The Bloke and A Bird Show

Once again the Silverstone gave us an absolutely mega race. It’s not often that a race makes us sit up on the edge of our seats - but this year’s British Grand Prix did exactly that.

But before we can get to the race, we have to catch up on the other off track drama - namely that there are still some people who need to be reminded that it’s 2022 and not 1922, and that is before we got to talk about the horrific interview that Bernie Ecclestone gave to ITV’s Good Morning Britain program this past week. An interview that you can find here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yf2fJsiuV34.

As bad as all that was - the folks at Alpine bring us a unicorn chaser this week in the form of their newly announced Race(Her) Program.

Could teams have found a way to skirt that floor stiffness rules?

Christian “Think Bigger Than Your Own Team” Horner doesn’t want F1 to make changes to F1’s aero rules around bouncing.

Seven protesters were arrested after entering the track in an exceedingly dangerous attempt to disrupt the race.

Everybody involved in a horrific crash has come away unharmed.

Ferrari once again makes some questionable choices, and Daniel Ricciardo is working with Hulu for a scripted F1 TV show.
