Another thing i noticed in your image is, in turn 5 we are in front of the new sphere of Las Vegas, i hope they dont make any stupid thing that can cause problems in the vision of the drivers, for example putting something really bright. But i think we are gonna see something fun in that sphere, a surprise from the F1.

^^
The only thing I can think of is this track is brand new to all drivers as F1 is making a return back to Las Vegas.
So this race there can be won by anyone because no driver has any experience on it and they have to learn the turns and the zones where they can gain any advantage during the course of the race.

Yes, I only noticed it when you mentioned it actually!
That straight away is the entire length of the entire track so it will be fun to watch which cars will have the most power so to turn into a shuttle and see how fast their engines can go!

It was really a fun watch actually these two gave the audience a spectacular race for sure it was like racing to win this race, but we all know it was racing just to get to the Podium, and for sure Sergio Perez didn't need to be ashamed because he has lost the podium the important part here is they both have an amazing race and both of them have so much fun about it I think that is the essence on F1 that many are not experiencing anymore the thrill on who will win the race, and both drivers have shown true heart and skill and the Experience of Fernando Alonso surely prevailed in this race, here is the video for the ones that haven't seen their toe to toe performance,

It is really hopeless to say that Max Verstappen is not going to win a race as that is 1 is to 10 that is happening, as Max Verstappen is pretty much unstoppable for the time being for sure I truly believe that the dominance of Max Verstappen is not stopping anytime sooner, the young man is just keeps on getting great in his every race, so yeah always predict that he will end up winning the race for sure,

 

What a ""turn"" is the 13º hahaha, man is gonna be a very very long straight, so some teams with good top speed are gonna be a headache. I can see Alpine with amazing top speeds or Williams being a problem for the big teams in that straight. DRS is gonna be very important, but i dont know how the teams are gonna set the cars.

For the next race it is a new track for these drivers:


Here is a local news broadcast talking about it's final completion stages of construction:

Agree in this one, is a nonsense to bet against Max this season i tried it a couples of time but its impossible, if you see also he didnt retire in any race, he only end 5 in Singapore being his worst race, and in a few he ended second behind Perez at the start of the season.

I did watch it and it was really unlucky of him and I saw how he lost control of his grip and just continued to the barriers and it was a wreck. It was really hard for him probably because he never even showed his skills yet during the race.

A lot has happened and I think it's probably the worst thing that happened to him this season.

Betting against him is a mistake. Had Hamilton doing something on this track but he didn't get even a podium place.
Alonso looked like a brand new driver with his performance in getting second place and defending it in the very last seconds of the race to pull out another podium place just like he did at the beginning of the season.
Even Stroll managed to get some points for Aston Martin.

The worst was Ferrari with their first driver Leclerc having issues even before the race started.
It was during the formation lap!

It seems he has the worst luck with his car and his team this entire season.

The rivalry between Perez and Alonso in the last moments was really lovely. It made me remember Perez's incredible defending against Hamilton in 2021 with the aim of helping Verstappen get closer to them. This time Perez was hunted with his own move by Alonso.    Because Alonso was really amazing about staying ahead of him by a small gap at the end of the race.

There was only a difference like 0.05 seconds at the end. After Perez overtook him on the start straight I wasn't expecting Alonso to fight back that strong. Experience and being one of the most talented drivers on the grid really make difference. Alonso is 42 years old but his reflexes are still great.

For sure I agree with you if Sergio Perez was not in the RB19 then that would be easy for Fernando Alonso but for sure if they could switch cars I bet Fernando Alonso would go straight to the finish line with Max Verstappen if given a chance to get into one of the RB19, but for sure Red Bull will not offer the seat into a nearly retiring driver, but what can I say Fernando Alonso is that genuine of a driver that anybody could want him for sure, and yeah I like Fernando Alonso more than with Lewis Hamilton,


Lando Norris and McLaren have done a great job so far for this year-ending season, for sure in the next season McLaren will be ready for sure, well right now McLaren is sitting with a sweet 282 points right now while Ferrari is 362 points so sure that is so high points that they will be needing to get into that standing, while they should focus on for Aston Martin to not get their position because Aston Martin is pretty much near with 261 points, for sure the 4th place is a sweet spot,

One thing to notice in the race was the work who made Piastri, with his car damaged and with one lap behind he still race to catch a lot of data about the tyres for the team and to help Lando Norris in the top , and try to make so move to win against RedBull. so i think this deserve to be mention.

