If you press down on the race, you see a ton of options for different feeds including the Sky feed, the driver feeds, and stats feeds

We were talking about the old ESPN feed. I watch the Sky sports feed now on Apple
Sorry for the confusion

All right, the TD F1 Championship results are in!
dg42.net/TDF1/race-results.php?race=4
The winner of the TD F1 Miami Grand Prix is gatorhater08, for his first podium and first win of the season!
The podium is filled out by Lsut81 in P2 for his first podium, and ephidelt541 in P3, also for his first podium.
Congrats to the players scoring their first points of the season: gatorhater08, Lsut81, ephidelt541, tccdc, VABuckeye, Pitt Road, kengel2, and busbeepbeep!
These players have scored points in all four races so far: No one! Good!
Here's the championship table: dg42.net/TDF1/index.php
MikeD still leads after a dominating first two races, but none of the Top 4 in the championship scored any points! Great!
gatorhater08 has jumped from P20 to P5. Lsut81 has jumped from P23 to P8. ephidelt541 has jumped from P25 to P12. tccdc has jumped from P26 to P15. VABuckeye has jumped from P27 to P17. Pitt Road has jumped from P29 to P19.
After four races, 24 out of 29 players have scored points, an increase of eight players with points! Great job!

Oof - I'm one of them. IIRC, the tiebreaker is earliest submission

I’ll admit I didn’t realize this when I posted. Though it makes sense because I thought the race was at 3 pm but when I opened Apple app a little afternoon and the race was going I just went with it.
PS did it actually rain at race time?

Not in any significance.

Any advice? We will probably camp on site or at the KOA up the road.

If you have the ability to skip the traffic do so. It is brutal.
Also give yourself plenty of time in the track. Lots of stuff to see/do and some great sightlines.
You don't have to have grandstand tickets to see the race but there is a significant upgrade when getting most of them over general admission.

Do this. It's a blast. We've done RV passes for F1 and Nascar at COTA and its a party.

Pure luck, no skill.... Just glad my Mclaren predictions started showing out.
Fallout of the race yesterday is very little talk of regs, so thats a win for F1.
Although, there is a video making the rounds of Kimi on the back straight clipping out and losing 35kph. So still clipping, just not at the 40-50kph as was in Japan.

Talk of a return to V8s is picking up steam. Won’t be for several years but at least the powers that be are saying the right things.
?? Toto on the Possible Return to V8 Engines :
??? “Long-term, I think from a Mercedes standpoint we are open to new engine regulations. We love V8s, that has only great memories. From our perspective it's a pure Mercedes engine, it revs high.”
- Toto highlighted the importance of staying connected to the real world :
“How do we give it enough energy from the battery side to not lose connection to the real world? Because if we swing 100% combustion, we might be looking a bit ridiculous in 2030 or 2031. So we need to consider that, make it simpler, and make it a mega engine.”
“Maybe we can extract 800 horsepower off the ICE and put 400 on top of it, or more in terms of electric energy, we're absolutely up for it. As long as those discussions happen in a structured way, people's consideration are being taken on board. We recognise the financial realities of OEMs these days.”
“We don't have it easy, but if it's well planned and executed, we Mercedes, count us in to come back with a real, real racing engine”

Yeah, even if nothing was even close to happening, Ben putting it out there right now with the disappointment in the new formulas and the fever it would build was a genius move.
The talk and hype is going to be too much for the voting block to shun.
Posted on 5/4/26 at 11:51 am to Lsut81
Ben is an idiot. I truly believe his only goal is to crush F1 so that the Saudis can buy it cheaper.

Well they have some money lying around since they are pulling LIV funding

And this is why nothing will ever change. The people making these decisions couldn't be more disconnected from the reality the fanbase lives in. Just go back to V8, if you wanna get all technical throw a supercharger on the top of it and call it a day.
85% of the reason the product sucks right now is because of all this dicking around with electricity. Do that shite in FormulaE and leave F1 as the penacle of muscle+aero and move on with your lives. You can still engineer and tech the shite out of a supercharged V8 without all the dumb shite.

Sounds like they will be turbo charged V8s, if what he is saying carries any legitimacy.
