Lol, you'd think they'd put the times in UTC at a minimum? Or produce one copy for each major timezone?

Fingers crossed for McLaren today!

Liberty are probably cracking down on VPN due to pressure from Sky, blocking VPN will lose them money.

I don’t know of a good way to stop it

Give a time limit for serving penalties, eg 5 seconds to be served in the next 2 laps. Forcing an early pit stop is WAY more painful to a team than just 5 seconds.

He is briefed before he does the walk, there is a sort of call card with celebs on that the journalists get before they go onto the grid. He also had someone telling him "there's Tiesto", but it still ended up messy lol.

The radio message where they said "its under investigation but we arent telling you to give it back, you know what to do" or something similar, made me feel though the team knew it would be a penalty but decided that track position was worth the risk and they were quietly asking Max to open a gap, maybe.

The biggest worry is that Chrome brings about change of websites which then requires other browsers to take on their trusted platform stuff in order to work.

Half the race was a DRS train, I don't think there was "lots of action" or any great racing. I'd rather see high speed corners and corners with multiple lines than the high speed straights and DRS overtakes. Also the deliberate attempts to force spectacle detract from the race, the over crowded grid walk with virtually no interesting celebrities despite being in Vegas, driving to a hotel for an interview delaying the podium, celebrity flag waver who looked like he didn't want to be there. All this on a backdrop of losing Hockenheim and risking the loss of Spa and Silverstone. Sorry if you feel that's negative, but F1 is going in the wrong direction with this, Miama and Saudi Arabia.

Lewis Hamilton Baby

Martin walked up and down the grid, basically spoke to nobody. Shaq said "Lewis Hamilton Baby" after Brundle waited nearly a minute to interview him. It looked like he was dying out there.

At least he said he had no grip, and he wasn't just claiming what he did was fine

Rolls Royce probably considered to be more of a luxury vehicle as it's foreign and known for the build quality and finish

Agreed the racing was poor, just slipstream and DRS, which I noticed Karun called "drafting" today...

Yes, that's the plan. Someone sat down and thought that was a good idea, and absolutely no money changed hands to have a giant advert for the hotel with the fountains...

This long wait for the interviews is just amazing, what a great plan

Possibly the worst grid walk of the year 😕

Expected this to be the biggest most exciting celebrity packed grid walk. It did not deliver.

Don't worry, he's forgotten that he forgot now

AI in 10k years:

If you worry the humans have horrible diseases and short lifespans, just remember, humans are just meat that we tricked into thinking.

There is no line because this is a photo finish. The camera is set up at the line and only records a single pixel width. The shorter the car, the faster it was travelling, whichever car is in front crossed the line first.

Did you change your mind in the final laps?
