I get that they're the title sponsor now, but that's just overkill. 
There's one on the back as well!

Random thought:
I suspect that Alpine will leave F1 by ‘27 or ‘28. They’re a rudderless ship with no clear path and incompetent leadership. I just can’t see Renault continuing to pour money into something that makes them look so incompetent.
F1 could take the opportunity to turn that team into a junior/feeder team where there’s either no cost cap applied to the team or a generous one that’s reasonably higher than the cap applied to the rest of the grid with the caveat that the drivers for said team cannot have more than 3 years of experience or their experience cannot exceed a certain amount of Grand Prix started.
[It would not be a situation where Red Bull or Mercedes could insert their junior drivers into the new team’s program.]
This would take winning the F2 championship from nearly pointless, to the massive win that it’s supposed to be and create a pathway for more young drivers to the grid.
It could also be a good platform for young engineers to make a name for themselves in the sport.
Funding wise, I think F1 could expand their revenue sharing to make this even better for the grid as a whole. Title sponsors like Rolex, MSC etc could also contribute to make this possible. And maybe if it went well they could even lure an additional engine manufacturer like Hyundai, Toyota, or even Porsche.

“Haas driver Nico Hülkenberg is set to drive for Audi in 2026. This means that one of the two places would be taken, reports Sport1. Audi is said to be offering Hülkenberg a 3-year contract, but there is no official statement yet.”

Come back to McLaren, Adrian!
Probably Ferrari, Merc or Aston.

Yes. I don’t want to watch races 5 days after the fact.

I can’t see Adrian hating Christian so much that he ends his contract, forfeits $20M+ and jumps in bed with Lance Stroll.
It has to be Ferrari.

I DVR them on YouTube TV because it’s rare I watch them live. I have it mainly for the library because I’m a newer fan.

I also almost always watch the replay… but it’s almost always on Sunday or Monday. Watching the race on Friday afterwards isn’t something I’m that interested in.

With the Chinese GP staying on the calendar I can see them keeping Zhou to partner with Nico.

About $500 per ticket in the “beach” grandstand for all three days. I got 2 for me and my girl so $1000 total. F1 is the only sport my girl enjoys so we’ll have a great time. It’s fun to be out there and soak it all in.
