F1 2025 News/Misc.

Canada will be run on the same day as and overlap with the Indy 500.

**** ‘em.
Unless Fox moves Indy to a 3:30 pm timeslot🙄

Madrid replacing Imola was clear all the time but it still sucks such a great track is replaced by a generic one in an industrial area with no apparent passing opportunities.

Idk if Thailand/Rwanda/RSA/ or any other prospective new track is ready by 2027 so maybe Imola can make it's way back on the schedule when Barcelona is gone.
 
I guess I'm late to the party, but what is the reason for Monaco moving for the traditional Memorial Day weekend?
They can go to North America and knock out Miami and Montreal in one trip before starting the European slate. They usually have two or three races in Europe before going to Canada for one race and back.

They say it should conflict ‘only’ once every five years with the way the calendars fall, but that is still one too many. They have two full open weeks in between Miami and Montreal next year, they could’ve easily moved it up one weekend.
 
I'm looking forward to it myself, it would be like two heavyweights standing toe to toe pounding it out. TV numbers for North America should be telling I would think. Is F1 looking to shop the date around for more money with the problems they had last year? And now they could have one more excuse because of TV ratings?

It can be quite a bit cooler up there three or four weeks earlier as well, I wonder how the promoter feels about that.
 
Lmao given that Richard Hammond couldn't even get the damn thing to move without a lot of help when he tested out the Renault years and years ago on Top Gear I would pay money to see Trump try to drive a modern F1 car.
