The beginning of these races are great. Tons of lead changes and great passing. Two teams excel at starts and others are just way faster on the straights. I hope the teams can keep the gaps tighter later in the race.

I really look forward to the celebration if Cadillac ever finds a point or podium.

The announcers are not as refined as the sky sports team and the talk ALL THE TIME.  It?s like they have been told 1 second of silence will result in a kick in the pants. The sky sports guys used to let the engine sounds and great racing speak for itself from time to time. I find myself muting the tv occasionally.

Just started watching the JGP, so no raven commentary from me yet on this weekend.

Make the right choices now

Japan was more of the same, teams are still learning this new engine system where you can go faster in the corners with the battery but have to go slower in the straight aways to charge it up.  They are trying to figure out how much of each to use.  The battery can be fully recharged in a lap and fully depleted in less than a lap.  Makes for some very different racing.  We have a new Driver's championship leader.  Cadillacs both finished the complete race that is a start.

No racing the month of April.   :roll:
