I'll watch the highlights.

This is one of those 'Americanisation' things I can easily live without.

Who's going to watch the F1 75 launch event tonight @ 8pm?

Already have regular Tuesday night plans, otherwise I'd stick it on. I imagine it's bobbins.

It’ll be 90% total blah blah guff and about 10% you’re actually interested in.

It will be cringetastic but I think it it's actually a pretty solid idea and something I'm surprised they haven't done previously. Good way to build up pre-season hype.

Omg this is the definition of cringe so far.

LMFAO

Aston Martin have spent enough money for a Hollywood movie on this..

Been watching a little bit. Not as quite as awful as I had expected, but my expectations were rock bottom.

Wonder if we'll see teams fighting for last place in constructors to get their presentation over with early next year and go home

the designers still not found a way to make that HP sponsorship fit (or the unicredit one tbh either)

Monaco GP will have 2 mandatory pit stops and all 3 compounds will have to be used during the race (unless it rains).

A good change.

Show what a carp race it is.. if they have to force stuff like this just to make it slightly interesting. Still won't be any overtakes - still a total procession - still drivers will luck out on pit stops.. meh!!

The only way would be to make them drive around it in special "monaco" cars.. so that they are more like go-karts.. much smaller and slower speed, so that overtaking is a possibility.. then i'm in!

I'm waiting for them to add ramps and tortoise shells. It's such a rubbish race.
