KMag and Haas will be on the podium at least once this year. What a sea change from 2021.

Eat all the dicks, Daniel Ricciardo.
Overrated clown. Just pinched Sainz off in that chicane and ended his race immediately. Complete trash move and I'm really not sure why the race stewards didn't penalize him for it. |

Looked like he just lost a little control coming off the wet curb. I didn't see anything intentional about it. Unfortunate, but not dirty. Braking was a key to this race for a lot of drivers, several went off. I do feel bad for Sainz and Alonso (getting tapped by MSC sucked) though, they've both had pretty unlucky starts to the season and obviously have the pace in their vehicles to do better.

Just WAY too impatient and aggressive. He was lucky to get it back to 6th. With the impact DRS showed in the sprint down the main stretch, I have no earthly idea why he didn't just bide his time until he had an opening and DRS. He'd have coasted to 2nd. If Tsunoda ever grows up a bit and gets a big boy drive under him, he's gonna be a handful some day. That kid has really good pace. I'd be fascinated to see what he could do in a McLaren alongside Norris. |

I don't know the rationale for gravel that sinks a car like quicksand. Think it's a shame Sainz couldn't re-enter the race.

Ricciardo getting to continue because he's the one that punted Sainz around backwards to get stuck while he was able to continue forward through the gravel trap just doesn't make a lot of sense. But I'm also just kindof a pissed off Ferrari fan right now so there's that... |

I actually like the grit used at a couple of tracks. **** up and go off track and you flatspot the shit outta your tires. Forced to pit, but at least doesn't result in a red car. I know a lot of people complained about it, but I like it better than gravel. Both are pretty unforgiving. Maybe just have a gravel trap the width of a car, then grit. |

I've been watching the first practice in Miami and the track looks pretty tight, turns 13-16 look like they might be a nightmare during qualifying and it's hot. 120 degrees on the track right now.

Heading to Miami in the morning. Will be in Turn 1 North Grandstand. This is a weird track but I’m pumped.
