    Not judging until we can see what Vettel can do with a car that isn't broken. Vettel was quicker than Ricciardo in practice.

    Perez was a waste of time, don't need him for tyre saving.

    Yes sacking Perez was the right thing to do, I mean it's already been justified with this podium.

    Also, maybe Ron murdering Whitmarsh and hiring Boullier was a smart move too.

    Pretty good race. Mercedes pace is ominous though. Swapping one dominant car for another. Hard to judge how good Nico was with Lewis made irrelevent immediately.

    A number of great drives though.
    Ricciardo doing better than anyone predicted.
    Impressive debut from Magnussen.
    Button did well to get back up to 4th from 11th on lap 1.
    Bottas with half the overtakes from the race as a whole.
    Hulkenberg again holding off faster cars.

    Solid start to the season.

    Kevin had the perfect form and mind to do well in the top tier of F1 while in FR3.5

    Whilst i'm unsure if Ricciardo is the real deal, Magnussen is definitely the real deal. Scary how composed he is

    On a side note so much for the big reliability issues. Vettel and Hamilton never got going, but after that we only lost backmarkers (Sadly that's what the Lotus is now)

    In 2-3 years he could be the one to dominate after Vettel.

    There should be some crowd sourcing effort to find him.
