KC native · 12:18 AM

Everyone else gets an official thread, so I want one too.

I've seen several people make mentions of F1 on here. So, I'm giving us a thread. No more Speed bs coverage. NBC looks like they are taking it serious and will have some good coverage.

With DVRs now, it's no longer a pain in the ass to watch the races. So watch them and discuss

And if you don't watch F1. You suck. Best racing on the planet.

Dominant performance by the Ferrari drivers, that group made the most of the off-season. Like the new car design this year.

The one GM I've talked with about F1 on the record is Brett Veach, in the second half of this column, when I sat down with him and Mahomes in the same day last season. He makes a Mahomes/Verstappen comp (!). https://t.co/Myz2NChUwV — Kevin Clark (@bykevinclark) March 30, 2022

Didn't know Vegas was in consideration for F1.

That will sell a few tickets.

F1 SUCKS. The engines sound like ****. They ditched fuel strategy. And It's still as boring as ever. Plus the way they screwed Lewis Hamilton last year out of the World championship was a disgrace.

They have fastest cars in the world around a track driven by the best drivers. Pit strategy absolutely plays a part in the races. Some races can be better than others but that's no different than any other form of racing.

They sure don't need gimmicks like adding dirt to the track in order to draw fans.

Long Beach Grand Prix is happening this weekend out your way. The Porsche Cup Races are great entertainment.

Can't agree it "sucks", and the least boring motor sport I know of.

Also can't bring myself to feel sad for Lewis Hamilton or that the sport somehow has ever screwed him. Not even a little.

Congratulations Leclerc.

Yeah, once Max broke down, it wasn't much of a race. And frankly it wasn't going to be either way. Once Leclerc held off Max on the re-start, it was all over but the crying. Nobody really had anything for him.

I was kinda hoping Hamilton and Russell would go at it a bit but there was never anything on the line. And man, Hamilton really has become a whiny bitch. Poor Sainz just had a hell of a bad weekend. Lousy luck in Q3 left him back in 9th on the grid when he was probably a 4th or 5th place car. So Ferrari goes with hards to set up a 1-stop strategy and Sainz just can't get the grip and goes off in like the 2nd lap.

Just rough luck and never really anything he did wrong.

I think Mercedes took the constructors lead back but man, Ferrari is going to be a REALLY tough out this year.
