2020 Formula 1 Season Paddock

Vettel, Ricciardo and Landó all with Mercedes PU should be interesting for next year

 

Last race, seems like a lazy Sunday drive so far.

 

Pretty sad when the most exciting thing about the weekend is seeing a 15 year old car take too the track for a few laps. Well always next year.

I feel lucky I got to hear that sound in person. Just unforgettable.

 

This is my favorite video that I show to people who don't understand the speed of these cars and to me this is probably the best camera angle that shows the speed and handling capabilities of F1 cars. I wish the FIA would incorporate camera angles like this. Another turn up the volume vid.

Boring

 

Perez set to be confirmed at Red Bull next week , Albon to be retained as test and reserve driver

 

What are prices like these days? I went down there the first 2 years and I think I only paid $350-400/seat for all 3 days in the stands between turns 9 and 10

 

That will be an interesting driver pairing.

 

The COTA ticket site only has a deposit price listed. I remember Indy grass hill general admission at $150 but the deposit at COTA is $150. Don't know if there is a race day general admission at COTA.

 

Hey i'm just glad to see Bottas stay ahead of Hamilton, lol. Low bar to set these days.

On another note, i'm going to start working the wife to get a trip in the works to Austin next October!

 

Both are aggressive drivers so lets hope they can keep it clean. I imagine at least 1 double DNF by collision between the two.

 

Both were prone to that type of thing at one time, especially bash-em-out-of-the-way-then-complain Fishlips, but not anymore. I'm honestly surprised at Verstappen's (relative level of) maturity.

 

I totally agree I think it kind of changed when Hamilton and a few others during a press conference said that they always give Max extra room and treat him differently because of his aggressive driving style... Maybe he took it to heart?

 

Don't forget he usually doesn't much competition except for the Mercs. If Perez can keep up the pace it could force Max into defensive mode.

 

Alonso sets time in Abu Dhabi test faster than both Renault drivers managed in qualifying

Anyone know when the new season of Formula 1: Drive to Survive will come out?
