Yep, just redirecting tax money into private pockets and then slowly increasing the cost.

It was above the rim Jerry!

They have changed the order of sprint weekend for 2024. No confirmation on if they will move parc ferme but seems more doable now with the main quali taking place after the sprint race

Think the biggest issue with sprint for me was the parc ferme happening after one practice session. I think they should try letting teams change the setup based on data gathered in the sprint

So how does this work with budgets, wind tunnel time, and regulations? Does the FIA send people ahead of entry to monitor things?

Maybe it was the original NFT

I believe they only ran medium tires

All contingent on repairs and the track has to open to regular traffic at 4am local time.

Think the quali is going to be rough for Mercedes with the temperatures in single digits. I think last year in Hungary they did the extra warm up laps so they might have to do that to get temp into tires but with the balance of turn to straights they might cool down anyway. In race they should get some of that back with a super low downforce setup, but I’m not too optimistic with how Brazil looked (I know that setup was wrong due to only one session but it left me traumatized hehe)

Overall I’m worried this race will feature a lot of crashing…

And bots are already better than us at these tests. Might be better to assume if someone solves too quickly they are a bot. Sorry Mensa peeps
