I have it on good authority that it’s race week, where is all the buzz?

    No, I agree that Verstappen is probably going to win, the RBR19 is incredible in his hands.

    Ferrari got it right in Canada, just seem to have dropped behind Mercedes, or they should have been behind if Mercedes showed up on R01 day with their current concept.

    I see Mercedes steadily improving, trading places with Aston. If they are lucky they’ll win a race, but at least they have a platform that behaves as expected on which they now can build (2024 is going to be the year aka next yearTM)

    George will bounce back, or maybe Lewis started showing up again now that the car seems to have some potential and George just got a reality check. Time will tell, but I think he’ll bounce back.

    Gasly,… give him time to acclimatize to the beast that is called Alpine. Or Watch Alpine ruin another potentially good driver.

      My understanding is that the car is more predictable under breaking now. So Lewis must finally be comfortable to push the limits

        Also wonder if Lewis stopped running test setups for car dev. like he did before allowing him to perform better, esp. on race days.
