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.

Another McLaren double points finish surely isn't too much to ask for, right?
Right?
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.
Is it too much to ask for a Ferrari win?
As a Ferrari fan, yes.
Depends on what you are willing to sacrifice.
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 :/
Are we guaranteed to go on this weekend with the situation in Canada right now?
The forecast is rain all week so I don't think it will be a problem.
Oh so cancelled from flooding it is
LOL... some people just want to watch the world ~~burn~~ drown
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.
I'm looking forward to seeing Merc Vs Aston, trouble is Aston only really has 1 car lol
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.
I'm still not convinced mercedes is above Aston given how they performed well at Spain last year before dropping down again after. Did the upgrades work or does their car just suit that track still?
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
Is it, though? Aston Martin took a real step back relative the field in Spain, and Mercedes seems to be getting their car to work better as well.
Now we just need Mercedes to find a few more tenths, and for Alfa Romeo to have a miracle, and we can go back to the good old days of HAM VER BOT!
we don't really know. Alonso had a destroyed floor in Qualy and also had some contact at the beginning of the race. You're right tho. Never discount Hamilton. Bottas would be a miracle indeed.
I just want Leclerc to have a good race goddamn
Ferrari won the 24h of Le Mans. It is only logical to assume we're due for a big Ferrari fuck up.
Used up all their strategy last weekend. They really should learn how to budget
At this point, a weekend where everything goes along smoothly (him, his race engineer, pit stops and strategy) would look like a victory
Dude, I would cry tears of joy if that were to happen
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'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

Maybe VER ALO PER? Would be great to see alonso score a couple of good points
I'd love to see Yuki score some points this weekend. Let's go!
I hope for exciting practice sessions as they are the only ones I can afford to attend.
Max grand slam again
Yawn
I'm just looking for excitement. It's very telling that the "Top 5 Battles of Canada" on the F1 YT channel includes three three-way battles, whereas the "Top 5 Battles of Spain" had a "battle" from qualifying.
Anyone got a weather forecast?
Atm, rain Friday thru Sunday
Yay, fun rain or so there will be no race at all rain.
It says 1mm for now, so that sounds like fun rain to me!
Yeah, I’m going so I’ve been watching the weather closely. Looks like consistent forecasts for intermittent showers throughout the weekend. Should be fun :)
