Max Verstappen had a mountain to climb from 9th o the grid but thanks to his dominant Red Bull RB19 he still managed to make it look easy to take the Miami Grand Prix victory. Team mate Sergio Perez led the entire race until 5 laps from the end as Fernando Alonso completed the podium.
How on earth did Max do that? Dominante Perez from tenth on the grid? Quicker on his old hard tyres than Perez on new hards. Disgraceful.
Speaking of disgrace. What the hell did ferrari pit Sainz so early for?
What about mister Stroll on 14th position with that car, that is really disgraceful.
Very. Stroll is letting down AMR big time. Mercedes just behind in the constructors with only one podium to their record this year compared to Alonso's four.
Safe to say for future races if you start outside top 10 or out of position, do the hard then med/soft tyre. Literally can’t see any benefit to starting soft/med to start with on higher fuel.

Starting on the harder was always the best tire to start on, but it can lose you spots off the start and can hurt you if there is an early safety car. Unfortunately F1 becomes a practice in gambling because of the terrible tires and the random safety cars.
This season is going to be a snooze fest. Someone needs to tell the blokes that make the rules that once they converge this time, don't hit reset. Thanks to Mercedes, who did everything in their power to raise the ride height by 14-15mm the Ferrari hasn't been the same since.
Personally speaking, AM is a nice story but I don't see them competing for the titles until 26.
"Sebastian there's very, you're a member of a very select few.. Stewart, Lauda, Piquet, Senna, Prost, Schumacher, Fangio.. VETTEL!"
No one is getting near RB in this regulation, I’m afraid. Merc rebuilding, Ferrari a mess, and AMR just aren’t ready. Got the good concept, but unable to develop it to challenge RB. Perez might leave at season close, as he knows he can’t win. Ricciardo waiting in the wings.
Everything about the season just very predictable and boring
