Don’t feel alone if you were jumping already as the Q1 session went underway! The cold track of Bahrain was set on fire! Set on fire not just by the heat from the tires but by the performances that we witnessed during the first round of qualifying for the main race on Sunday. While everyone expected utter dominance from the Red Bulls of Max Verstappen and Sergio Perez, things have turned out entirely different!
With the chip-ins from everyone, including Fernando Alonso, George Russell, and Carlos Sainz, it just might not be a smooth sail for Red Bull, as there’s potentially a chance for a four-way championship, or rather a multi-side championship, at this point. With each driver and team topping the other, this has gotten all the fans excited, as there was a gap of just 1.1 seconds for the entire grid.
Max Verstappen just might not take things easy as the fight for the title starts here and now. There is hope that this might be one of the best seasons in the history of the sport. The excitement is now only expected to get higher as we proceed. All the teams are in the bag, and we can’t keep calm regardless of who asks us to sit down!

The hype train is thus now not just for Aston Martin, but rather for the entire grid. The game, as it currently stands, rests upon the drivers’ skills and perseverance from here on.
Bang bang bang!!

Honestly i just love the fact that the whole grid is only apart by 1.2 sec from first to last… should be an interesting season if this stays like this.
