"2023 UCI Cycling World Championships | Glasgow and across Scotland" https://www.cyclingworldchamps.com. Had no idea about this event until I was watching BBC breakfast. BMX flatland and Bike Trials amongst the many competitive events over 11 days of action.

Great GP with plenty of action throughout. Incredible performance with McLaren/Lando Not sure what to make of the Brad Pitt F1 movie project, although from what he was saying in interview with Martin Brundle, it sounds as if he wants to create a unique movie visual experience that was seen from Top Gun Maverick.

Looking at Jack Carthy run at the finals, you can kinda understand why has opted to run the bars like that. Really helps with the steep virtual stuff.

The little tree fakie move he does at 2:17 was nice even he was slightly out of the cam shot. His style does look awkward when on the backwheel. Not a stable as I have seen him in the past.

Borefest with the exception of Saturday quali. Slightly interesting as the showers fell but not enough to change impact of the race. Barcelona will give some indication of how competitive the Merc upgrades as well as teams working over the summer break as to how they can copy that intricate RB19 underfloor. Nice one Perez.

WTF!

Slightly off topic but equally puzzling. The chainset arm is very close to the chainline at the top of pedal stroke, but as he pedals back it catches the chain.

Ignore. Old video

Max Vs George tussle was interesting https://youtu.be/x0ViX9RpVJo Love what they have done with the FOM camera where you can see more detail of the undulations of the street circuit.

My bad for not spotting that given the month.

WTF was that at the 2023 Australian GP! 3 Red Flags, multiple crash at the final restart with 2 laps to go. Stewards and Race Control trying to figure how to finish the race. Well whatever happens, this will be the most talked about race event. Netflix probably lapping this up for DTS season 6. https://youtu.be/FExS3lFEwqc

I don't get how the position of the addition cassette can make the bike faster using very little pedalling effort.

The pace of Verstappen RedBull car when he breezed past Hamilton and George was insane. Both Mercedes and McLaren have some head scratching to do with their cars. Never truly appreciate how rapid these cars are until I saw this at Monza. Doesn't look real especially the overtake

Thought this guy had disappeared off the grid. Great to see him with a new sponsor.

What a drive from Alonso. Wheel-to-wheel exchanges looked much closer than 2022. https://youtu.be/f9j8nhMNYO4

No surprises that Mercedes will have no choice but bring out a new bodywork aero package that is either a hybrid or evolution of both RedBull and Ferrari cars using the favourable larger sidepod design with cutaways to increase both the low pressure ground effect and upper down force to keep the mid section of the car planted on the tarmac. Their narrow sidepod and coke bottle design has only proven that the car is pretty quick on the straights, but unstable in cornering and direction change especially in corners with crosswinds. Even Alonso's long runs in the AMR23 just show that Mercedes aero philosophy is clearly going down the wrong path in an attempt to more raw pace. Let's not forget the Aston Martin AMR23 is basically a RedBull RB18 aero package with a Merc engine with a lesser party mode. Alfa Romeo is also interesting with its hybrid Ferrari/RedBull design. Arguably the best car paint job and livery of the grid. Not sure what's going on with McLaren woes. Midfield battle is gonna be very close fight. Drive To Survive season 5 is also quite an amusing watch. Was laughing out loud when Totto was calling out with the other team principals during a private discussion about the porpoising and Christian Horner just comes out by saying "change your f**king car"

https://youtu.be/j9rC9OKSBcU 1st day of testing. Virtually every car on the grid apart from Mercedes W14, has copied or cloned influences of the side pod design from RedBull and Ferrari. Alfa Romeo is like a hybrid of both.
