For the first time this season Sebastian Vettel did not finish on the podium, instead his Ferrari teammate Kimi Raikkonen took a record seventh Bahrain GP podium.

The Bahrain GP is often called the Bore-rain Grand Prix by fans, but the race last year was anything but boring.

Late stats as I was at Silverstone, not a bad Chinese GP, but not a great one either.

Can Ferrari do it again? Will Mercedes get back to the top? Or maybe even someone else will win the Chinese GP.

What a race that was! A bit of a shame that Will Stevens couldn’t take part in qualifying or start the race, but Roberto Merhi’s Manor finished the race! Oh and some German bloke named Vettel won?

First thing, apologies for the late stats, had internet troubles all week. ANYWAY, stats! Hopefully in Malaysia we won’t have a quarter of the field fail to start the race and almost half failing to finish.

The Australian GP was definitely… Different… 20 cars entered, 15 started, 11 finished.

F1 is back at last! And it returns with the 20th GP at the Melbourne Grand Prix Circuit and a bunch of fresh new faces, including a Toro Rosso pairing barely out of puberty.

Testing is over for another year, meaning that soon we’ll be back doing what we love, watching free practice at 1am on a Friday morning not sleeping.

Amazingly last season I got almost all of my F1 predictions right (here) so I’m probably going to get everything wrong this year!
