Dude drives like a psycho. Everyone will make excuses about him being a hard racer.

What an intense start. Leclerc must not have had any temps in his tires. Also, MVP Mothers... I can't believe we get to watch a sporting event on ESPN (again this year) for 1.5 hours and not have commercials.

Looks like one Ferrari had similar early tire issues, but man, when they got right, he just bullied past Bottas. That was nice.

He has that a-hole "this track is mine" attitude that says "future world champpion."

But I think the damage to Sainz is because of the wider front wings this year. It was a bad decision, there are going to be more incidents like this this year.

Racing Max is always a bad decision. The guy drove over the kerb then went wide and ran in to someone else.

Par for the course.

RIC will close that gap and VER will do it again.

That Bottas pass on Verstappen makes it look like the Mercedes has way more low-end grunt than the Honda.

Do you guys think a Ricciardo regrets going to Renault yet, or do you think he will be patient with them?

He went to the team that gave him shitty engines for his old team.

I dont blame him for switching teams, but damn.

He understands that Renault doesn't expect to "compete" until next year. Ricciardo has 49 million reasons to be patient.

That’s what never made sense to me and made me wonder if he would quickly get frustrated. He was openly displeased with the engine issues the last couple of years at a Red Bull, but then went to the team that supplied the Red Bull engines.

RIC doesn't regret anything yet. There is a larger plan.

The 3rd DRS zone is terrible.

Drag Reduction System. It allows drivers to open their rear wing (in certain straightaways on the track if they are within a second of the car in front of them) to reduce drag and get a speed advantage over the car in front of them and a better chance to overtake.
