Ah, I'm so sorry. That's awful! Next year has to be the year where everything goes back to normal. Hopeful for 2022 tickets for you! ❤
Thanks! Our tickets will be valid for next year, so that’s the good part 🎉🎉 I can wait another year 😂 (tickets were for 2020 originally 😉)
But it is sad to see that a lot of people who got valid tickets for this year are trying to sell them at ridiculous prices now.. They just want to make money, not interested in F1 ☹ But that’s life.

I used to watch Indycar about 20 years ago, it was on channel 5 and Eurosport and I enjoyed it. It’s not the same technically to f1 but there were some great races. Loads of safety cars but also meant no one ran away with the lead. If I still had access to it id probably still watch it.
 
Oh hell! I love lando but would he do it? Would he be willing to be the second man. I can’t see it
Nah me neither. McLaren seem to have good set up atm and he is top boy so why move? Money? better chance of winning? Think he'll stay.
George and Danny Ric at Mercs @StephenTJackson will faint at this thought!
Bizarre thought of them 2 at same team thoughts Lewis is still there and none us know who is having 2nd seat at Merc. They could surprise us and keep Bottas 🤣

Thing is he’s a good driver so if Lewis was to leave, they know what they’re getting. Whilst the relationship seemed strained it would be a complete surprise that he would stay because let’s face it where else is he going to go?

I still want to see Lando and Pierre together at McLaren for the most attractive driver lineup. Shame we don't have third cars, then Russell can join for the perfect three. 😍😍😍😆😆😆

Danny Ric at Mercedes with Russell, would be an attractive pairing.

But quite frankly there is silly season and there is that load of rubbish that Buxton has written.

I would hope Lando would stick it out at McLaren now they're on their way up again. Would love to see Danny do well again but my concern would be that Merc wouldn't take him as his last two moves haven't seen him flourish. He seems a good bet but it doesn't work out. I hope he didn't peak at Red Bull. Maybe Carlos or Charles would go to Mercedes as Mick obviously has his career lined up at Ferrari, one of them will need to make way. Would be interesting to see who would be No 1 driver at Merc if both Lewis & Valteri left at the same time. Would George expect to be top dog?? So many thoughts 😂

This is why I don’t think merc would let them both go at the same time. They need a gaurenteed winner and whilst George could do that…. It’s too untested.

Be surprised if Charles leaves Ferrari he is top dog there. No diss on Carlos but he is currently if that were to change and it could then yeah Charles might look elsewhere.
Mick has plenty of time on his hands for Ferrari maybe another year or 2 at Haas the snails. But with all the new stuff coming in they could improve loads. So many ifs and buts!

With Charles signing that like super contract until 2024 or whatever it is I see him continuing on there unless something drastic happens. I'd also be shocked to see him leave.

He will be 27 by 2024 so young enough to move and establish himself somewhere else if Ferrari have still not sorted themselves out but would need to be a good move or he could end up joining the large group of drivers who had potential but never fulfilled it.

Watching the Eurosport build up to the Le Mans 24 Hour race, and oh my god, the broadcast quality is SHOCKING compared to F1. The presenters inept, timings out of whack, just really naff. Even BTTC on ITV4 is a better standard of broadcast.

We are so lucky as F1 viewers to have quality, competent broadcasters, presenters etc.

You can tell the intense funding F1 gets compared! I'm a huge MotoGP fan and they've just started doing some of the same things on the graphics and I love it. (their funding is tiny compared!!)

If you watch Sky, Crofty's occasional errors are somewhat hilarious, I LOVED Rosberg being in the comms box and I hope he does it again.
