Why such a big break ?

Last F1 race was April 2nd ? Nothing this weekend.

I don’t know about you guys but I want more not less F1.

We should let the back up drivers have at it on the off weeks ?

Yeah it's hard to take, it should have been China now but the covid threat unfortunately plays a bigger part in re-adjusting the timetable.

I did not know there was a Covid outbreak in china that caused this hiatus.

Yes safety first but at least run something F1 every Sunday.

Covid threat in a country with 100% vax rate? Weird.

They’re still playing the Convid scam over there? I thought they had stopped the nonsense too.

If we gotta wait we gotta wait, good time to try go-karting now to let off some 'waiting steam'

In the F1 news is how he once got totally sloshed in his younger days, I mean they'll soon be saying how he ties his shoe laces.
