I'm really not liking the direction this season is going. Furthermore, it could be ominous for the competitiveness going into 2020 - if Mercedes have this kind of head start on the others under these aero regs. Can't see Ferrari challenging Mercedes if the cars are anywhere near each other...

Source? It would be so, so boring if this is another year for Merc to run away with it. That basically means they'll run home with it in 2020 as well and the 2021 regulations is the first real chance of shaking up the field a bit.

Keeping in mind the fact that Albert Park is a very specific track, that's mightily impressive by the Mercs. Similar gap to Ferrari last season though in quali, and then Ferrari were the faster car for the next 4 races until Spain. I certainly hope this is not representative of what's to come...

Watch the series. A lot of it was quite bland. Loved Gunther Steiner and the tension/awkwardness between Horner/Cyril, and in terms of acting like a season review for all the teams bar Ferrari and Mercedes - as well as getting me hyped up for the new season. Worth the watch if you're into it.

Slightly disappointed that the Red Bull livery is just a one off. The Mercedes one is great, yes. Let's hope McLaren and Ferrari gives us something new and not just a repeat of 2018 like Toro Rosso and Renault.

He chickened out of sending Kimpembe off. Made a problem for himself with showing everyone a yellow early on. Then couldn't be consistent.

So: The Toro Rosso livery was a copy from last year. And the Williams one is godawful. How do one create something so ugly in 2019? Don't they employ designers for this? The Haas one was slick. Really interested in seeing the Merc one after all these teases...

Haas unveiled a digital render of their VF-19 today. Stunning, IMO. https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.first-look-all-the-angles-of-haas-new-2019-livery.l4qlJmDtedmTkv0zan1bH.html

Would be my no. 1 choice if having a free pick from every CB on the planet. Perfect combination of experience, physicality, good age, solid on the ball and a leader.

Hilarious. In all seriousness though, I'm becoming quite the fan of Formula E. The racing is bonkers. That last race was like a demolition derby and the one before in Marrakeech was just all around brilliant entertainment. Interesting that drivers like Massa and Vandoorne struggle so much.

I thought he was even better against Spurs, but he's shone since Ole came in. Incredible that he's been so misused under two consecutive managers.

No. Could have fought for third.

Andreas Seidl signing for McLaren. Interesting. Would love for McLaren to return to the sharp end of the grid.

Looks like Arrivabene is done for at Ferrari. Mattia Binotto in to replace him according to Gazzetta.

Yeah. Ocon's fast and will probably get the 2020 seat, but no threat to Hamilton. Russell might be the next threat internally. So unless Red Bull can give Verstappen a car on par with Merc, I can't see Ham getting wrestled from his crown. Nevertheless: Leclerc is a gem.
