Been a Ferrari guy since I started watching F-1 in the early 2000's, may be another disappointing year..... It has been fun to watch McLaren the last few years tho..... The Russian Rookie spent more time off the track than on, lol.

I hope to see Sainz do well with Leclerc. Maybe they won't compete for the top spots, but would at least be nice to see them both getting podiums throughout the season.

Pretty cool data analysis of the battle between Max and Lewis here:

Hamilton vs Verstappen – The data that shows what was really happening in the cockpit during their Bahrain battle | Formula 1®

The battle for victory in the Bahrain Grand Prix had fans around the world on the edge of their seats, with Lewis Hamilton just holding off Max Verstappen by 0.7s at the chequered flag. But how did their fight play out over car telemetry – and what can we learn from the data? We take a closer look…

Talks about corner speeds, gear, steering input, speed, throttle/brake, tire degradation comparisons, etc.

I hope the battle for the lead is this close for several races this season. I know that's wishful thinking, even though they look to be closely matched on paper, but fingers are crossed.
