Like someone said elsewhere, we now have a 24h red flag and continue tomorrow. This sprint thing takes all the drama and unknown from the actual race, that’s sad…

@paeschli, couldn’t agree more. It could be just a 1 meter wide strip of grass or gravel right after the white line/kerb.

I have another proposal:
1 – Remove all kerbs from the circuit
2 – Put a 1 meter wide strip of grass/gravel outside the white lines all around the track
You’re welcome. :-)

Hi @f1frog, thanks. I use the great Ergast Developer API website. I have a local copy of the database in my laptop and do my more complex queries on it. The Ergast website has qualifying data from 2003 onwards […]

Oops, correction! The above palindromes are for all Q3 times, not only pole positions. The times that were actual pole positions are only two:
1992 Italian Grand Prix 1:22.221 mansell
2021 Emilia Romagna […]
Miguel Bento commented on the post, Two British drivers on the podium for the first time in nine years 5 months ago
That should be an interesting statistic! I did some research and I believe Pole time has been a palindrome on only 16 occasions (since we have times with thousands of seconds):
1981 British Grand […]

Contrary to what is reported, Yuki Tsunoda was not born on this millenium (11 May 2000 is still 20th century, or 1st Millenium).

Maybe that extra cylinder explains Mercedes dominance…

@john-h, what happened there?

So… He slowed down in the yellow sector and was still penalised? What a yoke…

@jerejj, that’s true. However, I have just noticed that DST does not end in the US on this weekend (only one week later). This means that the table in the article lists the GP start time (08:10) wrong in the US. […]

Don’t forget that DST (Daylight Saving Time) ends this weekend in Portugal (and all Europe). From Saturday to Sunday the clock goes one hour back.

I guess it means “a single pit stop” for 3 consecutive races.
