I swear the 3 months without F1 seems twice as long as the 6 months without football.

Hard to say but Mercedes still doesn't look that great. Aston really does have a lot of potential. Red Bull still has the highest top speeds but Ferrari has inched much closer. |

Just saw the Mercedes test runs - doesn’t look like they were really pushing. Porpoising is pretty much eliminated (slight bouncing but every car has that). Perhaps they were looking at reliability testing with tweaks coming the next testing session? |

We'll see. Agree it's hard to say for sure right now but there's still signs of weakness that we saw last testing.

Canadian Lance will miss all the testing sessions and may even be a non-starter at Bahrain such are the injuries thought to be both wrists, rumoured to be broken which suggests he went over the bars and not a leg injury as I thought earlier.
AM are not sure when he will be back and have asked him to stay away for the short term. Link https://www.gpblog.com/en/news/18248...th-injury.html |

Check out turn 4 Look LEW is using that run off at turn 4 "AGAIN". They should just call it the Hamilton (LEW) corner since he's the only one allowed to use it !

So my first question:
Does anyone dare to make a prediction for the race? My prediction (yes very boring): 1. VER 2. LEC 3. SAI 4. PER 5. HAM 6. RUS 7. NOR 8. ALO 9. PIA 10. HULK

Shows that 14 is struggling a bit doing that, it's their choice to continue not having sidepods.

Here's a vid of all the cars today, Max's car appeared to be free of the aero rake add ons to measure aero like on the Ferrari sometimes and the Mercs, which is a good sign.

Too early to guess but from what I've seen it's Max first with Charlie second and a toss between Sergio and Carlos for third then RUS and HAM.

Yes . You are reading this well . I said (600)! sensors ! Horner said : It was just like the first day at school , but today we learned already a lot about the new RB19 and by MAX's outstanding drivers performance . 157 laps is like 3 races , but MAX did it with a smile on his face .
