Lights Out: Mercedes & Hamilton starting to panic?

Our first back-to-back races of the season arrive with Mercedes firmly on the back foot after losing out in Australia and Bahrain. Can Sebastian Vettel and Ferrari keep the pressure on Lewis Hamilton in Shanghai? It's lights out for Tuesday morning!

MUST READ

It wouldn't be a race reaction without Rob Watts dishing out his five star performers! Vettel? Check. Hamilton? Check. Marcus Ericsson?! You betcha!

Meanwhile there is a burning question in the mind of Matt Scott.

He asks, just what exactly is the point in Kimi Raikkonen anymore?

Valtteri Bottas ought to have won in Bahrain after Mercedes put him on a superior one-stop strategy, but Vettel held on.

The Silver Arrows had a "90 per cent" chance of winning according to Toto Wolff, so the Flying Finn might be in trouble!

More problems for Mercedes. Hamilton isn't happy with the communication problems he's having with his team.

The champion also wasn't best pleased with Max Verstappen, calling the Red Bull man a "dickhead" after their tangle on the second lap.

Verstappen isn't getting as much out his Red bull as more experienced drivers would, suggests Hamilton.

Good news from Sakhir, the Ferrari mechanic run over by Raikkonen, Francesco Cigarini, is on the mend after surgery to fix a broken leg. We wish him good health!
