FORMULA 1 GULF AIR BAHRAIN GRAND PRIX 2024
If you only look at the winner after the fact, maybe.
I thought the midfield was exciting last year, but other than a few reliability issues which are expected in the first race, I felt like this race was much less interesting than Bahrain last year. It's only the first race so hopefully it gets more interesting.
Bahrain last year was mostly better because we had Alonso magic. And the race wasn't great I wasn't saying that either. But I'm fucking tired of comment after comment after comment after comment after comment after comment after comment after comment after comment after posts of super high effort and creativity about how "seasons over" since the first day of testing. Everybody was expecting Max on top he's just dominant. But the midfield seem very tight, most teams seem to have stepped it up. All of the good stuff from last season happened in f1.5 anyway and this year looks like it's going to be even closer and involve more drivers.
Yeah I hope you're right. There's just not a lot of data points yet and there's frankly not a lot to talk about in that race so far so I can only compare to last year, and I remember it being a much better race last year when ignoring Max. Don't worry, I'm sure the conversation will have more things to talk about as the season progresses, but you can't expect diverse conversation based on the little we've seen so far.
Copium
If my copium is not having a memeish early conclusion after 1 race.
Go watch DTS then.
