F1 2026’s First Day Was Weirdly Revealing

It may only be Friday, but THIS Friday is the most important of F1 2026.

When it comes to Formula 1's introduction to the 2026 regulations, it was not as shaky as it could've been. CERTAINLY not as much as it was in 2014. Whilst reliability did have wobbles, the car sounded pretty much the same as before...and the sound of the pecking order seems to point towards a very close battle for the top spot in this weekend's Australian Grand Prix!

Whilst Ferrari maintained its place as one of the leading teams, Mercedes and McLaren dropped some of their sandbags and laid down their pace; McLaren's Oscar Piastri ESPECIALLY drawing attention. Max Verstappen and Red Bull? Not bad at all...with hopeful signs their second seat curse might be easing....and their new charge Arvid Lindblad making a very big impression.

Who else exceeding expectations? As well as matching or falling short of?
