Ditto!

It's certainly going to be interesting...

Could he split the RB's?

Q1 has been red flagged, as bits of Leclerc's Ferrari are scattered across the track.

It gives me no pleasure, though. Delighted that Alonso made 5th, and would be pleased if he can finish up the order during the race and subsequent ones.

I am not surprised RBR was at top. I saw an interview with Alonso earlier this weekend in which he was trying to keep the hype train under control. I think they are fast, but not quite at the top yet. I like that Albon pulled the Williams up decently well. I am honestly surprised that Hulk did so well. While I expected the rookies to not do as well as their teammates, I did expect them to be a bit closer.

It will be interesting to see what race pace is like tomorrow and who is able to get the best performance out of tires over long runs.

Hmmm. Aside from Alonso (well, Aston generally), not a great deal of change despite C4 trying to really hype it up. RBR 1 and 2, Ferrari 3 and 4 and Merc 6 and 7. Not what I was hoping for. Good job by the Hulk though. I missed all of Q3 - what happened to Gasly?

Times are tight, which is good. I expect RBR to run off into the distance tomorrow, but hopefully there will be some stiff competition for them.

Agree - the tightness of times is a positive sign, although MIGHT be due to the testing here - all teams have had the opportunity to get their package as good as they can get it for this circuit. If we see the same thing at the next couple of races it bodes well for good season.

Race could throw up some unusual results given the high-deg nature of the surface and RB MAY not have it all their own way - they had a double DNF here last year of course so anything could happen.

This season is not all over. Red Bull were comprehensively clear, but they have to maintain development. The better you start, the less room there is for improvement. Their rivals' cars don't look like a handful, although the Ferrari was a bit twitchy when pushed (not necessarily the car), so things look promising.

Alonso probably did as well as expected if we kept out enthusiasm in check.

Can we award driver of the race to Ocon for comedy relief?

What a disaster start of the season for Alpine & McLaren. Alonso must be rubbing his hands with glee.

Sergeant having a nice debut.
