That'd have been a riot if they brought in Kyle Larsen.

Typo's kill.

They really didn't waste much time with the worst kept secret in F1. Props to them for that at least.

Danny Ric would probably be a fun time in NASCAR.

There's always IndyCar for him too.

Lawsen isn’t going to give up a chance to win a championship in NASCAR

That sucks. F1 needs more OEMs not less.

Even without Alpine, 2026 will have more engine manufacturers than today:

Mercedes
Ferrari
Ford (Red Bull Power Trains)
Audi
Honda

I guess there won't be a Ford or Honda factory, but having more companies building engines is still pretty good.

Isn't Honda and Ford the same power unit?

Perhaps I'm being nostalgic for the old Williams-Renault days, but I don't see this as a positive for the sport.

The current Red Bull PT still has a lot of Honda influence. But by 2026 the Honda partnership with Aston Martin and Ford with Red Bull will likely be quite different. It will be interesting to see if Audi just punts next year with their car like Sauber did this year.

I could be wrong but I don't think so.

From what I remember/understand, I think it went/goes like this:

Red Bull was using Honda power units.
Then they kind of took over the development by creating Red Bull Power Trains, but Honda was still pretty involved.

Red Bull has now announced a new partnership with Ford, so it'll be RBPT-Ford

Honda has announced they'll develop their own engine for use by Aston Martin

Like I said, I could be wrong on some of that, but I'm pretty sure that's how it's all gone down

Aston Martin World Championship confirmed. 1 year after the next time Honda pulls out.

It’s been 10 years since Jules Bianchi crashed at the 2014 Japanese GP.

If you guys had to buy Las Vegas tickets, where would you buy them from? Just trying to see options.

All these websites have stupid fees

I bought my NFL tickets from Gametime day of the game today.

Not sure if there is much is of a resale market for F1 though.

I would always try from the official race promoter which is F1 itself for Vegas.

I’d also Keep an eye out for deals. Apparently it’s selling lower than expectations. Just saw a 30% off offer on Reddit the other day. Although I’ve read ticket sales at all races have improved since Max stopped dominating.

Which subreddit did you see that offer on? Is there one for ticket sales?
