CANADIAN GRAND PRIX - VERSTAPPEN AND RED BULL TOPPED IT, AS TEAM MERCEDES THREATENS THE CHAMPIONSHIP LEADERS!

-

 







Max Verstappen is undoubtedly a Formula 1 racer of distinction, and one who is clearly fated to win another Drivers' World Championship, including the current one, barring any unforeseen developments during the second half of the season. 

So his winning of the recent Canadian Grand Prix is not unexpected. Providing Team Red Bull continue to provide Max and Sergio with reliable cars, while their nearest competitors, Ferrari and Mercedes remain significantly off the pace.  

The Red Bull duo can be predicted to have somewhat of an assured racing towards the Driers Championship.

At the same time, the outcome of the Canadian Grand Prix, with Verstappen, Carlos Sainz and Hamilton taking the respective honours, suggest that the conclusion of the 2022 Season is likely to end somewhat differently from how it had started. 

We have seen how Team Red Bull and Team Ferrari laid down the competitive markers, suggesting a likely two teams and 3 cars competition. 

At the same time, we have seen how both teams have, rather dramatically, experienced damaging substantial points losses. 

Due to car unreliability and under performance  issues, which have probably been impacting Team Ferrari more than Team Red Bull. A malady which saw Charles Leclerc finishing at P.5 in Sunday's race, while Sergio Perez had a dnf.




However, because of the pace of the Red Bull Ferrari's cars, they have been much better placed to make up their points deficits.  

Compared with Team Mercedes, which has, at least until their most recent race, the Canadian Grand Prix, more deep-rooted and difficult to resolve pace and performance problems.

It is not surprising that, with Team Mercedes being able to deploy and maintain their strongest challenge to to the Red Bulls and Ferraris to date.  

The Canadian Grand Prix provided many exciting and adrenalinised moments, and was all together a very enjoyable race. 

It has been a race from which Team Mercedes can take a lot of satisfaction, in seeing evidence of their smart working paying dividends in terms of better pace and performance. 

For probably the first time, they can move from 'hoping' to having confidence that their car is nearly ready to take on the Ferraris and Red Bulls. Head to head. 

That kind of psychological high just has to be transformed into race winning performance from Hamilton and Russell.

For now, however, let me say A Very Big Congratulations to Team Red Bull and Max Verstappen, and to Team Ferrari and Carlos Sainz and Team Mercedes and Lewis Hamilton, for making it to P.1, P.2 and P.3, respectively.

As we get ready to experience the British Grand Prix of 2022.

JUST A THOUGHT - ARE PRISONS A SYMBOL OF A PUNITIVE SOCIETY? THE END....

By increasing the number of statutes by which citizens can be criminalised. So as to provide a sufficient supply of inmates for the prison population.   As we have seen, for example, in the United States of America. The so-called most advanced country in the world.   But also undoubtedly, probably the most retrograde one, when it comes to the manufacturing of criminal laws, and administration of 'crime and punishment.'  Since, not only does it make having more prisoners as a necessity, in order to keep the private companies holding and processing them, and the 'law enforcement departments, in business.  But it also encourages corruption amongst all those involved in the crime and punishment industry, through the quest to generate income and profits. Objectives which they seek to achieve by brutalising inmates and increasing their prospects for having to pursing a criminal career.  By ensuring that inmates being discharged from the prison industry are l

THE ISRAEL/PALESTINIAN WAR AND HOW ISRAEL'S LATEST ATROCITY MIGHT HAVE SEALED ITS EVENTUAL DEFEAT! P.4.

   It is unlikely that things were ever getting better. But, at least the Palestinians were alive, they had their homes, their roads, water, electricity, the basic requirements for having at least a basic life.  They had more freedom of movement in their 'reservations' than they have now, with the storm troopers crawling over and around them as so many wasps.  So, yes, it is likely that, for the majority of Palestinians who are being forced to pay the price the Zionist Israeli State has decided to extract from them, the attack of 7th October might be considered to have been a tactical mistake by Hamas and the other Resistance Fighters. And yet, it could be the case that the overall and eventual outcome of the attack for the Palestinian people will be a positive one. It has broken the then impasse, the stalemate in progressing the realisation of a sovereign and viable Palestinian State.  It has forced the nations and international organisations, ordinary people of the world to t

THE ISRAEL/PALESTINIAN WAR AND HOW ISRAEL'S LATEST ATROCITY MIGHT HAVE SEALED ITS EVENTUAL DEFEAT! P.1

  So, what are my thoughts about Hamas' unprecedented attack on parts of Israel, which has resulted in hundreds of men, women and children, some of them soldiers, being killed and thousands of Israelis becoming shocked and traumatised as they have probably never experienced before? And what are my thoughts about Israel's Zionist government's brutal and merciless counter-attack on, not just Hamas' fighters and military, but on all Palestinians and their social, economic and essential infrastructures in both Gaza and the West Bank? The egg did not come 'out of nowhere', and neither did the chicken. Everything of substance and significance has a context which can help us to define and understand it more than we could or would be able to do, without that context.  This principle also applies to Hamas' attack on Israel, just as how it applies to Israel's subsequent and continuing attack on the Palestinians. And so it is that Hamas' attack on Israel was a

CONTEMPLATIVE MOODS - IF LIFE IS A B..... THEN CHECK OUT SOME CLASSICAL MUSIC BEFORE YOU DIE!

So, if life were a bitch and then we die, need we say or do or think anymore of the matter? If life were a bitch and then we die, might we not surmise that it be our duty to screw life before we die, that we might gain some small pleasure, some small satisfaction from our life the life we live, before we die? But of course, some of us might as some point, consider that it is life which screws the living and not the living who does the screwing. And, in the knowledge that the term screwing can have an ambivalent meaning, in that it can mean participating in an event from which we derive pleasure, as well as being used as a pejorative term of abuse.  So it is that life and living can be both pleasurable and miserable to us who are required to endure it. To live it, to savour it. And so it is that I wish to comment on the beauty of music, with which we can fill many moments of our lives and our living with. Music, said the song, is the food of love. Yet, we need not
