Normally I’d agree but the first 2 races have been a snorefest. Literally the highlights of the last race are Norris jumping at the start, Stroll putting it into a wall and Magnussen collecting penalties. The final standings were largely the same order as the start of the race. The only exceptions are Perez overtaking Leclerc (which surprised nobody), Piastri overtaking Alonso (which happened at the start and nobody remembers) and Hamilton, Norris and Hulkenberg gambling on not pitting when everyone else pitted. That’s 90% of the race summed up in 3 sentences.
I didn’t mind last season because I didn’t care if Verstappen won everything because I was more invested in what was happening with the rest of points. This year Verstappen still wins everything but now we don’t even get any real fights down the line either. I think it’s fair to say it’s been a really boring start to the season.
