  1. there’s ALWAYS someone looking the other way

    1. Not always! I think in 2006 and 2015 everybody looks in the same direction

  2. Very strong driver lineup this year.
    – Collection of World Champions worth 11 titles (Vettel, Hamilton, Alonso, Kimi, Button)
    – Drivers equally skilled as the champions (Rosberg, Ricciardo)
    – Very solid group of talented drivers (Grosjean, Perez, Hulkenberg, Bottas, Kvyat, Massa)
    – Exciting 2nd year drivers (Sainz, Verstappen)
    – Drivers yet to prove themselves (Magnussen, Palmer, Nasr, Wehrlein)
    – Seat-fillers (Ericsson, Guttierez, Haryanto)

    1. Why always take the photo in full sun? It’s hard to make out the features.

  3. riccardio and verstappen are sooooo cooooooool

  5. I’m unimpressed by the level of sunglasses this year compared to 1996.
    Trying to look cool vs actually cool.
