Sky Sports F1 commentator David Croft predicts that Max Verstappen, Sergio Pérez and Fernando Alonso will also share the podium in Melbourne. The British are a bit cynical Speed cafe and explained in his prediction that it was probably “a bit far-fetched”.
It seems that England is quite satisfied with the domination of Red Bull Racing. Where in the past Mercedes’ dominance meant that the team had done its homework well and the competition had to step up, Red Bull Racing’s dominance appears to only be causing irritation in Great Britain.
Red Bull travels to Australia as favourites
Asked if he could predict the outcome of the Melbourne race, Croft replied: “I have a theory for this weekend. It may be a bit far-fetched, but we will see Verstappen, Pérez and Alonso on the podium in some form at the end of the race.” The trio also shared the podium in the first two races of the year and nothing seems to suggest it will be any different in Australia. “And I honestly don’t know where I got that,” Croft commented sarcastically at the end of his prediction.

Red Bull is on the podium if nothing crazy happens
Aston Martin looks to be the second team behind Red Bull Racing and if nothing crazy happens, Croft expects the Austrian team’s two title challengers to decide who wins the race. “I think we’ll get Verstappen and Pérez on the podium unless there’s an accident, they don’t meet on purpose or they can’t be counted on,” said Croft.
