That has to be Mercedes best weekend for sometime on a track Ferrari were massive favourites on.
Hungaroring 2 months ago. Another track where Ferrari were expected to deliver and failed again.
Hamilton usually goes up a gear or two after the summer break and piles up the race victories, so that by the time Vettel strikes back, the championship is beyond him. As looks like happening again.
It's all very different from 6 months ago when Hamilton hadn't won in 6 races and all the gossip at the time was about a "lack of motivation" and imminent "retirement".
Ferrari have finally got rid of Raikkonen, and replaced him with a far more impressive driver, who won't be afraid of challenging Vettel and winning races next season. The future of the sport is less Hamilton v Vettel and more Leclerc v Verstappen.
