How did they sacrifice Monaco? Still on the calendar, as hyped as ever, no?
Not sure I watched the same Vegas race as you, but beyond some first-race growing pains (quite embarrassing in some cases), it seemed like a huge success to me! Not a typical street circuit, incredibly high number of overtakes! It's a great track to drive on PS5 F1 2023...
But I still prefer Spa or Monaco.
Not every race, Ferrari and maybe McLaren might eke out a win or two, but that's it.
if 2024 is anything like 2023...I'll just see you all in 2026 lol.
Good afternoon,
Yes, monaco Is still on the calendar at least for the moment. And yes, they are willing to sacrify this race. Iam from Monaco, When the time came to renegotiate the contract, I can tell you it wasn't a walk in the parc. Basically the Prince had to get involved.
Now regarding Las Vegas or Azerbaijan, I don't have a particular issue with these ' new' race track. I liked watching the race. Iam.just wondering if Formula one is becoming a circus .
Everybody needs to quit talking about Max.
Did you feel the same about Schumacher in 2001? Hamilton in 2017...?
While a dominating driver/car/team combination can take away some of the uncertainty in who might win the championship, watching the best-of-the-best succeed during their prime is fun in and of itself, for me at least.
It鈥檚 a team sport, and Max is in the best team...
Agreed.
2000-2002: "It's a team sport, and <Michael> is on the best team..."
2018-2020: "It's a team sport, and <Lewis> is on the best team..."
No driver wins without being in a great car on a top team. Barichello, Bottas and Perez are proof that a great car and top team don't guarantee a Championship for every driver. The best drivers have something special that gives them an edge, and helps them get the most of the car's potential and execute consistently and repeatably. What's true of Max is true of the other greats, and what was true of them is true of Max.
No we don鈥檛 agree. Ferrari was not the best team and didn鈥檛 win the constructors in 2000. 2001 probably equal with McLaren. By 2002 I would agree they had the best car.
Even in Spa, in the middle of no where, traffic is jammed for an 100 000 people to get the driver's helicopters to take off... It's a circus every where now 馃榾 The F1 can't live long these days only with old circuits with no parking and mud. Need both world.
But I still prefer Spa or Monaco.
