Leigh Diffey didn't bother me. I thought he did a good job. Time will tell if any of the current crew moves to ESPN.

 

Now that's racing, sure miss that sound.

 

From comments I’ve been reading on other sites, I gather that the ESPN broadcast will just be a SKY F1 rebroadcast / simulcast.

Won’t matter to me unless they offer a legal way to stream it. As a cord cutter, I’ve been watching Sky for years, one way or another.

I would happily pay Sky for the privilege of streaming the races, but that’s not an option right now.

 

Anyone know if the rest of the weekend will be wet?

 

Looks like rain here in Ohio.

 

:lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

 

It's Suzuka, isn't it always a wet race? :biggrin5:

 

Thanks there Iggy Pop!:biggrin5:

 

So this is Palmer’s last race of the season, Saintz will be taking his seat at Renault next race, and Kvyat will return to STR.

Man, F1 is weird sometimes.

 

I feel for Joylon, he's had some really terrible luck this season but unfortunately some of the younger guys like Stroll, Verstappen and even Vettel have kept raising the bar, no more 2 or 3 seasons to get up to speed with a backmarker car - you're expected to produce - now - or you will be replaced.

I'm a little surprised they're keeping Kvyat, but I think it may be money that's forcing that decision.

 

Gasley was STR’s backup driver, and he’s already got a seat. Kubica was a possibility, but he’s pitched for Williams.

Also, unrelated, Alonso just picked up a 35 grid place penalty after qualifying 10th, for a PU exchange for a hydraulic leak. The man has no luck.

 

It was an interesting race with some teams gaining strength and others fading a bit.
