why!

The Daily Mail broke a story claiming Verstappen held secret talks with McLaren about a move as early as 2027...but his manager didn't leave it at a flat no.

He said Red Bull needs "a car capable of winning." And Brown instead chose to talk about banana peels rather than closed doors.

Also, 3 key pillars of the operation that won 21 out of 22 races in 2023 are headed or are already at McLaren's base in Woking...which to me suggests the battle for third in the 2026 F1 season will have real consequences for Verstappen's future.
