The number font on the Ferrari is so, so awful

 

That rear number and green Mission logos look really out of place on what is an otherwise pretty nice Ferrari livery.

 

May have been a bit too hasty, some of the liveries look lovely on telly. Williams is miles better in motion than in those renders.

 

I thought the Williams might look a bit better on a circuit, particularly if they get a sponsor on the engine cover. The Alpine looks very nice.

 

Just happen to be in Bahrain the next month for work. Was able to grab tickets for the season opener, it will be my first F1 race . I am beyond hyped.

 

That's awesome. Are they allowing many fans in for that one?

 

It’s limited capacity, and you had to have proof of vaccination in order to purchase tickets. So it feels about as safe as an event could possibly be right now which is the only reason I felt comfortable with going.

That was a great read, makes me enjoy the Gasly redemption tour over the last year or so even more.

 

Surprised he's sounding off about Red Bull quite that strongly while he's still in their employ. Doubt he'll be there as of next year. Certainly doesn't sound like he fancies going back to the main team, does it...

 

Anyone been watching Drive to Survive? They've made some really strange choices in how it's presented. There's no sensible chronology to the episodes, so the context of what has happened in the season up until whatever point in the season it is is lost. It's quite disorientating.

I'm through the first 4 episodes and wow Ferrari looked like no fun at all last year....

 

Lewis p1 already after one lap


Being serious though, that car is understeery as hell

 

AM and Alpine look awful to drive out there.

 

Oh no Seb. Hope it was because of the yellow flag but that's not a good look.

 

Perez’ car is dead on the formation lap. That second Red Bull is cursed.

 

Mazepin spins on first lap? What a fucking hilarious weekend from him

 

3 corners, hope the money is worth it for Haas.

 

Virtual safety car now. Gasly’s front wing fell apart and Schumacher spins. That Haas looks horrendous.

 

The Haas looks like me trying to race without traction control on.

 

Mercedes undercut is going to work it seems. Strange that Max hasn’t come in yet

 

RB strategy baffling

 

Williams looks no better

 

I love Yuki so much. An absolute joy to watch.

 

Man. What a finish. Lewis is unreal.
Might get a proper championship battle this year, Max was right there until the end.

 

Great race, really exciting possibilities this year from RB, and McLaren looked strong! Really impressed with Yuki
