Ah, thank you for mentioning the Chinese Grand Prix, as it just so happens we have a nifty little fact file for you right here. Or you could watch the video below, really.

Christian Horner has provided us with an insight into his life with Ginger Spice by admitting he had a "brutally frustrating" weekend in Bahrain. Course not! He is referring to Daniel Ricciardo and Max Verstappen both going for an early bath.

Sergey Sirotkin, meanwhile, has risked the wrath of his team behind the scenes by suggesting that Williams, himself included, must have looked like "idiots" in Bahrain over the weekend. A bit harsh, probably.

Fernando Alonso has provided fans with an insight into the kind of afternoon TV he is into by suggesting that McLaren were "saved by the bell" on Sunday as he and Stoffel Vandoorne earned a points finish. Wonder if he likes Zack or Slater best?

David Coulthard has provided his two cents on who was to blame for Verstappen smashing into Hamilton on Sunday. Strangely, he thinks it is Verstappen, who smashed into Hamilton on Sunday.
