    back onto the sport, Vettel did a good thing, told his mechanics to cool the Torro Rossos brakes on the weigh bridge, hes still a moron but he has gone up in my estimations

    Actually, on reading it back later, that was quite confrontational and a wee bit unnecessary.

    My apologies.

    Vettel being a cockhole as usual. Oh I do hope bottas continues this form all year. I love it when Hamilton gets a slap or 2 and gets stroppy sad.

    Max being a dick as usual

    Seriously he's supposed to be the next best thing but he's so utterly annoying. I was routing for him at one point but now he's such a try hard.

    3 races in, 3 times Ferrari have gone out of their way to screw Leclerc over.

    Also, 3 Merc 1-2's in a row - those guys know how to pick up other peoples pieces when they get dropped!

    Meanwhile further back Renault with issues again, so looks like the gap between top 3 and the rest has increased this season (despite one of the top three having a Honda power unit and a Gasly).

    Verstappen ahead of both Ferrari drivers in the championship is almost as shocking as both Renault drivers being so far down. And Merc already have nearly double the constructors points of Ferrari...

    I can't see LeClerc tolerating the 'know you place'/'do your job' schtick from Ferrari for long tbh.

    I hate it when they say its a team sport so there are team orders, really teams are primarily interested in the manufacturers title so it doesn't actually matter which way round your drivers finish.

    I know it's a still shot, but it really lacks a sense of dynamism.

    It just looks like they didn't understand Parc Ferme rules.

    And that, in a nutshell, explains my lack of enthusiasm for Formula E

    Mr Russell to miss FP2 after FP1 was cancelled after his encounter with a drain cover,m then the recovery trucks encounter with a bridge.

    Appears a new chassis is being flown over after floor/survival cell damage

    Damage to the floor an likely the survival cell means the car is unsafe.

    He will still beat Kubica, won't be close to anyone else, so no change there. The real question is how much compensation will Williams get from Baku for this Benny Hill show in FP1.

    To make matters worse, the tow truck taking Russel's car back to the pits had it's crane boom too high and hit one of the pedestrian bridges, then proceeded to leak hydraulic fluid all over the car.

    It being on the back of the flatbed is probably the fastest it's gone all weekend...
