I'l be away on holidays but should manage to catch it as it will be a 4pm start time where i'll be.

Should be a straight forward RB 1-2.

Mercs have some upgrades (apparently) for it

Tyres wear as per Normal.

The Planned operations for the F1 have been changed, the race will be broken down into 4 quarters and there will be timeouts anytime Lewis wants one.
Oh and driver introduction and cars to grid will now start 2 hours before the start of the race to try and drag it out as long as possible.

Ah I wouldn't say rubbish. I think it looks quite nice. Just not as blue as many expected!

Andrew76

HP are a new title sponsor though yep, so presumably that blue will be staying beyond Miami?

I think it will. I wonder will we see Charles, Carlos and Lewis advertising HP printers on the TV 😃

Charlie-Bravo

If they turned up with a blue car, and I had bought a ticket for this event, I'd be a little p!ssed going to a race weekend and the Ferrari was not red!

Blue Ferrari my arse, it is a Ferrari with a bit of blue on it.

I do hope the white splashes on the wing stay for the HP branding.

The Ferrari boys look like they work that Noonan cleaning company in those awful blue overalls

That's stunning. I love it.

Why does Miami always get one-off liveries or one-off helmets? There's certain races that always seem to attract the fancy stuff…

Another weekend where I won't be able watch the Sprint quali or race. So I'll just pretend it didn't happen.

THAT is how you do a special livery.

The bright colours on the junior Red Bull team reminds me of:

It's Miami so pretending it didn't happen probably isn't a bad idea

I'm just watching the F1 show on Sky's youtube. Anthony Davidson and Danica Patrick both on the coverage. What did we do to be punished like this?

Andrew76

Hearing McLaren have brought a load of upgrades this weekend. Be interesting to see how they get on.
Ugh, Crofty already annoying me and coverage has only just started.

Andrew76

Leclerc blocking the road.

Well, I had a look out at the road outside. No sign.

Never change Jordan. 😁

And that’s a red flag since he wasn’t able to get it turned around. Got stuck under the bridge at the start of the long back straight, pretty narrow there.
What do folks think of the blue Ferrari overalls? Not the worst looking things.

Up Cork.

That Ferrari doesn't look as crap in real life.

Nighttime f1 is where it's at, perfect time.
