Thoughts on the pinnacle of motorsport, wrestling, fitba (both European and NFL), and occasionally, regrettably, politics. He/Him. Dyspraxic. Scuderia Ferrari/Charles Leclerc, Dundee United, Everton, Indianapolis Colts, Scotland. Happily taken.

F1 testing is like reading tea leaves—except the tea is oil, the leaves are tire shreds, and the future is still unclear. McLaren looks fast, Ferrari is cautiously optimistic, and Verstappen is too busy ignoring boos to care. Meanwhile, Toto Wolff is "worried." So, business as usual.

So essentially Sky, pipe down about the whole "McLaren are miles ahead" schtick

CHARLES LECLERC #16 🗣️ It was more tricky today on track because of what are unusual weather conditions for Bahrain, with cooler temperatures and even some rain.

😌

Stop doomscrolling for a second and look at this absolute unit that visited me earlier today

Well, this is another long fuel run

Sainz off again there

Once again, Lewis is the GOAT.

Zhou really suits the Ferrari red

Bottas catching absolute STRAYS there

charles i almost had a heart attack

Also it has to be said how much of a boost it is for Ferrari to be able to build a car with a good front end that suits BOTH of their drivers this year

Leclerc very much being underrated for his title challenge this year by the Sky commentary team

Sainz with a spin!

Once again, MBS needs to be sacked immediately

Lewis best lap so far - 1:29.379 Lewis best lap in 2024 testing: 1:31.999 [-2.620] ‼️ Ferrari best lap so far - 1:29.379 Ferrari best lap in 2024 testing - 1:29.921 [-0.542] Mercedes best lap so far - 1:29.778 Mercedes best lap in 2024 testing - 1:30.368 [-0.590]

Okay I know it means nothing but i've been watching Lewis's sector data and a couple of others, the sf-25 gains so much speed with or without DRS enabled on the straight that others aren't getting with DRS enabled

Enjoying the analysis of "the Bahrain Grand Prix of Carlos Sainz"

Hahahah when you accidentally type a search in and Skeet it I'm officially old

Haas is feeling pretty smug right now 😂
