So F1 is back.

Sorry but with things happening in my life I am not going to have time to post Race previews this season.

Anyway looking forward to the first race, although really I can't see much of interest happening in terms of race win.

Well, looking at pre-season testing, unless Williams and Ferrari were sandbagging quite significantly, then I doubt anyone will catch Mercedes. They look to be a second per lap ahead of the rest of the field in Spain and I doubt very much that we've seen Mercedes full potential either.

So, it looks like it will be another Hamilton vs Rosberg this time around. May the best man win. Hopefully Nico won't cheat this year and if he beats Hammy fair and square he will definitely be a deserved champion.

Looking forward to seeing both McLaren's out on track. I doubt they'll finish the race but definitely looking forward to seeing that car. I think both Alonso and Button can win a race each this year. I want to see McLaren do well. They are one of my favorite teams and have two of my favorite drivers in their cars.

Ferrari look like they have made great strides forward over the last couple of months. I don't rate either driver as top drawer but it should be interesting to see where they are.

Massa and Bottas - can't wait to see these guys and if they can challenge Mercedes - they might have been sandbagging as well.

Finally. Max Verstappen - after all the noise we've heard about this guy and how good he looks in preseason testing, I can't wait to see how he gets on throughout his first weekend in F1.

12:30pm. But there'll be a race for old Group A and C Touring cars at 11am. I'll be there for that!

How is your new business venture going?

How is your new business venture going?

Thanks for asking Anfield.

Its amazing so far, saw a business advisor and they said we are so advanced for a small business only a couple of months in. We have advertising out there and jobs coming in thick and fast. New enquiries still coming in.

Exciting times.
