The wait for Sauber to reveal their new identity for F1 2024 is now over, with the team to be officially known as Stake F1 Team from the new season onwards.

 

The Swiss-based outfit’s post-Alfa Romeo rebrand had been listed as ‘Stake F1 Team Kick Sauber’ on the FIA’s entry list for the 2024 season last month, but the team later revealed that this would not be their official name.

 

Sauber went on to tease a New Year’s Day announcement on social media, writing: “Just when you thought the sizzle was over, we’re about to raise the stakes even higher.”

 

 

Terrible name, I thought Racing Point was bad.

Gunther Steiner has left Haas 'with immediate effect' and is to be replaced by the teams director of engineering Ayao Komatsu.

About time tbh, great character and all but Haas were becoming more and more of a joke every season.

They fabricate everything else, so they'll probably just make out he still works somewhere!

Netflix must be f***ing gutted

 

 

Not sure that’s much of a loss otherwise. No doubt Netflix will have him in some form of pundit role for D2S

New track in Madrid from 2026.

Because yet another street circuit is exactly what the sport needs...

does it mean Barcelona will be out? cannot see 2 GP in Spain :/

Yep, thankfully!

The latest nail in the F1 coffin. Idk if anyone has been out to IFEMA but it’s f***ing soulless. They have/had an F1 exhibition there i visited last year that was pretty cool. Had some really cool things there and even Romain‘s car from his mega smash - well what’s left of it

Another inspiring idea of a street circuit this time in Madrid. They tried that for the European Grand Prix in Valencia from 2008-2012 and look what happened there.

 

With Grade 1 tracks, they have got Valencia, Jerez, Aragon.

 

 

The Valencia track is a completely abandoned wasteland now.

 

Hopefully this circuit is better, it won't be that difficult to be.

It doesn't look very interesting for racing.

 

At least Catalunya had the long curves, which are actually great for seeing the cars on the limit, and excellent spectator views. Whereas all street circuits have terrible opportunities for spectators to see large sections of the track all at once.

Neither did Vegas and that turned out to be one of the best races of the year.

Vegas being ok wasn't down to the circuit though - it was the time they held the sessions and race, causing low temps, low grip and subsequently a mixed up grid.

 

Madrid will likely be run in a much more traditional climate and time slot.

Madrid will no doubt just take the same spot that Barcelona has. I’ll have to make an effort this year or next then to go to the Spanish GP before it’s ruined

 

 

Catalunya, now they’ve fixed sector 3 back to how it was, is one of my favourite circuits
