- Verstappen: Lost win in Bahrain “is not going to matter” if we have fastest car
- The classic rivalry for ‘best of the rest’ and six more Imola talking points
- Ocon: We need to extract the maximum from the car to score points
- Vettel feeling “not at home in the car yet” after tough weekend

You still have the old team names on here, Racing Point and Renault.

I noticed that too. On the other hand, I suppose you could say they’ve scored as many points as Alpine and Aston Martin so far in 2021.

Aston Martin have scored a point with Stroll in P10. It is not reflected in the standings here maybe because of the incorrect team name.

At least Hamilton starting the season on top should discourage all but the moronically optimistic to expect a title battle this season.

Red Bull didn’t respond to the first Mercedes stop, afraid of Bottas taking advantage of a (V)SC when he goes long, but in the title race that doesn’t matter. If you’re Verstappen and you’re going for the title, you know only one thing matters: finish ahead of Hamilton.
Perhaps a bit naive from the strategists to think Verstappen could easily overtake Hamilton at the end, when they know the advantage of the Red Bull is only prevalent in the sweeping corners that don’t allow overtaking. On the straights, it’s even-steven.

Bottas has 17 points not 16. FL.

Third = 15, FLAP = 1; 15+1=16

Ricciardo, Alonso and Tsunoda should have bold lines in that diagram, they’re formally “first” drivers in their teams.
