(Belgian GP) Well that was something... Photos and a bit of text from a weird day at Spa

Well, that was new…

A rather bizarre Sunday at Spa saw a “race” happen, but left almost everyone frustrated, with a few exceptions at the head of the field, especially podium debutant George Russell.

As good as it would get...

As usual, kudos to LAT Images, Getty Images, DPPI, Motorsport Images, Sutton Images, and XPB Images.

And also thanks to McLaren Racing, Red Bull Media House, Mercedes-Benz Grand Prix Ltd., Williams Racing, Alfa Romeo Racing ORLEN, Haas Uralkali F1 Team, and Aston Martin Cognizant F1 Team.

Without them, our work would look so much poorer.

Glenn Dunbar (Motorsport Images) with the fantastic capture.

The pinged names asked to be notified, so I am honouring their request. If you dig F1 photography and a bit of F1 writing, let me know and I will add you to the list.

I organized everything I shared here on Imgur regarding motorsports so far: https://imgur.com/a/6lToMDG

@Tally, McLaren took too long to publish their photos, so I made a new post with their stuff, as I cannot add stuff to this one: https://imgur.com/a/P887HAZ

Those poor fans....

I really love this head on shot from pit entry in the wet.

You can barely make out the other car...

Bernd earned his money today. The SC probably needs to have its 100,000 km service after this weekend.

Wider angle also works.

Seriously, this looks like miserable conditions to spend your day.

Let's go portraits? The photographers had a lot of fun in the pit lane today.

That helmet colour!

That CANNOT be comfortable.

"I hate this"

"Cannot believe I got up for this"

Honey Rider being tended to.

My level of drawing.

Not a bad job.

Franz is not pleased.

Yuki passes the time

Franz guarding over his charges.

Gasly salutes (get it? Salud/salutes? no? crap...) the fans.

He is still cuteness personified.

Photographers passing the time.

Not sure what the protocol is for national anthems, but I guess I would close my umbrella.

"why is everyone on Sergio's side of the garage?"

50 races together ending with a win. Let's celebrate!

Fixing Pérez's car.

These guys worked hard today

A win is a win.

But this man EARNED his podium. Beat Hamilton on Saturday fair and square. Was happy to see him celebrate it.

And Nicholas scoring as well means consecutive double points for Williams! ON THE WAY UP, BABY!!!!
