Since Jon dropped off the forum, I've lost the only other person who follows F1. But this year's driver's championship came down to the final race, with 3 drivers still in contention. That's only happened a few times in modern F1 history.

Do you have any plans to watch the F1 movie on Apple (TV)? It's available on Friday. I got to see it last summer.

Now that I can stream it, I'll probably watch it. I'm happy they went through all the effort to make a good movie, and it got positive reviews. Plus, they used Lewis Hamilton as an expert contributor.

Like I said previously, even though it's a movie about F1, and I'm an F1 fan, I don't think I'm the target audience. Because the technology they already have to cover the races on TV is so good, I'm not really looking to experience that for the first time. It's kind-of got a Rocky type story, so anyone who's interested in that, would probably like the movie.

I'm going to check out the Canadian F1 race on Apple, the Miami race went pretty fast and I was shocked to see that car spin around and crash near the end.

Then the other guys: The Indy 500 is on Fox around the same time as the F1. I haven't watched the Indy in over twenty years. I might check out some of that too.

I have the time today

The sprint race was yesterday. I saw that, sprint qualifying (Friday), and race qualifying (yesterday). The race starts at 4 pm today (eastern time). I will be halfway to Fryeburg for our Memorial concert, so I'll have to watch it tomorrow. I'm sure I'll know the results before then.
