DUBAI: “The fastest car always wins.”
That’s the problem with Formula 1 you see. Nothing ever happens. There’s no excitement. The fastest car always wins.
Lewis Hamilton. Max Verstappen. Valtteri Bottas.
Mercedes. Red Bull. Mercedes.
The podium finish at the season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix may have had a distinct business as usual look to it. For those that keep a causal, sometimes cynical, eye on Formula 1, here was yet more proof that the more things change the more they stay the same.
Once again, it seems, we are in for season of a valiant Red Bull challenge to the supremacy of Mercedes, with reigning champion Lewis Hamilton ultimately winning an expected, record eighth F1 title.

Will we have a Formula One Grand Prix of Canada in Montreal this year?
Will we have a Honda Indy in Toronto this year?
Both races were cancelled last year because of COVID but a year later, with vaccines going into arms, there is hope these races, can be held.
So here is the situation as of this morning.
The Grand Prix of Canada, scheduled for June 11-13 is on. The F1 team in Montreal is working as if there will be a race. However, they will know for sure sometime in the middle of April when the government says whether it will be a go or no go. Why then? Because it takes two months to set everything up. So April 10 would be the deadline.
