Sweet, McFail beaten by TR Honda 👍
Best chassis on the grid, I wonder what the excuse is now.
Alonso will say the Renault is a GP2 engine :D
No he will say it is a GP3 engine because it is slower than a GP2 one :-)

Terrible for boywonder tho, wonder if it was another car problem. I bet it was...
(Btw I think he is a mighty good driver, just think the pr machine from rb likes to exaggerate a lot)
Great to see Honda doing so well, and not to say I am happy to see McLaren out back, but the way they layed the "GP2 engine" comment on Honda last year, I hope the McLaren fans are able to realize that poor performance was because of the engine and the chassis

Sooo... Going by Australia, Merc are the champions, and going by Bahrain, Ferrari are.

Raikkonen claiming traffic affected his final run. Any evidence to support this?
He to back off behind Ric for his outlap then Sainz and Hulk got in the way during his flying lap, no blatant blocking just affecting downforce into those high speed sections. Ferrari should've had him out right behind Seb but there you go.

There's always more excuses.

Anyway, this Toro Rosso, McLaren battle is getting very interesting. The race tomorrow is going to be interesting with both Verstappen and Hamilton out of position and on opposite strategy to the leaders. Kimi and Vettel don't have the greatest record when starting together.

Hahaha@ McLaren!! What a joke of a team! No more hiding behind Honda! They are the biggest joke in F1! Amazing result from STR-Honda! This is the team of the year!

That sure is a surprise after Melbourne.

Is the Ferrari now the car that is good on your average Tilkedrome and not so good on street circuits?

It's definitely close enough that it doesn't matter. It didn't matter last year as well, sure as hell won't matter this year. Performance, not reliability, just to be clear. :)

And they call it a stall. A STALL!
