    Bahrain Grand Prix 2023
    Mar 7 2023
    Bahrain Grand Prix Show Notes, March 5


    WOW! What a start to the 2023 season of Formula 1! There was so much to check out this weekend. From Stroll struggling to get out of his car to Aston Martin thriving in the race, all eyes were either on green or green with envy! The only thing noteworthy about Mercedes was how poorly they did. The pain was also evident for Mclaren and Ferrari. Maybe no one was suffering as much as Esteban Ocon, though! Who was your Driver of the Day?

    Have a listen wherever you get your podcasts or watch our goofy faces react to race weekend on YouTube.
