··Ash @ ΩFI'm anticipating Norris being aggressive because he has something to prove, and the demonstrated pace.
Love to know what the Red Bull and McLaren teams' instructions to their drivers are going to be 😗

·It will be a hectic start, the grid is all out of order and its not a circuit for overtaking. I predict carnage!

··Spam RiskMiami? I’ll try to reserve judgement, but street circuits generally suck in comparison to purpose built racetracks.

Meanwhile in Italy the rain at Imola has been quite heavy over parts of the circuit and the rainfall radar predicts that light rain will linger for the first hour of the race.

··Ash @ ΩFThis seems to more like Albert Park and is purpose-built.

·Russell a little bit petulant. Dry conditions and there was enough room. Wet line and a slight turn in that straight and the rears let go. I think there was undertones of “you’re in my seat Valterie and I’m coming through”

·Toto probably shouldn't have said much after the incident as he is implying that Russell is not allowed to pass a Mercedes.
“The whole situation should have never happened,” Wolff said. “Valtteri had a bad first 30 laps, and shouldn’t have been there. But George should have never launched into this manoeuvre, considering that the track was drying up.
“It meant taking risks, and the other car is a Mercedes in front of him. In any driver’s development, for a young driver, you must never lose this global perspective.
“So yeah, lots to learn for him I guess.”

·Cracking race. Riccardo needs to acclimatise quickly to his new team. Thoroughly trounced. So was Vettel so not a big indicator yet.

Toto is not saying Russel can’t pass a Merc, he is saying don’t crash into a Merc, it is not going to advance your career as a junior Mercedes driver hoping to get a seat with Mercedes.

·I think Bottas’ days are rather numbered, compared to Hamilton’s previous teammates he just hasn’t been there. Rosberg and Button could at least keep him honest, they weren’t floundering like that. Not sure if Russell is the play though, I reckon Toto must be looking at Lando and wondering what the price tag on that kid is because I think he’s the best young driver on the grid right now.
Lando is my choice too, but I think the investment in George will keep him next in line unless he further blots his copy book.
