Re: The F1 Thread
So there's talk of putting an Indy Car style screen on F1 cars from 2021
Also, a typhoon is heading for Japan this weekend and could potentially disrupt qually.

Looks like Typhoon Haggis is going to affect most sporting events this weekend in Japan.
Desperate for the Japan vs Scotland game to go ahead though!

Re: The F1 Thread
I presume typhoon season hits Japan at the same time every year, seems strange to schedule the Rugby World Cup during it.
Oh, and at least Scotland can blame the weather if they're knocked out rather than when they inevitably lose to Japan (if they play)

Decent race that, mix of strategies and plenty of action

Re: The F1 Thread
6 straight Drivers/Constructors titles in a row for Mercedes. It's farcical.

Re: The F1 Thread
Fair play to Merc for developing a hell of a package, but the farce isn’t their success, it’s that a team as big as Ferrari (and Red Bull to a lesser extent) haven’t been able to pull their finger out their ass. It’s up to the others to catch Merc (which it looks like Ferrari may be doing) rather than for Merc to wait for them.

Re: The F1 Thread
The farce is that Merc got a head start on development due to their development team helping the FIA come up with the specification concept when the hybrid era started, putting them at a huge advantage, exacerbated by the stupid token system preventing others from catching up.Bodacious Benny wrote: ↑Mon Oct 14, 2019 6:41 pmFair play to Merc for developing a hell of a package, but the farce isn’t their success, it’s that a team as big as Ferrari (and Red Bull to a lesser extent) haven’t been able to pull their finger out their ass.

Re: The F1 Thread
Miami may have a deal set to hold a race in 2021.
So far the only details of the track is using the Dolphins stadium as part of the circuit. It does sound like a Vegas car park GP to be fair.

Yeah it’s cool that they do the podium bit in front of that section.

Re: The F1 Thread
Lots of complaints about how bumpy the circuit is in Austin during first practice.
Re: The F1 Thread
Any comments on the track temperature?
I was at the track yesterday and it was FREEZING. I thought Texas was supposed to be hot...

Re: The F1 Thread
Usually you'd expect temps of about 20-23 degrees this time of year in Austin.
Re: The F1 Thread
It's 6 right now . I wasn't prepared for this, we're going coat shopping before the track this morning.overseasTOON wrote: ↑Sat Nov 02, 2019 2:16 pmUsually you'd expect temps of about 20-23 degrees this time of year in Austin.

This race isn’t particularly interesting.
