I love the way F1 is exploding in the USA !
Lots of new circuits coming for us. It's about time we caught up with the rest of the World. LOL. Seeing those cars cornering at 150mph is unreal.

BMW needs to get their ass in gear. I think the Audi/Porche cars are going to be nuts !

Big F1 fan. Happy to see more established brands joining the fray. It is a huge commitment, deep pockets needed.

Yeah, thats true….like Monaco, its all in the qualifying. Hopefully they considered this when they designed the US street tracks. We will see soon enough.

Except ....... have you seen the Las Vegas circuit, straight, 90, straight, 90 etc.

That can be boring. True purpose built road courses are my favorite.

BMW can't, It would be too dangerous for the other drivers to look in their rear view mirror and see the grilles.
