  • The battle that's going to be interesting is the Red Bull Academy scrap because I can see there being an Alphatauri seat up for grabs next season for them. Iwasa looks to be in the box seat despite a very bad weekend for him. 
  • I'd be curious to see what Bearman's route to F1 would be IF he made it

    There is no way he's stepping straight in to replace Carlos Sainz etc. if he were to win the title this year

    Haas is the obvious choice, but will they want another rookie after Schumacher

    Long way to go in his career yet though
    He still has a lot to prove before any talk of F1. One swallow doesn't make a Summer.
    He needs to show this sort of performance week in, week out.

    Of course, thats why I said there is a long way to go.

    Cant rule out Liam Lawson still... He's in third place in Super Formula

    Its the route Gasly took to Formula One
  • Nice to hear our National Anthem. Be good to hear it a few more times during the season.

    I think Lawson with a strong SF season is a shoe in. De Vries isn't really impressing. It's just if they keep faith with Yuki. 
  • Bearman is the real deal. Remember chatting to him after the British Kartmasters event when my son Jacob came 7th in the Cadet event and Ollie won X30 junior. He was only 3 years older than Jacob but it felt like I was talking to a 25 yr old F1 driver. He is so self assured.

    His brother Thomas was Jacob’s team mate in karts and was regularly 8 tenths off Jacob. My son is now retired and Thomas is in F4 next season.

    Its a sport like no other.
  • Well that was a fun "race"
  • What the hell happened at the end with Ocon? The race organisers have narrowly avoided a disaster there

    Race was a snoozefest
  • Interesting seeing Perez so close in the standings to Verstappen. Seeing how much stronger a driver Russell is than Perez makes you realise that Hamilton isn’t as washed up as some may think

  • Bit of a snoozefest that. A long weekend as well with Friday and Saturday

    eh?!?
  • If any of you have Sky F1 Indycar is worth a watch: 
  • IndyCar this year is so much worth the watch compared with F1
  • Indycar is a fantastic watch. Expecting more drivers that can't get to F1 to eye it up as a viable route.

    Grosjean though is showing he just cant buy a win in this series either - Really thought he'd do it today, especially when he passed McLaughlin with the latter on cold tyres.

    Him getting a win, is like Hulk getting a podium in the F1

    McLaughlin is a revelation. To come from a completely different form of racing to star like he has is mega impressive

    Grosjean could be a sneaky bet to win next time out on the Indy Road Course. 
  • Grosjean is going to be the eternal bridesmaid by the look of things

    After what he went through in his crash at the Bahrain Grand Prix, anything that he achieves now is a miracle.
    He will get an indycar win.

  • What a lovely red flag.
  • What an absolutely mixed up grid you've got there! And a track where I don't think Max can just blast through on DRS.

    Hopefully, he'll have to go off line to try to overtake and will stick it in the wall.
  • If it rains tomorrow it could be a great race. 

    Leclerc crashes far too often. For a top tier driver he really needs to eradicate these if he wants to win a WDC one day 
  • Leclerc is just trying too hard his pole to win rate is ridiculous.
  • Talk recently about Leclerc becoming frustrated at what's happening at Ferrari with management etc. They are well within their rights to point to him and say hey, maybe you should keep it out of the bloody wall? 
  • Just feels like with Leclerc when he needs to deliver he over drives and makes silly mistakes. Makes me wonder if he's destined to be another nearly man.

    Verstappen having to get past Russell will no doubt one of the talking points pre-race.
  • Oh god Miami!!
  • If you think this build up is cringe, then wait until Las Vegas….
