I’ll be at the race in Vegas. Got presale tickets through Amex and booked a room at the LINQ the day after we got the tickets for 3k for 5 days.
Checked last night and room rates have been slashed in half. Called the hotel and had them switch me to a suite at the Paris and saved 1k.
Hotel employees were very diplomatic and politely told me they were looking forward to construction being done so their commute wasn’t as bad as it’s been.

That chicane sucks arse, glad its gone
I agree. I like it as a single chicane but as a double it's no bueno for me.

Wow, wonder if this is an indictment of a "boring" season or the average fan taking back over.

Have we discussed Helmut's comment about Sergio and now Hamilton's response?
LINK
quote:
"Let's remember that he is South American and so his head is not as focused as Max Verstappen or as Sebastian Vettel was, but racing is his forte and he had a very good race."
These comments sparked plenty of backlash from fans across the world with plenty calling for the Austrian to lose his job with Red Bull. Despite the calls for Marko to face the sack, the 80-year-old has escaped with an apology.
quote:
“It’s completely unacceptable what he said," Hamilton told Sky Sports F1 when asked about the comments. "Whilst we say there’s no room for any type of discrimination in this sport, which there should be no room for it, to have leaders and people in his position making comments like this is not good for us moving forward."

Helmut really showing his ignorance here.
Doesn’t he know Mexico is not in South America?

This is just Helmut's quarterly semi-racist statement.
Last year was Sergio should be used to the missiles in Saudi because he grew up with crime in Mexico City. Which he didn't.

SHARP!
I bought one of the McLaren Gulf hoodies from when McLaren did the Gulf livery a few years back. Might have to crank the AC down in the house so I can wear it, slap some Williams logos on it.

I know everyone’s excited for another year of Zhou Guanyu in the Stake Alfa Romeo

That pretty much locks up all the seats.
Maybe Sargent's seat is still in limbo.

Interesting re: hotel prices in Vegas for the race. This lackluster season with respect to the WDC has no doubt affected the DTS crowd's interest.
I can't wait to watch that race at night under the lights.

I wonder if F1 is getting viewership numbers in Zhou's home country with him having a seat. Would like to see their grand prix return to the calendar.

Even if Sergio were from South America, what does this even mean?

Last year's comment about Yuki not being the typical Japanese driver. Typical Japanese drivers are nice polite and don't make those kind of public remarks.
At least he didn't say Checo is slow because he has tequila the night before a race...again.

There aren't that many great South American drivers. I mean, once you are past Fangio, Fittipaldi, Senna, Piquet, Barichello, JPM and Massa.
You are really only left with Maldonado. Who yeah, who wants to have a driver like Maldonado.

Helmut is a made man at RBR. If this were the US he’d be canned or suspended at minimum.

Are you high??
De Ferran, Castroneves, Kanaan, Junqueria, Da Matta, Juan fricking Montoya
My entire childhood was essentially by dominated by elite South Americans winning at the highest levels of open wheel racing

Yuki doesnt deserve to carry Sato or Tora Takagi’s jockstrap
