    Any Formula 1 fans out there?

    The new season is about to start and maybe this is Ferrari's year? It would be great to see cars with the Genesys logo on be championship winners!

    Honestly, I don't know what to think.
     
    Formula 1 used to be seen as about power, engine, speed, etc.
     
    It's undergoing a big change; now the cars need to be hybrid (50% electric / 50% combustion). I'm not a fan of electric cars, maybe my vision is being clouded by that, but I'll wait and see what happens haha.
     
    Speaking of Ferrari, we have Lewis Hamilton, one of the favorites for the award, BUT, I think Mercedes is stronger with Kimi Antonelli.

    After watching the grand prix of this weekend in Australia, the race was more interesting than before.  The way that the drivers are using the new technology (50/50) is new and will require them to evaluate when and how to use the energy stored in the battery.  Definitively more interesting.

    Looking forward for the next one in China.

    The first 10 laps were crazy and very unpredictable. I imagine as the season goes on the drivers & teams will learn a lot more about how to use the battery in different situations and things will eventually calm down but for now it looks exciting!

    Sadly it seems to be going very much down the technical side - and ways to exploit interpretations of the rules.   Each year they change t to restrict what can be done - and the manufacturers then come up with new ways!

    No longer the full on pure driver skill and nerves.....

    Formula 1 has always been a team sport and the team building the best car is part of that. Of course the cars are now so advanced it's sometimes difficult to see the difference the driver makes but it's still there to see if you look. The top drivers like Hamilton, Verstappen, Leclerc, Alonso etc are always showing their talent even if it is just in comparison to their teammate.

    I am really looking forward to see how the new rear wing will behave at the next grand prix in China.  It seems that Ferrari is going to use their rotating rear wing.  It may introduce some controversial discussions from the other teams.

    Yes I'm looking forward to that. I don't think it's going to be a game changer in respect to performance but every little helps!

    I love formula 1! For me Airton Sena will be always the best, but I am very happy to see Lewis Hamilton and see the Genesys Logo on Ferrari.
     
    Nowadays Lewis Hamilton is my favorite! So, we are Game On!!!

    Definitely! 🙌

    The F1 Fantasy in the official app is already going crazy with all the bets and team setups 😄
    Adding that gamification layer and competing with friends makes the whole experience even more fun and engaging.

    Really exciting to see all the innovation coming with the new regulations as well.

    Mercedes seems to be very strong so far, but it's also great to see Ferrari back in the fight - especially with Lewis already getting a podium in China 👀

    This season is looking very promising! 🏎️🔥

    After the last couple of seasons, it's been a mix of real promise and frustrating "what ifs" for Ferrari. The pace has been there at times, but consistency, strategy, and execution have held them back from a true title fight.

    As an F1 fan, though, you can't help but feel hopeful going into a new season. If they can finally put it all together, there's no reason they can't be right at the front.

    Would be incredible to see Ferrari back on the top step regularly-with the Genesys logo on a championship-winning car 🔴🏆
