Judging by McLaren's starts so far, they'll have to start revving up the turbo in Australia for when the lights go off in China. #F1

The number of laps is disappointing. I was hoping cars would break down a lot more.

Will F1 fans be able to understand the racing in 2026? As F1's 2026 revolution starts, the series faces an uncomfortable question: can fans comprehend racing where the most crucial battles are invisible?

#F1 has always been complex, but this season could take that to an entirely new level thanks to active aerodynamics, and complicated power modes.
Will fans be able to properly understand the racing?

Not sure what's worse: F1 trying to make sure no one else has access to anything, or people trying to share a photo of a car from 2km away just to show they were there.
