This is Kimi's track, therefore Kimi. But wait! Vettel closes in the final laps and gets team order "to take care of his engine". Vettel makes the pass for the victory.

The Haas cars stun with an incredible performance and KMag finishes 4th.

Again LeClerc drives an impeccable race and scores points.

I am interested to see if the mysterious power advantage that Ferrari pulled out the last handful of races will be sustained - and even then I am not sure if it is high-end power in the traditional sense vs. improved electrical power delivery coming out of slow corners. If the latter, it won't matter much at Spa.

I LOVE Spa!

If dry, Vettel... The Ferrari's aero is pretty slippery and those long straights will play into their strength.
If wet, Hamilton. He's shown that in the rain, he's virtually untouchable.

Hammy
Vettel
Kimi

What's the over/under for Max having an incident? He is now the defacto numero uno driver at Red Bull.

Oh yeah, Hamilton and Vettel to get new spec engines for this race, if that is going to influence your choice.

F1 is getting like MLB. In baseball I never know who the hell is playing for what team any more.
What I know about 2019 is that IF ALO is racing the whole Indy season I won't miss a single race!
