Monza is amazing for the incredible straight line speed and overtaking opportunities. But Spa has speed, great corners and incredible changes in elevation. Imagine racing on that?

Pretty hyped for this one. Hometown race for Max and Spa is by and large the best track of the year.
Going to be interesting to see how the different strategies unfold. Think Lewis is in for a long afternoon, 6th is probably the best he can hope for but the Williamses and Force Indias will be tough to pass.
FFS Ferrari 
Like that is Nico has the race. 4 seconds already.
Rather exciting start to the race
It's in Nico's hands now that Max was slow and did his best to wipe out both Ferrari's in one action. Looks set to be a formality of a race now at the front. All the dropouts and incidents will have served Hamilton well mind.
EDIT - maybe that's more Vettel than Max by not leaving enough space?

best race of the season already.
Bit silly from Vettel.
Wow mental first lap!
Hamilton in 11th already. Talk about frantic start. Like F1 version of total wipeout
Ridiculous in my books. He turns in like there's nobody beside him.
Magnussen crashed!
Bloody hell, another one out.
Look at the state of the Renault, to think any driver can walk away ok after that is crazy.
Chaos
Watching since '98, just about biggest single car shunt I've seen.

That's about the worst I've seen.

Amazed they haven't red flagged it, the barrier is broken!
Hamilton will be loving this right now.
Hamilton is going to scrape onto the podium here now isn't he?
Red flagged. When they restart, is it in order already moving, or like the start of a race
Alonso and Hamilton get a free tyre change, proper 5th for Hamilton already.
Red Flag is for the best I think. Get the track sorted.
Well that was a chaotic 10 laps
Do they want one though? Those mediums will last ages yet.
Apparently no driver has won starting in the last row.
About two laps of racing so far!
Hamilton could actually win this
It's a 34 lap race now, they would be crazy to put on 10 lap old mediums back on it.
Think he had a better chance before the red flag, don't see how he beats Rosberg now his tyre advantage has been negated. Rosberg vs Ricciardo could be fun though.
They're on already though. They haven't shown them changing and don't the others still have to use them?
So Hamilton has two new sets of softs for the rest of the race, Rosberg only has 1. It's unlikely but if Lewis can make those last 34 laps he has a chance to win.
Yeah that's what I mean, they are 10 laps old and you have a free tyre change. Madness not to take it, they are 4th and 5th on track now.
Others don't have to use them, most will go Super Soft and Softs. Not many have Mediums here I don't think.
This race
only just switch this on after getting out of hospital.
How the hell did Lewis get from last to 5th in 10 laps?

You've missed carnage mate. I'd switch to C4 plus 1.

I will thanks, sounds like its worth watching.
Rosberg flying on the mediums.Dangerous driving from Verstappen, not for the first time.
Raikonnen dropping the f bombs.
