I always watch these just to see how they force Kimi to do an interview, and he does not disappoint :joy:

Its cool to see how some people put a lot of thought into their numbers and how some just dont care.

Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love ya tomorrow…

All Practice sessions are now only 60 minutes long, so fewer reserve and test drivers will get runs, and practice sessions may be a little more interesting to watch.

Adding this site for future reference ( :expressionless: ) Ref1 App

https://www.ref1.app/

Stats site that allows you to search, sort, and filter some F1 stats in various combinations (in addition to tracking the current season). Like most DNFs:

It’s updated at the end of each race, so the 2021 info will populate only after Bahrain on Sunday.

Question regarding casting. I still don’t have the casting option in my videos. What does it look like for you guys?

I can cast Youtube videos but just don’t have the option on anything on the F1 TV website.

I think they are still working on that

You can cast from a browser using Google Chromecast.

Other devices may support casting but may offer an un-supported experience. Our customer service team will be not be able to support with any technical troubleshooting related to un-supported devices.

Chromecast and Apple Airplay support on apps will be launched later in 2021.

For some reason that doesn’t work for me.

On other sites there will be a cast button and when I click that I cast to my tv.

On the F1TV videos I don’t get that icon and when I right click on the video and then click on cast my tv is grayed out.

Stupid F1TV.

For me casting works easily. Just pressed that button and it picks up my TV and my media player, and starts casting immediately. Sucks that you’re experiencing issues @Solitude

Unfortunately that button isn’t displaying for me.

Are you guys using Google Chrome? Because that’s the browser I’m using. But nothing else weird or different.

Yep, using Chrome. It’s really weird.
