Maggot moor is where we leave thatchers corpse, named after the maggots that live there

Feels like this is a never-ending series of deflections - aaah, no, you see it’s named after maggots manor, and that’s named after maggots river and THAT’S named after… and ultimately it’ll always end up being name after maggots, the cadaver-eating worms.

Seriously thinking about going to the race in Canada next year, where do people buy tickets these days? Official site says tickets on sale on July 26th, but you can already buy them on other sites like 'Motorsport Tickets'? I probably would want to sit in Grandstand 11 or 12.

I've been once before, but it was back in 2002 I think, so anyone got any protips on attending the race these days?

I went to Canada in 2019 and had a great time. If I remember correctly I got my tickets from the main F1 site. Went all 4 days. Thursday was the grid walk and I was lucky enough to get 19 of the the 20 driver autographs. I think it was the first 200 people in were able to go to the autograph section. McLaren stayed at my hotel in downtown Montreal, so every time I got in the elevator I saw orange shirts. Met Carlos in the gym upstairs and he was very nice. Met the other driver in the lobby and he was a douche. Was glad when he DNF'd that day. Karma. Section 11 was the most sought after and then 12 so try to get those when available. I stayed in section 24 Lance Stroll all weekend. If I could do anything differently, I would have tried to get tickets in different sections for different days. My seat was fine but I saw the same view all weekend.

Looks like the tickets are live now, don't wait. https://tickets.formula1.com/en/f1-3215-canada

Why have the English historically sucked so much at their own language? And also creating bad units of measurement and thread pitches?
