Will there be any passing or actual competitive racing in any of them? From what I've watched of F1 lately they aren't very competitive.

I posted this in another thread.
I am the F1 guru, only been watching since last year, but I am a very quick learner.
While not a fan, I am an observer, and they would benefit to make me a consultant, as I get all things.

Here is my sage post from another thread:

RB has issues, appears MCL upgrades are superior.
Max was 10sec up before safety.
Lando got lucky with pit timing, but that's racing.
Max never got closer in last 20, tells me handling, or apex strategy, as did not lose in straights.
perez doing shit tells me team RB has issue, perez never passed anyone.
hamilton a solid 9th, not bad for a dood who just got $120+M for next two years.
Next weekend in Italy may prove me wrong, but, again, RB is lacking.
Mag is a danger to the field, needs a 40-race suspension.
Sargeant is okay, but will be gone before end-of-season, he needs to punch Mag.
MB is done, will finished a solid 4th.
Sainz needs a seat, deserves one.
No need to add 1 or 2 teams, as bottom 5 are hemorrhaging cash.
Sprint race is good for F1 fans, need more of this.

I am usually on line, but if not, and you need assistance please PM me, and if you want you can also email me at [email protected] .

Please tune in my podcast. 'WTF are you??', I cover mostly F1, and other motorsports.

Nope, most F1 podiums are determined at the very first term.
On tracks like Monaco, there is not enough width on 99% of the track for two cars.
Of the ten F1 teams, six are there to run interference.
Mag is a liability for all on the grid, does not even know how to correctly serve a penalty.
Best part of F1 ran is the walk-through prior when the dood cannot get anyone to talk to him.
F1 needs to bring back the Paddock Babes!!

Thanks. Guess I won't start watching F1 again. They need to figure out how to have competitive racing again.

Miami GP is the best, only three years and already #1.

I am working on a Miami Second Weekend, at Homestead Oval, let me know if you want to contribute seed money.
I think I could gross $100+M in total receipts.

Next up is VERY FIRST WORLD 1-MILE RUN on Space Shuttle Runway, the world will come, open bracket, two losses per entry, winner takes all, $5M prize, grudge betting allowed, will be Saturday and Sunday night primetime PPV.
John Force and I will be the commentators.

GSC3 will beat everything since it's a short straight line and everybody knows a Plaid will win. Put a curve in there and he'll wreck before the finish line.

1-mile, and 1/2-mile, runs are ONLY about MPH at the end, no one cares about your launch, 60-foot or ET.

I think all telsas die at about 112mph, so they can show up if they want, but will have to play the role of fluffers.

I had to goggle that, https://www.motortrend.com/events/ve...tte-challenge/

Sounds similar to IROC, doubt we will ever see equal races again, as everyone wants to cheat, they ALL cheat, some are just better at it than others.

Chad Knaus was damn good at it.

Hamilton's a woke, racist POS! It's truly a shame that he's going to Ferrari.

Ferrari don’t GAF what Hamilton is as long as he drives the shit out of their car and wins.

I have been an avid Ferrari fan since the 70s , as a kid.
I enjoy the high tech F1 brings to the sport of racing. The engineering involved is pretty damn awesome. Whether you like one team or not is irrelevant, its a great sport to watch.
I am not a fan of the V6 Hybrid cars. They are huge cars.
My favorite era was the V12 Ferraris, then the V10 cars.. Awesome sounds.
As far as lately, I think Red Bull had a Singapore incident, and Mclaren did well, but it isnt enough. Watching Max in qualifying shows there is always more in that car. Same thing when Lewis was winning everything.
I wish they would go back to refueling, no hybrid, and one tire, no different compounds and get rid of DRS.

He is a POS. White Mom, Black Dad, was brought up by Frank Williams in F1. He is a racist person, no doubt. And the Whole BLM shit during one season was just BS. F1 bowed to him as he were something important.
And he dresses like a goofball.
Kapernick was the same profile, White Mom Black Dad
Obama is the same, White Mom Black Dad
See the trend?

Talking about F1 is got me banned from CF in the first place.

The mid/back pack racing is good. I think them extending the points also helps but I think there should be points from 1-18. They all seem to race hard in the back but adding some incentive never hurts.

LOL - you got banned for discussing F1? That's a new one! Too political?

Thanks for posting up an F1 discussion thread OP! I love F1! This year is a complete farce of course, because Verstappen is going to win easily - but PORSCHE and AUDI come back next year!!! YES!!!!! It's gonna be epic!!!

And seeing Lando handily take a win over the weekend was cool too!
