I always think it would obviously be cool for the experience, but if you only see the cars flying around the turn you're on and no access to the rest of the race, I'd think that would not seem all that fun after a bit.



Yes, there's a huge screen near turn 12 and on other parts of the track. It basically looks just like the regular TV broadcast, my only complaint was they didn't show the timing gaps on the broadcast. So we sat there with our stopwatches on our phones timing as Max & Lewis went by to see if Max was able to pull the undercut when Lewis pitted, or towards the end of the race trying to see how close Lewis was to DRS range. Also, high up in the turn 12 grandstang was a really good vantage of the track, I'd suggest those seats to anyone looking to go.

@MoneyGram is based in Dallas and became interested in the Haas deal in part through @F1's growing popularity in America.

Guenther Steiner: "F1 has picked up so much in the U.S. They got aware of it and they’re one of the first American companies to jump on the bandwagon."

@MoneyGram Chairman & CEO Alex Holmes said the brand has probably seen more social media engagement in the last four hours, since it announced its @HaasF1Team deal, than it has seen in the last four years.

Guenther Steiner: "This is the step to the next level for Haas F1."

You follow the race on radio broadcast, or, if you can get a signal, your phone, but with a few hundred thousand people out there, cell service is super spotty.

The big screens show some live scenes but mostly give you position and gap.

This is why I got seats at the top row. The view. I can't see the start and finish, but I can see pretty much the entire race from turn 1 through turn 17 from that height.

I would love it if one of the old sponsors, like Canon, would come back to Formula 1.





If you guys see a sharp looking dude in a black Canon shirt with ref piping and Canon hat at COTA, that will be HB, livin' retro!

The screens usually show the world feed.

For a track near a city claiming to be all abt tech, service is garbage.
