I have been confirmed as a marshal for the Vegas race. I should make flight plans soon.

How did you get that cool gig?

I live in Vegas and haven't seen any adverts for marshalling duties.

Danny Ric
Seems he broke his wrist in an innocent looking off in second practice, probably
wont make the race. Too bad.

I think Ric is done, actually think he was done 2 years ago, he just hasn't realized it yet. This was a rookie crash and a rookie mistake on top of it with keeping his hands on the wheel. What was he thinking? Apparently not how to drive an F1 car. Sad to see but his days are numbered.

I feel bad for Danny Ric but letting go of the wheel before impact is a given . Will be interesting if Liam can get up to speed after a few races .

My sister, who is local to the area, sent me a link. You could apply for marshal, track debris cleanup (which does sound like fun), and service. There was a multi-step process to go through: initial application and then application for a background check if you passed the first gate. Less than a week after I applied for the background check, I received the final news.

I don’t know but nothing has been said and I am not expecting anything.

Do you all not think they should have let DeVries run the car over a rookie given it was his home GP??

Gunther Steiner not a happy camper with FP3 crash by K Mag . Him and Hulk both damaged new aero front wings .

Interesting quali, great to see Williams doing so well, I wish they could get a fluky win.

It's always great to see teams usually at the back to do well from time to time.

I hate to say it and hope I am wrong but I don't see Logan Sargeant keeping his seat after this year . Two crashes in two days is not acceptable .

^ Agreed, especially since Williams seems to be turning a corner with the new car. He's surely on notice.

If this interview is accurate it sounds like team principal Vowles is giving Sargent space to grow . We shall see . He did qualify 10th for this race so did show good progress .......... until he wrecked the car .

Perez knows he's the # 2 driver it's obvious to everyone . Having said that I am sure he's questioning some of the " team " strategy decisions today . Alex Albon the tire whisperer is wringing the neck out of that Williams chassis . He's fun to watch .

I always watch the recap on YT since we have no cable and no subscriptions. It's good enough for me but today the feed is corrupt. It was the worst presentation of the year anyway. the editors must have been drunk.

So I don't know who won yet and for some reason I don't care. I'm tired of looking at Verstappen's ugly face.
