Bahrain Grand Prix Awards

Best Driver: LeClerc, showing that besting Vettel in Australia wasn't a one off.
Worst Driver: Vettel, apart from his start he really looked average, especially with that spin.
Luckiest Driver: Hamilton
Unluckiest Driver: LeClerc, very classy after having his win taken away in the last few laps.
Best Rookie/New Driver: Norris, I like the way he's started off this season.

Best Team: Mercedes
Surprise Team: McLaren
Worst Team: Williams
Best Overtake: Hamilton on Vettel

Biggest Surprise: McLaren looking racy
Most expected result: Verstappen being involved in contact with another driver
Funniest moment: Not really funny as such but both Renaults retiring at the same time on the same corner was strangely amusing.
Excuse of the weekend: That Haas apparently don't tell their drivers to watch out for traffic.

Special Mention: Sainz, good qualifying that was undone by the clash with Verstappen and gearbox issues.

Race Rating: 8/10

 

The ferrari was not half a second quicker the Merc lol, Hamilton fans are so deluded. Probably about a teeth or two max.

Best Driver: LeClerc, announced himself as THE Ferrari driver
Worst Driver: Vettel, looking to have bottled it already

So are all the F1 writers are deluded Hamilton fans? hmmmmm

 

Never, I can't think of one who is like that...............

 

I won't have that, Benson is the cornerstone of the BBC's impartiality. He's right up there with the SkyF1 team. Utterly impartial.... or do I mean incompetent? I always mix those two up.

 

He actually knows nothing about F1 but yet BBC still employ him lol
