Game on!

Verstappen pole by nearly 4 tenths of a second :o
Yes! His middle sector was absolutely outstanding, with 3 tenths there over Lewis alone.

Also, he was purple in EVERY sector, meaning the Red Bull is looking rather dominant engine wise (Honda), not just due to Newey's Aero.

Brilliant!

I was a bit worried after Q2, I thought it was going to be more of the same but that lap has made it genuinely interesting going forward.

Here we go. I hope this season delivers on it's promise. Much as I like Lewis, I don't want a Mercedes procession. Its become boring.

I just tuned in and saw a Red Bull on the side of the road! :o

Thankfully it wasn't Max!

Been really looking forward to this, hopefully its not decided by a crash or mechanical failure

Max just saying he feels something weird on the throttle :cry:

I've laid him just in case especially with the sister Red Bull having issues

Yes, thrilling last few laps.

I thought Max made a perfectly good overtake and was astonished to see him relinquish the place back to Lewis. He was only wide as Lewis put him there!

Anyway, a dramatic climax and hopefully a good indicator of the season to come.

Lando Norris did well too I thought.

Track limits was an issue at times last season, looks like they haven't fixed it. Stick a gravel trap there that will sort it out! :)

Think that's where Hamilton has the edge on Verstappen, better driver in those situations.

Bodes well for the rest of the season though.

Bring on the real circuits. Walls, grass, gravel, elevation changes, cold and rain. I'd have loved to have seen Fernando in boring Bottas's seat. Then you'd have seen how fast those Mercs can go with a good driver on board :).

I'm particularly looking forward to Silverstone, Spa & Monza, proper proper race tracks; and of course Monaco and also Azerbaijan! That crazy little section where I think the castle is, barely room for one car to get through!

The days of having two proper racers in a top team by design are gone unfortunately, now its one racer and a good back up who's more of a time trialist than anything else. Some fun battles further down the grid though so there's something to see everywhere you look.

Spa is my favourite. I live down the road from Cadwell Park which is a mini Spa. It's even got it's own Eau Rouge/Raidillon where you can get airbourne. :D

Monaco shaping up to be very interesting...

Mercedes seems way off the pace in Practice 3.. Hamilton down in 7th and it doesnt look like sand bagging.

Ferrari's look very good. Could be interesting for the championship

Let’s hope they don’t have to change Leclerc‘s gear box.

I'm weighted towards Max for the championship so I'm hoping they do :)
