Years ago my less than brilliant kid sister announced she was going to France to see the Grand Prix but she pronounced Prix improperly. I burst out laughing. My dad looked at me and said, “I think she is going to be disappointed.”

I’m going out on a limb here with a race prediction (sarcasm)
1. Mad Max Verstappen
2. Sergio Perez
3. Saintz or LeClerc
Sadly 1 and 2 are a certainty for the foreseeable future.
The battle for 3rd is the only excitement in F1.
