F1 Monaco 2023
Monaco
First laps over and settling down for a sleep, but no.
What’s this? Rain? But surely just a bit? No, proper rain!
Spins! Crashes! Who’s very close to the wall? ©AWS
Ferrari goes wrong. George goes wrong.
Max wins. Again.
F1 Miami 2023
Miami
THIS IS THE FORMULA.
Billions of money spent racing in a car park.
Random people, you don’t know who they are.
DRS yes. Safety Cars no.
Pretending the strategy is exciting.
Max overtakes everyone.
Max wins.
THIS IS THE FORMULA.
F2 Azerbaijan 2023
Because every single social media account with even a vague interest in F1/F2 has posted “We’re ba(c)k in Baku!”, I’m just going to say it’s the F2 weekend in Azerbaijan. That is all…

Azerbaijan
Boring, boring, boring,
Oooooooo Safety Car,
Interesting? No, boring.
Boring, boring. What the f**k is happening!?
Who are these people!?
End.
F2 Australia 2023
F2 is in Australia and it’s SO EXCITING because NO ONE has EVER driven in Australia before!! No seriously, it’s exciting. I am excited. Be excited…
F2 Saudi Arabia 2023
Amaury Cordeel hit the new low of getting fined even before the weekend began, all because he failed to complete his e-learning modules on time (despite the FIA extending the deadline for him). I would laugh about this more, but it’s giving me flashbacks to all the health and safety e-learning I’ve been forced to do over the years and it’s a dark place, so let’s move on…
F2 Bahrain 2023
F2 is back! (Is there any other way to start a new-season post, because I seriously haven’t seen one). There’s lots of new people and plenty of familiar faces too, including the full-time return of Juan-Manuel Correa who said he felt more like a rookie than a veteran because so much has changed in F2 since he last raced in the series. Good thing I gave him his own section in F2’s most important flowchart then…

F2 Netherlands 2022
**MASSIVE DISCLAIMER**
I watched the whole weekend from the race track and therefore have actually no idea what really happened. All I do know is that I had dinner at the same place as the BBC Chequered Flag team and was more excited about it than I should have been…
F2 Belgium 2022
After a summer break that was simultaneously incredibly fast and painfully slow, the F2 gang arrived in Belgium, minus a few members but plus a few others. Firstly Jake Hughes announced that he was going to be leaving F2 to focus on his other racing commitments, such as Formula E and generally being a bit of a Mercedes guy. He handed his VAR seat over to David Beckmann, which means everyone will stop having to refer to him as a super-sub, because obviously now he is an ultra-sub. Also making a (hopefully) permanent return for the season was Ralph Boschung, who seems to have fought off his recurring neck issues, ready to take back his car from its trusty caretaker Roberto Merhi. Also taking on the role of ultra-sub for the rest of the season is Tatiana Calderón (who last drove in F2 in 2019), replacing Cem Bölükbasi at Charouz, after Bölükbasi and the team apparently had some awkward contract talks…
