Pretty packed weekend with the WeatherTech Sports Car Championship at Laguna Seca and F1. It's been a busy week on this end, so I'll mainly leave F1 to the replay below -- crazy opening lap, but in the end Hams has taken the top spot in race wins after foiling Bottas not once, but twice in Portugal, nipping him on Saturday to take pole and running away from him on Sunday. Some strong performances from the usual mid-pack suspects, Leclerc made magic happen in the Ferrari finishing 4th and Gasly had another great showing taking 5th ahead of Sainz in the McLaren and Perez in the Racing Point. The mid-pack continues to shuffle and based on his strong showing so far this season, Gasly has officially been brought back for the 2021 season for Alfa Tauri. Vettel took the final championship point in tenth, which is significant given Ferrari is pretty deep in the standings currently. This weekend in Imola will be relatively short in terms of action as there is only one practice day scheduled, on Saturday ahead of qualy. This should be another entertaining weekend where Ferrari will look to have another decent showing in front of their home fans.

Enjoy your motorsport weekends.
