Haas and Alfa Romeo to me have made great strides forward . Their task to improve from where they are now is much easier than what McLaren has ahead of them . It will be interesting to see how consistent these two teams can be .

Alpha Tauri/Aston Martin not sure how good or bad they are . Maybe after next week we will know more. We all know Mercedes will continue to get better and Red Bull will fight back also . Ferrari is the spoiler. They have pace/handling/reliability based on one race . If that continues it will be an interesting season.

It will be interesting to see who moves forward this weekend and who falls back . Lots of data to pour over and not much time to make parts . I bet a lot of overtime pay this week 😁
This year's car is like the last one that Eric Boulier was responsible for. Which begs the question: Will McLaren fire someone over this years's car? It would have to be Zak Brown. Easily the slowest car on the grid last weekend. It was so bad, I think they need a B spec car, which the budget cap won't allow. It's going to be a long long season. The car is that bad.
