Just watched the replay, but fucked my day by hearing the news at lunchtime.

Good race. Not for McLaren though...

Fair play Max, deserved this one.

Sky F1 has Quali on Saturday replayed at 9.30 and 13.30. Race is replayed at 09.30 and 15.25 on Sunday

A replay can never match the excitement of a live event.

Aha! Week 2 of the terminal triple takes us to the lush, verdant soccer fields of Qatar, home to numerous World-Cup-standard stadia, and to shifting dunes of tax-free liquid cash, burying deep the graves of luckless construction workers.

Who doesn't love the sporting zest of Qatar?

(I am reliably informed that he closest approximation to correct pronunciation is "cutter". I have been mistakenly pronouncing it "Bungopolis" these several years.)

The UK telly times will be:

Fri 29 Nov
FP1 - 13:30
Sprint Qual - 17:30

Sat 30 Nov
Sprint - 14:00
Qual - 18:00

Sun 1 Dec
Race - 16:00

Interesting factoid: In 2024, Qatar established diplomatic relations with Tonga, thus cementing its role as the diplomatic powerhouse of the Middle-East.

GM/Cadillac are in.

Andretti not so much.

The move comes after F1 initially rejected the bid which was headed up by Andretti – owned by former F1 driver Michael Andretti, son of 1978 world champion Mario Andretti – earlier this year. The Andretti name has since been dropped from the proposal. And while it is understood that Mario will be handed an ambassadorial role in the project, Michael is no longer involved.
