Way more eco friendly than a non-permanent marina for 3 days wasting lots of water.

Eco friendliness already went out the window when they signed with the title sponsor for this race.

Whataboutism and also wrong. crypto.com doesn't mine crypto.

Guess who’s not happy 😆

“They’re producing Formula One: American Style,” says Ecclestone, who worries that Liberty’s changes will spoil F1’s cachet. “It may well be that it’s good, because so many stupid things come out of America and everyone’s happy, but it wasn’t the way I ran things.”

But it wasn’t the way I ran things.”

The sooner he realises that this is a good thing the better.

I know, there were 3 GPs in America in 1982. One of them was entirely in a parking lot.

And of course, the Dallas GP in 1984 which featured a crumbling track surface along a large city park as well as parking lots.

At least most of Detroit and Phoenix were city streets.

He probably cares more about the money he has still locked up in F1 than he cares about F1 itself.

Wow 😵

Continuing in the basketball vein, Gasly went one better

why does that look like a carboard cutout

 

[Jimlaad43]

What is it with Liberty tracks having wiggly DRS zones? Hanoi, Jeddah and now Miami. Plus you could technically say Imola too. Didn't we learn from Valencia that straights with multiple bends in them just make racing tougher and it worse to watch on TV?
Turns 11-16 look like they're going to spread the field out really quick, but the rest of the track looks awesome! Let's hope our fears are not realised.

Doing deals with Putin is far better, obviously.

It’s a bummer the Heat are in Philly this weekend. I’d love to see Butler and Lando reunited on another Hot Lap.

 

[TypeRDC5]

This grand prix is extremely hyped up!
Not a fan of the fake water, superbowl style build up so far but if the racing on track is good I won't care about any of that.

Hoping for a new classic in miami hopefully 🤞

"Whenever" is about right for Florida.

It can alternate between heavy rain and sunshine 4 times in a day from March to October.

And it could be raining at Turns 4, 5, and 6 and nowhere else.

Sounds like miami is the Spa of the US.

It happens here in Alabama too. It could only be raining in an area a few hundred yards wide. Mostly during June, July, August and early September here though. Down there it's year round.

Sounds ideal for an f1 race in that case!

First helicopter shot of the track. Looks good.

 

[Blitz24]

Not even 5 minutes in and Ocon nearly took out another Mercedes on pit road.

 

[Dennisch]

Anyone else issues with the sound in the F1 TV app? Seems to be only on the English sound channel.

Edit.

I just found out that the F1 Live commentators are different from the International commentators. Herpiediddlyderp. @PaMu1337

Yes. Awful.

 

[Samus]

Looks like a race at the minute, everyone out there.

 

[Dennisch]

Yes. Awful.

Move to the f1 live feed, in the app. That is much better.

Edit.

It's in the menu where you can also pick the tracker and data.

SkyGo (literally the worst program to ever grace a PC) seems to have audio around 5 seconds behind the pictures. It's abysmal. Even in the ad breaks...

I have to say my only issues with the F1 app so far is that it doesn't save my login for some odd reason and just now with the sound issues on the English channel. No problems on the live feed, and the picture seems to be better for some odd reason.

Whoa...I wouldn't go that far!

 

[Jimlaad43]

Bottas in the wall. Fast left in the first sector.

Agreed. That's a huge insult to Spa.

 

[Dennisch]

So far, not too bad.

Focus will definitely will be a key factor here.
