I admit, I am quite looking forward to the season start in March.

Lewis in Red. Both Ferrari and McClaren ending last season with stronger teams/cars than Red Bull. How will Sainz do at Williams? Lawson in a Red Bull and can he stay closer to Verstappen, unlike Perez? Also curious to see how Antonelli does in a full time seat as opposed to the snapshot practice drives. Audi taking over Sauber and will there be a notable turn-around for the team this year or not.

A number of potentially interesting things that make it feel quite worth watching to see how they pan out this year.

100% agree. Ready to go. Injust hope we can get Andretti in with Cadillac. It is all BS that they want them to buy another team etc.

I am gonna watch.... buy subscription

Got to watch Lewis in red

And Carlos in Williams .... OMG

Carlos is still my guy even though Ferrari is my team. Just don't get it. Spend all that money on Lewis who MAYBE has 2 more years.

I think Lawson not gonna make it ....
I think Ferrari can take the constructors title.....

Remember Nico Rosberg saying Lewis is by far the best driver he ever met, Nico was doing what he thought was a great lap, only to be bettered by Lewis, by 0.5 second ..... I think Lewis is insane, and I like his attitudes

I hope Lewis will take his 8th

But I think Verstappen behaves like a 5 year old offended kid .... and he is a f#$#F idiot IMHO
I never forget when Verstappen crashed with Lewis and his car ended on top of Lewis .... he just runs away not even bothering to check condition of Lewis

Compare to Ayrton Senna, he saw Eric Comas crashing and jumped out of the car, risking his own life to save a fellow racing driver, probably saving Eric Comas´s life .... some different mindsets out there

Agree 100%. My level of appreciation of Verstappen has only decreased each year. He thinks he deserves more just based on the fact his car has been of higher quality. He is a great driver don't get me wrong but to me Alonso is our most recent great over even Hamilton et al.

Max is no doubt a talented driver, but I also generally really dislike him too. I think he's petulant and irresponsible and dangerous when pushed.

People level whining accusations at Lewis and the others too, and to some degree it is true. They all complain to their own advantage. With Max, it's different though. He's made several threats to other drivers and last season we got to see again what happens when someone catches up and challenges him.

Well ... I watched mostly all I can see with Lewis and anywhere he seems to come out as a descent, likeable guy with great attitude

They should look at some of the US NASCAR & IndyCar rules.
The F1 yellow flag pit lane rules are stupid.
In the US on many courses the Qualifying Start/Finish line is at the end of the back stretch, so the cars don't have to do a complete cool-down lap.

Sky Sports needs to get different microphones for pit lane segments.
