Never has a season opener completely crushed any hype or excitement for the entire season. This is a disaster. The last time the sport has looked this pathetic was during the US GP when only three teams ran.
There is nothing even remotely exciting about this. Just give Lewis the title now. How many races in before he takes a selfie during a race because he has nothing else to do?

Official f1gaf mascot.
Knowing Williams' strategy, they'll probably advise him to do the opposite.
I'm not sure who's doing the commentary for Euro and USA but here in Australia our free to air tv station chanel 10 they've got Mark Webber on a panel hosting.
He's not the best host and messes up a few introductions plus he gets tongue tired a lot, BUT he makes up for it with his insider knowledge and taking the piss (has a laugh) at the other drivers, it's quite refreshing.
The tv producers can cut to a image of a garage and he can tell you instantly who's who and what they're doing.
In Practice 3 a driver was a bit slow and Mark says " This driver is well known for keeping an eye on his wallet and the reason for his slow performance today i'd say is his wallet has slipped out of his pocket and become lodged under the accelerator."

I think he's just pondering the state of F1.
Who can blame him? He's watching the same race we are.
Yeah, thought I'd try being more active again today. Good to share the love.

I throw my full support behind Ricciardo, Button, and the Kitten Car.

If Nasr finishs at least in 6th he will be the best Brazilian debutant ever.

Ferrari has some of the best pit stops in a season, whatever.
They botch them in one race, OMG INCOMPETENT ASSHOLES.
Also, Formula 1 is dead, because a race is boring, due to some DNFs.
Long live Bernie.

Ric's given up on Nasr??!
I'm surprised Ricciardo's car has lasted this long!
Looks like it. Just nursing that POS engine homeRic's given up on Nasr??!
Poor Max on BBC5 sounds heartbroken

Its about the same as Williams I would argue, which is very good.
If Bottas didnt get his ass torn and Kimi didnt get a shit stop so we had Williams and Ferrari on pace, we'd have something to watch.
That's wonderful. Maybe Kimi can overcome the pit crew and get some points next race!

Sauber seems to have a better car than Red Bull at this moment.

I liked his crack about Ricciardo's love handles. :3
Are we not allowed to criticise it? It's clearly more than 'due to some DNFs'. I love this sport just as much as you, that doesn't mean I can't see that it's on a downward slope.
I'm going to come back and read these reactions at the end of the season, and it's going to be for one of two reasons..
Either it turns out great and I can look back and laugh, or this is the beginning of the end and I can relive the horror.
C'mon dystopian F1 future. Might just get rid of Bernie..

who am I kidding?
Nah, F1 is dead because it is run by a greedy little dwarf, it has been slowly dying for years. My interest this season is the lowest it has been since I learned of the existence of the sport, which was in 1986 or so, just after they started having races in Adelaide.
Stupid rules, stupid media management, stupidity in almost all areas.
The race itself is a bit boring but there have been much worse openers, I am just pessimistic for the sport overall.

Alonso is laughing his ass off watching the race I bet.

Come on Button, hang in there!
He shouldn't be laughing at the sport he wants to compete in one day.
You mean crying watching his only chance of points for the season go by?
