MUFC Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 Pre-season testing is in Bahrain, the dates are below. The most obvious things we want to see is close competition across the field and more race winners, along with unexpected drivers winning or at least getting onto the podium. Will RB walk away with it? Can Ferrari challenge for a season and can Mercedes get in the mix? Can't wait to see how Alonso does at his new team. I wonder if Ocon and Gasly and Mag vs the Hulk gets rough? Thursday 23rd February, Friday 24th February, Saturday 25th February.
nudge Posted February 2, 2023 Posted February 2, 2023 Expect Mercedes to improve and do much better, same with Ferrari, hopefully, so we can have a bit more competition for the title. The rest will still be far away from the top 3. Predict Williams to be the most improved team. I will probably watch much less than I used to, while still keeping an eye on all the developments.

Eco Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 I used to complain about how uncompetitive the grid was when Lewis was dominating, and then sure enough I was bored again last year with Max dominating the grid. This year I'm hoping to see more out of Sainz, who I have grown to like more and more. Russell is hard not to like and I'd like to see him improve on an impressive rookie year with Mercedes. And then there is Sarg, who I just hope doesn't get too overwhelmed and is the next Latifi.

Moderator Tommy Posted February 23, 2023 Moderator Posted February 23, 2023 First session of the season has ended. Red Bull, Ferrari and Williams with a lot of laps in the bag.

MUFC Posted February 23, 2023 Author Posted February 23, 2023 I only literally watched a couple of minutes and the volume was down. Was Max's car bouncing alot or was I seeing things?

Moderator Tommy Posted February 23, 2023 Moderator Posted February 23, 2023 Reports saying Lance Stroll fractured both of his wrists in his bicycle accident, and was operated on one. If that's true, there's no way he's going to be in the car for the first race.

Eco Posted February 23, 2023 Posted February 23, 2023 Just now, Tommy said: 3 Podiums is much more than many other drivers have achieved. Ha - I'm well aware, and I don't think he's a bad driver at all, it was just an easy joke to make given @MUFC's reply.
