CHAOS! Max Verstappen retires on lap 3 and the dominoes continue to fall. Be glad we stayed up late and watched the best race of 2024 so far. Carlos Sainz pulls off a post-surgery victory and Tom compares him to being the "Eli Manning to Verstappen's Tom Brady." Lots to discuss about the late Russell crash and Alonso penalty that could have been much more disastrous without the red flag - Formula 1 got lucky. The #F1 #AusGP did not disappoint as we saw that Ferrari and possibly McLaren have some fighting spirit in their cars while Sergio Perez could not get his Red Bull near the podium for a third straight time to start the season. Add in the Mercedes double DNF and Yuki scoring his first points of the season made it a great time staying awake into the wee hours of the morning.
We all hit on our 3-pointers this week. Tom = A new team scores their first points of the season (RB), John = Three or more DNF (Verstappen, Hamilton, Russell), Brady = One or more pit lane starts (Zhou).
Current Top 5 / Bottom 5 points standings are:
Tom - 39 points
John - 38 points
Brady - 38 points
