Did anything happen to the Estoril track that caused them to be unable to run there because that probably would be the better option for F1 in portugal.

Probably doesn't meet the fia standards where you have to have 9000 miles of runoff instead of just having some grass. Portimao is either a pretty new track or it was refurbished to a higher standard

Bit weird cause on the TV it seemed like there was limited run off on Portimao for the cars, not that it really matters because the FIA standards really make no sense when you consider Baku got approved somehow and that one choke point is just going to cause a massive bad accident at some point lmao

Pro move is to just watch the race highlights on YouTube a couple of hours later. See everything of interest in seven minutes (except Frogman apparently throwing a wobbler because his fastest lap was deleted).

Fake edit: and still get to go JESUS CHRIST SHUT THE gently caress UP CROFTY.

I fell asleep before it started, woke up to see Lewis pass Bottas for the lead, and promptly fell back asleep. So I can neither confirm nor deny the quality of the race.

Yeah when the Big Boss Man tells you to go faster and you ignore him, it's time to go. Kimi has got to go at the end of the season as well, and Seb's not looking great either
