When RB gets the weight down and gets the cars reliable, they will be a force

Oh ok


That is a problem
Could it have been Max's car with a full tank of gas?
Ferrari did a good job of designing a car that takes off fast

Mercedes did a good job of designing a fast car
According to my “study” of the popularity of the sports it appears that F1 way ahead of the other 2 in TD ratings

F1- 86 pages
NASCAR- 34 pages
Indy- 11

And the commercials in college football are out of control these days.


Especially if you are at the games

The cinematic shots, beautiful women, exotic locations, and A list celebrities help the show as well.


Show the race and and the beautiful women. The rest can go

Check out how its doing thru 3 races, best in 18 years. Those fans cane from somewhere and my guess is F1


What if we are watching both?

But beating the deadhorse, its a balance of making your core happy along with brining in $$$ from the casual viewers to stay innovative and relevant.


I’m betting F1 will survive Apple and bad regulations. America is a small part of the F1 world.
I understand fully that part. Viewership will probably go down.

You are still beating a dead horse.

I wasn’t happy with the move, but I’m also see it has been an improvement for my viewing experience.

Maybe you don’t understand my point
Well so far Apple has done a better job than ESPN. The payout is easy to follow and you get Sky Sports and F1TV

Yup and the risk is that if you put out a shite product that drives your core away and to other forms of racing, whats left when the fair-weather Netflix/TikTok generation moves on?


That’s an excellent point


It seems the manufacturers are pushing the hybrid shite. I’m all about V8s. It’s hard to beat the sound of a good V8. One of my favorite sounds when we go to a NASCAR track is hearing the cars practicing
DTS, love it or hate it, is a big driver in the explosion of F1
V6 Turbos would be a good step

Make F1 Great Again... V10s for all


That would be awesome in these cars
I have no doubt that these teams will eventually get these regulations down pat. This year will probably be a year of development and hopefully by next season we get more reliable cars ans better racing
The sad part of the debate is that no one is talking about the aero package which is a success and the drivers having more room to race with the smaller cars

We are happy to see he has matured and is playing better

They get to come to Alex Box this weekend. Even with my Tigers not playing great, it’s still a tough task to win a series there
