The much talked incident of the 2018 Australian GP was the chaos that happend at Haas F1 team. Which led to a Virtual Safety Car and gave Sebastian Vettel of Ferrari the lead.
But everyone also remembers what happened before the chaos.
The race started and down into Turn 1, Kevin Magnussen made a move on Max Verstappen of Red Bull and then surprisingly, the Dutchman struggled to overtake K-Mag and spun.

This was surprising because Max does not crack under pressure quite often and that too behind a Haas.
Then the home hero: Daniel Ricciardo struggled to get past the Haas boys.
But then chaos happened in the pit lane and both the Haas cars retired.
This broke the hearts of many Haas F1 fans.
Very sad but if Haas will show this kind of quality, then they might replace Red Bull and may even give Mercedes and Ferrari a tough time because they might not be very good in Qualifying, but they are absolutely ferocious in the Race trim.
Red Bull beware.

Love that Haas can compete now. I was reading the latest issue of TG magazine and it's funny that my pre-season F1 predictions were way more accurate then Eddie Jordan's 🙊
Ill tell you this, that will be the last time they will ever screw up a six pin nut. If nothing else they will be slathered with a mixture of neverseize and stp lube for the next race if they aren't coated with a special hard ano coating.
Yeeaaahhhhh. A bit too technical. But right
I do understand this thing. That is why I will give you a bit more analysis after the Hungarian GP. We cannot say anything yet about any team. As it is a long way to go with 20 races and 2 power units left.
For future reference, it is spelled Haas not Hass.
Thanks Mark.
