Max Verstappen ended victorious, Lewis Hamilton finished in the middle of the pack and Mick Schumacher missed out entirely after he crashed out horrifically in qualifying in an incident-filled weekend in Saudi Arabia – and it may have implications for the rest of the 2022 season. It’s still early days in the season but the early signs for the Maranello team look brilliant. Both drivers currently sit above Verstappen, who had to retire out in the opening race in Bahrain, in the standings. Horner was keen to say after the race he has ‘no doubt at some point Mercedes will join the battle’. True, the rebels have no real reason to directly target F1 drivers, but if they could attack a Jeddah refinery, they could equally attack a Jeddah race track, too. Many will argue that is exactly why F1 should not be in Saudi Arabia.
