Errors saw Lucas di Grassi end up 20 seconds off the pace and a stunning lap from Oliver Turvey brought his NIO car into Super Pole contention.

  1. Hazel, a suggestion to consider: how about one “build-up” style of article on the Thursday/Friday preceding an FE weekend? Just to get those of us who don’t closely follow FE a little clued into the fact that there’s a race that weekend, and – more importantly – generate interest by helping paint a picture in terms of what challenges/opportunities await the teams and drivers, both for themselves and in the context of the championships.

    1. Hear hear! I just found out there’s a race tonight like less than an hour ago when YouTube’s algorithms recommended me a video of qualifying highlights. Sometimes I’ve found out too late and missed the race.

      I visit F1 Fanatic daily so some kind of a build-up article few days before the event would certainly help.

      1. A preview each week would be good, if nothing else it would let people know it’s on. I follow FE and I still missed the opening round because it was randomly on a Friday.

  2. +3 And the time would help Hazel :)
    Qualifying’s on FoxSports 2 right now, (obviously delayed) next up at 12.30pm West Coast I think (and hope) the race is coming up….

  3. 3 Alexander Sims Mercedes Benz EQ 1’05.848

    I believe Sims drove the BMW Andretti.
