thats something i wasnt aware of. that this isnt an FIA test like the latter 2. they booked the circuit themselves
According to driver's "The cars look really cool on the track and fans are going to love the new rules"
So probably the exact opposite in reality but it remains to be seen.
Having said that, because I've finally ditched my Murdoch's Sports Ransom after barely watching any of last seasons races live, you can guarantee this will be the greatest season of F1 ever.

Murdoch hasn't owned sky for some time.
For real tracks I watch on firestick.
Street races I watch ch4 highlights if at all. Skipped 3 races entirely last year. All street tracks. Watched zero sprints.

its was only day 1 time. but mercedes are looking very ominous 151 laps. according to sky F1 on youtube 1:18.594. half a second of hadjar. on the C1 & id assume on heavy fuel load as well
the paddock rumours of mercedes dominance may be true. if the protests are an indictator, red bull ford might have hit the ground running if theyve found the same compression rate loophole as mercedes.

when they say, times mean nothing interesting i think we are hoping that's true. because at the moment it is pretty ominous. because mercedes will be heavily sandbagging & yet miles ahead
as i was saying day 1. Russell was on C1, likely heavy fuel when he did + the paddock rumours of how impressive mercedes was
