    Ferrari are so bad. Mercedes or McLaren be the only team that can stop Red Bull winning every race this season.

    Very impressive from Norris. There were 5 laps there where he really had to nail maggots and beckets every lap.

    Two British drivers on the podium, 3 in the top 5, 4 in the top 8 (if you include Alex).

    and the sun did rise in the east.

    rotten sack got a fastest lap too.

    mclaren just happy to be there. Great set of upgrades.

    Aston falling off just showing how the budgets and stuff just slows the smaller teams down

    Ferrari now the 5th placed car?

    and why would we not?

    the only factor to.my mind is the fact that Alex flies the Thai flag which is his choice. he's born and grew up here and learned his trade here.
