Season so far looks like more of the same. Maybe Red Bull have closed the gap a tiny bit but it’s still the Hamilton and Mercedes show. Perez is an improvement over Albon maybe.



I can see how on paper it may look that way but that's pretty inaccurate. Red Bull haven't done themselves any favors yet this season and it just so happens those missteps have fallen right into Mercedes(mostly Lewis') hands. Red Bull has had the better car in 2 of the 3 races.

Right now it should be 2-1 Max/Lewis with Max in the lead, not the other way round and the constructors fight tighter than it is. I think we'll see Perez continuing to improve but his early results haven't helped their cause much.

Romagna wasn’t a speed issue for Mercedes. Hamilton spun out, somehow recovered and still finished second. So both teams had missteps. I’m not suggesting he’s much faster but LH still has an edge on Verstappen. I’m ready to see a change also btw. Would love for Norris or Perez to step up.
