FORMULA 1 ARAMCO UNITED STATES GRAND PRIX 2022...Austin....RACE.. ▄▀▄▀▄▀ SPOILERS ▄▀▄▀▄▀

Race Day! Happy this occupies my evening here!

 

Oh crap, 10 places grid penalty for Charles for replacing more than one component on Power Unit.

So, Carlos vs Max, and Charles vs Sergio.
Also George vs Lewis?
(I wish Lewis does a proper start and overtakes Max before the 1st corner )

Also seems like Lando vs "nobody" at the start, because Stroll and Albon are more of a target for Valtteri.
'Nando from 14th will be dangerous as always at the start. But will he? Hm..

 

My only interest in this race is to secure our second place against Mercedes in WCC.
We don’t have enough race pace to compete with Max.
( And I would be very happy to eat a crow on this one !)

 

So far, my only real complaint being at the venue is the total lack of connectivity. Verizon seems to be nonexistent at COTA, and the guest wifi is useless. Would be a much greater fan experience if I could access live data. …and you losers also!

 

Dont let that ruin the real and live experience of being at the circuit. Enjoy!!!

Sainz—unlike RBRs and LEC—doesn’t have a 2nd set of new (M)s:

Watching the pre-race build up online. Announcer having a tough time correctly pronouncing names. Obviously not too familiar with F1.

I don't sense that Ferrari has gotten any faster, but it looks as if Mercedes has. Ferrari just doesn't know how to fight to the end of the season. I haven't been impressed with Sainz's starts, he could find himself in 4th by the end of the first lap, or even get taken out by an ambitious driver like Lando or Stroll or Albon.

 

what time is actual race start?

 

Just hoping for a clean start for Chuck, i'm sure he can do a good race from there..if Carlos holds first place it will help him, cause he will slow down the whole field!

 

Is it on a major network in North America?

 

In 85 minutes from now (correct for any time zone )

 

ABC. The mother network always yanks the USGP from ESPN.

 

ABC is already starting the Grand Prix, lead off is Max talking with Danica

 

I just don’t get how she is still relevant but I never was a fan.

 

She's not, but somehow they don't have anyone else to throw into the ring

 

Danica is fine Good interviwer Rather look at her than any of the Brits lol

 

Lol how did they shoehorn Zak into that car?

Mario looks great for 82!!!

 

That was funny.

 

The wind is going to play into this. Very unpredictable. I bet CL gets close to podium. The Mec cars could be trouble.
