Belgian GP - Circuit of the Americas

And people actually call this trashy psychological warfare before the big showdown? Give me a break.😬

Watching FOX right now, and it’s absolutely pouring at the US Grand Prix in Austin. Everyone is out there clutching umbrellas, and both the crew and the drivers are bundled up in rain gear and heavy windbreakers.

Just saw an interview with Sebastian Vettel, Niki Lauda, and the FOX reporters. The kid is impressive—he actually reminds me of Michael Schumacher at that age.
I would've filmed that local guy, but I wasn't ready.

Kai Ebel is rocking a pink shirt paired with a green and burgundy checkered blazer. 🙏

By the way, why on earth won't our networks let us watch this German coverage of Formula 1? It would easily crush the ratings over at PBS.
I’d write a clause into the concession agreement myself if I could.

They feed us all this garbage programming while saving the best Formula 1 content just for their own people. Disgusting.

I would have loved to get some footage of that peasant, but I just wasn't geared up for it.

I’d personally write a clause into their licensing contracts to make it happen.

They feed us all this garbage programming, yet they hoard the premium Formula 1 content just for their own inner circle. It's disgusting!

My take is that two different networks usually can't broadcast the exact same thing.
For instance, over here, maybe Hayat carries Formula 1 and nobody else, or if it's soccer, one network grabs the English league while another takes the German one—it probably works that way through some sort of exclusive deal.🤷

Yeah, it’s soaking wet at Indianapolis 👍👍

It’s gonna be wild

If we want this championship to actually get interesting, I need to see Massa and Lewis Hamilton wreck each other on track while Kimi Räikkönen takes the win today

Even if the track stays wet, things are bound to get interesting

Anything else might fly, but Sebastian Vettel is finishing 4th, and even Sebastien Bourdais is scoring points.😉

🙏🙏🙏 If this actually happens, I owe you big time.😁

What do you guys think? Which Ferrari is going to tank today? 😬

I’d bet on neither. 😁 Honestly, I think they’ll both end up face-down in the grass. 🤣

I have a gut feeling Robert Kubica is going to overtake Kimi Räikkönen in the standings today, putting him just one point behind Felipe Massa and seven points back from Lewis Hamilton. ☕

Yeah, right.

A few people actually laughed at me when I called Kimi Räikkönen the winner.🤣

Man, forget all that, I’m just ready to see Kimi Räikkönen back on the track this season 🙏

But honestly, I have no clue what kind of aggressive move that was when he squeezed past Felipe Massa 😁

Man, Heikki Kovalainen was such a beast 👋

rustystag7 said:Yeah, right. Like we'll even see Kimi Räikkönen racing this season anyway. 🙏

But man, I don't know what kind of crazy driving that was when he squeezed past Massa... 😁

I mean, who knows if he’ll even be on the grid this year, but honestly, seeing him pull stuff like that at this track is totally on brand for him...

Back in 2004, he actually beat Schumacher, even when Michael was basically untouchable and that was his only win all year. Then in 2005, he left Alonso in the dust, and in 2007, he outclassed Massa, Alonso, and Lewis Hamilton McLaren. So yeah, you could say this is his playground, and Lewis Hamilton McLaren doesn't really stand a chance against Kimi Räikkönen here.

rustystag7 said:man, Heikki Kovalainen is such a beast 👋

He’s driving like an absolute legend 🙏

He kind of messed up a perfectly good drive there by trying that wild Coltard-style overtake on Mark Webber 🤣

Edward Howard2 said:Man, he really messed up such a solid drive with that desperate attempt to overtake Mark Webber. It was just... messy. Typical. 🤣

Man, honestly, it just happens. When you're moving at that kind of speed, things get intense fast and a wreck is always just one split second away.

Man, when you really sit back and think about it... if he’d been just a little bit further ahead, like maybe half a meter, that would’ve been Mark Webber instead.
Man, that penalty sucks. Total bummer, but hey, what can you do? It is what it is. 🙏

I've gotta say, I’m a huge fan of Kovalainen as a driver. The guy is just straight-up cool. 🙏

I don't know, Kubica is driving like he’s just out for a Sunday stroll. I guess I was hoping to see a bit more life from him...

Kimi Räikkönen 🤣 😂

Kimi Räikkönen 😂🤣

Kim Udre's a joke, he was never any good to begin with...

Lewis Hamilton 🙏🙏

McLaren 🙏🙏🙏

What an absolute rollercoaster those final three laps were😍.
I honestly thought my heart was going to give out right then and there😁--

man, what a driver... honestly, this is just pure, unadulterated luck, man
