So weird to have Zandvoort back again. A great track in its own right but it's hard not to associate it with Roger Williamson.
 (if you don't know, don't watch it)

The Max factor working there. |

It's a documentary of the 1973 season that focuses on 4 drivers in particular. (Not Williamson). Not one of them makes it to the final race. It's brilliant but not exactly fun This post has been edited by Severin: 14th May 2019, 11:36 PM |

Talks about a Morocco GP as well, would be good to have a race in Africa so all the continents are represented.
Not sure how they're gonna stick to a 21-race calendar at this rate though with Vietnam & Netherlands coming in next season. I guess Germany & Mexico will be dropped next season which is a shame as Germany is one of the few tracks that consistently produces decent races & I live for that stadium section at Mexico even if the racing is average. |

That would be the first time since their only Grand Prix in 1958 that they'll be an Morocco Grand Prix. |

Will Max have a 2016/2018 or a 2017? About the only excitement I'll be able to muster for this is watching to see if anyone clips the barrier

At least can we have a wet qualifying so there's a chance of a more jumbled grid. Still might not mean much overtaking of course but with the faster guys pushing the slower ones around the track someone (Grosjean) is bound to have a banzai move at Ste. Devote to bring out a safety car & make things interesting.

Even just a wet qualifying would do, just to make the race slightly better.
Grosjean, can we see him on the grid next year? as I think it might be his last year in F1. |

Apparently Chris Evans was part of the commentary team during second practice on Sky Sports F1......

Much like my wish for an exciting race, the likelihood of rain is slowly ebbing away

Well let's just hope that it rains at least before qualifying heavily to spice it up just a bit.

It's just possible that Ferrari's incompetence has injected the potential for overtaking into tomorrow's race with Leclerc starting so low down the field.

Their strategy for Leclerc and nearly Vettel was disastrous in Q1. Another Mercedes 1-2..
