I agree. However, at least Apple would be commercial free like it is now. Hopefully they just buy the Sky sport stream like ESPN does.
Must have been a contract thing because Horner is still employed at Red bull. Just not in the same position. Kind of a weird situation. Guessing they would have owed him a lot more money or something if they just fired him outright.
Yeah kind of strange how long the breaks are at this point in the year. This is not the normal summer break they take.

In the video where he takes to the staff he says he is still employed by Red Bull but says nothing about what capacity.
Weird, I don't remember if Newey was still technically employed by RB in that buffer time between the announcement he was leaving and before he could start work at Aston.
He had to have a mandatory "gardening leave" which is: a period of paid time off imposed on key personnel when they move from one team to another. This is done to prevent them from immediately sharing confidential information about their former team's car development with their new employer. The duration of gardening leave can vary, but it's typically around 6 to 18 months, effectively keeping them away from F1 competition for about a year
Horner has a group of investors wanting to buy Alpine.
Horner/Flavio... now that's a combination.
Flavio would be gone, Flavio is just there to get them to the sale. At least that is what the guys on the F1 podcast I listen to think.
Got it. I hadn’t heard that rumor before today. That could be interesting.
Not sure how true this is yet but I like it for sure if it’s true
Everything I'm seeing right now is it'll be Bottas and Checo in those seats.
Kind of interesting. The TL;DR is the tire selection for this weekend will have a gap in them, so the medium and the soft are the same as last year but the hard is going to be harder. Attempting to make the strategy choices have some more impact since Spa is usually a M/H one stop.
I watched live on ESPN News or U, don’t remember which one it was on. I was surprised it wasn’t on regular or 2. Anyway, it cut out during SQ3, then came back in Spanish a few seconds later. Other than that few second blip, everything else seemed fine.
