Will we see another ultra-consistent performance from Verstappen? Will Alonso finally get his 33rd? Will Lewis in the new Mercedes claim a victory, 16 years after his maiden win?

How will Ferrari bungle the strategy this weekend?

VER PER ALO is inevitable.

Charles will have a good start to the weekend, decent Q1 and Q2 and then his engine will blow up in Q3. You heard it here first :D

Is it, though? Aston Martin took a real step back relative the field in Spain, and Mercedes seems to be getting their car to work better as well.

Now we just need Mercedes to find a few more tenths, and for Alfa Romeo to have a miracle, and we can go back to the good old days of HAM VER BOT!

we don't really know. Alonso had a destroyed floor in Qualy and also had some contact at the beginning of the race. You're right tho. Never discount Hamilton. Bottas would be a miracle indeed.

I'm thinking Leclerc goes third or fourth in the FP sessions, qualifies in third, comes in for hards at a good point in the race -- at which point Ferrari fit his car with three hard tires and an extreme wet, and he drops out of the points.

Sainz, on the other hand, gets into a shouting match with his engineer, and makes up his own strategy, finishing 6th.

I dig this. Doesn't sound utterly outlandish for Ferrari.

Are we guaranteed to go on this weekend with the situation in Canada right now?

The forecast is rain all week so I don't think it will be a problem.

Start behind the safety car, then red flag, then two laps on inters, then a boring race on dry tires.
