2011 Arab Spring started in February leading to canceling that year's Bahrain GP. 2022 for Russia but that was probably more political than actual danger.

6/7 weeks from Bahrain and Saudi. Although what's a few bombs flying overhead at Jeddah?

Apple TV 4Ks are fantastic


Best streaming devices I have... Have 3 of those and 2 Firesticks in the house... Absolutely loathe the fire sticks in comparison.

They aren't terrible, but can't hold AppleTv's water.

Even a used first gen 4K is great. HDs are still good too but this’ll be the first year we can watch F1 in 4K thanks to this new deal.
You can buy them cheap on eBay

And if you use Fubo for streaming cable, the app for the Apple TV allows you to do your own multi-view.....perfect for college fb season

Gave it up last year and didn't miss it one bit. This is just another step in the weening me off F1 like a lot of the other sports


Well, could you carry yourself out of this thread and stop telling us how you are going to stop watching

Do yourself a favor and go buy decent quality streaming boxes to use instead of the TV’s built in apps.
They sell a cheap one at Walmart called Onn that’s great apparently and Apple TV 4Ks are fantastic if you’re already in the Apple ecosystem.


I have them on all of our TVs including a Panasonic Plasma TV from ~2012.

It’s the best thing I’ve ever done for our TVs. The second best thing is factory resetting the ones that had been internet connected and taking them off the WiFi or Ethernet. Just treating them like they’re dumb TVs, otherwise they all seem to make themselves worse over time and spy on you.


Thank you so much. I'll check that out today.

Dts dropped today. Episode two with scooby Doohan and flavio is entertaining so far.


Just tuned in… wouldn’t have thought Buxton was still on it. Thought he went full Indy.

Well that’s cool.

The behind the scenes of the O2 live reveal 1st episode is worth watching if nothing else is.

I'm with this guy. Absolutely pissed about the Apple TV deal and refuse to just bend over at this point.

Italian news (lol) reporting Aston may intentionally only do the formation lap in Melbourne and then retire. If so, that makes picking places 21 & 22 easy

I was reading some article about Honda over the weekend. Said something about various vibrations they can’t get control of damaging the battery for some reason.

Crazy.

I mean, what is it, 2yrs since they dropped and RBR starting producing their own units.

Did Honda just forget how to produce an engine? Crazy they are this far behind/off.

Most of the Honda expertise went to RBPT. Honda had to rebuild the company.
