Phineas T. BARNUM of circus fame was reputed to have said ‘Always Leave Them Wanting More’. After the first race of the year in Australia the general feeling was ‘We have to live through a season of this?’ Insipid. Then not surprisingly the drivers learned how to get the best out of their cars. These are after all the twenty-one best drivers in the world. Then the development race began. When all the rules are thrown up in the air there are lots of places for development. Lose weight here, we need a new aero fin there, did you see what Ferrari is doing? You get the picture. And the racing. We have enjoyed a number of classic events this year. Like Hungary. We saw Lando NORRIS take the pole and mess up the first lap again. Carlos SAINZ crashing into Oscar PIASTRI auditioning for Lance STROLL’s place ay Aston Martin. Lewis HAMILTON complaining about all his penalties. Like they weren’t deserved. Blocking the Australian in qualifying or exceeding the pit lane speed limit. Or Max VERSTAPPEN’s move of the year. All the time the final podium positions were in doubt. The next race can’t come soon enough.
