F1 for at least a dozen years the championship is decided before the first race is run.
The financiers, engineers and test drivers in November determine the entire year
For two years one car won all but 2? Races
Mercedes for three years, then Red Bull for two years and lately it McClaren
Not much to enjoy about a parade that goes 220mph and all the other teams are just praying for a shunt to This Years November Car
Far better racing competition in other leagues. There is this small town race starting tomorrow , think it's called Le Mans that is far better sport

Like all the those filling the stands for practice 3 l'm enjoying the "parade" longing for the smell and the sounds of the live event.
As an insider which manufacture will dethrone McClaren in the upcoming season/s

  Vehicle racing is a major passion of mine, be it from LeMans to Lawnmower.
  F1 is a billion dollar parade. Only lead changes on first turn and pit stops. ( or I should say box box box )

    I spent two years restoring this 66 sleeper excluding the top and the transaxle.
    1,886lb 2 liter dino'd 178 hp. The only outward give away were the stock rims widened to 7".
    I was able to get my Double Bass and an acoustic 136 amp in it with a passenger.

      The closer to original, the better, IMO.
