Danny Rick could go to someone else, have about the same results and pocket 21M. Kind of a no brainer especially now that he knows there is the "we want you out" vibe at McLaren..

Edit: yeah you are right, he could drive for williams next season and they could pay him 100 million peanuts, but he is still getting 21mil next year.

Not really, any money he takes on another contract if he drives in 23', he has to pay back to Mclaren. He would be better off sitting out next year and taking the money. He is something like the 5th highest payed driver on the grid and due even more for 23'.

Welcome to Nascar, Kimi, where it is a real life open lobby.

Dude was top 10 until someone spun him out.

He did lol. He actually liked it. About the only time in my life that I've watched, or looked forward to a NASCAR race. He did pretty good.

He really seemed like he was having a great time. Hopefully he continues to do some more races.

I actually really like Nascar for the things I don't like about F1, action.

It's official, Danny Ric out at the end of the year.

Hope Spa is a good race over the mess from last year.


This guy nails so many of the voices/mannerisms so well.

Spa sure is a nice looking track.
Both Leclerc & Max have taken grid penalties due to power unit changes.
Will be a good race to watch them move up trough the pack.

Audi announcing their return to F1 with Sauber in 2024.


In local news Laurence Stroll has pawned off his LCMT to the same group who had bought up his Ferrari dealership a few years ago.
That explained why a few races were cancelled this summer.

The fall race is still on and usually brings in much racers & spectators.

I saw both things pop up this morning but didn't get to read it. Wonder if we will see a Merc win with Max and Charles starting in the back. They sure are up Ferrari's behind in the constructer's championship.

I saw that Sauber announced their split with Alfa after 23' and figured Audi would be moving in. Hopefully Vasseur stays on, I like him as a team principal. He seems to do a decent job of running the team.

Spa, Interlagos, and Silverstone are by far my favorite tracks. I really wish they kept it forever, seems like we're losing actual racetracks to street tracks.

At the moment: Max, Charles, Lando, Vatteri, Ocon and Mick start from the back at Spa.
