I just feel sorry for the supporters who's team will end up behind Haas. They will hear about it for the next decade.

I'll predict 3 cars kamikaze'd into turn 1, some nice chaos to start the season

Bottas doesn't race for Mercedes nor in a Merc customer car, so he's not available :)

Hamilton to take out Russell and another driver, thereby setting the scene, and possibly the lie he's been telling, that the Merc isn't a race winner. /jks

Anything regarding Merc pace - they moan all pre-season for the last 5 years I think about being slow. And then proceed to dominate so ya, I'll wait for the first race and ignore everything until then.

They do have a habit of andbagging, but I think they may have issues at the start. Well, they make have fixed things come the race, but the porpoising was quite serious for them and definitely would affect balance and stabilty. Will be interesting to see how quickly they, and the other teams, can rectify it.

But in Barcelona Hamilton and Russel was the fastest without much effort. This week they were just trolling the others with the funny sidepods.

Nah, it's a brand new design, there were bound to be challenges. Changing the sidepods the way they have has a huge impact on the overall aero on the car, so they're discovering all the quirks and changes necessary.

Still, they have excellent engineers, I'm sure they'll sort it quickly.

Maybe, but I still think they will pitch the first race with the sidepods from Barcelona

Nah, all the hate is reserved for one driver. No idea what's so different on the one in comparison to the others that he gets so much hate on here.

I’m pretty sure you know what the difference is. It’s been called out before but hasn’t changed unfortunately.

Mercedes F1 star Lewis Hamilton to change his name to honour his mother | Life

Seven-time F1 champion Lewis Hamilton will change his name to honour his mother Carmen Larbalestier, he revealed on Monday as he prepares to challenge for a record eighth world title.

Oh dear, guess he wasn't getting enough attention. Commentators will have their work cut out for them this season...

Or maybe he is doing something to honour his mother. But then again, whatever he does will get criticized by someone

That's fine. Then why insist on racing by his double-barrel name after everyone already knows him by something else. And will inevitably start whining when he's still instinctively called by his old name...

Why does it matter so much to you what name he goes by?
