    Anyone know why RB didn't go for Sainz as the second driver?

    Because they're stupid?

    I think there is a lot of animosity between the Verstappen / Sainz camps

    Yeah Jos and Carlos Snr weren't allowed at Toro Rosso in the same weekend. It's stupid

    Any idea where their issue stems from?

    Just competitive dad type nonsense and a personality clash

    That was a great Sprint Quali session, might have to get up for 3am now to watch, especially as Quali is at 7am, and don't want to come across any spoilers.

    Great session for Bearman as well, after last weekend.

    Rookies apart from Lawson are settling in really well

    Hugely impressive for Lewis to be this competitive on a Saturday versus Charles this early on.

    You can't forget he is 40 years old now. Makes you realise how bloody good he was in his peak because he is still pretty good now!

    I watched.  Think Lando would have taken it but for messing up towards the end of his last qualifying lap, but still good to see Lewis at the front - will be like old times for him with Max alongside him to the first corner!

    Nice surprise to wake up to. Did Hamilton finally find the K1 button?

    Commentators were saying how well the newly surfaced track was working and Lewis breaks the lap record just to prove the point…delighted for him and hope this is just the start of a great season for 44!

    So is there betting on a first corner crash?

    Did Martin Brundle just say “Hamilton is leading for Mercedes?”

    Only the sprint but Lewis rolling back the years there. Doing just enough to keep everyone behind him while being kinder to his tyres than anyone else and reaping the rewards late on to finish with a comfortable lead. Leclerc also looked racey at the end suggesting the Ferrari was gentler on its tyres in the heat. Bodes well for the full race if they can get good track position in qualifying.

    Nice Sprint race there, hopefully Qualifying will be just as fun later on.

    Hamilton just has to worry about the big Ferrari nemesis tomorrow... Strategy!!

    G'wan Lewis.

    Have never got the hate for him.  Its got to be good for F1 seeing him back in a car that can compete.

    Red Bull just havent learnt their lesson have they!!

    Why not put the experienced F1 driver (Tsunoda) in the main team, whilst Lawson gains experience without the pressure at VCARB, I mean it didnt work for Gasly and Albon, so why would it work a third time

    Lawson P20 and out.

    Impressive from Hadjar so far after last weeks disappointment.

    Lawson sounds like a defeated man already

    Lawson and Doohan are both showing really, why they didnt get into Formula One immediately, and have had to wait for a bit of luck to go their way.

    Drugovich really should take note, he's wasting his career

    I suppose they can’t all drive well, but Lawson is stinking it at Red Bull. 

    Disappointed with what Sainz is turning out at Williams so far too.
