I really do believe that this will be one of the most entertaining, or one of the most boring races out there. It is going to be either entertaining because it's a new thing and unexpected stuff could happen and drivers do not know the track at all, and they would need to learn some stuff and there will be some drivers who will "go for it" and some that will race carefully.

Like a Max Verstappen crash isn't out of the woods yet, I could sense him doing something crazy somewhere he shouldn't. We just have to wait and see how the race will be, it is going to definitely be something unique and entertaining for sure, not going to be something crazy but unique for sure.

If I were betting on the outcome, I'd definitely lean on "most eventful". Whether or not that proves to be entertaining is another thing completely. But yeah, I like new stuff and seeing how drivers react (or perhaps how much they disobey or ask for team advice heh).

Verstappen's got to be itching to go for this though. Don't think it'll end up DNF but he's sure to ruffle some feathers heh, like you said. Unique without being crazy is what I'd expect from this weekend.

It looks like the failures of Mercedes this season give the team a new impetus to focus and bring their car to the desired state. In Miami, on a new track for everyone, it looks like Mercedes will apply small tweaks to the settings. But seriously, they promise to sort out the car for the next races in Barcelona.
I am very worried about their result in Miami. It's time for them to get out of this sad state.
It's still not clear if it's going to rain or not. Huh

We're going to Miami for the next grand prix on a brand new track in North America.

If the new trailer for this race doesn't get you excited then you need to get a check up for those vital signs:

Even though there have been many weeks in this season of F1, the teams still haven't been able to find a solution to the porpoising problem. I think that Mercedes can catch up with Ferrari and Red Bull in terms of the car by the end of the season. But the point gap is getting bigger and bigger and it is going to be hard to close for them. By the way, check out the F1 picture that Haas have shared. It is really amazing.

A new circuit in F1 we will see if it ends up being a fun one or a boring one.
The atmosphere is going to be great because of the people who are going to attend.
It seems to have very long straights so we will see how the teams with less top speed manage.

Well after the rest week we have race week again.
I was looking at the calendar and I see how this race in terms of logistics is left behind, because we had been running in Europe and in fact after this race we return to Europe again but only for this race the teams have to move everything to America from North

It looks like we have an official confirmation. Audi and Porsche will come to F1 in 2026.
But, despite the rumors, it looks like they will not buy/take over a team and also will not come as a new tem, instead will work it out with existing teams.

Quote from: https://www.gpfans.com/en/f1-news/81619/audi-and-porsche-decide-to-join-f1/

It is expected Porsche will partner Red Bull and the team's new powertrains division, whilst Audi has been linked to McLaren, Aston Martin and Sauber, the team behind Alfa Romeo's F1 entry.

Yes this years race in miami is definitely going to be crypto focused since the scene there is favored with it being sponsored under the same name.

Just heard the very sad news of Ayrton's passing:

https://twitter.com/ScuderiaFerrari/status/1520652248279306240

Both Ferrari drivers paid their respects via a tweet of what the loss meant to them:
Sainz: https://twitter.com/ScuderiaFerrari/status/1520652257678835719

I am sure that NFT collection that is confirmed by Mercedes F1 team directly would definitely get some attention above what others did. Yes, we could be in a period where NFT's do not get the attention they used to get and I understand that, but the fact is that we are talking about Mercedes f1 team originals here, they are the ones who approved it and selling it, via FTX of course but it’s still there.

It means that it’s going to be a big deal when the Miami GP happens. They are the most crypto friendly city for sure but the overall Florida isn't the same, Ohio or Texas or California as states could be much better for that sense but as a city Miami is at the top for sure.

Not surprisingly, Miami is coming up with all sorts of uses for blockchain technology. The mayor of Miami is a serious fan of cryptocurrencies.

FTX’s Mercedes F1 Ethereum NFTs Come With a Piece of the Actual Car
You can own part of Lewis Hamilton’s or George Russell’s F1 car with FTX’s NFTs for next weekend’s Miami Grand Prix.
In brief
FTX and F1 team Mercedes-AMG Petronas will release NFTs in both free-to-claim and premium auction formats.
Two of the auctioned Ethereum NFTs will be paired with the physical rear wing from Mercedes’ drivers cars at the Miami Grand Prix.
Formula One’s inaugural Miami Grand Prix is set to take place next weekend, and given Miami’s rising crypto city status, it’s no surprise to hear that NFTs will be involved. In this case, the offering isn’t entirely digital—some NFTs come with a piece of a real F1 car too.
.........

