Mercedes is taking a lot of time to secure Lewis’ contract for the foreseeable future. Do the Silver Arrows plan to make it official after they have bagged the title this season?

Although the feat seems inevitable anything can happen at the last moment. Therefore, the Germans would like to keep everyone on their toes so as to ensure that they don’t slack off.

Banter is Mercedes’ bread and butter, after winning races of course. From trolling every team to coming up with crackers every day, the Silver Arrows’ Twitter game is truly immaculate.

Jokes apart, the teams rush into yet another novel track this year, Algarve International Circuit in Portugal. The teams are excited to see what the track has to offer and even more thrilled by the competition itself.

Red Bull breathing down the Germans’ neck, Racing Point leapfrogging McLaren, Ferrari still figuring out how to make their cars work it action galore in the paddocks.
