Ooof, 100 buses canceled today due to driver shortage that were being used for shuttles. Hope that doesn't impact the contract renewal.

Verstappen has ice water in his veins.
Those cars look so cool going through those esses. Turn 1 lap 1 will be fun tomorrow.

That was a great qualifying session. Classic finish with the light rain appearing.
And ha, looks like two F35s just took off bound for College Station.

Trying to figure out how I can join the fam at COTA tomorrow...
Who does ABC coverage for USGP ? Sky crew or ABC/ESPN?
Been enjoying sitting in GA around the S turns. Love seeing the races but the logistics of everything are a joke. Traffic, shuttles, vendors, lack of water, process to get into concert. It's a cluster.

Yeah the extra fans have sent the cluster factor through the roof.
We will probably leave with like 10 to go tomorrow to avoid getting stuck in Lot T.
Today we parked across the street for $20 which worked great.
Today I saw an older road raged man getting shoved back into his truck by a cop who had held up traffic forever due to the race.
There is a remote lot 2.2 miles away from Lot T that has had people jogging along the highway every day as the shuttles are stuck in traffic.
Turn 1 food and beverage has been swamped but just down the hill towards 2 there are plenty of options. I guess people have no idea.
Went today and it was awesome as far as racing goes. The lack of water stations is ridiculous and you can tell they put the bare minimum on purpose to "encourage" people to keep buying the $4 waters from vendors. Traffic is what it is. Not much they can do since the infrastructure around the stadium is exclusively 2 lane country roads. We took the shuttles and it wasn't too bad. Definitely better than the $100+ Uber.
Honestly a good day. Quali was nuts and W Series race was pretty great as well.
I'd say the crowd is huge but not just because of Netflix… this crowd ha CHECO all over it. The Red Bull merch stands were selling out, restocking, selling out until there was no more Saturday stock. McLaren pretty popular as well. Might as well rename the Haas hill the Checo Hill.
I can't imagine how insanely loud the Mexican GP will be.

Just now seeing this. So badass.
Yes. Mexico GP will be absolutely insane. With Checo being in top form with Red Bull right now, it sets up for a home track spectacle comparable to the Dutch GP.
Cloudy cool start this morning with some mist. Traffic coming in from college Station to Lot T was a surpising breeze. No line at the gate at 950a either.
holy LOL - did anyone just see Danny Ric's interview on the pregame show?

Brundle just got a huge snub from Megan Thee Stallion
One of the funniest things I've seen on live tv in a while
Brundle down there not caring and hustling all the celebs
Loved his answer to her handler, "well I can ask her because I just did"

Could've done without whatever Megan thee stallion was wearing. Woof.

She needs to rebrand as Megan Thee Heifer. And she and Serena think way too much of themselves. Beneath them to give an impromptu interview. Microcosm if what is wrong with US "celebs"
Flyover slower than the race

What in gods name was that we trotted out to "sing" the national anthem?

Is the race starting this afternoon or tonight? Geez.
Pretty embarrassing that we use that as the face of United States, singing national anthem in front of the globe. Oh well
Honestly the rest of the world probably thought it was amazing and empowering.
The joke that is the sip band. Lol.
Turn 1 will be interesting- do Max and Lewis behave or not?

I think the hair pin after the back straight is where things get interesting.
Max and Lewis get frustrated after T1 and the S section, Lewis runs max down and then boom
Good grief Max. Were you even watching the lights?
Ric and Norris both all over the place trying to fight Sainz that lap
McLaren and Ferrari fighting hard
What a great start. This course is so cool because you can actually pass
