30 minutes away from the start of the Formula One season in Bahrain.

Anyone else watching this one live, or have any interest in the pinnacle of motorsport?

Interested, but more interested in my sleep

would like to watch but no longer free to air.

Give me a Norton or Ducati, now that's a symphony I can listen too.

Well, the opening Bahrain race for the season, was not worth watching twice……. (Maybe sleep would have been a better option).

Hoping it’s not another repeat of season 2023. Never good when there’s zero battles for the win at the pointy end of the field……

F1 has a history of having spread-out results. Here's a sample from 1957; only two cars finished on the lead lap. And that was pretty normal back then and for many years. The competitiveness in the mid-field is absolutely amazing these days, especially in qualifying.

Watch F2 and F3 if you want to see competitiveness 
This season in 6 races, 17 drivers on the podium.
Only driver with multiple podiums is Antonelli in F2 with 0, 1, 3, 8.
