    So far so good for the reds.
    Our car seems relatively smooth to drive.

    Both Perez and Verstappen are running the new suspension, not just Max as reported elsewhere.

    Promising start, even so around 7 secs off the lap record.

    Ferrari looks to be on solid footing. Let’s see what happens when everyone goes for broke tomorrow.

    Top speeds on fastest lap in FP1
    Gasly: 310/298/304/290
    Leclerc: 309/294/301/287
    Russell: 306/292/300/283
    Verstappen: 311/296/300/289

    Mercedes low on Power Unit it seems, and Alpha Tauri quite high

    Damon Hill thinks it looks great, LOL. But then again, he would, wouldn’t he. Magic sidepods, you know.

    Mercedes plans F1 floor experiments in bid to cure porpoising
    Lewis Hamilton and George Russell will run with different floor configurations in practice for Formula 1's Bahrain Grand Prix as the Mercedes team chases answers to its porpoising problems.

    Speaking ahead of practice, George Russell said it was important that Mercedes approached its situation in a methodical way, as there was no obvious solution that was going to magically turn things around.

    “We are continuously trying things, but we don't have a silver bullet at the moment that we think is absolutely going to clear our problems,” he said.

    It would be smart to temper or even underplay expectations….but it’s gonna be tough because this pre-season was so smooth and positive. and FP1 went smoothly as well with both Ferraris going quickly on medium tires.

    If the Red Cars are on the front row of the grid in Bahrain I’ll allow myself to be ecstatic!

    George is going to generally outpace his colleague all year. After all those years of Wally, it’s going to be a tough slog for the old guard.
