MUST READ

The Scuderia's uncertainty over new F1 rules have been made clear, with Sergio Marchionne threatening to pull his team out of the sport if he is unimpressed.

While Hamilton stopped short of suggesting similar, he admits that Liberty's announcement could impact upon his future, with a new Mercedes deal yet to be signed.

The immediate challenge for Hamilton is this weekend's Bahrain Grand Prix. Get your eyes around our race preview here.

Sebastian Vettel was victorious in Sakhir last year, so same again in 2018? He's not so sure.

Scuderia stable-mate Kimi Raikkonen was on press-conference duty on Thursday.

As you'd expect, that ended in a little hilarity, and not much by the way of answers...

Fernando Alonso was also present and, after securing fifth place in Melbourne, he thinks McLaren are already in good enough shape to snatch podium finishes in the coming races.

Monaco wouldn't be Monaco without an extra layer of glitz and glamour. Could that come with the retention fo grid girls this year?
