I think the individual Abu Dhabi result was dodgy. 

That said, mercedes made loads of strategy mistakes through the season which cost them dearly. 

Also, Max got shafted a good few times and should have been out of sight long before the last few races. 

All the hysterical Hamilton fanboys are for the watching imo. He's an absolute knob and I'll take great delight in him struggling this year. 

He made a couple of racial half accusations on DTS which I thought was pretty poor. Couple that with him accusing stewards of having theor favourites just show him up as the oddball he clearly is.

Episode 3 of DTS is one of the worst things I've ever seen. Literal Mercedes PR and lies. It is very nice watching it knowing what happens later in the year, but I'd be surprised if Red Bull don't consider their involvement in this, because so far this season all DTS has done is made them out to be the bad guys.

Only FP1, but what's the initial thoughts? Ferrari seems strong, Mercedes struggling but not completely off pace. McLaren looking poor but suggestions they were testing brakes? Learn more in the FP2 Quali runs

Sky's coverage can be a hard listen at times. Lewis Hamilton TV (featuring 'George' and 'Lando').

Toys are still not back in the pram about Abu Dhabi.

So the FIA report from last year's race is in.....https://www.fia.com/2021-f1-abu-dhabi-grand-prix-report-world-motor-sport-council-19-march-2022

Basically confirming what was known.

  1. Masi screwed up under massive pressure brought on by the team's constantly on the radio to him during those few pressure moments.
  2. Rules are now clarified and made easier to follow to prevent even a remote possibility of the Abu Dhabi finale repeating
  3. New team & procedures placed to ensure the person making the decision gets time to make that decision.

Not sure this will please the  #VoidLap58 #F1xed crew. 

Mercedes seems to really struggle badly on straights but isn't badly behind others. Guess Qualifying will show us.

Hamilton "we're not bluffing like befo- ermm like people thought we were, we're quite far off the pace"

Wee slip there from Hamilton but hopefully he's right and they're mid table pish.
