Monza 2021 Pre-Race thread

Yup. I've been there as well although I wasn't allowed to walk on the banking itself.

Yeah, same here. To me everything about Monza is magic: The old buildings, the grand park, the old banked track, the Fangio monument. It's just a beautiful place and so easy to get to by train from my beloved Milan. What a city! Say no more.

 

I have those pants...each time I spend a day working under my cars.

 

New front wing for the boys in red:

Good luck to all the drivers and all the teams. I'll be at the Monaco Vintage F1 races in May...anyone else going?

 

It's a shame the new CE won't arrive until after the GP...a powerboost would've been much welcome here and they could possibly content for a great spot.

Who knows it's still possible, last years race was crazy.

 

Thanks Joe, you are The Man!

 

That rear wing on the Ferrari looks to be too cambered for Monza. I’d think they’ll probably change it out or lay the flap down before FP1.

 

Amazing....just ridiculous the size and length of modern F1 cars.

 

It's Italy rules are meant to be ignored;-)

 

Not Garry Conelly, how come that guy is still there, everyone knows he works for elton!!!!

 

There is something funny about Charles, sometimes he looks like a driver from another era, i can't quite explain....

 

LOLO, i bet Roscoe is just thinking, please make me invisible, i'm ashamed to be seen with this clown! Where the hell does he get those clothes, did he found them in the garbage can?

 

Ferrari hopes possible F1 sprint race changes open door for reversed grids

Ferrari team boss Mattia Binotto is "very happy" to hear Formula 1 is considering changes to its sprint race format, saying it could open the door to use reversed grids.

NOOOOOOOOO!

 

Agree. Please, no more artificial BS!

 

Oh, now we're talking. Yesssss!!!!

 

I've always preferred two race weekends. It's non artificial, and it's extremely entertaining.

Friday Runs - Determine grid for Saturday's race
Saturday - Race 1
Sunday - Race 2 (reverse starting order from Race 1)

We are able to save costs in terms of logistics and traveling to so many unnecessary countries for races, fans are able to choose which day they prefer to attend, it gives chance for the back-markers to get TV time, and show their capability (ie. Mick Schumacher, Hungary), and we might even see exciting races like Turkey.

 

You got my vote.
