Quite a driver shuffle since last season.

     :|  It's almost frightening, how quickly the years go by the older you get.  Seems like the last race of '24 just happened.

    I have not found any broadcast listing on the ABC/ESPN suite of broadcasts for tonight's (EDT) FP-3.  At least it is at a civilized hour so I may get lucky real-time.

    Should be a good one.  I’ve been enjoying the most recent season of the F1 Netflix show.

    A great teaser @Botch. Thanks for the post.  Game on this late June.  Meanwhile back at the track, lights out in a bit over two hours.  (DVR) here. 
    Should be some good wheel-to -wheel racing given the course and the opening race.

    The McLarens were the quickest cars on the course. 
    On to Shanghai next weekend.  Separate thread to follow.
