i do wonder with the spending cap (alleged) if one of the american car makers might not take a stab at it. If I had to guess I'd say Ford. Although Chevy is pretty big in Europe with teh Lemans Series and their GTLM Corvettes. $175 million isn't chump change but it's not going to kill them either.
Is the practice during teh day and the race is at night? I think they do FP2 at night though so I can't wait to see what those times look like.First Practice session of 2021!

It’s comical how bad Alonso is at making team decisions.
I’m clearly intrigued. The regs clearly bit Racing Point and Merc. Mclaren is downplaying their pace...but it sure looks legit. Verstappen and Norris on the front row...could that actually happen!???
A bit of technical news on the McLaren engine switch:I'm not going to place McLaren ahead of Merc just yet. I'm surprised though that Norris seems to have so much pace on Riccardo.
Yuki has an advantage. He is all of 5ft 2.Yuki looks fast. Honda maybe pulled out too soon. Man I hope this season delivers. We’ll find out tomorrow.
3rd year in the car. But it’s fast. Riccardo will find the pace soonI'm not going to place McLaren ahead of Merc just yet. I'm surprised though that Norris seems to have so much pace on Riccardo.
This is the key point out of Bahrain regardless of the result.We’ll know more after qualifying if Merc is holding out. I suspect they aren’t but you never know. The fun part is 16 cars within one second of each other. There is going to be some serious racing this year.
Free Practice 3 results. Interesting that Sainz has outpaced Leclerc the last two sessions.
Alonso must feel like he’s had to drag shitty cars spots and spots ahead of where they should be for years now.Wow, Max blows their doors off!
Clearly regarding Red Bull #2, it’s not a driver problem...rather a team culture problem. Guess Danny Ric saw it coming...makes more and more sense with each passing year why he left. And how about Alonso? Hasn’t missed a beat.
Max could usually keep up in race pace last year. Just couldn’t get past Lewis in the races and always started behind. Be interesting tomorrow. Max has a history of poor starts. I figure those 2 will drop Bottas and he’ll drive a lonely race in 3rd all day.Alonso must feel like he’s had to drag shitty cars spots and spots ahead of where they should be for years now.
Red Bull is the Max Verstappen car. Period. And he like the car on the edge at all times. Race should be interesting. Merc looked faster on the mediums and both will start the race on them.

Yeah but Mercedes brought Lewis in wayyyy too early on the second stint. Regardless more of this please. All season.Red Bull lost the race because of the clumsy call on the first pit stop. It was dumb to keep Max out for a long first run. He would’ve been on the medium and even if he came out right behind Lewis he would’ve passed easily.
That’s why I say their pit call lost the race. Don’t unnecessarily put yourself behind anymore than necessary.RB with the faster car lost the race.
I worry about reliability for Red Bull. Same shit different year with Perez pre race. They gotta clean that up. Man this is going to be fun though. Even Lewis looked like he was jacked up after the race.There is a Schumi v Mika vibe about the race, start of the season. This could be the best season in ages.
Just for some perspective on talent, that’s Lewis 15th consecutive season with at least a race win. Unreal, I hope he drives for many more years because he’s box office.
But going forward i fancy Red Bull to win constructor this year, their pit crews are just miles ahead from Merc's in action and i just fancy Perez over Bottas, wheel to wheel Perez might just edge it over Bottas.

It’s early and Gasly had some bad luck. But the 3rd place battle might just be something to watch all year. Tsunoda looks like the real deal. Gasly is a low key stud. Norris looks really good. Sainz is a clear upgrade over Vettel and Ferrari looks way more competitive. Hell driver of the day should probably have been Hamilton or Perez. Hamilton went 28 laps on that last stint and held off verstappen on tires 10 laps younger. GOATIt felt like a Jaws movie, you knew it was coming.
But Lewis not the GOAT for nothing, you'll still get the doubters though.
Btw. Tsunada should've been in the conversation for Driver of the Day?
He was 9th in his debut with only 2 cars not finishing is serious going. Picking off former world champions for shits and giggles.
For a while, he managed to hunt down and take Stroll in a proper battle over the last 10 laps.
This season might just revitalise Lewis and keep him on his peak for another couple of seasons.It’s early and Gasly had some bad luck.

Lewis seems more emotionally invested in it to. He was really upset with himself on that mistake. It's rejuvenated him.Boys I think we’ve got a championship race on our hands. Can’t wait to watch the onboard of Lewis plowing back from 9th to 2nd after the restart.
