Thanks Chode, mon ami.

Is that F1-TV ($80/year)?

If you recommend it, I'll surely consider it.

Just two things.

Weather forecast, for qualifying and the race.

Will Mercedes screw up qualifying and make my day?

Maybe one more. No visible signs of PC, Politics, US bashing, Gay gag, etc, etc. You drive and leave all that other stuff where it belongs.

Thanks for the new thread!


“...got the F1 channel awhile back...”


Sounds great but we only have 5 MB download here (on a waiting list for 25) and F1 states a minimum of 7 MB is needed.

YOU have some fun this weekend!

I wonder what lap Hamilton will wreck Verstappen?

Should we open a betting pool?

Awesome. I was watching the Corvette at Lemans at night on YT it was pretty cool at least for 10 mins or so.

Could be Senna v. Prost 2.0

We’ll see.

Red Bull needs to have Perez do a Rinus VeeKay and take out both Hammy and Bottas in one corner.

Well that has to have been 5+ hours of the most intense non-racing I’ve ever recorded !!! Even Mama was underwhelmed !

They should have made the Drivers count rain drops just to see who can count the highest.

I feel bad for all of the Fans paying the F-1 prices to stand in the rain and that’s from someone who waited out Raintona and JPM torching a Jet Drier and pavement in turn 3.

How’s the F-1 channel ?
