Stoffel Vandoorne is a revelation. Bet he replaces Button or Alonso at the end of the season. I'm hoping he gets a chance to race again in China so they can see more of his racecraft on display. China in two weeks should be fun. I'm hoping the weather will have some sort of influence there.
As per Ferrari helping Haas. . . the only direct proof I see of that is the "mia colpa" of the turbo performance in Jerez. Past that, I see a very symbiotic relationship between Ferrari having four data sets on the track, and a business partner who knows what to do with data sets (especially in regards to tire degradation).
Kimi drove a car. He liked it, but would have liked it more had he won. I was surprised at how verbose he was.
*No sooner do I write that, but checking Wackypedia, he's been a McLaren driver for a number of years now. Chances are good if there were a snipe, it'd involve agents and genuine old-fashioned F1 big money weasaling.

I think if McLaren won't give him a race seat next season they may release him to go where he can find an opportunity. Just as they did with Kevin Magnussen. The team needs a good combo of young and experienced drivers. Button is untouchable when the car is to his liking but Vandoorne almost seemed Alonso-ish with how he scrapped for points. Me thinks it will most likely be a farewell to JB at the end of the season. I've been a fan of him from the early Honda years and I'd like to see him win again with a Honda. But that's probably a 'dream'
That said I also enjoyed watching Pascal Wehrlein battling at the rear in his manor. I think he has good racecraft seeing how he was last years DTM champion. Mercedes is probably keeping him in the mix as a future works team driver.
Amazing how Haas is in a strong 5th position after 2 races. Hoping they are able to keep performing all season long. Would like to see Alex Rossi race for them at some point.
Lewis is still a contender. He hasn't finished first but he has maximized his points in the face of bad luck. The wins will follow. Nico hopefully is as cheery and steely in his performance when the tide of luck goes against him.
Also hoping Ferrari resolves it's reliability issues and pushes Mercedes to the brink.
