FIA in doing the right thing shocker.

Now can they get rid of Bahrain, Saudi Arabia etc please.

They hadn't much option when a few of the drivers were refusing to go to Russia.

Apparently it was all the F1 drivers bar 1, Nikita Mazepin who is Russian

Haas have sacked Nikita Mazepin and they have also cancelled it's partnership with Nikita's father part owned company Uralkali.

One of the drivers who can be a possible replacement is reserve driver Pietro Fittipaldi, who is the grandson of former world champion Emerson.

Delicious...

An all action GP as Ferrari take the 1 -2 on the podium.
Hamilton surprised himself when he ended up in 3rd place, after Verstappen failed to finish and Perez spun on the penultimate lap.

VIVA LAS VEGAS!!!!!!

A night race in Vegas in 2023 has been announced overnight

I assume this will be a street circuit also?
