Susie would be a great replacement for DP except for one small detail - her husbandπŸ˜€.

It is Sky - UK - broadcaster that will make the decision. ESPN has no interest in American broadcast crew- it would cost money.

I bet it is Liberty - Commercial Rights Holder - that is keeping her around.

This weekend is not F1 it is a Vegas shit show organized by the F1 commercial rights holder. The best is Monaco, followed by the UK. For something different that is still F1 there is Singapore.

F1 fact of the day: In late 90s the tobacco industry were spending over Β£100 million annually - in today’s US$ that would would be $236 million.

For F1 fans who want a great book on the history of the sport I recommend β€œThe Piranha Club” by Timothy Collins published in 2001. Copies can be found on Amazon US.

If they cannot get two cars ready the Team Principal should leave and I think Frank would be very very upset😬

Last for tonigh😁
After you read about Bernie read about Max Mosley who became FIA President in 1993. He helped Bernie take F1 to the world and made the drivers rich and owners richer. At one time Michael Schumacher who drove for Ferrari was the highest paid athlete in the world.

For those who are new to F1 if you want to understand how it got to its present format check out Wikipedia β€œBernie Ecclestone”. The story of a failed race driver who commercialized F1 and made himself a billionaire. He started the concept of β€œCommercial Rights Holder” - the owner of F1.

I have been following F1 since 1995. For years I went to the race in Montreal. Always wanted to do Monaco but the cost was crazy- in early 2000 found an as for a standing only spot on someone’s balcony - cost $1,700 US$. I passed
