Don't Stop Believing by Journey is playing on the Barcelona circuit's PA system. #F1

Pierre Gasly is reinstated in third in the Monaco Grand Prix results as Alpine's evidence he didn't speed in pitlane has been accepted by the stewards. Other drivers affected cannot have their penalties annulled. www.motorsport.com/f1/news/fia-... #F1

FOM/FIA have triggered Pirelli's one-year option to remain #F1's sole tyre supplier until the end of 2028, a clause included in its previous three-year extension.

Quick ADUO takeaway. Mercedes gets help despite having the best overall hybrid package, just because it's behind on the 1 thing that's taken into account (V6 power). But qualifying OEMs aren't just allowed to work on V6, but also MGU-K, battery, ERS, turbo... Odd edge case that'll cause a storm

RBPT has the best V6 ICE, while all others including Mercedes (yep, you read that right) and Ferrari will get varying degrees of additional upgrade opportunities. Revealed by Lewis Hamilton and since confirmed in the Monaco #F1 paddock www.motorsport.com/f1/news/lewi...

The 2026 #F1 cars looked pretty spectacular today trackside in Monaco, but from inside the cockpit Fernando Alonso has a different view. "This is probably the worst generation of cars I ever drove around Monaco. It's just the rules. Hybrid cars should not be racing. Simple as that."

McLaren's new motorhome has a central staircase straight out on an 80s game show, perhaps inspired by Zak Brown's appearance on Wheel of Fortune. #F1

Grand slam kinda day. #BlueJays50

This "yo-yo racing" at Indy seems like a lot of fun...

The Miami Grand Prix start time has been moved to 1pm to maximise the window to get a race in before heavier thunderstorms arrive. #F1

Sounds about right.😅 #MiamiGP

What to expect from Thursday's F1 power unit talks* *Not too much, just yet www.motorsport.com/f1/news/powe...

Some musings post-Japan after a sleep deprived (but pretty!) return journey back over the North Pole. www.autosport.com/f1/news/geor...

I'm glad these cars won't be racing at Jeddah in their current state. #F1

That's 2026's closing speeds in action. #F1

Still the best track, super clipping or not.

More power unit trouble for Lando Norris and McLaren as he will likely not make FP3 due to the team replacing his ERS pack. Norris has already lost one of his three batteries in China when he failed to make the start. #F1 #JapaneseGP

From the Suzuka paddock, the latest on McLaren's double DNS in China, which could have consequences down the road for Lando Norris. www.motorsport.com/f1/news/what... #F1

VCARB has a special Japanese Grand Prix livery and it's a banger. #F1

Really lovely story this by my colleague Roberto Chinchero and his bet with Kimi Antonelli www.motorsport.com/f1/news/kimi... #F1

Are you not entertained?

Official - F1 2026 to have 22 races as Bahrain and Saudi Arabia are off www.motorsport.com/f1/news/bahr...

As suggested in a recent Autosport column, petition for Ferrari's innovation to be referred to as rotisserie rear wing.

A fun start to 2026 that doesn't fully disguise some adjustments that will likely have to be made after China or Japan. Mercedes edging Ferrari as expected, but thankfully no Brawn GP scenario. Was expecting a little bit more from McLaren. Lindblad brilliant, Audi more than creditable with new PU.

Alonso is now DNF to conserve components. Aston is having to nurse his battery into China due to lack of spares.

We spoke to Oscar Piastri, who shouldered part of the blame but also reported an unexpected 100kW power spike...

Aston decided to make "adjustments" to Alonso's car and sent him back out.

Or, you know, F1 2026 was a masterstroke after all...

The race might not turn out to be great, but I'll take 24 of those starts please.

Nico Hulkenberg relegated to a pitlane start after not making the grid under his own power. Good start this.

A shell shocked Oscar Piastri grandstand opposite the McLaren garage after his warm-up lap crash. Feel sorry for these people.

Here's a sneak peek of some of the new graphics F1TV has developed to try and explain the new regulations, featuring new widgets for boost, overtake and battery charge. F1 says it has also doubled down on drone coverage, working with the FIA and local authorities to feature drones at every race

Some thoughts on how McLaren is now discovering where and how works team Mercedes is making the difference, and what that means for the 2026 arms race. www.motorsport.com/f1/news/mcla...

There are two drivers who like these new cars. I'm sure you can work it out.

Honestly, pretty impressive to see the relatively limited spread across the field. Bodes well.

Good effort, and good lap by Kimi.

Not quite a full rebuild for Antonelli's car, team says it's still hoping to get him out in Q1 and at least scrape through. Chassis and power unit okay. Looks like car got unsettled over a nasty bump, partly due to the huge torque of these cars.

That thump you just heard was the sound of Mercedes' sandbags coming off. #F1

I have been told the removal of Melbourne's fourth SM mode has now been reverted for FP3. The track will stay as it is ahead of further analysis. Certain teams very unhappy about the unilateral call from the FIA. #F1

Story from Adrian Newey's frank explainer on Aston Martin's inability to complete more than a short Australian GP stint www.motorsport.com/f1/news/asto... #F1

Adrian Newey says Aston Martin's Honda engine vibrations are so severe that they are transmitted onto the steering wheel via the chassis. Alonso and Stroll feel they are limited to just 25 and 15 laps respectively before risking nerve damage in their hands.... #F1 #AusGP

A big audience for Adrian Newey and Honda this morning...
