The drama's entertaining but I can't say I have much interest in watching a racing competition keyed to who solves their aero issues best...

The photo that offers clues about Mercedes’ F1 troubles (https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/the-photo-that-offers-clues-about-mercedes-f1-troubles/8953338/)

Everybody is (seemingly) working on their floors and diffusers. The interesting aspect to this is that it's difficult (at this point) to say wo is conducting regular development exercises as opposed to who is really in 'trouble'. That's what makes the current F1 environment fun.

CART/IndyCar used to be similar - and I'm sad it's missing from the series.

Should be an interesting first race this weekend!

Mercedes is being challenged due to the mirror mounting being effectively a wing.

https://twitter.com/Dimitris_Bizas/status/1503510799528206343?s=20&t=MxVAxfdC_oNspLA_HzLuBAHad to run it through Google Translate...but if I read it correctly, upgrades are on the way. Interesting. Lends credence to the 'Mercedes is sandbagging' theory...but regardless, it's all on the line come this Sunday. Should be fun!!!

Or you could hit the ‘translate text’ command in the tweet for this…


About Red Bull: The team's engineers have prepared a rear suspension that changes behavior after 250 km / h to help eliminate porpoising. Verstappen will bring it to #BahrainGP , while Perez will probably have it from Saudi Arabia. #F1

Crazy. Riccardo during testing, now Vettel misses the first race.

[SteveH]

Not to suggest this is when Vettel got infected, but…..

This was taken at the last pre-season test. HAM had not arrived yet. Forget the reason for the delay. I believe this was taken before MAG was named as the Haas driver.
