Logan Sargent had a fantastic start and is running a good race so far. Could both Williams cars compete for points today?

Did he have a bad pit stop or something? Seemed to be running right with albon but now is like 6 seconds behind

I was hoping given the practice and qualifying that hulkenberg would be having a better race.

He took decent contact the first lap. Wonder how much damage it did.

Am I the only one who thinks zak brown seems like a giant ****** and am happy to see mclaren suck today?

Seriously. 11+ seconds on last pit stop.

I think the only reason to not retire both McLarens at this point is just to placate Lando.

Starting this narrative now. Lando to replace Checo at Red Bull or Sainz at Ferrari for 2024.

Astin Martin making all the right calls so far. And those cars are really working well.

Stewards trying to force him to. Up to a 15 second penalty!

Looks like Hamilton/Alonso may be the only interesting story of the day.

Watching the drivers catch a ride back to the pits on a little scooter will always be funny to me.

DTS may have their first story of the year with Alonso and Aston Martin. Currently tops in FP3.
Episode 1 likely.

Did Albon hold on to the point?
Apparently

Observations from today:

I loved the lie detector with Hamilton. They need to do that with a different driver each week.

MClaren looks terrible. I mean...what a mess.

I hoped Haas would take a step forward. Looks the same.

Don't know what to think about Ferrari. They looked better than all but Red Bull for 80% of the race.

Happy for Sargent..he did well. Glad to see Williams halfway up the board instead of last, and grab a point.

Freaking Alonso! That race by him was a blast to watch. I hope we get a lot more of that from him this year. 'Yes! Bye Bye'

I wonder how much longer that Haas and Gunter have in F1. I could see Andretti buying out Gene

Absolute masterclass from Ocon today. He was my vote for driver of the day.

Has to hurt merc a little bit to see Aston Martin take their same engine and build a better car around it

I still think Ferrari is still slightly above Aston Martin despite the results today. Lec and Sainz were pretty firmly in the Top 4 until Lec car failure.

However, Aston Martin has at least pulled even with Mercedes in overall stature. Stroll did an excellent job of holding off Russell, so that says a lot.

One thing I noticed today was the sheer amount of experience in the Top 10. Everyone was at least 5 years into their career.

I wish Hulk could have had a better weekend as well. He looked like the comeback story of the weekend early in Quali yesterday. Hope he continues to improve this season.

Agree about Ferrari. Their start was like RB last year. Good run until the end.

Pretty boring race unless you're an Alonso fan. Most of the race had 1+ second intervals between each car (Alonso excluded). I'm left wondering if the teams found a way to dirty up the air for following cars like they did in 2021.

I really think that 2 to 3 races should be a reverse order on the last race run. I do enjoy the races when the top teams have to start at the back of the grid due to engine penalties. They will lose a lot of US fans if it is the same finish basically every week

Has anyone seen any viewership numbers for the race yesterday? Or just the weekend overall? Every FP, Qualifying, and the Race was either on ESPN2 or ESPN.

I think they should do it for a sprint race. Would be interesting
