Funny I chose to read this thread right after reading the Colon Blow thread. New low for GA?

That was a fun ending. Same track next week, same tire strategy?

The future is shorthanded, not necessarily small.

Albon didn't look average today. Even Vettel out qualified him.

Vettel, will be happy to move up to a faster car sooner.

I think I had that Lotus when i was a kid!

My favorite color, but I'm prejudice of course. As for lifelines: In this first pic, my wife and I are practicing social distancing by double handing in our Wednesday beer can series. Outside of Wednesday nights, I single hand a lot and the lifelines just give me a level a comfort when I'm running around the deck. Age is a factor: we are not young Solo in this pic from a couple of years ago. Love this boat!

Looks like the shit hit the fan!

Different year, but my number was 96, I was called for my physical, which I passed. Waiting for the official notice to report, when... The draft ended! Drinking age was 18 back then, so all of the drinking was "legal". I remember on the bus ride back from the physical, the driver feeling sorry for us stopped at a liquor store and we all got out and bought a bottle (or two) of anything. When the bus dropped us off, we were poured out.

Oh Great, Ferrari side by side on the starting grid. This won't end well.

I think the trophy bots were driven better than the two Ferraris.

Our club will occasionally run gutter races: take 2 rain gutters, block the ends, fill them with water, give each team a foam block, a stick, a piece of paper, and an hour to design, shape and build their boat. You put your boat in the gutter and you provide the wind. Heats of two, keep racing till you have a champion! We have run these as evening entertainment (Chubb Junior National Championships, the kids loved it) or a filler activity when races were cancelled. Once during a MAISA regatta, Army had a team, never did get to see if they could sail or not, but they were not lacking for hot air because they easily won the gutter regatta. Anyway: Some of those gutter race boats had better looking hulls then this:

Flying toasters screen saver., that's a blast from the past!

That was fun! Who would have thought that McLaren would be second in the Constructor's standings. If this season only goes 8 races...

2021 line up (for now, could change at any moment). Vettel No ride. Ferrari: Carlos Sainz (replacing Vettel) and Leclerc McLaren: Daniel Ricciardo (replacing Sainz) with Norris. Renault: Open seat, hot rumor is Fernando Alonso may return. Many unsigned (contracts that expire in 2020) seats, most notably at Mercedes with both Hamilton's and Bottas' contracts up the end of this year. By Monday (day after the first race) this may all change.
