No shockers in Q1.

Alpine gotta be pretty devastated taking the bottom 2 spots.

Hamilton required a last minute lap to get out of elimination zone. Not great for him.

Kinda picking up where he left off.

Ferrari giving a show so far, and Lando having a good night so far.

Lol. So it's Max, and then everyone else.

8 cars within about half a second of Max.

Last year in Bahrain only 3 cars were within a half second of Max and only 5 cars within 1 second.

This year 8 cars within a half second (including Oscar who was 4 one thousandths off) and 9 cars with in 0.531.

DRS starting after 1 lap should help keep the gap close until at least the first pit stops, hopefully.

The other cars are much further along in their development cycle than the RB. They are much closer to achieving minimum possible laptime given the concepts they're built around. The new RB is basically going back to the beginning of 2022 with a brand new, albeit massively well-informed, car concept.

If anyone else is going to get a win, do it now before RB brings the upgrades. Once that happens the only things stopping a clean sweep by Max is a reliability issue or possibly a collision with a back marker.

My four year old knew who pretty much everyone was. What have I created?

They never said if it was mechanical or he baked the corner. Lest I didn't hear it.

I didn't either. Granted a 3 year old running around doesn't allow for full attention

On X Williams said it was steering wheel issue. Was replaced during pit stop

Alpine is such a disaster. Hard to believe they were P4 a few seasons back. A pair of race-winning drivers and you give them the worst car on the grid, ouch.

F1 can't like this. Maybe next year the sport will be competitive.

I mean, he was awful in qualifying and lost the race by 20+ seconds...

watching their episode on DtS it's pretty clear why they are struggling, entitlement and too much pride

Looks like 2023 just kept on going. Potential to be a long predictable season.

Not great if Max can get one second leads within the first lap. Might have to start the race with DRS activated.

He might have taken too seriously the comments about him and Daniel getting looks for the Red Bull 2 spot in case Perez falters.
Charlie Conway

Seems like 1st lap DRS was implemented just to keep Max from running away and it didn't even work

F1 TV interviewed Daniel after the race, and, per him, they talked about this exact situation during their pre-race discussions. Yuki knew he would get team orders if this happened. Yuki just cemented that he is never getting that Red Bull seat.

Neither RB driver belongs in F1. Neither of them is a top 20 driver. I'll get hate for this because people love Danny Ric, but he's been washed up for several seasons now.
