Yeaaa

 

Formula One Racing has finished their summer break.  They were in Belgium this week.

They race all over the world; mostly in Europe, but in the Far East, Middle East, Australia, South America, Mexico, and the U.S. as well.  They’ll race mostly every other weekend now through the end of November.  Practice broadcast on Friday, qualifying on Saturday, and race day on Sunday. 

 

Our old 1966 Volvo got 95 horsepower out of an 1,800 cc four cylinder engine with two carburetors.  The 2016 Formula One cars get almost 1,000 horsepower out of 1,600cc V-6 power units with one turbocharger.  200+ mph.  Amazing.

 

We don’t have any American drivers in the field, but there should be a good spectator turnout in Austin in October, with the U.S. having a team this year.

 

And football is back too!  Go Broncos!

 

We know how we’ll be spending Sundays; television potatoes.
