I just had the chance to watch Brawn: The Impossible Formula 1 Story on Hulu and I have forgiven Hulu.

If you haven't watched this yet it is must see TV.



Jenson Button
Rubens Barrichello
Ross Brawn
Nick Fry
Some of my F1 hero's and Keanu Reeves as a presenter is perfect.
Very candid interviews and great race footage. All I could do to keep from Binge watching.

This looks interesting as anything with Brawn in it would be. I've never heard of Hulu but found out I have to subscribe to...Disney Plus for it??
I think I'll wait for the DVD lol

Probably won't be as that cold as some are predicting, FP1 in 20 hours will give an insight in how far teams will reduce wing downforce for the straight to get decent pace.
Scott explains the gamble teams must get right.

"99% show, and 1% sporting event." - - - Max Verstappen

"Max Verstappen was predictably uninspired by Wednesday’s glittering Las Vegas GP opening ceremony, insisting he felt “like a clown” during the showy presentation."

"Charles Leclerc has admitted he doesn't share Max Verstappen's criticism over the show-like atmosphere surrounding the Las Vegas Grand Prix."

Leclerc has pointed out that such displays can help bring new fans to the sport.

"It's a lot, but I think if you don't do that here, you don't do that anywhere."

Formula One is no longer about the best drivers racing for wins or an engineering competition for constructors but now a automotive entertainment business for the masses.
It's Liberty Media not Liberty racing that owns Formula One
It's Penske Entertainment Corp not Penske Racing. that owns Indy Car and tracks.

It can be both. They clearly want to make money, I've been inside (one of) Maffei's house. Liberty is a for profit organization, hands down.

It seems like it's just the US races being made into ridiculous entertainment shows as they try to draw new fans in.
