    Think it's fair to say Mercedes are ahead and Verstappen is done as a top tier driver

    Couple of decent races in F3 and F2, with Prema now praying that the races in Bahrain / Jeddah get cancelled no doubt - Just stupid from Wharton / Sharp to end up in that position, and ruined us of a great race that was forming, even without DRS - Shame as well that F3 didnt have the DRS, as F2 showed how much better it would have been.
    Solid start from Slater who I see having to deal with Ugochukwu and Nael for the majority of the season

    Prema with their financial issues don't need Wharton and Sharp doing that and I have Sharp as a title contender 😅😅

    Gonna be a very boring season if that's how dominant Mercedes will be every qualifying. 

    Let's hope the compression changes nerf their engine and bring them all closer together ASAP, Toto and George are an incredibly unlikeable pair, almost on Horner/Max levels

    Yeah Merc being so far in advance made that a bit of a flat session given all the build up excitement.

    Given Hadjar’s performance. Would have been interesting to see how close Max could have got:

    Wonder what Lewis is thinking about his move away from Mercedes after today’s qualification results?

    Dont think it ever really mattered; Toto wanted Antonelli in there, as he's always been so consious of Red Bull beating him to Verstappen - If Lewis hadn't moved on, I think he would have been replaced
    Best Lewis could have hoped for, was that Williams would have taken Kimi, the way they took Russell, but they clearly dont want to be seen as a Mercedes Second Team anymore (understandable) so was never an option

    I don't think that they would ever have replaced Lewis. The problem was that they never listened to Lewis, when it was clear that they were going down the wrong route with the car post-2021 and he got frustrated.

    Knowing Lewis he's probably just glad the clowns in red have kind of got it together so far for these regs, and I say that as a huge Ferrari fan
