Just now seeing this thread, did they actually run on the sand in Bahrain? The only F1 race I have been to was in Bahrain and they certainly put on a show outside the stands.

Heck, the sand was blowing everywhere during the practice days and Q day......so yea, they ran over and onto the sand at times! Race day was not as windy. F1 definitely brings a show when globetrotting. Amazing experience!

I seem to have one of those good conundrums this wknd.
Last youth sports game is at 10:30 am Saturday. Do I... head to the lease and go Turkey hunting or stay home and head to TMS Sat evening for the Indy race?
Decisions!

A turkey or a high performance race car? Humm, well...........I know the only turkey I would see is one on a sandwich.......LOL! Great to have choices however.

Looks like we’re losing the Canadian GP this year. Will be back next year, though. Turkey will replace it this year.

I’ve been to that race twice. It’s a really cool track. In fact, the first F1 race I ever went to was in Montreal in 1994. The sound of those engines (especially the Ferrari) were magical.

I saw that announcement earlier this morning. That last Turkish race was awesomeness, great battles. Hopefully next year we can hit Montreal, Austin & Miami over 3 or 4 weekends in North America.

How does Ocon go P4 in Q2 session and Alonso is stuck in 13th? Disappointing lap. Also, see Ricciardo. Yikes.
Mercs look fast so far.
And looks like rain tonight at TMS for the Indy race. Boo.

[F1addict]

Yes, Ocon looked very strong in the Alpine, as did Gasly (AT) and Russell (Williams). Great showing from all of them!

The Red Bull’s were struggling with the wind at certain corners, and I believe that’s what hampered them to 3rd and 4th. Good job to Bottas for taking pole. All MB front row for tomorrow’s race start.

I always enjoy Kimi’s radio transmissions. This morning was awesome — “I’m sure we have somebody on the team that can figure this out!” ROFL

It might be a mad rush to halfway, they moved the start at TMS to 30 minutes from now up to 6:10pm. They got a second race tomorrow thats longer distance, weather looks better.
