TIL a whole slew of things about the new F1 season and cars during the opening Australian Grand Prix
The most notable thing to me right now is the 50/50 power split. It’s dramatically changed how the cars interact in racing situations, since they can’t go full speed for consecutive straights.
I imagine they’ll adjust the split soon. It reminded me a lot of the 2022 opener where Verstappen and Lceclerc traded places on a series of laps before one of them figured out how to stay ahead
