Belgium delivered its usual blend of excitement, strategy, and even post-race drama, with positions changing in the hours after the chequered flag.
Spa-Francorchamps tested our drivers, but also players of Pit Wall Predictions, presented by Gulf, who had eight questions to answer before the Belgian GP.
A high-scoring round means points for many, but how did you stack up against others, and perhaps more importantly, did you beat The Strategist?

See how you fared against other fans in the latest round of Pit Wall Predictions, presented by Gulf.
Q1 & Q2: On which lap will Alex/Logan make their first stop?
Nico Hulkenberg attempted an early undercut to trigger the midfield to end their first stint soon after his Lap 7 stop.
Alex and Logan's Lap 8 swap for Mediums was a double-stacker for our crew, meaning both were comfortably in the Lap 1-10 bracket.
That's two early wins for The Strategist and points for 32.8% (Alex) and 42.8% (Logan) of players, too.
Q3: When will our fastest lap of the race be recorded?
Logan's penultimate-lap overtake on Hulkenberg had car #2 record our fastest Belgian lap of 1:47.490.
That meant "Lap 36-Finish" was the correct answer here, just as The Strategist thought, with 32.2% of you following suit.
Q4: How many full Safety Car periods will there be?
The Strategist used the stop-start F2 and F3 races as their barometer for a Safety Car intervention, but the F1 drivers were far better behaved.
If you went for "Zero" like 36.9% of players did, well done, you wrong-footed our Grove Guru, who chose "One".
Fan Appreciation
Together, we are on a journey. We want to honour the fans that are following us every step of the way.
Q5: How many pit stops will our drivers make between them?
That Lap 8 double-stack stop had Alex and Logan switch from Mediums to Mediums, ensuring they'd be running a two-stop strategy.
No surprises there for 40.5% of you who correctly went for "Four", with The Strategist's "5+" selection not coming true.
Q6 & Q7: Which tyre will Alex and Logan end their races on?
Alex and Logan both concluded the Belgian round on Pirelli's Hard tyres, which proved a less common prediction.
Hats off to the 18.5% (Alex) and 19.7% (Logan) who foresaw this – or followed The Strategist's advice to choose the white-walled tyre as the answer.
Q7: Where will the leading Williams driver finish the race?
George Russell's disqualification didn't change the PWP grouping here, with Alex's P13 morphing into a P12 to keep points for the P11-P15 backers.
Congrats to the 58.1% who predicted this, along with The Strategist.
The Strategist's Score: 6/8 – A much-needed bounceback from The Strategist after the Hungarian GP's poor showing.
That score means they're among Belgium's highest-scoring 3.5% of players this year.
Most players took home 15 points or more this weekend, as 56.3% secured a 3/8 or higher.
Three of you even secured the illustrious Pit Wall Perfection badge by getting all eight questions correct.
One player can enjoy the summer on a high, sitting alone atop the standings with 285 points, 25 points clear of The Strategist, who has 260.
