Hope you're having an amazing day

On the Grosjean love, Sky did this little piece with him either last year or the year before and he was on the radio whilst doing a lap of Silverstone in some old car and the little noises he was making were, for want of a better term, adorable.

I am also confused by it despite being a grown man but I think just over 6 hours from now.

No, I'm saying due to the lost hour my body clock will see 5am/6am as 4am/5am.

Brundle pit-walks already make me angry enough.

As someone living in Melbourne yeah 5 hours 45 min until race start at the time of this post.

Heading to the track in 3 hours or so, I might try and pick up a Alonso hat because it will probably be my last chance.

By that logic you should also pick up a Lance Stroll hat

How quickly they forget how Grosjean was the first one to murder Alonso and arguably ruined, or at the very least significantly impacted Alonso's 2012 challenge:

I got bored, so I'm predicting the 2018 schedule.

Australian GP - March 25
Chinese GP - April 8
Azerbaijan GP - April 15
Russian GP - April 29
Spanish GP - May 13
Monaco GP - May 27
Canadian GP - June 10
French GP - June 24
Austrian GP - July 1
British GP - July 8
Hungarian GP - July 22
German GP - July 29
Belgian GP - August 26
Italian GP - September 2
Singapore GP - September 23
Malaysian GP - October 7
Japanese GP - October 14
United States GP - October 28
Mexican GP - November 11
Brazilian GP - November 25

Bahrain and Abu Dhabi both have their contracts up, so they're off the schedule. So are China and Singapore, but I'm keeping them to get to 20 Grands Prix.

Bahrain will go but I'd imagine Abu Dhabi will stay. It's got the whole night race thing going for it (especially relevant with Singapore having said they're not renewing their contract when it's up) and it does more hospitality than most Grand Prix.

gently caress Bahrain though.

Dang. I'm going to miss Singapore and the guaranteed safety car.

I'd alter my predictive schedule, but I'm too much of a slacker to do so. Just shift everything up one.
