Alright when was that again.....?

[Patrik Marek]

nice! can't wait to see how it goes

hopefully this brings great race / lot of overtaking, so that this could become more of permanent addition

 

[Patrik Marek]

well, if the other race was any indication, Redbulls can be quite strong, but yeah , I think it will be Mercedes yet again

Would love if Albon could win, to make up for the last race

also, it will be super interesting to see how second race will go, if it will be pretty much the same, or very different

Great to see a "new" true track get hosting an event, and not those stupid lifeless mid city tracks. Exept legendary Monaco. Just sad that the cars are also those lifeless muumuu baby carriers..

 

[michelforest]

this year f1 is completely garbage

Why?

 

[5-Card-Major]

Are they expecting heavy rain for tomm? (Saturday). Possible tomm gets postponed 'til Sunday, then race is Monday?

No

Anyone else think that the Williams is the best looking car this year? Also the slowest, tragically - but at least it's a looker!

It does look a lot better than last year, yes. But my favorite as always is the Renault. I have a soft spot for that black and yellow livery.

Word is, if they can’t qualify tomorrow, FP2 times will be used for the starting grid. Race is on Sunday.

Hey Stroll, I know you voted for yourself.

Must be nice to be able to do this "daddy, pretty please can you buy me an f1 team daddy". Good for him, if you can than why not, it's just a little funny in some ways.

Ok, he's not one of the best, but he's no slouch and not likely to do weird stuff like a Grosjean for example.

First of all, awesome news. It should be interesting to see F1 for the first time in Mugello.

But I don't understand the FIA thought process. Two races in the UK in the same circuit while two races in Italy in different circuits? Why not add Donnington or Brands Hatch?

There must be a lot of politics and money involved to take this opportunity for Mugello.

ugly ?

With updates or without

For those wanting Donington, Brands, Mosport, most American tracks except COTA and Indy...you're unlikely to see them as they are not Grade 1 FIA sanctioned tracks. In fact Le Mans long or Bugatti are Grade 2! So it's unlikely you'll see an F1 race there in spite of their glorious past. I know with the North American tracks few if any actually have garages and they have a barrier between where the cars pit and the crew and timing stands are.

As for Mugello, I love the track but there will be yellows because it's basically a golf course with a big paved cart path and plenty of bunkers. Should be fun

 

[davehenrie]

Should a story about Alonso and Renault have a Mclaren as the thumbnail?

 

[ZuneGuy]

Well... if he'll get pole that way, I'm perfectly ok with that.

How can he get pole if he can't stay on track. I distinctly remember seeing the fool driving his car through the grass and hills last week as if he were on some off road excursion. Makes me think that he got lucky getting pole at all.

 

[Terry Rock]

I love this track in AC so it'll be fun to see how the guys get on there with F1 cars.
It has to be one of the most satisfying tracks to get a good lap on...even in simulation.

 

[Nick Hill]

Mugello is an awesome track and I'm all for adding it, but odds are it will be deemed "boring" for a lack of passing. Without exaggeration, you can say that there is not a single turn that meets the criteria for being "pass friendly" with this spec of cars. The main straight is very long, so you'll see some DRS "highway passes", but that may just serve to induce even more rage.

Then again, you can say mostly the same about Hungary, but it's come through with some very good racing as of late, so who knows.

Huzzah

 

[bondyboy]

Mugello was one of my favourite tracks in AC, not sure how good the F1 racing will be though

Was unfortunately closed when I visited a few years ago

He looked like he was struggling today

No grid girls = no interest !

Really? That's your main issue with F1 these days? It's not the lack of overtaking or the rampant costs preventing new entries from joining or the somewhat boring engine note.

No, it's the fact that you don't get to oogle at some random girls for 20 seconds before the beginning of the race. Dude. Put it back in your pants and watch the race or log off and go watch some porn. And maybe get your priorities straight
