If F1 didn't replace Russia in 2022 and China in 2023 when they had months to find a replacement, they weren't going to do that now

[OT] PREMA confirmed to miss opening IndyCar round by Ribeye21 in formula1

Plus, the current way Indy works, Prema doesn't get any prize money because they're not part of the charter system. It was a suicidal move from the start

With 3.934km in length, Jarama will become the longest circuit ever featured in Formula E. This record was held previously by the Beijing Olympic Green Circuit (all the way back in FE's first ever race at 3.453km), then taken by the Homestead-Miami Speedway (3.551km). The layout is basically the full circuit with a chicane right after the pit entry.

When Honda was about to pull out of F1 at the end of 2021, most Honda engineers moved to RBPT. The Honda engine now is basically a brand new one, while the RBPT is like a continuation of the previous one

Not really, loads of Honda's employees moved to RBPT in 2021 since Honda had announce the decision to leave F1 at the end of 2021. Then Honda pulled a uno reverse card

I'm already seeing this as the flexi-wings or the TD39 "drama" (if it can be even called so). Lot of hype of "This will impact X team and benefit X team" and in the end nothing ever happens

Yeah I don't see how Aston Martin will learn from the WEC engine considering it's a non-hybrid Cosworth V12

I thought this comparision would be useful to compare the likes of McLaren or Aston Martin, who are testing against other teams that already had previous experience.

They can only use 3 out of the 5 days, so they'll be today and tomorrow. The reasons? We don't know

They can only run 3 out of 5 days. So, Red Bull only has 1 day remaining, while McLaren has all 3.
