Lewis pretty much admitted McLaren won't be fighting for the win at Silverstone

Lewis thinks his car will go slower at the next race? Strange thing to say?

Red Bull has so much downforce. Silverstone is a circuit that heavily relies on downforce. Vettel owned Silverstone in 2009 and 2010 qualifying and was supreme on race day after his L1 accident. Can only see a 1-2 from them there.

Button just summed up the race as we saw it as well. He found it boring as well!

What a boring race... I even wanted that Alonso attacks Vettel as a Vettel-fan :roll::

And in Silverstone DRS won't be effective as well because we don't have a long enough straight

The Hangar straight is pretty long. Wellington is sufficient enough. DRS isn't meant to be a free pass, but to close them up.

Silverstone's weather can make things exciting.

Next year all drivers should drive with these on. That would give us some entertainment!
And probably some safety cars as well.