Lando Norris definitely did alright, second place and the fastest lap which puts him right next to Alonso and potential for fourth place for the season. There are only two races left, Mclaren will not be reaching to third place, but they are comfortable at fourth, if there were some more races left that could be possible but with 2 races left, ferrari looks comfortable at third. Norris could pass Alonson ext race up, but I highly doubt that he will have a chance to go past Hamilton, about 30 points difference, not impossible if Hamilton has days like this for two in a row and Norris finishes podium in both, but I would say its unlikely to see him finish third. Fourth for Norris seems more likely, just as fourth is likely for Mclaren.

If there was another driver other than alonso in front of perez, he would have passed in 3 laps, but this is what happens when the most unlucky driver in history for me is alonso, who deserves at least 5 championships. Where he took the corners, charging the battery and cooking the red bull car softly like a potato in the embers was very clever. Perez pulled the difference up to 0.9 for a while, and around the 65th lap. In 2021, we are talking about the best defensive man of the grid who gave nightmares to the most in-form Mercedes and hamilton of the period for 10 laps. Perez gave a very good message for the future, he had a very good pace for the team.

For sure Qualifying was exciting as the rain was about to drop it became a sudden night race on the Q3 as Max Verstappen was still in 1st place when the Race did not continue because of bad weather for this race as it was a red flag for this event after the rain had poured down and so the F1 Sao Paulo Grand Prix has commenced to stop as they are readying for the Sprint Shootout next

Actually, Lando Norris is looking sharp in this Sao Paulo Grand Prix smoothly traversing into a great driver for the McLaren, and the Main Race the fight between Norris and Verstappen is happening from start to finish of the Sao Paulo Grand Prix,


Actually, he was talking about the Hydraulics issue on the radio, it was not fair if you lost to something and it wasn't really your fault the car is not really responding correctly for sure the Mechanics need to do their job properly and there is no need for major errors next time,


The Frustration of Charles Leclerc when he is on the radio as the Race is only starting he has slipped into the wall and so the race will need to be restarted but at the start of the race without Leclerc another incident occurs this time Alexander Albon and Kevin Magnussen have crashed and the wheel is bouncing on the track and so the race will need to be restarted again because of the safety car,

And as pretty much Max Verstappen and Lando Norris were fighting for the 1st place was also great to see, Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton, and Sergio Perez was really getting this on if they can make something in passing it through, but again Max Verstappen still ended winning this Sao Paulo Grand Prix,

Fight between Alonso and Perez was epic. At first it looked that Perez have no chance to overtake as he alread was barely in DRS zone. But he managed it. Alonso counter attack wasn't less impressive. And then on finish line Perez almost reached Fernando. I nstand flashbacks to 2019 and fight between Lewis and Gasly on final lap.
When I saw Leclerc crashed on warm-up, first I thought how it's even possible on dry track and perfect conditions. But if it was car failure, there is no reason to blame him
And Mercedes, there is nothing positive that we can say about their race today.

I was expecting much more race to see today, but ended up being a normal race, the only BIG move was the alst one made by Alonso, what a move made b y him. COngratulation to Lando Norris and Mcclaren because they really have good pace, they only not win because MV exists.

And mercedes... what a disaster today. Ferrari, nothing to say.

I have a feeling this race will be insane to watch and I had to place a bet on this one against Max because I don't think he will win in Brazil , especially that he always struggled here in the last years.

I also feel bad for Charles but as far as I understood he had some brake issues or he simple made a rookie mistake that will cost Ferrari mega important points...

This is the official look of the starting grid after some grid penalties given Russell, Ocon and Gasly. They were penalties for impeding their competitors in the qualifying session.

Russell's penalty was a big help for Norris to get right behind Hamilton. I don't think that Hamilton would like that at all while Norris has a very solid race pace. We saw that in the sprint race previously. I hope that my podium in the pool would come true but I'm really nervous about it.    It is mostly dependent on Norris' performance.

Never seen scenes like that during an F1 race even if it was at the end of qualifying (Q3) and it was the correct call to make in stopping it with 4:19 left to go in the session.

Had Max to be on pole today so good they stopped it there.
Have Hamilton to win today and get fastest lap so we will see how it goes in the next two hours when the final race begins.

The ones which looked really good with how their cars are handling during the sprint race are Norris and Russell.
Can't see the Ferrari cars getting anything higher than P5 or P6 from the way the other cars are performing on the track.
A few of them went off track. Piastri and Stroll from what I remember of the sprint races yesterday.

For the first time in history a driver gets more points than 500 during a single season and for this I really appreciate Max for his achievement and with 2 races to go , he could go almost to 600 points and I'm sure this record he just settle , it will last for a very very long time period , maybe even decades.
