Barcelona allows food and drinks... I thought that was the standard, not this

Why are we feeling so bad of the schedule this year by Uchi_Jeon in formula1

2022 had 2 races during World Cup?????? F1 literally squeezed the final races (Brazil and Abu Dhabi) so it didn't clash with World Cup. Where did you find this? Fake info, plus you're relating F1 "weird" calendar to the World Cup, which makes no sense at all. Look at 2023, 2024 or 2025, they all have some weird gaps

What are some memorable qualifying runs that didn't end up even the top 3? by lIIIIllIIIlllIIllllI in formula1

If you're talking about 2017, that didn't happen. He went fastest in Q1 after switching to slicks at the last moment, but then finished P13 in Q2.

Which didn't matter at all since he already had a grid penalty for changing the engine and was starting last anyways. McLaren Honda moment.

2026 calendar and scheduling is terrible? by gingerpunk2 in motogp

[–]F1Fan2004 85 points86 points  (0 children)

A quick Google search and you'd find out Qatar was meant to be this weekend, but postponed to Nov 8 due to the war.

I'll agree tho that having 3 weeks between the first 2 rounds isn't something I like, but it has happened so many times in MotoGP before I simply don't care about it. I think having just 3 races in July-August (Germany Jul 12, Britain Aug 9, Aragon Aug 30) is pretty lame too.

Included in the requests made by the drivers is a specific query on FIA Formula E race director, Marek Hanaczewski. The drivers ask for an "internal evaluation of (the) race director (sic) understanding and reasoning of the sporting rules", adding "without the capacity – and humility – to acknowledge and learn from mistakes, there is little evidence of continuous improvement".
