DRS Detection Zone 1 is in the wrong place, it should be before corner 3, that way they get the nod they've got it, can follow a little bit further behind then go for it as they come out of corner 7. DRS Detection Zone 2 should be before corner 12. Is this the track where somebody set the fastest pole lap going over the line backwards/sideways as they worked out that was the quickest way, maybe I've misremembered but seems like a Schumacher thing.

Several cars with all four wheels off the track during qualifying🤔 and Grosjean has crashed yet again !

Not seen the race, but after watching qualifying I suspect a frantic 2 lap start & then back to boring processional, there's nowhere on the track that invites overtaking, watch me be completely wrong & it's a pre Monaco race

Well I was sort of right, frantic start then not much happening other than Vettel coming through the field, shame Bottas wasn't as forceful unless he had more damage. Interesting that Ferrari allowed Kimi through, maybe they knew Seb would have to stop again & it was better for the manufacturers championship

I watched the highlights package last night.
Why the hell was it on at 10:15?? Channel 4 scheduling is as bad as the presenter of the programme! No chance of recording and watching a little later to fast forward through the constant adverts and the inane presentation of Jones the Hemorrhoid.

I had long planned to go to the Spanish gp next year with a friend, but just discovered that it clashes with my friends father's 90th birthday, so now looking at the French gp (both are within a few hours drive of where I live). The plan is to do the whole Thursday to Sunday and hopefully camping at the circuit with my old camper van. Unfortunately as yet no tickets or information is available and I wondered if anyone here had any experience from this year. Quite a few reviews I have read were good for the track but bad for access, but hopefully that will not be a problem if camping on site. Dave
