I like qualifying. Kind of fun. They should award points for the top 10. Then some teams who have no chance in the race could set up just for that.
Got a tip for us?

I watch the highlights on channel 4. Same as the race. It’s easy enough to avoid the results.
I’ve given up avoiding the results and when some of the races are shown late on Sunday evenings, I just watch the YouTube roundups and read articles.
It’s easy enough to do. I’m not on social media so just avoid the thread on here for a few hours and I’m good to go.
I’m on social media though so it’s not as easy for me. Plus I go to work in the days before I get around to watching any highlights and people mention the result.
I always watch them at the weekend before I go to work. Otherwise I’d have the same issue as we have a number of F1 fans at work.
Yeah but as I said the highlights are sometimes on too late on a Sunday night to watch before Monday morning. I haven’t got the luxury of being able to stay up until 11:30 when I have work the next day. I just think the whole highlights situation is a load of crap to begin with. Channel 4 delivered better coverage than Sky for live races yet here we are with a micro viewership due to PPV. How to kill the interest in what was already a niche sport.
Agreed. I don’t mind staying up. But there is usually 1-2 races a season when I don’t see it all!

I already have Prime so this would be a good result for me. Assuming this is not a US only deal

I assume (from the ios14 requirement) this is SwiftUI?So I spent the year learning iOS development and wanted to make something useful. So here's something for you all. TheRacingLine.

Requires iOS14 (sorry to iOS13 or below users, but the framework I used is iOS14 only). iPhone only currently. iPad and Mac to follow later, along with widgets and more data. This is my first app. I do expect bugs. But it seems to be pretty stable right now.

Congratualtions to Sir Lewis Hamleton
Indeed, the SwiftUI 2 update from 2020. Learning to make iOS apps, I figured there was no point in using the old stuff if I was just going to update it to the new stuff later on.
Does download on iPad but displays in a little window. Have plans to make it iPad and M1 Mac compatible soon. Also going to add Widgets and some other stuff. Will add more series on request too.

So looks like Imola or Portugal will be back in 2021 to fill Round 4 since Vietnam will not be happening and is unlikely to be considered in the coming years.
