And isn't that just ridiculous? Littering It was stated several times that wind was high and an issue on track. It could have very well been that the wrapper was put in a trash can and blew out. We have all seen that happen. |

Probably wasn't from a bratwurst with grilled onions. A local drag strip always used foil backed wrappers. Once wadded up, they stayed that way and didn't blow around like standard wrappers.

And isn't that just ridiculous? Especially since Brivio told Fernando to finish eating it before he climbed into the car! |

Still too early to verify if Honda's engine has any advantage or reliability. Toto and Mercedes always seem to have something up their sleeve that effectively neutralizes an adversaries potential advantage. Power modes for the Merc should be revealing in the coming weeks and I'm waiting till about the 5th race in to get an accurate assessment. |

I still think the Merc hasn't shown it's real top end yet and the ones with the LOOONG straights may show a huge difference between them and the RedBulls. Hopefully some other Teams, ie Ferrari, can showcase what they have too as the season goes on. |

The in car cams showed that everybody (Honda, Merc, Renault, Ferrari) were running out battery before the end of the straight in Bahrain. They were essentially flat and going into lift and coast. The Mercs were looking to be more draggy and down on speed compared to Red Bull but nobody had full power available.

^ That would make sense because losing the floor area has caused the team's to pile on the downforce in other more draggy places.

Didn't he leave F1 the last time because of the never ending car problems? I hope this isn't a recurring problem for him as I would love for him to show us some of his old WDC race winning self again!! |

Toto and Mercedes always seem to have something up their sleeve that effectively neutralizes an adversaries potential advantage. Power modes... It should be clear to all that Mercedes have power to spare when needed to defeat any challenge from any other team. And the inviolable nature of the "Concorde Agreement" over the course of it's term makes the current dominance of Mercedes guaranteed. Absent a change in power-unit architecture we are doomed to see nothing but the same.  |

Why would MBZ have taken that chance if not necessary? |

Why would MBZ have taken that chance if not necessary? Underestimated Max's progress? He told Bono to 'let me do it' and maybe that's what happens when you think you know everything. |
