Just a few weeks ago Jeremy Clarkson was giddy with excitement at the start of a new Formula 1 season – but it seems that enthusiasm has already dissipated.
He declared on the grid prior to the Bahrain Grand Prix : "I adore Formula 1. It was infuriating for years and years and now it's back because they can follow one another and the aerodynamics are so much better."
Clarkson also predicted that Max Verstappen would win the race and was duly proven right. Not only did Red Bull finish first and second in the season-opener, but they repeated the trick two weeks later in Saudi Arabia with Sergio Perez taking the chequered flag.
