Well that was closer than usual. The new car colors confuse me - I miss the bright yellow Renault and the Pink Tracing Point.
Yuki made history by scoring points.
I'm in a fantasy league for F1 and I have no idea how scoring works.
Go Lando and Danny!
Seb looks lost!
Discuss!

So far Seb hasn't found the reset button.

I fear Seb may be done. He continues to repeat the same mistake, again and again.

The new car colors confuse me... You think you're confused... Let me see... If I have this right, Force India became Racing Point and is now Aston Martin... Renault is now a Boombox or a car stereo... Toro Rosso is now Alpha Centauri (or something like that)... And I lost track of who Sauber is years ago... I'm too old for this... |

Under the lights in Bahrain I couldn't tell the Aston from the Mercedes............................................I guess nothing has changed.

I am sure I missed something somewhere; is this race in Shanghai? If so, why the hell does it have an italian name??

I can't figure out why his Engineers didn't address that...he spun several times in practice because the announcers said he 'was too aggressive on the throttle' why wouldn't his engineers address that thru the software? I guess he will have to learn how to control it on his own but for a newbie at the back of the pack anyway why not give him a break, he's not going anywhere as like Stroll daddy is paying the bills. |

Why do I get the feeling we're in for another HAM BOT VER with Hamilton 0.4s ahead in Q1, Q2 and Q3, fastest lap and win by 12s?

Personally, I am not looking at Hamilton and Verstappen results to gauge Mercedes vs. RB car performance.
I am looking at Bottas and Perez. When Checo consistenly beats Bottas both in qualy and race, we could then consider RB having a superior car.
Until then its all Mercedes BS to downplay their far superior car and cover for Sir Lulu for not winning qualy and races with significant extra change
PS: and I am being generous because Perez was a much better driver than Bottas when they both drove turds

Much as I dislike seeing Merc and Hamilton winning I like the thought of Red Bull winning even less. This is the team that acted the toadie for Mercedes and sent a letter to the FIA about Ferrari's engine. They had no idea what was going on because they are not engine builders and only got the information because it was handed to them so that Mercedes didn't have to appear to be directly involved. One of them is a corporate sleeze and the other is just a sleeze.

remembering the 16-wheel ’Monaco special’ version of the Tyrrell P34, designed by Derek Gardner to optimise front-end grip on the twisty streets of the Principality. Pic: Ronnie Peterson tried it in practice in ’77 but raced the regular 6-wheel version.  |

I know Peterson really liked a pointy front end so hopefully he was satisfied with this level of traction in his April 1 test |

"In principle, adjusting the rear wheels is prohibited, but Red Bull is said to have found a solution for this. By adjusting the flexibility of certain parts and making electronic adjustments to the differential, engine and brakes, the angle of the rear wheels in the corners could be changed"It's only prohibited in "principle".  So is murder.
