It was a great strategy from Ferrari (and arguably a mistake from Hamilton from insisting to come in early). I hope it wasn't just good luck and they've actually improved from past few years. The car seems slightly behind from Mercedes but not too much.

Can see a battle with Seb and Kimi with Ferrari and Lewis taking advantage, claiming another title. Just my opinion!!!... It will be close though!!!!.......

Massive pileup in race 3 of the Supercars season last night. It took so long to cleanup that by the time they resumed under a safety car, race control declared that the race would end with full points awarded (only 3 laps were completed). Thankfully, common sense came into play and it was later declared that NO points would be awarded. Why not just resume the race this morning and make today a double header with race 4 or reschedule at a later date? Needless to say, there was an uproar on the paddock (and on social media ).
Watch from about 7:00 on. Talk about a gut punch for the #3 Corvette.

Great race in China, the battle between Hamilton and Vettel is well and truly on this year. Verstappen passing 9 cars on the oppening lap was pretty special as well.

Hinch wins in Long Beach! Weird race, overall, with all four Andretti cars dropping out due to mechanical issues, despite both Rossi and RHR having a shot to win it towards the end. And Bourdais leads points in the 18 Dale Coyne car with a 2nd place finish today.

And occurrences like this has always been the cruelty of racing. Just like a puncture on the last lap after some driver has led an entire race. Sh*t, unfortunately, happens.

Well holy sh*t! Alonso has just announced he'll be missing the Monaco GP to take part in the Indy 500 in an Andretti run McLaren entry, that will be smoething to see.

I'm so excited to see Alonso run Indy, partly because it'll be fun to see him run on an oval in a pack, and partly because it's great exposure for IndyCar, and they need everything they can get. Hopefully, this starts a trend, though with those two races being on the same day, it's still doubtful. I guess this is the silver lining to come from McLaren's struggles.

That was a great drive on Newgarden's part! Wrestled that spot away from Dixon late and that ended up being the race-winning move. I'd feel bad for Power, but I just don't.
