Valtteri Bottas enjoyed an impeccable race at Melbourne, starting his season with 26 points after also recording the fastest lap of the race. Lewis Hamilton and Max Verstappen finished in distant 2nd and 3rd places.
Maaaaayyyyybe in the order itself, but do you think Alfa Romeo is a tenth slower than Ferrari? Do you think Renault is a tenth faster than Ferrari, within a tenth of redbull?

Yes I agree, it's a bit like it was in testing when they were just talking about random stuff instead of trying to analyse actual testing items. I have found it very frustrating when they keep on doing split screen so you can't actually see the track action very well and they always seem to do it when someone is on e.g. a qualifying simulation, or they choose to take an ad break when gasly and both Ferraris do their quali laps - I mean cmon this is the best part of fp2.
I am tired of this. Fortunately some of us have never believed Mercedes was in trouble. I had my doubts because of the different packages but I was expecting them to be strong here. Anyway, I hope Ferrari has the pace to beat them tomorrow.tranquility2k4 wrote: ↑15 Mar 2019, 08:11Toto wolf has played a blinder getting all media to believe Merc was slow lol then they do this to make it look like a heroic comeback. Everytime they have a bad race they do this then bounce back immediately which isn't possible unless you always have something in hand or something extra waiting to be bolted on. Maybe Merc are still playing with competition trying to make it look close so viewers don't get bored.
Gasly said lost power and team said you can keep going. It must be something like what alo had live spa (full throttle turn and software lost the knowledge of what to do problem)
