Having packed up in a very heavy storm in Mexico City on Sunday night, we have now made the short trip from Mexico to Texas, for the United States Grand Prix at the Circuit Of The Americas. The current weather in Austin is cold – around 8 degrees, due to be colder on Thursday – but the forecast is for brighter warmer conditions for the rest of the weekend. COTA is an interesting track that presents very different challenges to the one in Mexico. It features elevation changes, particularly the impressive and very steep climb to the first corner, which therefore allows for very late braking. The layout is meant to replicate famous corners from other tracks and the first sector is similar to the esses at Suzuka, with a fast middle part and a slower final sector. From a PU point of view, it is quite straightforward with none of the special challenges of Mexico, therefore we will optimise PU settings, based on past data from this track as well as the information we have acquired this year. On a personal note, coming to the USA feels as little bit like coming home, as I spent so much time here working on Honda’s Indy project. Several members of Honda Performance Development (HPD) will be in Austin this weekend to discuss a technology exchange between Sakura, Milton Keynes and HPD. And of course, it will also be nice to catch up with them again! It will be a milestone race for Honda as this will be our 100th Grand Prix since we joined the hybrid F1 era in 2015. We hope to have a good race, reflecting the efforts of all our team members over the past few years.
Thanks
i think its not so easy first you need the knowledge of racing and you have to be expertise in vegas or premiere or whatever program you use to render then comes the complication of using the best rendering with small size videos and then you need a very respectable uploading speed couple that with ofcourse a beast of a computer so yeah you are the manJuzh wrote: ↑31 Oct 2019, 13:28Thanks
Although not a big deal, it's nice to see people aprrecieate these clips. I'm yet to see something similar from someone else on a regular basis, be it on reddit or anywhere else. IMO it's important to get those laps out there before the season's end, because all data in F1 app will be gone by next season, as it always has been.

you are really adding value with these movies, also because your own input around them is always objective (and I know you also post in many other parts of the forum in the same way). Unlike myself (and many others) who mostly just bring opinion your information I have regularly been looking at / learning from. Warm thank you. I know it is a lot of work and indeed nobody else is pulling that cart.Juzh wrote: ↑31 Oct 2019, 13:28Thanks

What bothers me most, is that it will be like a spec series with that new cars. With all that restrictions in aero, whan the teams can do? Every single car will look identical to the others except for the livery... I'm not convinced for the new regs...McMika98 wrote: ↑31 Oct 2019, 19:32Having just aeen the concept for 2021 aero regs, there is no doubt it is going to haunt this team. The front wing loading is inboard. Ferrari having mastered the airflow for optimum balance despite the lack of downforce have a massive head start. No wonder they dont want to delay the reg change.
Both Merc and Redbull wanted to delay till 2022. They clearly will have a lot of learning to do. I guess we need to lower expectation for next year because they will have to learn the new aero philosophy with inboard loading. Pretty glum but realistic.
