    I realise it's a mugs game to make any sort of predictions on a Friday, but the F1 looks like it really could be rather exciting. Nothing much to choose between Red Bull, Mercedes and McLaren by the looks of things, and Ferrari closer than they (and we) might have expected too. Only 1 second covering the first 16 cars...

    If that continues, we're in for a treat this season.

    I bet Hamilton wins the GP by 30 seconds on Sunday now. <laugh>

    Verstappen absolutely flying in final practice.

    Has been all weekend. Set up really nicely. Interesting that Sainz seems to have the measure of CLC this weekend too. I had the feeling there was a bit of complacency coming into CLC’s mentality, having so easily disposed of Vettel. He’ll need to switch on again, soon.

    Some cracking driver line ups this year.

    And Chaz did switch on!

    This is going to be fun, this season.

    I still think there's only 2 drivers who can win the World Championship though.

    Bottas won't outperform Hamilton and Perez won't outperform Verstappen though.

    Agreed. But that's a hell of a lot more interesting than one.

    Imagine Leclerc in Bottas’ seat though...

    Oscar Piastri your next one to look out for in F1 in a couple of years time.

    Perez's Red Bull debut has come to an end without a lap raced.

    Bloody good race this, the last 3 last Max should be all over Lewis.
