Nine races in Europe. Good-  we invented the sport , created nearly all of its heritage, are a big part of its audience  and all the cars are made here . But four races at crap circuits in Gulf states with appalling human rights regimes and  freedom  of expression? . And one in Azerbaijan , where prisoners of war are executed and critics of the regime are banged up without trial?

 

I dare say if that toxic little sh*** Ecclestone were still in charge, there'd be a race at Sochi too- only last year he'd said he'd  take a bullet for Putin .   . 

 

Good luck with the rainbow liveried crash helmet  Lewis - that should show 'em eh?

#4 It doesn't look as if that situation is going to get any better. When the money gets put on the table the principles go under it, as we saw with FIFA.

Who'd have thought someone who is concerned about the environment would spend his hols wandering around the Antarctic on a £200m Superyacht with 20,000hp diesel engines.

And the majority of circuits that have declared ticket sales have sold out apart from some general admission !!

Las Vegas GP sold out almost instantly for decent seats.

The cost of Las Vegas tickets was eye watering.

I thought 2020 was the year that was going to give me all I wanted. It turned out to be the year to make me appreciate what I've got.

#7 What were they Paul? 

Grandstand tickets are still available for Bahrain in March for about £150 up. Maybe the contentious Middle Eastern circuits aren't so popular. 

I think the demand for Vegas is understandable. There'll probably even be a few genuine fans there....... Wink

Ferrari HQ  is , as ever , at Maranello (worth a visit BTW ). My reference to 'here' was Europe , of which we still are part. For anoraks there was also the Ferrari  GTO , which John Barnard created. Not 'Gran Turismo Omologato ' but , more prosaically The Guildford Technical Office.

And on the subject of 'Made in England', weren't some of Ferrari's chassis built at John Thompson Composites? (Possibly in the era of my cousin Harvey - but I can't remember). 

Yours truly.
