Bring on the warm weather and the death of this 'Made in China' virus. Besides, everyone knows if its made in China, it wont last long anyway!
The Virus was actually made in Canada they say and Chinese spy scientists stole it.
So now its a cheap Chinese copy?
But with affordable postage as long as you wait a couple of weeks

Imola would have been nice though! :(

More races in the southern hemisphere? Are there any tracks fit for F1 south of the equator?
Adelaide? Phillip Island?

I'd say Bathurst, but F1 drivers aren't that brave
How do you know that? Do you know them all personally?
Have you ever seen Bathurst? It's like a baby Nordschleife, with more walls.
I'll give Jensen Button a call and get his opinion.

If they can race at Monaco, they can race at Bathurst :mrgreen:

Great! I'll be there.

Back on-topic, 147 new cases in Italy and 10 in Bahrain over night. I reckon it's probably best to move the whole season down under for 2020. It starts here anyway... It'll save on shipping costs and just think of the reduction in the carbon footprint!

Just a quick question, how many races are required to be run to crown a champion?

Imagine.....Albon wins in Australia.......a pandemic occurs and no more races until Abu Dhabi.... Albon finishes second and claims the crown.. is this possible :lol:
