Damn it. I missed my picks for first time ever! Guess I'm on a carry over.

@keithcollantine

For what it's worth, @lance_stroll finished within one-and-a-half seconds of @PierreGASLY, and two of @yukitsunoda07's penalty documents incorrectly refer to his car as number 10 - which is Gasly.


Have some deleted lap times been applied to the wrong drivers?

F1, wow. Just wow....

Well I wouldn’t blame them if there was a mistake. There were over 100 deleted laps today.

AM has even launched a protest about it.

Something needs to be done. I don’t know what though. It becomes silly if you let them pick their own line. They’ll go off as far as they can. I thought policing it might force compliance but that’s obviously not gonna happen.


Edit: AM’s protest upheld. So I guess they’re gonna go back and review the footage and apply more penalties? Those results will then be protested no doubt. And rightfully so. Drivers change how they drive knowing about infringements. Adding them after the fact with no warning seems very unfair.

They have a couple options to fix this, add a gravel trap or a kerb to keep the drivers on course.

As the circuit currently exists, there is no risk to the drivers running wide and this mess is the end result.

Probably a few years for the tech to develop, but if they could instantly detect, and then apply an engine power cut for 3 seconds or something so it is never faster to be out there. If it isn't safe to do at the point of infringement, engage it as soon as it is, and the driver gets a warning light or tone so they know it is coming.

2024 Calendar is released. 24 races with the first 2 on Saturdays in Baku and Saudi Arabia. Looks like biggest change is moving Japan to April to be closer to Australia and China. Canadian Grand Prix moves to be right after Monaco and than Spain/Austria/British go back to back to back after that.

They likely don't want Miami/Montreal as back to back races so hence the jumps to Europe and back between.

There should be an F1 exception for tobacco advertising - the cars look so Damn cool with Marlboro, Lucky Strikes, Mild Seven, West…

It’s true - cigarettes make everything look cooler. Even F1 cars. Perhaps especially F1 cars.

Imagine Humphrey Bogart (RIP) with a vape.

Lame.

It’s a bit more regionalized so that help with travel but a triple header of Vegas, Qatar then Abu Dhabi is silly.

Bold, Cotton.
It definitely paid off for Bizaro86 this week as he takes top spot with 31pts and 5 correct slotted and and impressive 10/10 Top 10 (along with me, speede5, Jepworth, and Fuzz...well done to us!!).

Agulati took 2nd place this week with 5 slotted and 8/10 Top but it launches him into first overall with a 2pt lead over 3thirty. The past two years winners are leading...time to step up!

FleuryisGod, dammage79, and Ryan Coke this was your first week of missed picks, so all got carryovers. Ryan Coke continues his tradition of being super unlucky with the 2nd highest total of correct Top 10 picks...but in P14.
