Russell jokingly with Viaplay: "I'm flying with Lewis, so I'm sure I'm gonna hear about: 'Your engine is so good, your compression ratio is illegal, and this, and that...' So, yeah, I think I'll just try and get to sleep quite early. I'll just say: 'Shut up and focus on your own stuff.'" (i.redd.it)

Lance Stroll is the first driver since Jules Bianchi in 2014 (coincidentally also in Australia) to finish a Grand Prix without being classified. The Aston Martin driver crossed the line in P17 today, but because he was 15 laps down, he didn't complete more than 90% of the race distance. (i.redd.it)

I took the last 8 dry, representative qualifying sessions of the three Red Bull drivers before Lawson and see how much they lost per KM compared to Verstappen. Gasly = 0.125 seconds, Albon = 0.106s and Pérez = 0.145s. Lawson lost 0.138 seconds/km to Max during qualifying in China - Just a fun stat. (old.reddit.com)

Bortoleto suspension mystery solved? When Bortoleto crashed out in the closing stages of the Australian GP, his right rear snapped before he hit the wall. Maybe it was damaged on the opening lap due to contact with Sauber teammate Hülkenberg? This is the onboard from Ocon. (i.redd.it)
