The Japanese Grand Prix at Suzuka was one where Red Bull Racing didn't disappoint. Verstappen and Perez had controlled drives and never under threat to take that 1-2 finish. Australian Grand Prix winner Carlos Sainz joins them on the podium by finishing third.

Of course, everyone must accomodate their schedules to the convenience of the UK at all times.
But I can imagine that if you are only exposed to F1 through British it may feel like the whole sports solely exists to service the UK.
No, this is a new change. They want the Sprint and the Race to feel like two separate events now, rather than them and their respective qualifying sessions being tangled up.
My recommendation is to go to https://f1calendar.com and add their calendar to your own (don't do it from the Official F1 site, since they add notifications as well, which just means you'll get spammed with notifications on your phone for every sessions).
Accordingly we determine this to be a first lap incident and decide to take no further
action.
If this incident had occurred on a subsequent lap, or without the presence of the third
car (Car 18), a different determination would have been made.

And owned by UK with the official line going through Greenwich, and all that
More seriously, I welcome the different time zone races, a good chance watch in peace and quite the races as they happen.
That was the intention to do had you had some proper pace in hand as LEC did brilliantly with that 1-stop, which sadly we saw they didn't have...AR3-GP wrote: ↑07 Apr 2024, 06:38Having an early safety car and even a VSC ruins any strategy where you start on hards. If you start on hards, you need to run long.atanatizante wrote: ↑07 Apr 2024, 06:34It's weird they mist starting on hards strategy based on the fact that most of the drivers could do that knowing that: 1.track temperature will be hotter playing into hards optimal working window and 2.there's a high chance of a VSC/SC in the first stint of the race. The only downside is that they are slower of the line at the start of the race but just see what ALO did in Australia a couple of weeks ago and not to mention that in Bahrain, on the same temperature and the same rough asphalt track the C3 tyre was the main tyre race ...
He knows, he just doesn't care. All the talk is betrayed by his actions right after it happened. Faking a throttle issue like some scheming kid who has just been sprung doing something they shouldn't have.It says right there why he reminds me of Mick.TeamKoolGreen wrote: ↑07 Apr 2024, 13:17Albon drove himself into the #1 position on an F1 team. Schumacher did not. Hamilton was crash prone in his first few years of F1. So was Max.
I rather find the opposite happening.... for the most part the finishing order is set after lap 2. This is just another gimmick that most f1 fans didn't ask forispano6 wrote: ↑07 Apr 2024, 10:31DChemTech wrote: ↑07 Apr 2024, 10:21The rest of the world thanks you for your compassion.

Most sprint race weekends spice up the racing so calling China rubbish is premature.
