      It was good! My wife was away for the weekend with her mum so it was just me and the kids from Friday. Went to the science museum in Manchester, bike ride on Saturday and swimming, both kids seemed to have a great time! Also the F1 was on which helps.

        I went to uni in Manchester, still go up for gigs and club nights yet have never visited the science museum. Would you recommend it? Got a trip to the White Hotel planned in July

          It’s ok, it’s pretty small honestly, but it’s free to get in so not a bad way to spend an hour!

        Brilliant mate. Love sci museums. If you ever fancy going a bit further afield, Techniquest in Cardiff is an absolute banger; and the National Museum in Edinburgh is mint on the sci front too, and has a couple of 2010s F1 cars to boot.

        Enjoy your week dude.

          I enjoyed it, I had very low expectations given previous races but there was plenty going on with some decent overtakes.

          Putting more info below

          Tap for spoiler

          I was surprised that the McLarens couldn’t chase down Max, I thought they’d be all over him. Also kinda funny watching the Aston’s going backwards. Their upgrades must have sorted their qualy pace out but their race pace still needs work. Max drove a stellar race though, I’m not a fan but damn he’s good.

            Fair assessment. Big Max didn’t really put a foot wrong in fairness.

            The Williams were absolutely stellar though. Alex Albon has been shoving that Williams in places it really has no business being. It’s super impressive and Sainz has been solid too (giggity)

              Loving the Williams resurgence! I’d love to see them right at the top again. Things certainly seem to be moving in the right direction, finally!
