reasonably polite from Max, Ocon cost him the victory by a not necessary move. (1 lap behind)

Reasonably polite?! its chutzpah (karma?) considering how many shunts Max himself has caused, gettin' a taste of his own medicine is more like it--and I'm a Max fan! I also followed Jos back in the day.
 
Good and competitive race today. Hamilton is very good and lucky. Max is very talented and young. His time will come. Ocon made a stupid move but that’s now history.

A shift taking place in F1. Former champions about to retire or close to retirement. New young talent coming in with lots to prove.

Pumped for the Australian GP this weekend! Lot of things I’m excited to see how they play out - new aero rules; Honda in the RB cars; drivers in a new cars; rookie drivers.

VERY excited for this too, especially after seeing the Netflix F1 series in 4k which has been awesome at giving more insights into the other teams (besides Ferrari and Merc) and their challenges. Just finished watching the episode when Ricciardo changes teams from RB to Renault. They did an excellent job of putting this together and conveying the tension and pressure that the teams and drivers experience. The 4k and sound are AWESOME, too! Great appetizer for the main course this weekend is to binge the whole season!
 
Re: Formula 1

I watched the Netflix special throughout this past week. They did a great job! Liberty is working hard to appeal to the US market.

The color correction and editing were incredible, I agree. And I only streamed in 1080p.

Re: Formula 1

I am also excited to see if they escape the generally boring events of last year.

the only interest I have in watching the horsey cars from fiat is Leclerc. I predict he's going to show vettel a clean set of heels more often than not. Im also looking forward to the wheel banging between Max and Charles--one could hope. I'll keep my championship prediction to myself until the Chinese or azerbaijan gp.
 
Whiting’s passing a big surprise and a significant loss to F1. RIP Charlie.

BTW, I’m hoping for a competitive season in 2019.
 
If only F1 was 10% as exciting as last week's 'IndyCar' open wheel race in St. Petersburg Florida.
But IndyCar has an amateur feel to it.
in race management
in team management
the drivers
in TV coverage
 
Re: Formula 1

I’ve come to realize Qualifying should not be taken for granted, as far as viewer enjoyment. It’s where you really get to see each team, driver, and car show what it’s capable of, turned up to 100. I always love seeing the onboard camera view for entire laps, especially in Q3.

That being said, hopefully this year proves to have fun, competitive, and exciting races.

Come on guys, time to make 2019 predictions:

K: Constructor: Mercedes, Bulls, Ferrari. Botas comes in 3rd a bunch
Driver: Verstappen, Hamilton, Leclerc Lewis and Max down to final 2 races. Max hip checks Lewis for the championship....

Japanese do not like to be embarrassed Honda will be the power plant this year
 
As much as Merc and Sky F1 want us to believe Ferrari might have the edge, Merc has to be the favorite at the start. Saw a clip where Brundle spoke his mind and said as much, too. But it does appear that it will be even closer yet again this year.

I’m curious to see if the gap down to 3 has been closed by Red Bull with Honda now.

And the midfield looks to again be fun. I hope we get a couple wins from outside the top three teams; that would be neat.

Ha..!

Honda has been in the same embarrassing position for almost 3 decades now and you should add Danny to your drivers list, speaking of , Lewis does well when his teammates have to pull over ..
