As usual it s@cks for us => https://gp33.nl/f1-nieuws/het-afwijk...-van-australie

Race is 05:00 AM !
For the US, this is just par for the course. I've gotten used to not watching F1 live, just re-watch on F1TV when I wake up. I might actually pull off watching the Australian GP live this weekend though.

News in is that SAI will be fit enough to return to his Ferrari seat for Melbourne and BEA will carry on with his F2 campaign.
It can't be ignored of what is probably being discussed in Maranello now, that any manager would be asking, if Hamilton is the right choice to replace Sainz for 2025 with Bearmans performance at Jeddah first time out at what is considered the most dangerous track of them all. I'm predicting more #FerrariThings with their present decision.

Looks like MAX has everyone around his little finger with all sorts of speculative things being suggested by uneasy journos desperate for a good story, I'm sure he only discusses these things seriously in private with family.
In the meantime he is in close proximity with Marko and the job in hand to add to those 56 wins.

Meanwhile at Mercedes they claim to have something 'extra' for Melbourne.

#FerarriThings paying hammy BIG money to be LEC's #2

Should have kept Carlos or took on Bearman as a project. It would be nice to find your next young star. Might was well learn if the Bear is boom or bust before Charlie gets too old.

This should be a no brainer in that wine region, obvious there is a different way of thinking with Fred and the others who tell him what to do. You can bet your bottom dollar 'Monty is shaking his head even in his sleep.

Charlie will beat LEW in every 2025 race . LEW will go down at Ferrari.
LEW will sink like a brick in the water !

You won't screw Charlie at Ferrari !
