That was an interesting qualyfying session . Congrats to the pole winner . Let's hope for a good race tomorrow . Did RB screw up Max's fuel load ? He was on a flyer then told to box .


During the three-week break, Red Bull engineers attended a Race Management Strategy conference hosted by Ferrari…lol

Our DVR (Dish Network) didn’t record the race. Anyone else experience this? It can’t even find ESPN now. BLOODY HELL!

Wow, what a hard race for the drivers.

The long rain delay and then all the safety cars. Congrats to the winner, he for sure drove the best race of his life. When drivers like Hamilton whack the barrier, and Max way overcooks a braking point he just drove like a pro. And Ferrari managed to NOT shoot themselves in the foot.

The race started over an hour late because of the rain. My DVR recorded in just fine, but I did add 3 hours to the end of the race to be 100% sure it was going to record it all. Of course just as they are about to start interviews ESPN pulled the plug. Likely to show the high school cornhole championship games or a replay of the women's tennis match from 1991.

Good race but pretty weird how the track is so slow to dry.

I’ve been very pleased with YouTubeTV. It records everything I ask it to plus other things it thinks I want to. If a race i usually watch is on a channel I didn’t pick it still records it.

rfuerst911sc 10-02-2022 03:25 PM

Checo gets a 5 second penalty for not being close enough to the pace car . WTF over ? But gets to keep his win .

GH85Carrera 10-02-2022 03:58 PM

He had over a 6 second lead.

F1TV is the answer.

Dish has a contract dispute with Disney.

That track stinks, also shows you without DRS, F1 is just a train from qualifying to race…

Nighttime so no sun to dry and it was very humid.

Sucked hard for racing.

But watching it was exciting.

Like the qualifying, that had to be exceptionally hard for the drivers and made for good watching from the fans. I can't imagine pushing to the limits on a wet track, with concrete walls just inches from the edge of the track.

Yea, the track sucks and there will always be multiple safety car sessions. Personally, I did not miss that track over the last few years when it was not on the schedule. I honestly prefer the traditional tracks.

However, Vegas next year should be spectacular. This year's Miami race was pitiful, racing in a parking lot is as silly as the fake marina they built.

It had its moments for sure, but watching faster cars languish behind cars ahead because they simply couldn't race off line really took the edge off of things.

Every year they need to pick a race and spread a little oil on a few corners without the driver's knowledge just to keep them on their toes. .

Every time Nicole Briscoe comes on and says, "thank you for watching the F1 Grand Prix" of blablabla. I say out loud, now F you and we are switching to something we already had on the schedule and we really don't want to commit to F1.

Yesterday, I'm sure ESPN was crapping themselves since the race went super long.

The scheduled show was "Fantasy Football" something or another. Really, Fantasy????? I do fantasize about something but it isn't sports.

That's an idea I can get behind. Isn't it always one or possibly two races per year that have some rain that totally throws the grid into chaos? Love it! Like when Seb could have been WDC a few years ago but threw it into the wall on last corner at Hockenheim.

If you listen to ALL the words that Nicole Briscoe says at the end of every race, as well as at the beginning of every race, “Formula 1 coverage is provided EXCLUSIVELY by Mothers Polish.” So, Mothers Polish $$ decides when the coverage ends.

While it sucks that ESPN cuts it off shortly after the end of the race (“continued live coverage on ESPN3” which YouTubeTV doesn’t carry), I do enjoy the fact that the full race is run without commercial interruptions, or split screen coverage with commercials on half the screen. By comparison, NBC Sports and CBS Sport race coverage just sucks.

I agree. Indycar Racing is a terrible viewing experience.

I find Indycar and IMSA enjoyable to watch on Peacock via Hulu . Having said that I try to purchase Mother's products because of their F1 TV sponsorship .

Let me explain further. Indycar on NBC Sports with commercials every 5 minutes and without Paul Tracy on the team. Maybe now without having Jimmy Johnson being the focus will help some too.

Hamilton on the radio during the race:

I told you so
why won't anyone listen to me
he's being naughty
I'm going to tell my mommy

eight-year-old

In Canada it seems TSN goes to commercial as soon as pit stops begin. Split screen but it ruins it. Surely a better job could be done here.
