Redbull having engine issues reminds me of Toro-Rosso at the end of last year. Hope Renault hasn't started supplying them engine parts from the old parts bin.

Car looked ok from top speed point of view, but still think the battery is running out a bit earlier than other at the end of the straight. Gasly peaked at i think 295 and went back to 286, while the other cars keep building speed until breaking. Vandoorne got past Hartley (with a worn out tire) but that was with DRS and at the end of the straight, not in the middle of it like we used to see.
Red bull didn't have engine issues. Ricciardo had a gearbox failure and verstappen damaged his transmission after his puncture.
Ah my bad then. heard ricciardo saying it was an engine issue or something

Honda's best result since returning to Formula 1, only took Toro Rosso 2 races... =D>

Gasly is no longer unproven, the chassis looks good and Honda is apparently on par with Renault already, good futures for everyone involved in this result.

Is Bahrain GP considered a power circuit?

Honda and STR have proven me wrong, i admit it. But i do feel happy for them. Aparently Mclaren was too stubborn during the collaboration, on the other hand they are decent so far as well. We will see what the season will bring.
If i would get the money to start my own F1 team, i would revive Arrows

Thats extraharvest strategy from honda. Yeah, they still lacking in MGUH electricity, however its massively improved. Power wise Renault level already.

When arguing with a fool, be sure the other person is not doing the same thing.

Other Honda guys are probably celebrating elsewhere and eating sushi.

I can't believe it! Race pace was awesome!! Hope the improvements work well and we will see an amazing season!! A shame Alonso in pits when Gasly was only 0,9, I wanted to see and compare the speed at the straight.

Well done!! 😁😁😁

Did Mclaren pit just because they were about to be overtaken by TR? Because Alonso had the Mediums on and he wasn't supposed to pit again. Please someone tell me they didnt.
