F1 2023 season

Monaco part 2 coming up.

Hope it surprises me rather than being the team America wankfest production I'm expecting

Think the track will be a cross between Saudi and Austria with the long straights. It’s cold in Vegas on evenings at the moment so will be an issue warming the tyres up, will be challenging going into the unknown and will be interesting to see how powerful DRS will be for passing.

That's the attraction to me. It's going to be a great unknown track wise. In some ways having everything wrapped up means it can be tested with nothing on the line championship wise.

Only race Red Bull have lost this year has been on a bumpy Singapore street circuit. Could this place be something similar and what will the cold temps do.

Says it all about where F1's priorities are right now that the whole Las Vegas weekend has been structured around the American TV audience at the expense of the traditional European one.

What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas ;)

Manhole covers, who would have thought it on a street circuit.

If they can’t fix the problem and have to cancel the whole thing what a disaster for the F1 management.

Not like regular fans couldn't spot the potential issues. How has this been allowed to happen???

They could stick a cone over each one, that would be fun.

Carlos Sainz gets a grid penalty for the damage that a lose man hole cover has done to his car. Apparently the stewards spent over three hours going through the rule book to avoid dishing out a sanction that clearly isn’t his fault.

How can they follow that part of the rule book to the letter of the law but Michael Massi can make up the rules of a safety car in Abu Dhabi on the fly?

This seems like a ridiculous decision to me!
