  • McLaren’s massive upgrades finally making them genuine threats again
  • Max Verstappen’s lap one spin and Red Bull’s sudden pace improvement
  • Ferrari’s confusing weekend, late penalties, and Lewis Hamilton’s strong recovery drive
  • Why Aston Martin’s Miami performance was genuinely embarrassing
  • Haas, Williams and Alpine all heading in very different directions

Plus:

  • Guru and Fool of the Week
