Formula 1 Austrian Grand Prix

[bossbowman]

You simply cannot compare the driving ability needed in F1 vs nc. About the only racing that is more exciting happens on 2 wheels w/ Moto GP & Isle de man tt. It's a shame, but the cream of the crop racing is across the pond & it makes nascar boring.

Eh I would put Indycar on an oval second, IOM TT is definitely tops, those guys are nuts, sprint car guys on dirt have a place in their too... Nascar these days, meh too tame.

Why do they weigh the drivers after the race? Noticed Hamilton and Verstappen stood on a scale before taking their gear off at podium. Didn’t notice if Bottas did or not.

I believe they weigh themselves before and after races to see how much weight they lost due to sweating and know how much to replenish them with.

Man Ferrari looked a mess this morning. I think y’all may have gotten me hooked on this. Second time watching a race and I’m riveted.

Such a terrible move. Sad thing is Ferrari made a bunch of changes to the cars they were wanting to test and didn’t even get a lap out of em

Well the INEOS sponsored cars were first and second I see. Maybe they will give us tickets or something since I work there. Not holding my breath.

Just watched the Hungarian Grand Prix. Seems like everyone else is just racing for second place.

Yeah...Hamlin is a beast & mercedes has got his car on steroids or something.

Enjoyed watching the tire strategy & was a pretty clean & uneventful race.

[Rcole1310]

Yep. Never knew there was a tire strategy. Totally fascinated by these races. Must be a hoot to be at one of these races. Added attending one of these races to the to-do list. Actually I’ve never been to any car race other then illegal back road drag races when I lived in Mississippi.

I just got this email this morning concerning our suite tickets! Well, that leaves us 0-3 for races this year.......but it does save me about $30K overall for something else the girls might want.

Your company owner is looking like a genius sir. I could see the back wall in the garage also had INEOS on it. Tell him congrats on his investment! The race in Hungary was a masterclass! Next two weeks in Silverstone are going to be magical and the global audience will be off the charts.
