At the start I was like:
“Maybe a Merc-Merc-Ferrari-Ferrari”.
But a wild Honda appears in front of the 2 Ferraris…
I don’t know what to think: I want Honda to do well, but I don’t like Max Verstappen.
+Andy Harman me as well
Andy Harman then you just don’t like real racing
Williams giving ferrari a few tips on ‘improving’
I just want to say… mclaren harping on Honda about their power unit… and look at it now. They still midfield and Honda is winning podiums.
That’s why allonso retired, couldn’t stand Honda taking podiums with him stucked in the midfield and being passed by them
‘Podiums’
This is Honda’s first podium (and well done). It’s a little early to start handing out full season awards based on a single race through a park (more like a street circuit than the purpose built high speed circuits that are coming).
BTW: Verstappen 3rd; Hulkenberg 7th; Kvyat 10th; Gasly 11th; Norris 12th; Albon 14th.
So apart from MV’s great drive, there wasn’t a lot in the overall battle between the Honda and Renault powered cars (7th & 12th – after Norris was held up badly by Giovinazzi for many laps – vs 10th, 11th and 14th.). I’d say the Renault-Honda battle will be one of the more interesting ones to follow throughout the year…
Yeah Mclaren talked up their car but look what happens when you put the Honda in the actual best chassis in the field.
Well congratulations to Honda stepping up because even though McLaren might’ve been up-selling their chassis, the Honda was still solidly the worst engine in the field for years.
WOW! Red Bull in the podium with honda engine…shame on you mclaren.
You have to think Honda was reentering after a decade and was under developed and had problems with the mgu-h. They are one of the reasons for the proposed 2021 engine regs
Dude, at the start of their third season Honda delivered an engine that didn’t fit with the transmission. It’s great that they got their shit together after five years, but everyone shitting on McLaren for dropping Honda after three years of horrible performance and a relationship that obviously was just not working is getting ridiculous
+Dudlinger It was Mclarens fault, they are incapable of building the right car, not to mention how to respect the Japanese
The *Honda power* was amazing. Great job Japan!
Bottas: _”F1 2019 Season, _*_It’s Valtteri…”_*
James: _”Holy…”_
It seems the Honda power unit is quite powerful in other team.
Honda powered cars finished 3rd, 10th, 11th and 14th. Renault powered cars finished 7th & 12th. Verstappen drove exceptionally well here, but aside from him the battle between the two engine manufacturers was quite close. Hopefully this will continue through the year…
ShmuelWeintraub
So that’s two Renault powered cars that didn’t finish at all. Also; 16 points for ‘Honda’ and only 6 for ‘Renault’.
+TheFilthyLiam : Yes, one with engine (looked like hybrid/battery from the colour of the smoke coming out) problems and one “other”… I suspect aerodynamic issues after DR battered his barge boards during the first lap incident, but have not heard. Almost all the Honda points came from Max… he was the difference today, not the Honda engine.
Looking forward to seeing the relative performance of the engines (all) on a proper racing circuit rather than in the park…
Everyone seems to forget, even when the dramas with Renault started and they looked to have no engine supplier for that year, Honda was an option and they still turned it down because it wasn’t as fast or reliable, Red Bull had to do some backpedaling to get a deal done or there was no engine in that car that year, they’ve got the Honda now that it’s had some extensive development but there was no chance Red Bull would have considered that engine in 2015/16/17.
RB seems to contrive their own results too, seemed funny that they where carrying on about how bad the Renault must be, “look at all Ricciardo’s retirements”, meanwhile the other side of the garage is blazing in multiple wins (when he’s not blazing into other cars) and when Daniel did manage a pole that team was genuinely shocked as if that wasn’t supposed to happen?
They damn better be 2 years later. They sucked for three years, if they hadn’t been able to make a decent engine even after five years…
Ferrari have a special ability to somehow always disappoint their fans

Without Maurizio Arrivabene la Scuderia va male! Molto male!
Its like Ducati MotoGP without Gigi dall’Igna!
+BeyerT1 Vettel already said it the car is not good enough before the race. You know he speak the truth from his expression.
maybe honda wasnt mclarens problem
You can hear EVERYONE go “aawww” when Danny loses his front wing?
Lmao?
it’s fake
Since there’s gonna be an extra point for the fastest lap each race. Can we plz have the on-board view of that lap after the upload of race highlights?
What the hell did you have for breakfast

Switch the Torpedo with Gasly. Torpedo is faster.
According to radio, Gasly “overtake” button is not functioning. I dont really sure what it is
+adib z I think its a high hp engine setting the drivers can use for short bursts to pass
+adib z idk how much effect this button has but gasly had fresher and softer tiers than kvyat + drs on straights and still couldnt pass him…
+Jan Nachname that’s why he’s called the “Torpedo” LoL.
But Torpedo could destroy Max which make Gasly a far better choice.
Honda is the kind of girl that went out with a friend of yours, but your friend called her crazy. Then you get to know her and you find out it was your friend who was crazy all along.
No honduh keep blowing up left and right

And she still wants to f..k your friend.
after he changing his boyfriend from Mclaren to Redbull.
4:32 a look that says “But I’m still getting the 2020 seat, right?”
Did u guys notice that there were no penalities in this race. Not even any cars under investigation and all. I can’t remember the last time that happened……
Fitting tribute to Charlie whiting
True tribute to Charlie Whiting
Well its normal when absolutely nothing happens

4:45 Bottas Wins Australian GP,
Ocon to Toto, I’m still getting a drive though? Toto… Toto?
4:35
+How is my Smile? Face of a lost soul
Its odd that Ocon has basically taken Nikki Laudas spot next to Toto lol. I think Ocon is just following the camera man around lol. Even on instagram he’s front and center in the team photo lol
3:03 imagine the drivers view of that car driving by seeing a formula 1 car less than 50 feet away from your car.
Verstappen!thank you for finishing third for Honda .
We will get a lot of wins this year with the Japanese/Dutch collaboration.
Ocon: I’m ready for a Mercedes seat.
Bottas: Hold my porridge.
