old news probably: Gunther out & Ticktum in at Arden.
That's all I can think of.

interested to see how ticktum does this weekend, though i'm not sure if he's done any testing (private or otherwise) in anything similar to prepare during the season?

Also struggling was F2 debutant Dan Ticktum, who replaces Maximilian Gunther at Arden this weekend off the back of a second Macau Grand Prix win last week. He propped up the order, 2.5s off Russell’s fastest time.

Off to a bad start!

Well, we all know Dan is quick so this ridiculous time gap illustrates how absurd this series has become.

I heard that Niko Kari basically observed that the tyres are the deciding issue in F2 (so in a way good prep for F1) but I think it is far far more important for real talent to be able to shine through unimpeded on the way to F1.

Tyre management and other percentage/strategy nonsense can be learnt in simulators and free practice sessions when they get to F1.

Oh no, i've ranted again!

That startline shunt was huge!

Albon stalling handed the title to Russell before any competitive driving even started.

Ticktum gave a good account of himself I thought?

The tyre deg stuff is ruining the racing though imo.

Knowing that Arden is not a top team in Formula 2, Dan's result is quite acceptable.

Very true. Lando Norris was never a title contender ...
