Motorsports trend for 2024: everything is a bad taste joke now

Zero expectations as so far the races here have been forgettable. It's a pity F2 and F3 do not race here as they probably would provide more action. F1 Academy cars are too slow and the grid of 16 too small to become excited.

If only F1 would race at Barber instead. I'd be so hyped. But they always choose the worst tracks anyone can imagine.

I can't decide whether this track or COTA is worse. It's a tough call.

This venue was created purely to create $$$ and buzz in the American market. I doubt there was much regard given to the quality of racing. So sadly, an American race at a venue like Barber will probably never happen, as much racing purists would love it.
