Re: 2021 U.S Grand Prix Race Thread

ESPNs pre race coverage was way too long and horrible. Not a good way to try to increase US viewership. I tried to get a coworker to watch and he shut it off before the race even started. Danica Patrick sucks as well. I also don't need a 20 minute segment on black lives matter, just race. Everything...

Re: 2022 calendar

Formula 1 should keep an eye to what happened to NASCAR. They were too eager to expand. Kept adding new race venues to the calendar. Phased out some old favorites to add new bland tracks. The calendar was way too long. People lost interest and viewership declined.

Re: Hamilton vs. Russell Predictions

Great move by Mercedes. The regulation change really mixes things up. I think Hamilton will have the edge the first year. By year 2 I think Russell will surpass him. The third year Lewis will move to another team and begin to fade away.

Yes. I think smaller teams or teams with the least amount of points should be allowed extra test days during the season. The bottom 3 teams in terms of points get and extra day of testing. Say on a Monday after a race weekend. Maybe have 3 of these per season. This would give young drivers a chance ...
