We're going to use our hot tub later on today as the water is up to temp now having been fresh water filled with all the hygenic additives and that too has nothing to do with Miami GP except a little with the fake blue boat park there

In a way in can be indirectly compared with what can be happening at Fia in Paris now when Stravinsky first performed this at the Theatre des Champs-Elysees in Paris back in 1913 causing a near riot with the audience.

Rite of Spring/ Sir Simon Rattle with the LSO.

Jos Verstappen was involved in a massive crash during Rallye de Wallonie stage in Belgium, smashing into a tree 😳

The former F1 driver escaped the wreckage unharmed.

Pretty much "kitted" that one. The fact driver can walk away from this kind of accident is a wonderful achievement of engineering and fabrication.

It's just a bare box, must have stripped off the parts to put into a new shell.

Nice to have F1 back after an unwanted long break and Miami should be an interesting one with its mix of long straights and tighter sections putting a lot of focus on strategy, tire management and adapting to the heat and track surface. Hopefully we also get a proper fight at the front, with Ferrari and McLaren close enough to really challenge Mercedes this time around, and maybe even start closing the gap in the WCC.

Off track it is a full festival again, with big fan zones, live shows, and appearances from drivers like Lando Norris and Charles Leclerc, plus performances from artists like Nelly and Marshmello. Overall it should be another weekend where both the racing and the off-track entertainment are a big part of the experience.

His nav-man may have skipped a line.
Is that a camera poking out or damage on the back of the car before the shunt..

All the cars in front of him drifted through that turn and that pulled a lot of gravel out of the road.
At some point the 'loose gravel becomes very tricky to take that turn at high speed.
Jos lost control on the gravel and became a passenger . It was a big shunt by the rollover...

This happens even to the best drivers in the Rally motorsport races.
