Bet Bottas is feeling quite smug at the moment. Lewis looks massively out of sorts and comprehensively out qualified by George. They seem to cured porpoising but a miles slower as a result.

I think their issues are much greater than porpoising. The Ferrari porpoises but it's still very fast.

Bottas should feel good with making a solid decision in his professional life that has led him to stability and relative success (for now)

Great race, well played by Max, Perez double unlucky but looks like Max and Leclerc had the pace over their team mates.

Love Drive to survive……I actually like Horner, makes me laugh, pure entertainment
Prefer Toto though, far more professional and a gent

I’m still confused on the ending of the last season GP, Masi was fired so that means he bent the rules no?
Should that have stood?

by the way I don’t like Hamilton and I’m glad he lost that as I don’t want him bettering Schumacher but just felt that was odd

With 2 DNF hardly I would say. Ferrari is clearly the better car.

Totally missing my point there, but it's ok.

With the budget cap I imagine the teams are pushing more funds to one side of the garage than the other.

Yes, totally missed your point as it could have referred to 3 parts of my comment… but given that Perez got pole in Jeddah and has been very close to Max in all sessions this season I hardly think that Red Bull are concentrating on one car (yet). At Ferrari I’m not so sure as they like to play games - but on the other hand Charles has been consistently faster and I’m sure Sainz would have squeaked if he felt Charles was being advantaged. Time will tell.

First sprint race of the season with some excitement at the start and some at the end. Good drive by Sainz from 10th to 4th will set up an interesting race between RB and Ferrari tomorrow. Mercedes nowhere to be seen.
