Not any more. Just tuned in to watch a couple minutes of the Mexico race. I have a WEC race on tape I haven't watched yet so I can use that to recover so don't worry about me.

Maserati Boss Says 'No Concerns' of Further EV Battery Fires for Formula E
Jan 12, 2024 Giovanni Tommaso Srgo, head of Maserati Corse, confident the FIA has done all to 'ensure a safe place for all of us' after preseason incident at Valencia, Spain, involving Williams Advanced Engineering battery. One of those moments nearly brought down the house—or at least a garage—at a preseason test in October at Valencia. A fire triggered by an EV battery pack in garage of series battery supplier Williams Advanced Engineering Technologies damaged its garages and that of the Mahindra race team, and it resulted in one minor injury. The incident also shut down Day 1 of a two-day test session and gave social media channels plenty of new material for a few days. The FIA put out a statement after an investigation, saying that “while being manually inspected by the battery single supplier team, there was an arc flash and some sparking, that resulted in a localized fire." The FIA carried out a specific investigation that resulted in an intensive check of all batteries and a reduction in available power during preseason testing, which underlines how all necessary measures were taken to ensure a safe place for all of us. https://www.autoweek.com/racing/more...oncerns-fires/ |

Wolff signs Mercedes contract extension to 2026
Toto Wolff will remain Mercedes team principal until at least the end of the 2026 season after signing a three-year contract extension. Following new deals for drivers Lewis Hamilton and George Russell last year, Wolff has now committed his future as both team principal and chief executive officer of Mercedes’ Formula 1 team. The contract extends his stay to at least 14 seasons – having joined Mercedes at the start of 2013 – and Wolff told The Telegraph that it was a decision taken with the support of the team’s co-owners Ineos and Mercedes-Benz. https://racer.com/2024/01/15/wolff-s...nsion-to-2026/ I'm doing pretty well on my predictions so here goes. In 2026 Hamilton buys Wolff out and becomes the new Mercedes team principal. |

^ Lets see, 1 second was needed to come up to RB19 in MAX's hands? plus the small reserve when needed, which wasn't used. So if the RB 20 is lets say .5 sec more and that's being conservative with safe not used reserve then the gap would be around a mean 0.8 sec with tyre deg kicking in. Ferrari has therefore gained some time but as pace increases other factors come in such as yaw and stability which halts the pace.
