Running 2023 Motorsports thread

like I said - just watched the highlights, didn't watch it live - and granted, the highlights mostly featured the crashes.

 

Note for any deskers who may be left out there … they’re racing to the rain in Atlanta.

 

We‘l get to the end of stage 2, but I don’t know if stage 3 is going to happen.

 

YOU GUYS WE GOT DANNY RIC BACK IN A CAR IN TIME FOR THE VEGAS RACE.

Ricciardo to replace De Vries at AlphaTauri from Hungary

 

Apparently the biggest takeaway from Sunday's British GP is that some model I've never heard of snubbed a grid walk interview with Martin Brundle.

 

I thought it was a pretty good race. Landon and Lewis had a good scrap after the restart and it was fun to see Lando on the podium.

Max and Red Bull have put a damper on the season with just how dominant he’s been. As soon as he breaks DRS range, the race is over.

Red Bull is unerring on the pit wall, in the pit lane, and in the factory, and Max has just about all the cushion a racing driver could ever dream of on the track. And to his credit, he’s been damn near perfect (unlike Checo, who has been squandering that advantage since Monaco).

I’m excited to see Danny Ric back on track, especially for Vegas!

 

IndyCar's Alex Palou is doing everything in his power to secure an F1 ride for 2024. I don't pay attention, but hoping he lands a competitive ride because he's a real talent.

 

It was the most excitement my Alfa team has generated on the grid all season.

 

Welcome back, Thursday Night Thunder.

 

Not exactly sure what this has to do with the topic, but had the silliest dream last night.

NASCAR drivers on rollerskates for the Bristol night race in a pouring rain. They kept tripping each other on single-file restarts so they never could go green. I must admit I was amused.

Coors and Paxil apparently makes for some fascinating REM activity.
