I have a feeling Mercedes and Ferrari are going to all but catch up to Red Bull in tech. We're going to get a much better idea how much of this year was Max and how much was the car.
I think we'll see both Hamilton and Leclerc with multiple wins, but I still expect Max to have the most wins and take the driver's chanpionship.
I don't see them coming close to catching up. Or I don't see Hamilton and LeClerc having multiple victories.
After the race Hamilton already looked depressed about next year stating that Red Bull basically hadn't touched their car since July or August. So they probably have upgrades ready to go. If anyone else other than Max or Red Bulls #2 driver has multiple wins I would be shocked.

From what I've read the biggest difference (among many, I know) that led to the performance gap was that the Red Bull team saw something in the floor design that none of the other teams caught. They basically caught lightning in a bottle. Other teams are going to figure that out going into next year.
They didn't catch lightening in a bottle. They got the friendliest regulations possible considering Newey is the greatest aero designer ever and within that his speciality is under car aero, he's essentially the pioneer of this concept.
The advantage RB had out the gate is pretty much insurmountable. They teams will get closer as really there is only one fast way to develop the car, but with that much of a lead in tech and having Max, simply no one is going to beat them. I agree with Max, if you want better racing, quit changing regs so dramatically every 5 years. You simply spread the field out every time.

It's actually classified as a one way, public road while its not rented for private event/track day. Regular road and traffic rules apply and (most) road legal cars are allowed on it without restriction. If you notice, it doesnt require any safety equipment, not even a helmet. Regular insurance covers it too. Its the most freedom track in the world.

Anyone planning on making any races next year? tWife (no pics) and I are considering Montreal and Austin. I’d love to do Interlagos or Suzuka but those might be out of the picture.

The Brawn GP documentary on Hulu is a pretty good way to fill the void of no race this weekend.

Montreal again. May try Vegas as well.
Posted on 12/1/23 at 8:38 am to Tornado Alley
Montreal and maybe Spa.
Have another Euro trip in the planning so not sure how that will go. Detroit GP is on the board as well, but Montreal is right after so not sure if we will do both.

Whatever races board members would like to take me to

Considering Montreal. Possibly silverstone.
Happy to share Vegas tips if anyone is considering going. However, guys behind us said all in (flights, hotel, tickets) to Monaco was cheaper than just tickets for Vegas.

Going to Austin next year, hard to plan outside of that given the project I am currently working

Make them work around your schedule. If shite isn’t planned a year out, then don’t wait to schedule something you want to do. Life’s too short, man.

If we go to Montreal, we oot to have a TDF1 thread meet up and drink some beers. I’d say it’s aboot time for that.

Lots of good pubs. Maybe LSU is in Omaha again.

Any thoughts on the new Williams driver?
Why not Sarge?

It is Sargent. Williams isn't known for sneaky signings or things like that.

i mean the only points he scored were because two drivers got disqualified in austin. even lawson filling in scored points. so i can see why they would look around.
