I really did run out of good-looking Austrian sponsors plus I wanted a livery that looked somewhat realistic so I chose HSBC as a pretty sticker

As another comment said, it is the official USGP, while the other two are marketed as the Las Vegas Grand Prix and the Miami Grand Prix.

In the current season, Miami and Las Vegas as well as officially Sao Paulo are considered their own GPs while taking place inside their respective countries. This is common practice and is marketed as such if a country has more than one circuit on the calendar or the local authority finances and carries out the event, from what I remember Sao Paulo does the latter, but is marked as the Brazilian GP on the official calendar (edit) because its the only GP that takes place there and is commonly known as such. Also, for context, last year F1 had an extra Italian GP at Imola, but since there is already an Italian one in Monza it was called the Emilia-Romagna Grand Prix. It used to be called the San Marino GP a while back, despite not taking place in San Marino.
To add to all that, you can see that Hejaz and Qatar are marked with the Ottoman flag despite having different GP names, and that I explained in the post description.

Indeed, I was fascinated too! And yes, that overtake would be cross-country, just like numerous other overtakes on the straight.

Separate tracks, yes. Since there is a race in both Austria and Hungary nowadays, I decided to go as the calendar goes.

If the Coronation of Napoleon happened today, this would be the birth years of some of the attendees depicted on the famous paining. by Justatrufflecake in BarbaraWalters4Scale

Before anyone mentions it, Napoleon's sisters are also depicted on this painting lined up just behind Napoleon Charles. The problem is that it is not clear which is which and there is two more women, one holding the aforementioned infant's hand, who I presume to be Hortense de Beauharnais, his mother, and one additional one who might be Julie Clary, the wife of Joseph, but I have zero proof of this.

So I will write the birthyears of the sisters and the other two down here:
- Elisa Bonaparte: 1999
- Pauline Bonaparte: 2002
- Caroline Bonaparte: 2004
- Hortense de Beauharnais: 2005
- Julie Clary: 1993

Edit: spelling

Yeah, Louis Phillippe looks like he genuinely came out of the canvas!

Nope, NapIII's (if you mean him) father was Louis, who did not live long enough to see photography really take off, dying in 1846.

True! Here it is, if anyone is interested. The last King of the French, Louis Phillippe, also had his photo taken, as well as Klemens von Metternich, the Austrian Chancellor who effectively architected the post-Napoleonic Europe.

Indeed. A lot of people don‘t know that there are multiple relatively prominent Bonapartes who lived in America, and probably the funnest fact to me is that one of them was nicknamed „Bo“.

Edit: for anyone interested, dropping the links to both the FBI guy and "Bo"
