I'm more excited to see what kind of fix they can come up with than I am about the Miami GP itself. This 50/50 era though has introduced terms, technology, and concepts I'm just not interested in. The racing dynamic is counter-intuitive and doesn't appeal to my simple petrolhead brain. I really hope they can repair the damage they've inflicted with these new PUs, hopefully they're adjustable enough to get the real racing back. The first step is getting over the ego enough to admit they made a mistake.

Maybe I need to invest more time in learning how changing the 'ramp-down rate' or deployment of batteries from 350kw to 250kw to take longer to deplete MGU-K power, as opposed to increasing 'super-clipping' for recovering 9 megajoules as opposed to a fairly radical 6 megajoules so they can effectively reduce its duration from 10 seconds per lap to 6.....
but its exhausting.
How can you follow a race weekend when you need a masters in electrical engineering to understand how the cars work?
I'd much rather listen to Sam Collins talk about 'sticky-uppy bits' they've changed on Ferrari's wing. -
Do we think this will be enough? I'm hopeful, but skeptical...
It's just hard to enjoy the 'racing' when the PU's battery is running the show.

That was a pretty exciting race! It seems like they fixed a lot of what was wrong with the regs. Good action. Much less like Mario kart

They went motor racing today.
Kimi is looking awfully special. Great race all around!

Max is giving us a masterclass.......
I'm still not a 100% fanboy, but I like him more and more every week........

Is this signalling to Toto or a shot over the Redbull bow?

I’m simultaneously not really a fan, amused by how he acts and what he says and does off the track, and feel privileged to see him drive in different disciplines.
It’s weird but where I sit with him.
