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.

We've been waiting for this weekend all off-season -- the start of the 2019 F1 season. F1 testing sessions up 'til now show Ferrari with the edge, Merc getting things together and Red Bull ironing out kinks with its packaging in order to maximize the new Honda power plant. Haas and Renault look to battle it out in the mid-field and McLaren has some pace which they hope to prove is real this weekend. Meanwhile, the IMSA 12hrs of Sebring is also taking place this weekend, as well as a World Endurance Championship race on the same circuit. This should be a great start to the full motorsport season.

On a sadder note, our thoughts go out to Charlie Whiting's friends and family, as he passed away this week. Charlie went from a Brabum engineer in his younger days to becoming the F1 Race Director, overseeing high level motorsport for decades. He not only watched over races, but worked with teams and drivers on regulation nuances, requirements, safety regulations as well as working with the circuits themselves to ensure they were as safe as possible for each event. He'll be missed, to all of us motorsport fans as well as everyone in the motorsport world that relied on his technical acumen and effectiveness in his multiple roles.

Enjoy your motorsport weekends.

We find ourselves heading to Germany for the next round of F1, a week after three back to back races. The first of the three was won by Lewis Hamilton after Merc brought an upgraded power unit to France. The second of three was won by Max Verstappen in Austria after Merc brought aero upgrades which made them fast, but in spite of that pace suffered mechanical failures on both cars for a quite costly double DNF, all while Ferrari continued to rack up points. The last of the three races was won by Vettel in his Ferrari at Silverstone, after Hams took pole only to be spun around by a hard charging Kimi on lap one of his home grand prix. Hams made a miraculous push back to finish on the podium in second, but could only limit the damage so much since Vettel took the checkered flag. Heading into Vettel's home grand prix, Ferrari leads the Manufacturers Championship and the Driver's Championship standings are as follows: Vettel, Hamilton (-8), Raikkonen (-55), Ricciardo (-65), Bottas (-67), Verstappen (-88). All to play for this weekend, Red Bull still looking quite strong, Mercedes looking to bounce back in their home Grand Prix and Vettel and Ferrari look to stretch the lead over the Silver Arrows. Should be another great one.

Enjoy your weekends.
