Now we just need Ferrari to do a partnership with Nintendo and we can literally have Mario vs Sonic on the F1 track.

It’s not mandatory but when you’ve got points on the line they probably didn’t want to be seen to be making decisions that could cost midfield teams a chance at points, even if that meant an extra lap or two behind the safety car.

Agree on the GDPA role, but they did explicitly ask him about it during the interview so figured it was at least worth mentioning.

Best theory I have is all the teams are expecting some sort of sanction over the incident and they all want to be able to be arms length and say “that was the FIA’s decision” and not have sound bites where they were suggesting that something should happen.

All the drivers clearly have been advised by their teams to not comment on the Max situation. Oscar basically said “didn’t have context on what happened, only saw they collided, can’t comment”, Lando ignored the question entirely and just started talking about his own race, George was pretty non committal despite being involved in the incident and also flat out refused to comment in his role as a GPDA director (says he was “too close to comment”).

Clearly they don’t want any sound bites out there about it.

Oh absolutely, I’m not suggesting it’s a product worth using in this day and age when you probably have good quality music available locally. It was a potentially useful tool back when we all used to download music of questionable quality off the internet, but less relevant these days.

You can also get an iTunes Match subscription. No idea what it goes for these days but it’s a bit cheaper than Apple Music (doesn’t give you access to any music but lets you sync your music in iTunes to all your devices - still requires a Mac or PC to use though).

tvOS supports VPN connections directly on the Apple TV. Haven’t tried it myself but I assume you just download the Tailscale app, set it up, and then it should just work.

Probably so he had the process worked out and ready in case he needed it later in the race rather than them trying to explain it in the moment.

I felt Ollie should have gotten DOTD over Lewis. 20th to 10th and points (well, a point) in a Haas seems more impressive than 9th to 5th in a Ferrari.

Enjoyed the race though! But this is multiple weeks now where we’ve had issues with the graphics during the race. This week was the most egregious but there’s been multiple examples in 2025 where they’ve turned off the timing on screen because of problems, often with some of the animations freezing or causing driver names to overlap. Wonder what happened to it in the off season?
