Solid session. Verstappen takes pole once again. I really thought Alonso had it at the end but he seemed to drop it in the third sector

Expecting Verstappen to win by 30 seconds, Russell to finish higher than Hamilton, and Bearman and Tsunoda to get points.

They are building a new track that will have a section that is reminiscent of Rainbow Road, and is some 30 meters in the air.

How does the extreme heat there affect the tires and other components of their vehicles?

It's a night race, so the temperatures aren't too extreme.

Generally, the hotter the track, the greater the wear on the tyres.

They have different tires for different conditions, including high ambient temperatures.

It's called a Road, it's called a Rainbow Road.

He went for a stroll and didn't return.

Heat is bad on everything, but air temperature also affects performance. Cooler air is more dense than hot air so cars get more downforce plus more air into the engine in cooler air.

Saudi Arabia is building all sorts of mega projects. Look up Neom. They are building a linear city a few hundred kilometers long, thousands of kilometers of water pipes to bring desalinated water to cities and farms, and another city in the form of a 400 meter cube. Also, I just remembered the ski resort in the air.

I hope Hamilton made the right choice by signing for Ferrari. Mercedes hasn't been great recently but Ferrari isn't quite all over Red Bull's ass either. I'm hoping somebody can close the performance gap to Red Bull but I'm not going to hold my breath. I'm afraid it's going to be another year of Red Bull being unopposed.

It's nice seeing McLaren doing better. They're one of the biggest names in F1 and it was sad watching them spend several years floundering as backmarkers.

Red Bull have figured out this current set of regulations, the next big change will not happen until 2026, so not only is this year a wash but next year will be Red Bull domination as well

That's what I'm afraid of in the short term. At this point it's basically a fight for runner-up until regulation change.
