    They have thrown in the towel so early. That says that are very lost on how to solve their current challenges. Tooo late for a change now, they have to ride it out in the midfield. I bet the designer of the W14 crap would get a pay rise at the end of the year.

    They are looking so spineless at the mo. I was quite surprised at how they let Abu Dhabi 2021 go so easily, no fight no backbone which this sport is all about. Their driver do that for them every race weekend and when it came time for them to show some spunk, nothing!

    All 'stappen needs is a well timed safety car and he'll be right at the front. Hell he may be up front by lap 25 without one.
    I guess it's up to 'troll, and Lec' to slow him down. Judging by top speeds forget 'troll that rig is too slow, I guess it's up to "Shal", or 'los

    Got crazy today, might actually get interesting tomorrow. I'm sure Fred will be trying to find that top step on the podium, and plenty of mixed drivers towards the top to keep it spicy.

    It will be interesting to see if Checo can stay up front, and if so will he try to control pace to give Max a better chance to catch up quicker. The most Checo and Fred stretch things out, the farther Max has to catch up. And even more interesting to see if RB plays a hand in ordering a similar strategy.

    Fred says the RB has the race pace... but then again he wouldn't admit it to the press if he thinks he can blow Checo out of the water either.

    If Checo can get off the line in the lead and negotiate backmarkers efficiently, it would take poor pitstops or safety car to bring Verstappen in contention with him. I think this a race for Checo to win or lose. But l fully expect Verstappen to be on the podium, he has some very troublesome fast cars to pass which may cost him time. I think he could win it if he can clear these cars ahead of him before midway into the race.

    It would be quite interesting if Alonso steals a win from the second. It is not inconceivable that Checo's gearbox fails as well

    One can always hope. What a great story Fred has become! It is like all the haters disappeared. This could turn into the feel-good story of the millennium

    This is ominous. Checo has issues?
