    Which would probably be a snoozefest of a race.

    Another non-race weekend is upon us. True, there will be an F1 event, but all the teams have given up and are working on next year's cars. The FIA and Liberty have now cut the season down to 12 or so races, with a lot of parade laps for the rest of the season. Of course they could make it two seasons in one. A championship for the first eleven or so races, and a second one for the second half of the year. But that isn't a real solution. All they have to do is drop the budget cap, allow open testing, and let the best cars and drivers do what they really want to do. I'll record this weekend, but I'll simply fast forward through it all on Sunday.

    So Ferrari aren't putting on their upgrades because, wait for this, ''the next 2 tracks aren't very similar''.

    Merc put their massive upgrade on in Monaco of all places.
    Red Bull put theirs on during a sprint weekend.

    Come on Ferrari. WTF kind of excuse is that?!

    Perhaps because the next race is Monza and they want to have a strong showing for the home crowd? Dunno.

    sure, but surely you'd want the data from Zandvoort for the race after Monza then? If they're not sure on it working for Monza, simply revert back to pre-zandvoort spec then for that...

    In the Rockies, freeway limit is 80, mini vans running 100; I usually cruise 120-130 with complete focus on cop potential and other drivers. On the back, hidden , empty 2 lanes, it's easy to run 165 half an hour at a time, such a scofflaw.
