This bodes well for a long championship battle, even PER has closed the gap to VER

New TV graphics sucks. Ferrari engines are on another level. There is a Haas on P6, four tenths quicker than a Mercedes placed on P9. AND Max vs Charles should be a nice one. Let's see tomorrow.

Mick getting found out by Magnussen already
And stroll by the Hulk again lol
If Russel doesn´t have a technical issue in his car(which I firmly believe he does), this is the biggest "finding out" in F1 history. Firstly, Albon´s performance already suggested of George being massively flattered the past years and then Q3, what was that?!
No, he completely missed turn 1

Take it easy guys. Merc is running damage limitation with the front end lifted. Even though I think Ham nailed that lap with such handicap. Long season ahead.
Of course I struggle. I just don’t quit.

It's fair to ask what has he ever done in F1 that he has this reputation? Beat Kubica and Latifi? He was only slightly faster on race pace than Latifi

First race of his career as a full time Merc driver in a new concept car, 1 tenth down, and he is being found out?

Get over yourself :lol:

I´m trying to contain my words for how they managed to incorrectly display the purple sectors, specially.

Good to see Ferrari back near the top, if Mercedes can get on top of their issues we could see 3 teams battling for poles and wins. I wonder how forgiving leclerc or Sainz will be if max try’s a dive bomb up the inside.

Definitely. Need Merc there as soon as possible. Last time we had multiple teams in the championship was 2012 right?

Is Hamilton doing a Rossi tribute with all his day glo yellow?
Hes doin an hamilton tribute with yellow.. I do wish it was his original Senna tribute shade though
Well it looks exactly like Rossi’s shade and even font.

Anyway, super psyched with Ferrari’s performance - shame it’s such a draggy design… :lol:

Fair play to Hamilton though - doing the maximum with a car that’s not working is as much what a champion does as winning with a car that is.

He was 0.2 behind the whole of qualifying then he fluffed his last lap

Leclerc won’t give him an inch. There is genuine history there.
