Alsonso Q3?

He seems to know how to hustle a properly powerful car. Guess the experience from the early days helps.

Well poo poo.

I don't want to get excited too soon, but yeah go Bottas.

Raikkonen on it, Bottas faster than Ham so far (though doesn't mean much yet), but 2 tenths been 1 and 4th not bad at all.

Stroll might possibly be the worst driver of the modern era.

Hey now, give him a season to see if he's more dangerous than Maldonado or slower than Chilton or both. It's only fair.

That Ferrari looks SIIIIIIICK through the direction changes.



HAHAHA yet he's still slower than Kimi!

Not really.

Over the last couple of years they've picked one team boss to speak to for each race weekend.

How quickly they forget how Grosjean was the first one to murder Alonso and arguably ruined, or at the very least significantly impacted Alonso's 2012 challenge:

A regular in the AU GBS thread. Be nice.

Bahrain will go but I'd imagine Abu Dhabi will stay. It's got the whole night race thing going for it (especially relevant with Singapore having said they're not renewing their contract when it's up) and it does more hospitality than most Grand Prix.

gently caress Bahrain though.


I must be the only person in here who actually likes Bahrain as a circuit (horrible crimes against the populace are another thing all together).

He should, he's up the grid and at least one of the cars likely to give him trouble is starting from the pit lane at best. With a large dollop of luck, a podium isn't out of reach.

C'mon Australia's always been a little bit like that (except when DRS makes the whole thing a farce). I'll worry after Bahrain if its still super tight like that.