It was in Miami where the idea of El Salvador getting chummy with Bitcoin and the personalities related to Bitcoin all happened. I'm not exactly a big fan myself of that kind of adoption, but I will concede that at some point, any kind of utility and progress with Bitcoin, good or bad, will at the very least help it mature even more than it already has (I mean, surely at some point lessons from the rather poor attempt at making Bitcoin legal tender in a fragile economy will help any other would-be adopter plan better).

Back to point though, NFTs already big in F1 no?

By the way, last week bitcoin was legalized by laws in Panama (population ~ 4M people) and in the Central African Republic (population ~ 5M people). The governments of these countries probably looked at El Salvador and also decided to legalize bitcoin.

If we talk about the spread of NFT and the involvement of F1 racing in this technology, then the first contracts were Red Bull with the Tezos cryptocurrency.
They also offered to buy NFT-pictures with individual elements of the Red Bull car and thus form a picture with the car itself. By the way, it was not so cheap to assemble a car like that. I think the Austrian team Red bull somehow even made money on such a hobby of NFT fans and F1 fans .

I was reading that Ferrari would bring to Miami even more power in its engine since they consider it reliable to increase it after testing it for 4 races.
In addition to changing several components of the hybrid engine with improvements in the MGU-K, the batteries and their controller.

This can make more difference between they and the rest of the field.

I had read about progress in their engine for Barcellona.

Ferrari is super strong in slow turns where the traction is important. They are working on top speed and porposing.

Thanks @delfastTions for the post about how Miami is the most crypto-friendly city in the states since they had hosted the bitcoin conference there a couple of weeks ago and the mayor also put up a statue to commemorate the occasion shown here:

Didn't know about the Mercedes partnership with FTX giving those kind of NFTs so it makes it alot more interesting the way they are distributing them for sure.

I'll help you a little.
And there aren't many F1 drivers worth watching. Here is their list. The number next to the last name is the number of points they scored after racing in Italy on April 24th. Well, then it is very easy to follow their achievements.

Cool, thanks, but that's easy to find/follow. Media obviously will follow the top drivers but it might be cool also to follow a developing driver from his start to end. Tsunoda obviously is in the RB feeder team, so any media highlight is probably also done by RB but I felt a nice vibe from him, terribly young but Tauri seem to have faith in him, and maybe apart from following the pros, could be nice to follow the journey of someone up and coming.

Hard to identify that even when watching the races...

Having both Ferrari's not finishing the race in Italy really set them back, but not by much with a quick headstart for the first couple of races.
It will be different for the race in the Miami grand prix with a whole new track.

Yeah, I'd love to see ferrari take revenge in usa and maybe in some future races. The story that happened in Italy is just an accidental and sad coincidence.
But the Ferrari cars themselves seem to be in very good condition and balanced now. Unlike the same Mercedes, where there are clearly problems. But, let's see, is there like a new track in Miami?
And I think a lot of F1 fans are betting on Ferrari for revenge.

Thanks for the update on the driver's points on the current leaderboard.

^I'd put Hamilton in for a surprise win one of these coming races, could be worth the odds actually.

Quote from: rdbase on April 25, 2022, 06:14:17 PM

Yeah, good thing you didn't listen to anyone's advice on your picks because you got first on the leaderboard for the Italian grand prix.
Nice one!
I don't know much about Alpha Tauri except the drivers but nothing on their performance as I never put them on my top 15 spots.

Indeed, it's a nice feeling to be benefactor of dumb luck / beginner's luck. Almost more satisfying that getting picks right for sports you're supposed to know shit about!

Tauri's just very appealing for me because of Tsunoda -- actually saw a series on him last year or year before? Aggressive little guy (literally even) but absolutely looking like he's in it for fun. And I'm kind of waiting for Gasly to avenge his RB demotion.

You could say I don't know much about the sport but I don't mind following the personalities (different rather from football where it's a team thing).
