Finally!!! 😁😁😁

I think we’ve all been waiting just as impatiently as I have since those tests in Miami. Some tickets are definitely booked, some are being looked at, and others—the big ones—are being held close until this year's first F1 Race Weekend kicks off.

2017 Race Weekend

Friday, March 24, 2017.
FP1: (02:30-04:00) Possible rain
FP2: (06:30-08:00) Possible rain

Saturday, March 25, 2017.
FP3: (04:00-05:00) Rain
Qualifying: (07:00-08:00) Rain

Sunday, March 26, 2017.
Race Start: (06:00) Sunny

Long-range forecasts aren't exactly reliable, but this is what the meteorologists are calling for two weeks out. Even though I love a good wet race, I'd prefer things stay dry—we need more answers than questions after this first weekend.

That first corner is usually a mess.

This was how it went down last year

Hang in there... just two more weeks.

It’s a bit of a mess, honestly, but whatever. All good things must come to an end, I guess. 😉

You can't really call it a weather forecast if you're trying to predict two weeks out—that's just guessing.

The ultimate goal is a 1-2 in Qualifying followed by a 1-3 finish in the race.

McLaren is going to keep pushing through winter testing in Los Angeles... they’ll probably hit their scheduled Day 2 program right around lap 15.

Honestly, I'm worried this race ended up looking like this:
Lujo
+ 30 sec Bottas
+ 70 sec Vettel
+ 1 lap Kimi
+ 2 lap Max
+ 2 Lap Ricc
+ 3 lap Massa
....

Nah, won't happen—there's always some random SC right at the end to bunch everyone back up anyway.

If Lujo lets any Ferrari get within five seconds of him, I’ll walk through downtown Washington, D.C. completely naked and post selfies all over this forum. It is highly probable that the Ferraris will overtake him. You correctly guessed Bottas's gap, but you missed the mark on the Ferrari situation.👍

Honestly, if Ferrari doesn't win the first race, I'll just walk straight into a gay bar.😵😵
On a serious note, we really don't know anything about reliability yet. Ferrari looked great during testing, but everyone was hiding their true pace. We won't know for sure until the Australian Grand Prix. Still, it feels like it could be a good season; I guess we'll find out in two weeks.🙂

The only thing I've got a real gripe with is the exact start time for the race. It’s driving me crazy.
Some people are saying 6:00, others are betting on 7:00, and then you've got folks claiming 8:00. Personally, I'm leaning toward finding a happy medium somewhere in the middle.

And what about this part?
