Time to gear up for the new season of F1.
NBC lost their contract/rights to brodcast F1 in the USA and most of the races have been picked up by ESPN. Note channel changes coming. :No idea who hte announces/commenters will be yet. And it's all up in the air for 2019:
F1 & TV rights - what does the future hold?

Another F1 tradition bites the dust......https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/f...-2018-1000912/
The beginning of the end. I wonder how long before the Tour de France follows suit and gets rid of the podium hoes?
It's definitely time-it's a very 50's-ish tradition.

I don't really care. I'm interested in the racing.

Enough of that, it was giving me a headache.
I'd be willing to give up the GGs (Grid Girls) if they'd show at least one car going through every technical check that is done to all cars every race weekend.
We've seen one car weighed in 20 years so far. How about showing us how they measure wings for compliance, test tyre pressures, show fuel composition specs, ...
Some real racing stuff (aka RRS).

Well, here is it. Dropping "Grid Girls" [models] and replacing them with "Grid Kids".
Going for the Duggar Family viewer population?

The grid girls have been a vanishing item for awhile. About the only time you saw them was on the podium and during Buxtons prerace review. I find the idea of grid kids wrong on many levels. It was fine at the end of the season with Fillepes son but the Mexican prerace was just absolutely boring. It was worse than all the Mercedes commercials.
Looks like someone REALLY likes Alonzo:

I'm not sure how much the early reveals really catch the work being done, other than gross generalities.
Even early testing keeps the real goods under wraps.

Does this mean you are going to paint the red car Mike?
Ferrari's 2018 cars will be painted a deeper shade of red than usual. That is the claim of Giorgio Terruzzi, a well-connected Italian journalist writing for Corriere della Sera newspaper.
The report came as Red Bull launched its new car on Monday, featuring a striking temporary livery that will likely be replaced by next week in Barcelona. Still, Daniel Ricciardo said: "The car looked very cool today."
As for the new Ferrari, Terruzzi said the tone of red is expected to be darker, thanks in part to the departure of sponsor Santander. He said the 2018 livery, to also feature less white, is similar to the shade of red seen on the 312 car of 1969.
Do a "red change" on the SVO?? Probably not.Originally Posted by Raven855
I wonder if I can get my new Tesla 3 in the new Ferrari color? All new car colors other than black cost an extra $5K. I wonder if they will do custom reds?

Interesting intro overview of the new front aero designs. http://www.skysports.com/f1/news/125...-cars-analysed
McLaren is in bad shape, what a shame.
Three horse race, again, this year. With Mercedes as the heavy favorite.

Switch Ferrari and Red Bull. Do the same for McLaren and Force India.
Sad to see how far Williams has fallen.

This reminded me of an old joke. A professor walked into his class on Sex education and asked a question, Alright how many of you have sex more than once a day? A lot of the class raised their hands. Three to four times a week? More hands went up. 2 to 3 times a week? More hands. Once a week? Once every 2 weeeks? More hands up? Once a month? Every other month? All hands but one guy? Once every 3 to 4 months? Nothing. Once every 6 months? Nothing. Once a Year? Finally the guy shots up his hand and is frantically waving it! The professor asks him, Why are you so happy with once a year? A guy is hopping around excitedly screaming Tonight’s the night! Tonight’s the night!
