I’m in the same boat, but at least there is some good racing. Let’s hope it stays that way.

5 laps to go...

It "NEVER" looked better so early in a season for MAX !

MAX can win all the races in this 2023 season ....

Our number 1 is "UNTOUCHABLE" !!!

And ALO is the man of the race !!!!!!!!!

Fliplegend · 03-05-2023, 11:32 AM

He said it's a lovely car to drive and it's not often he said that about the others.

Max goes faster in last two laps leaving Checo behind more.

M5Rick · 03-05-2023, 11:39 AM

Max wins followed by Checo!

Awesome performance by Max and RB.
AMR for sure is a welcome addition to the usual top teams.
ALO ran a fantastic race.

Congratulations to RB for building such a great car, again. So happy to see Alonso on the podium again and I hope he gets a race win this season. Merc good job improving but you have a ways to go. Ferrari WTF seriously, you can do better.

Let’s hope we have a great season!

Hell yeah my friend ! Cheers !!!

FOR MAX !!!!

GuidoK · 03-05-2023, 12:09 PM

With Nico Rosberg doing the podium interviews, you'd almost hope Hammy gettting a podium position.
That would have been comically uncomfortable

OG Shark · 03-05-2023, 12:14 PM

As a VER fan obviously have to be pretty stoked about the outlook of the season - that was just easy. As an F1 fan thought that looked a bit ominous for a good championship race. Just fun conjecture after one race though and any speculation is meaningless but going to do it anyways

Good to see Fer is already back in prime Fer form. Would like to have seen how PER & LEC matched up at the end of the race when the tires likely swung back into LEC’s favor. Merc have some work to do for sure definitely not the start they were hoping for. Interesting to see how/if they can respond with their cars. ALO that was awesome! Having a fast and motivated ALO mixing it up at the top all season ought to be a blast to watch.

Man, if Aston Martin can make a couple improvements to straight line speed, they will be in the mix in hot races. The tire deg is phenomenal on that car.

gatorfast · 03-05-2023, 12:16 PM

Great first race for Logan Sargeant and Williams. Looks like they have a legit car this year.
