2026 Motorsports Season

F-1 Austrian GP this weekend.
Might be fun to watch, teams are figureing out cars
not sure who will be at the top this weekend.

Be busy day tomorrow and Sat, but should see race Sunday

Potential for it to be a good race. I like the track, but hot weather may cause some havoc for teams. Batteries don't like heat it seems..
At least three teams seem to be in similar classes for the lead of the pack, and another 3, or maybe even 4 teams that are good midpack competitors. I would think Audi will be really wanting to place well at this track, as it's close to home.

I'm wondering if they through Indy Driver Palou into an F1 car, how long before he would be beating Lance Stroll..?

Seriously though, this guy is good, real good. I can't believe McLaren hasn't put him in an F2 or F3 car at minimum by now..

Where has Zack Brown been? I don't see him at the last several F1 events or any Indy events..very odd...

Some interesting moments during the Austria GP race. A few good skirmish's between a few drivers, although they never lasted long. A few laps longer race and it could have been really exciting, with Antonelli gaining on Max the way he was. Not that Max would let Kimi pass, but it would have been fun to watch him try. The Sky pundits went on about the "only 3 seconds separating 1st and 3rd place". I guess that is special in F1, but many venues of racing the finishes are a lot closer than that.

The controversy's are already starting to swirl, with talk of Max possibly looking for a new team. He is sure taking it hard not being the winner like he used to be, or is it actually his Dad that is the most frustrated? Max has never seemed too excited/upset when interviewed about his success, or lack of it this year. Seems his dad plays a bigger role. I can't believe there is talk of Yuki Tsunoda taking Ocon's seat next year. Surely there must be some up and comer that may be a better choice? Some of these newer rookie F1 young guns have already proven to be better than Yuki. Ocon has had a 10 year shot at F1, and although he has had his moments, overall he seems to be a mid-pack driver. Like any driver though, perhaps a seat in a well moneyed, faster team, he could prove his worth. Yuki did have a shot at that type of team, and still didn't do well. I think there currently is a few young drivers who are better than the team they drive for. I'd love to see them in a fast car.

Yukie brings 25 to 50 million in sponsorship

Racing has been decent,

I think Max put an end last week to all the speculation
saying he is staying with redbull.
But its early yet and its F-1

Apparently there may be a diver that is associated with Toyota in some way that may be a candidate for Ocon's seat. He may bring more money. Haas can certainly use more $$

British Grand Prix this weekend!
I always look forward to this event, Silverstone is a great track, and unpredictable weather can make it one of the most exciting F1 races on the calendar. Plus the Sprint race gets things rolling early for the event.
.

Sadly I think Silverstone is one of a few tracks
that are going to show how bad these engnines are.
With long straights and historically fast turns
not many places for the engines to harvest energy.

I hope I am wrong, as silverstone is norammly a must see race.
