Back to the part of F1 I prefer, the racing.
First qualifying of the season in Bahrain and more of the same.
Max in Red Bull on pole with Charles a bit behind in second in his Ferrari.
I guess we already know that Max will win, and I am guessing that Checco will use the old Honda powertrain, RBPT, to move up to take second tomorrow.
I will watch anyway, hoping that I am wrong.

Charles had a quicker Q2 time than Max achieved in Q3. In his interview, Charles said that as he had to do his first Q3 run on scrubbed tyres, he wasn't able to accurately know how far he could push on his second run - so qualifying could have been a different result.
Lots of talk about how each driver has prioritised race pace, so curious to see how today pans out.
But qualifying definitely seems a lot closer than 2023... unless you're Alpine!
