Jeez all these crashes I might not be able to stay awake for this lol
 
Ok this is just stupid. The white lines are clearly like black ice. When Sainz is crashing out for no reason, it’s just bad racing
 
Getting the feeling McLaren's are gonna run away with normal condition races for the time being, pretty disappointed Oscar rolled over and listened to team orders in his home race and week 1. Obviously things happened afterwards but he was at least going to make it interesting before orders came down. Can't help but feel like I'll be watching that specific interaction and a Lando win over and over.

The story was Lando finally figuring out starts and restarts. Also, for whatever reason the Redbull used up the inters faster than the McLarens did. Crazy conditions, anyone who finished in one piece had a hell of a drive.

That gap they built when the conditions were consistent was eye opening.
 
Gotta remind myself RB started really strong last year but I am concerned teams may more or less punt on this season when push comes to shove with new regs next year.

It’s so close between everyone that the midfield is going to be able to get a lot of points, especially with so many rookies.

Yuki got screwed in this race. RB made a bad decision and kept him out to long. Same as a the Ferrari drivers.
I would’ve liked to see the Ferraris try to gut it out and stay out instead of switching back to the inters for a very short rain shower. They were 1 and 2 then fumbled the decision and did it too late

Problem is for the last five years the two teams that constantly make bad race decisions are Ferrari and Whatever Toro Rosso is going by that year

Haven’t been able to watch the race yet but it sounds like Lewis got the full Ferrari experience in race one.
