      I thought the midfield was exciting last year, but other than a few reliability issues which are expected in the first race, I felt like this race was much less interesting than Bahrain last year. It’s only the first race so hopefully it gets more interesting.

        Bahrain last year was mostly better because we had Alonso magic. And the race wasn’t great I wasn’t saying that either. But I’m fucking tired of comment after comment after comment after comment after comment after comment after comment after comment after comment after posts of super high effort and creativity about how “seasons over” since the first day of testing. Everybody was expecting Max on top he’s just dominant. But the midfield seem very tight, most teams seem to have stepped it up. All of the good stuff from last season happened in f1.5 anyway and this year looks like it’s going to be even closer and involve more drivers.
