Formula One

Wow, both Mercedes break loose and into the gravel and fence in Q3 (Sprint) at the Red Bull Ring. Tomorrow's sprint qualifier will start: VER, LEC, SAI, PER.

Mid-July now and clearly seems that Ferrari's step forward is going to last through the season, and so is Mercedes' step back.

Also of late, McLaren seems to be dropping hard and Haas (!) is showing up every week lately as a rival for points.
