F1 Testing

Ferrari looking strong they say.

Almost 1/2 second faster than MB on same tires. No mention of course about fuel loads.

And as they say, no points are given out in Testing.....

They came out of the chute fairly quickly last year too.

I think Leclerc will push Vettel pretty hard.

Yep, Hank, the F-1 season is just around the corner and I am quite sure you are looking forward to all those races and picks coming up this year in the next edition of Pick The Podium!

Here is a Wikipedia article explaining just abut everything anyone would want to know about the 2019 season. It officially begins on March 17, 2019.

A friend told me there is a new series on Netflix called Formula 1 - Drive to Survive, starting March 8.


I had a look at the trailer and it appears to be in Ultra 4K HDR.

I added it to my "list".

Wow!! The whole season of it all at once! I'm not used to Netflix.

I have to say it is visually stunning in Ultra 4K.
Seriously stunning.
And the audio is also infinitely better than you'd get in a broadcast from Sky.

Yeah, the series is amazing. The tension between Abiteboul and Horner, Danny Ric's decision. I wasn't sure I could dislike Verstappen more or like Danny more but both happened.

If you have Amazon Prime, they had a series about Stoff and McLaren the season before last. Good watch. McLaren is a dysfunctional mess. It's called "Grand Prix Driver".



I hope Verstappen is leading late in Australia and his Honda engine blows up.

All the pundits are stating Ferrari is the clear winner after winter testing and are to be a force to be reckoned with according the F-1 website. I am not so sure Hamilton and Bottas and the Silver Arrows aren't sandbagging. We shall know in one week.

I liked Dutchie's meeting with the wall in Monaco fro his in-car.
