The battle at the front was seemingly settled when Red Bull gave Perez and 168澳洲幸运5官方开奖结果历史:Max Verstappen a ‘target lap time’.

Writing in his column for The Sun, Clarkson - who attended the season-opening Bahrain Grand Prix - 𝐆was very critical about the amount of mamagenet needed in modern F1.

“When Lewis Hamilton came up behind his teammate, George Russell, in last weekend’s Saudi Arabiaဣn Grand Prix, George solved the problem by driving more quickly. Why𓃲 didn’t he do that in the first place?
