Verstappen fastest in 1st practice. Also a groundhog almost got splattered:

Looks like 50 degrees and wet for final practice & qualifying today.

 

[JHUNSY]

Quite the messy qualifying. Dumb decision by George and Merc to go to slicks. It was never going to work with how wet turns 1 and 2 were.

Nando with a nice front row appearance!

Some of those people must not drive very much if they get all bent out of shape over a ground hog getting hit. I don't try to hit any creatures while driving but damn sometimes it's unavoidable. Hell got a squirrel this weekend.

As low as those cars sit I was surprised there wasn't much visible damage or bump as it went over it.

Isn’t he Canadian too? I can’t imagine there’s a shortage of wildlife on the roads.

He's probably thinking about the pet groundhog he had as a kid and it made him sad.

Good for Gasly but has to be kind of a bummer to sign with JV Red Bull. The top 3 teams are basically locked in.

F1 getting a nice increase in US tv rights:

F1 getting a nice increase in US tv rights:

I hope F1 TV will still be available in the US. Something tells me it won’t be.

Why do you think that?

 

[AgronAlum]

Why do you think that?

Because ESPN wouldn’t be getting their viewership from US consumers streaming through F1 TV. I have a feeling the dollar amount they have to fork out now includes limitations for other services, especially since the article states there will be content streaming on ESPN+ too.

I just really hope they keep it commercial free.

I just really hope they keep it commercial free.

This is my biggest concern followed closely by no more Danica Patrick.
