Too early in the season to be pulling that crap.

I feel sorry for Russell here, he was the class of the F2 field last year but he's not going to be able to prove anything while trundling around at the back. Meanwhile Norris and Albon, who were less impressive in F2, have been presented with far greater opportunities. I don't see what Russell coul...

Haas had another Haas race. They look like the best of the rest again but technical issues once again cause a retirement.

Maranello1

Congrats to the Finn. I hope he wins the WDC this year. It's almost a given that Merc will win again this year. Last year he was clearly put into a support role after proving to be as fast as Hammy the previous year. Poor McLaren. I'm happy for Honda. They proved it wasn't them. At the very least, ...

Definitely a weekend Ferrari would like to forget.

A Honda powered engine has passed VET. Honda has finally arrived...and McLaren is still bad.

Maranello1

McLaren will struggle to get in the top five teams but at least they don't have to guilt of running any more of Alonso's career.

Maranello1

Honda should surpass Renault. They're Honda. They're the largest manufacturer of racing engines in the world. What's staggering is how many missteps McLaren has taken. They have become a complete joke of a team. Just like that, they're back to the worst power plant on the grid with a bad chassis.

And he's doing great job protecting Lewis.

For him professionally, this is as good as a win.

He'll get away with it because of who he is, but that's probably not okay.

That would be true if the weather was like this every race

A Haas win, for a longtime American F1 fan, would be a surreal experience.

P4 and P5 today. It seems like every week they have someone in the top 10. The problem is they have so many retirements and GRO doing GRO things. Are they better than Renault and the best of the rest? Yes I think they are very clearly 4th quickest on average. They just don't have the nous or the dr...

Maranello1

He wins if he has the best car or if Vettel does some Vettel thing. He's not a better driver. They're on equal footing and it will come down to the cars.

I don't feel for Bottas at all, honestly. He got the golden ticket. While he's had some bad luck, he simply isn't as good as the other 5 drivers from the top factory teams.

I don't know if that's better. After all, passing Verstappen is navigating land mines.

The Alfa Romeos are both in front of the McLarens. What a dumpster fire. If I say Alfa Romeo, it sounds better than Saubers Well it’s only one Alfa Romeo but still. How draggy is that McLaren car? Jeez... Right. Misspoke (wrote?). Either way, it's McLaren and Sauber. What have they done to that pac...

Seb whines constantly, but I have to agree with him on this. That was nonsense. If the others want to drive 80 km/h they should go out on the highway and let the big boys race.

The ESPN broadcast of the Sky Sports feed is just amazing.

If Grosjean didn't have the awful fortune, Haas would run away with it.

McLaren is trash getting bailed out by an all-time great driving talent.

Maranello1

Hartley had a heck of a Q1

Maranello1

You want to believe the largest racing engine manufacturer in the world has something up their sleeves but if they did, they would have shown their cards by now.

Honda won a race

When they aren't wrecking like crazy, this stuff is really exciting

There he goes

Honda is clearly the faster engine. Until it stops, anyway.

YES. Please. I will go to Indy to see that.

Maranello1

I wish someone would have given Rossi a fair shake in F1

Maranello1

Honestly, this is what tons of passing looks like. We all want more overtaking in F1, but this is just driving in a circle and passing people. This is the polar opposite. And I don't know about you guys, but I think I would rather watch Monaco.

LOL. Although, seriously, they won't all fail. And Honda actually has power in Indy

The thing is, all the Chevys are slow as crap, apparently.

I want to say a lot of things that get me banned. This sucks.

Depends on your definition of patriotism.

Another Honda goes out. Indy is so boring

Hats off to the 101st!

The problem with the American nationalism is it is all paid for by the military. It's not really appreciative.
