A few teams have admitted they haven’t spent as much time as usual on this years car so they can be ready for it. Mercedes said they started working on next seasons in January.

(As well as stuff about skill, competition and fitness). So F1 is a sport. Snooker and darts aren't. Good to see that, so far this season, it looks like being more competitive than in recent years.

Out of interest - Have you watched Drive to Survive on Netflix. it's regenerated my interest in F1, I now take a bit more interest than who is first, Hamilton is an immense driver and a car way better than the other teams. But would Bottas have comeback from like Hamilton in that race, i doubt it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think his biggest problem is that the very good driver is being crushed by the focus/energy and brilliance of Hamilton now. He just can't keep up with the intensity that Hamilton brings to every race. As soon as Hamilton goes ahead it's almost as if he subconsciously moves into a support role, creates a gap between the cars and lets Hamilton push on without pressure.

Tazio Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Christ that was boring. DRS was introduced to make overtaking possible but now it’s made it too easy. One of the skills of a driver was defending their place now as soon as the car behind is less than a second gap you have no chance as they gain so much extra speed in the DRS zones. There isn’t even the lottery of cars breaking now as they’re all engineered to be in a comfort zone instead of pushing the envelope of performance. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mikey1874 Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Depends on what you want. Absolute full on racing would need a lot of changes. Tyres for a start. They are trying. In relative terms that was fairly exciting but only 4 or 5 actual interesting incidents it is true. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
