    I watched it. Good race with Max winning. Mercedes cooked all their tires. Makes Nascar look like a circus. Albon and Hulkenberg looked good too. Too bad whats happend to Ferrari.

    I also thought it was a good race. I used to go to the Glen in the mid-late 1970's to see the F1 guys race. Sure would like to see them in person again sometime...like maybe from the yacht in the harbor at Monaco!

    I did aero design for F1 in my first job out of college. Max was a young test driver at the time and I remember how talented he was coming through the ranks.

    Crazy world to make a career out of and I’ve moved on but was a fun time working on the design of those cars.

    Now of you ever want to tell any interesting stories or just stories that we'll find interesting even if you don't from your time in F1 I'm sure the BBC would enjoy hearing them.

    There was actually some pretty decent racing, which IMO is fairly unusual. I hate it when pit strategy and tire strategy decide the race, and the winner has a 20 second lead over 2nd. During the post race, it came out that Hulkenberg replaced Perez after Perez tested positive for Covid-19. I watched the delayed 6pm rerun after the WNBA game finished late...and it started during dinner. He put in a nice drive, and would be good to see him take Grojean's Haas seat, IMO.

    The Michigan Cup race was pretty awesome. Hated to see the #2 and #12 crashed out in one wreck. I would guess that Roger Penske might be unhappy over that, but luckily for Brad, he's just signed his contract renewal. Too bad Harvick didn't have a broom to wave around, like KB has always done. Different strokes?
    Don't bother me, I'm screwing for virginity.

    I killed a 12-pack just to watch it die.
