Welcome

Welcome to the race weekend! Please use this post to discuss all the sessions for this weekends Grand Prix.

I suspect that this post will be a little more hectic with all the action this weekend. We’ll look to change things up after this one if there is a demand for that.

    Track limits having no margin for error is crazy. People say that the drivers are able to stay out of the wall in street tracks but walls are easy to see. Lines on the other hand are difficult to spot from the cockpit. Getting penalties for going mere millimetres over must be sucking the joy out of drivers

      You have to set the limit somewhere. If you give 10cm of margin the drivers will just use them as well and its the same. The only thing they should do is automate the detection. 5 minutes for a decision is crazy.

      If only there were some way to compensate them millions of dollars for their frustration.

      All I want for Christmas is consistent and prompt stewarding. If they enforce track limits more or less every time, either before the lap is over or during the following lap, I’m happy for them to track it down to the millimeter.
