F1: Just shoot me now. May want to spare a bullet for Bill

This.

New F1 track in California. Fine by me, even if I never make it there.

Designed by Hermann Tilke? F that, f him, and f F1 if it happens.

The ultimate crime would be if the bastige ever got his hands on Spa. (He did a little to it already, but wants to literally destroy it outright).

Well, on the plus side, it can't be any worse than MMP.

Miller Motorsports Park?

Just took a look at that Wikipedia page. *Gag*

Speaking of terrible tracks, did you see how bad the new Lime Rock Park is? Why the fuck did they change it jesus

the ALMS race there was the best race of the year, but it had nothing to do with the track.

F1 is the cricket for cricket fans.

I'm sorry, but as someone who follows neither Cricket nor F1 (though I can somewhat guess about how Cricket is played if I were to watch it for a bit), I just had to pop up and ask if you could clarify that for me a bit. I just don't get it.

With Friday practice for Singapore scheduled for nighttime tomorrow, I wonder...

Have they done *any* extended practice at night yet? At night in the WET?

Bernie's so adamant about moving all the Asian races to nighttime without having run a single lap in anger at night.

I almost hope this turns out to be a complete disaster to shut the little twerp up for a change.

Hrm... guess I was wrong. REALLY wrong. It looked great.

The race weekend had a sort of Blade Runner science fiction vibe about it. As if the viewer was peeking at a moment in the near future.
