    I'm going to replay Kimi's win last year so I have something to look forward to this year.

    absolutely. Bizarre penalty. First lap, Norris out of shape, Kvyat oversteer....Sainz unlucky to be there but was already hit by Norris.

    Perfect storm and a completely unnecessary penalty.

    yes I agree. But only one red bull is putting itself in that position to capitalize on a good strategy.

    For you merc fans yeh, anyone else, pointless. **** rules stop any improvement of the size needed. Merc had 3 to 5 tenths per lap in their pocket, and this circuit is a pretty good leveller, so that’s the true gap. Another boring season on the way

    It's early day yet to say that, but Ferrari is doing itself no favour so early in the season.
    Vettel was in better position last year at this point, so what's happening?

    Ferrari are lucky RBR only has one driver this year. RBR would be 2nd in the WCC if they had Ricci.

    yep. Need to look at Data but the gap between Verstappen en Gasly is around 9 tenths a lap still....in both quali AND race. An enormous and frankly embarrassing difference.

    I am actually surprised that Max did not take out Seb (especially after his strong words yesterday)... There is nothing left one can rely on

    Shoot, CL was cleverly PC in the interview. Binotto - there’s always next time. He’s right to be angry. Blah. The usual PC soggy pizza of an explanation.

    Perhaps they only needed a scapegoat to expire all the mistakes done.

    It hasn't worked.

    Apart from the wrong strategy, why is Ferrari technically regressing since the Barcelona tests?

    When they had their battle after the stop I admit I got a bit nervous...especially leading up to THAT corner. Will Max dive bomb him again? Will Vettel spin about and hit Max in the process? When they got past the spinning about bit Vettel and it got very close on the squeezy part I thought that was going to be it. 1 cars width was given and thank **** they both made it through.
