f1 spoilers may turn up here

Kinja'd!!!

hey check it out my beer has racetracks awesome! it is however still heineken...not so awesome

anyhoo...unless the mercs take eachother out i dont think anyone else will be able to beat them...sucks... still anything could happen

and tbh im loving bottas 2.0 no way him and hammy are going to get through the season without hitting eachother if they stay this close in the fight

welp heres to hoping ferrari and rbr can pull some magic out of their arses and make this a 3 way fight again

time to race :) (well in about 25 minutes)

Slightly hungover..lets do this. I think we are going to see a safety car and a Williams in the points. Ok, at least a safety car.

HAM grabs P1 in the first corner of the first lap, ~2s intervals between P1 - P4. Most interesting battle today might be VET vs. LEC.

are we gonna see another Ferrari swap that yields zero long term results?

I get the feeling things are going to settle down like this for a while... on lap 9 and most cars have pretty big gaps between them. Counting on the Ferrari duo for a good battle.

I fear the long term result was determined by waiting too long to do the swap.

Charles is quickly building a gap between him and Vettel but he’s losing ground to P1 and just barely keeping Verstappen in check at about a 5s gap.

As of Lap 16 it’s hard to imagine it turning out any other way.

Heck, it was hard to imagine a different result after the 3rd corner.

Ferrari decided to give them a bit more help by slowing down their pit stops.

I guess VER is on a two-stopper and LEC is gonna run the hards until the end... could be interesting later on.

My favourite part was the leftover gyros I heated up and ate for breakfast.

I am a Hamilton fan, I am a Mercedes fan, but above all, I am a racing fan. For the love of god, a team needs to step up to the challenge and start racing Mercedes.

I was really hoping this era would bring something different with Hamilton at Mercedes and Vettel at Ferrari (something akin to the Hakkinen/Schumacher days) but it’s more like 2002/2004 turned up to 11, except it’s obviously not Ferrari doing the winning anymore.

I’m sure another team would kill for the historic bonus payment that Ferrari gets because they sure as fuck aren’t putting it to good use.
