reddit does admittedly get the content first- I see myself like a curator for the British Museum, we take the artifacts (content) away from the primitive people (redditors) who merely created it and and don't have the sophistication to understand or appreciate it properly and bring it back to the Civilised World (SA) where it can be enjoyed by the Right Sort of People.

lol at the idea that you think that somehow this lovely forum is somehow better than reddit

on reddit everyone seems to authentically think F1 is good which in my opinion is a terrible way to enjoy and consume it.

Remember that Vettel had working LED lights in his helmet for Monaco one year.

Actually I miss the stupid poo poo teams would do in Monaco. $200,000 diamond in the nose of a car, that got stolen when the nose was broken off in a crash, hell yeah!

the tighter one (turn 3?) maybe, the last corner is built to open onto the straight and have multiple lines so it should be possible.

No spectators at the race and apparently sky broadcasts get a maximum of ~70,000 viewers which is less than half of most video game tournaments these days.

Good job liberty and sky.

That's still a low number, but that number is online-only viewers. The TV viewership is still fine.

F1 fans are mostly old, who knew.

Maybe they could get Forza or Gran Turismo to do a retro sponsorship and put a bunch of cardboard people around the track?

The Gulf races seems to be fuller on Saturday then Sunday, which makes sense. Sunday crowds seem to be Europeans On Tour.
