Coming out this morning that Bahrain will be moved to Malaysia and become known as the Formula 1 Gulf Air Bahrain Gran Prix in Malaysia.

I heard there is still a chance at one more race being added as well as Qatar and Abu Dhabi will likely be cancelled because of Trump's War. MBS and F1 would like to not dip below 22 races.

Bortoleto took the wind out of the sails of the race for 2nd by ignoring the blue flags. Probably cost Kimi and Lewis three seconds after it's all said and done.

Glad the F1 camera crew decided to show the battle for the last couple points spots between Racing Bulls and Audi.

Saw a lot of complaints that the last few weeks we were robbed of good racing action mid field to watch follow the leader nothingness instead.

Wasn't it Charles that locked himself into pole in Monaco a few years back by crashing in Q3 after he had P1 secured?

Yes. Perez, too, one year, if you listen to Verstappen's version of the story. LOL

Expect one of them to be Imola, possibly even the finale, despite concerns about weather that time of year.

Portimao is out, from what I read. They are doing some major construction of the track's infrastructure, and they said they don't want to interrupt it, as they want to get it done before winter. I guess there are some contracts for next season that would be in jeopardy if it's not done.

I don't know who else they can get, as doubling up possibilities at Las Vegas or Baku, which was discussed, proved to not be viable. Though, if they add Imola, that gets them to 22 if the final Middle Eastern races get cancelled, now that Malayisa Bahrain is on.
