There’s like 1700 folk here and not a lot of action so let’s get some discussion going as it ain’t a race weekend.

I liked Renault so defaulted to Alpine when they changed. Now have a soft spot for Sauber and looking forward to their Audi partnership. Also love Bottas.

I was a McLaren fan back in the early 2000s because the guy down the hall was a Schumacher die hard. Became hard to be a fan for a bit in the late aughts (2007) but they had two awesome drivers. Followed Hamilton after that. Want to like mclaren again, but it's been a little hard again.

All in all, though, I cheer for chaos. Sudden rain, good passes, late braking and everything that comes with it.

I've been a follower of McLaren since the James Hunt era, but agree it's been difficult to work up too much enthusiasm for them since Hamilton left. Since then they've just wasted the talents of a series of decent drivers with garbage cars. I hope they do get their act together because I think Norris and Piastri could be a very interesting combo in a decent car.
