Are there support races for Vegas or is the only rubber on the track going to be from the F1 cars?

F3 is in Macau and I think they're streaming it for free? Everyone's favorite gamer driver Dan Ticktum is participating so be sure to follow his team radio for his opinion on "those people"...

oh I forgot Ticktum was going back to F3, should be entertaining even though I can't stand the guy. Presumably he thinks he's going to win it?

Looks like it streams here later in the week

The other option is to not drive a race car for a living so I can’t exactly blame anyone for staying too long.

Don't think many drivers, if any, are paid to be in F3 at any stage of their career. He's paying for this from wherever he get's his money from.

Huh, turns out he's won it twice before, I didn't know that. Or I probably did but I choose not to remember any of his successes. I want to know how this curtailed quote on his Wikipedia entry ends though

Some people can't take the hint, in Moto2 there's a 33 year old. I've often wondered why there's no age limit.. if we had the budget, could we sign up quid for F3 or whatever the next step up is from karting?

John McPhee in Moto3 was like the gold standard of "Why the gently caress is this guy still here its never gonna happen" and when he finally hit the age cap for moto3 he just parachuted into another junior series lmao.

This poo poo happens for a reason and I see it at the kart track. If you're paying out the money every year the people who are taking that money aren't gonna tell you "its never gonna happen" they're gonna take your money and start laughing behind your back at you.

Until it is winter and then it is very cold overnight, as F1 is about to find out. Well not even close to the coldest it gets really.

This is a good answer if you want to be wrong about deserts always being hot
