As why does my Oh, So Clever title above make me think
of that Great ‘Ol Re-Flex song The Politics of Dancing, Eh?
“We got the Message
Heard it on the Airwaves
The Politicians Have become the
DJ’s
Station to Station
The Politics of Dancing…”

Hafta’ say what a great way to start off the
Formula 1 season, with Uber’ enjoyable TV Broadcast times out here upon Ye
Oregonian coast…
What an Insane Qualifying session that was from
Jeddah! Obviously the 57mins Red Flag session for Mick Schumacher’s Mondo’
crash at Turn 11 at an estimated 170mph was Saturday’s Talking Point!
For which Thankfully the son of Michael
Schumacher, who’d just celebrated his 23rd Birthday on March 22nd,
was Ok with No Broken Bones and simply flown to Hospital for a precautionary
medical Scan. Before returning to the Paddock the following day and telling the
interviewer He’s Fine!
As Haas wisely decided to withdraw Mick’s
ruined racecar Saturday night. Which afterwards Herr Guenter’, aka Guenter
Steiner, Haas’s Team Principal said could be up to a Million Dolla Hit, Yowzah!
Pretty Hilarious over Sir Lewis, nee golden
Child, aka Lewis Hamilton failing to advance into Q2’ for the first time since the 2017 Brazilian Grand Prix, where He
reportedly Crashed Out. Whilst Sky Sports Croftie’, aka David Kroft noted on
sheer pace, it had been the ’09 Silverstone race since He’d failed to advance
into Qualifying’s second round, Crikeys!
Also have to say it was a very enjoyable race, albeit
I was torn between who I wanted to win, i.e.; Max Verstappen or Charles
Leclerc, since I feel both of them are Hot Heads! But I chose Max since He’s
still behind in the Championship chase…
And may be it’s just Mwah? And I like how the new
F1 Chassis seem to definitely be doing what was intended with the Regulations
Overhaul, But? It made me think of IndyCar’s (CART) Handford device, since it
now seems like Nobody wants to be leading! And All of the drivers were trying to
entice the other to be ahead of them just before the next DRS Detection Zone in
order to call Slingshot On!
It's now completely Black ‘N White what Formula
1 is All about, albeit it’s Always been
about Show Me the Money!
But Formula 1, the FIA and Stefano Domenicali
need to Quit pretending they’re changing Dodgy Nations Attitudes by bringing Formula
1 to them, which is Nothing more then a Empty
soundbite and Hollow Smokescreen! Since The Guardian’s Headline proclaiming Formula
1 Bosses continue to Bury their Heads in increasingly Blood Stained Sands says
it All!
Wasn’t aware that the $450 million Deal with
Aramco to be F1’s Global partner in 2020 included title Sponsorship of the U.S.
Grand Prix at Circuit Of The Americas, nee COTA, and I wonder if this will Bleed
over to Miami and the forthcoming Las Vegas Grand Prix?
Then on top of that, it’s rumoured that Saudi
Arabia is paying F1 $900 million over 10 years for it’s sanctioning fee to Host
the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix, which by my math equals $1.35 B as in Billion!
So how can the Formula 1 Drivers even remotely
think they can influence where Liberty Media and the FIA will send the F1
Circus to race? As obviously they’ve chosen Dollars vs. Humanity, since after
all Formula One is a Business!

And speaking of putting Money ahead of Morals,
Isn’t it Ironic that Liberty Media and Formula 1 were so Quick to publicly
announce the new Las Vegas Grand Prix following it’s Saudi Arabia Flashpoint
race? As it’s a very Sad statement towards what Liberty Media’s doing to F1,
i.e.; Oversatuating the Market!
It’s also disappointing to Hear that the
current Concorde agreement between the 10 F1 Constructors allows up to 24 races
per season, which Y’all know Liberty Media will push thru in their never ending
rush to Squeeze maximum profits out of Formula 1 before it All goes Pear Shaped
and Attendance Drops Off again…
Since The Daily Mail’s Headline says it All, by proclaiming that the new, third U.S. based race in Las Vegas could become the first Billion Dollar Deal, and that F1 Has Hit the Jackpot, Baby!
