  • McLaren’s pace seems legit, which is cool, and fast corners at Spa should suit them even more than Hungaroring. Good job to the Woking boys.

    Aston Martin and Ferrari should have been better here, so a middling performance behind Merc and McLaren doesn’t look good. Maybe just putting all their eggs in to next year’s basket?

    Mercedes looked back to their usual performance levels after a great qualifying lap from Hamilton yesterday

    Alpine is such a disaster of a team, I want to like Enstone like I did in the 2000s with Alonso and early 10s with Raikkonen, but they’re just tragic. Today wasn’t even their fault, but it’s such an Alpine thing to happen.

    Perez was better today, especially on a track that’s hard to pass, but Ricciardo looked like he has a bit of a spark back. With Verstappen running away with every race I can’t deny that I wouldn’t mind giving Daniel a shot in the RBR at this point. Anything to make the battle for the lead a little bit different.

    Great Quali pace from Alfa Romeo turned in to a typically pointless race result. While the Ferraris, Perez, Russell and Alonso were likely to get by, Albon in the Williams should definetely not have finished ahead of them. Considering the money Audi is starting to invest in the team I hope they begin to see more results.



  • I’d be starting to think about picking up Piastri over Norris at this point. It’s his rookie year and he’s on a very similar race pace as Norris, maybe not got the ultimate quali pace yet. Norris took over a year to look this close to Sainz, and never consistantly beat him. He’s only going to get better and the McLaren is notoriously unbalanced so he can handle an imperfect car. He’s probably cheaper and not on as long a contract. Norris is still the better of the two at the moment but I wonder if he will be for long.



  • you CAN do it with any F-XLR to 1/4 Jack cable, but realistically it’s going to sound pretty crap. Guitar amps are designed to sound good with guitars, not replicate the human voice. The same reason a guitar through a PA with no speaker simulator tends to sound horrible. A little portable PA system or an amp that’s designed to be used like that (Roland Street Cubes are ideal) aren’t that much more expensive and will give you much better results. For a good, inexpensive vocal mic, I really like the sE V7.
