Said there were 400k people there this weekend vs maybe 280k 2018? That’s wild.

THey need to widen the two roads that get you out of COTA to at least 3 lanes so they can do a 2 lane contra-flow and 1 lane coming back for the shuttle buses. they have a bigger crowd now that probably any football stadium in the country but are serviced by roads that probably don't get 1,000 cars on them during a normal weekday.

I bet it is as much mental as physical. I am amazed at all the thoughts those guys can process while under full speed in a race.

But they missed the part a little before when Martin first saw the bodyguard and blurted out, "That's a big bloke".

Can you either delete your last two posts or fix/learn how to link on TD?

Which track is best for Hamilton to take the penalty at? I honestly don't know which of the last 5 allow for the best overtaking.

Forgot to ask, for those that were there was anyone else quite annoyed that the broadcast screens didn't show timing intervals? Our seats (T12 Sec.2) had a video board close by and the broadcast was the same coverage that usually gets shown on TV but they never once put up timing gaps except for a couple times showing the gap between Max & Lewis. Watching a gap build or fall is some of the exciting stuff but we kept having to guess. That was really my only complaint of the experience.

used the stopwatch on my phone to time the gap each time around. was getting really nervous when he was taking .5 seconds off per lap 5 laps in a row.

If he had to take a penalty. Which isn't guaranteed.
RBR should be able to take next week at Mexico, Brazil might set up better for Merc.

Also, having the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders there was very cringe. Completely out of place and sort of a "WTF - this not the pro football crowd."

Cowboys cheerleaders have been there pretty much every race. Part of Texas I guess.
It seems like UT band has done the national anthem a few times as well

To be fair, the Dallas Cowboys cheerleaders are world renowned.
They should bring back Grid Girls, though.
