You guys enjoying those middle east GPs ? I can't think of ONE I'm looking forward to. It's not that I'm against new tracks or Sheiks in robes, I thought Turkey was awesome (elevation, that triple corner), Singapore was spectacular if nothing else, but I'm finding out I love seeing classic old tracks (Spa, Suzuka, Monza) almost as much as the show itself... Bahrain, saudi, qatar... One is a sea of walls, this one was a sea of turns (in an oven). Can't seem to memorize them or develop much fondness for the features of any of them... I was reading something from a climate scientist who said 35C + 100% humidity is a death sentence after a few hours since sweat cannot evaporate and cool you down, seems like we were getting a bit close here ? A few drivers went straight to the medical center post race !

In other news HAM is getting a $50K fine for....crossing the track on foot after his ambitious move. And there were rumors in the German press that Papa Stroll was shopping the team (F1 only, not Aston road cars) to Saudi Arabia's Aramco for 800 mil. And that Mama Stroll had enough of watching her son crash and is putting pressure on him to complete that.. Who knows. Could explain Lance's current frustration and pressure.
