I’m usually awake at 2 am. I’ll probably watch it

Stroll signed a new contract today also with a nice little pay raise from 12 million euros to 15 million.
Who knew he had a contract

Ocon out at Haas...
Posted on 9/30/26 at 7:32 am to Lsut81
Yeah, apparently HAAS decided that a while back. I think he tried forcing their hand last week and they kind of just left him hanging out there.

Ocon sucks. Good riddance.

We have stayed in Round Rock at it wasn't a terrible drive. I think that time we did the shuttle that leaves from downtown.

Ferrari are saying they are bringing a completely new car, chassis and engine, for next season.

But why? This seems like the most Ferrari thing possible.
They are very close this season. A few tweaks along the way and they should be neck and neck with Merc and now Mclaren... RB slightly back.

When we went in 2021 we got tickets and booked our hotels in April, we stayed downtown 2 blocks from 6th Street and all the bars and stuff, and it was $190/night. I looked into going back for 2022 and the same hotel was now $600/night, on top of tickets now being $1200/each, when in 2021 they were $440/each. It was pretty awesome to be downtown.
Every year I check the same hotel and I've never seen it dip lower than $450/night for the race weekend and I think one year those tickets got to ~$700/each.

Not sure if this is even news. Most teams do things like this. The off season evolution is means upgrading all of these.
Unless they mean they are starting from a blank sheet which seems unusual.

I think this is what is happening. They said they are gonna use a “new aerodynamic concept” and a whole new engine instead of just evolving the 26’ car.

They just need to make the one tweak of not being Italian. That'd solve a lot of their issues.

That tweet says a whole new PU. That seems pretty major.
Maybe it will be the difference, but if they fall back it will be the most Ferrari thing possible.

Anyone else feel robbed? I know Palou does, but I don’t know or even care for the guy, but as F1 fans we’re missing out on such a talent on the grid in his prime.
If Briatore is nearly as smart as he thinks he is, he’d dump that Argentine twat in favor of a proven talent in Palou…who’s seemed bored the last 5 years. Herta couldn’t carry the guy’s jock strap as he was getting lapped in a spec series.

I have gotten to enjoy watching Palou live in Indy car and he is amazing.
I don’t feel robbed at all. We should certainly enjoy him here in America

“There is no tax issue. You just have to pay tax.”

What is the Italian tax situation they're referring to?
Posted on 10/1/26 at 9:26 am to BottomlandBrew
Isn’t it just a high arse income tax?

“Formula 1 is facing serious legal heat in Italy. The Guardia di Finanza, the financial crime unit operating out of Bologna, has opened a sweeping inquiry into whether foreign teams and drivers have been shortchanging Italian tax authorities for years. The potential bill, according to reports, runs into hundreds of millions of euros.
At the heart of the investigation are earnings generated at three iconic Italian venues, Monza, Imola and Mugello, from 2020 through 2024, as reported by Nicoletta Tempera of Bologna-based outlet il Resto del Carlino.”
Italy Investigates F1 Drivers for Potential Tax Evasion of Millions
I think Italy has basically told them if they pay 50% of what they owe this will go away. Otherwise they might be looking for jail time.
I’m not sure why it’s a big deal now at Imola and wasn’t mentioned a month ago when they where in Monza.
