Anyone else furiously drinking coffee to watch a race that should've been convenient but for some reason isn't?
Nope, it's a very convenient Sunday afternoon race for us Aussies, doesn't happen often.
Still not sure what they were thinking with the schedule. It’s crazy that it’s more convenient to watch the races live that are on the other side of the world than one a single time zone away. I’m just planning on starting the replay tomorrow morning. Don’t have the stamina to stay up that late anymore!
The explanation that I saw was that Europeans will be able to wake up and have a cup of coffee with the race. Apparently there are more fans there.
The explanation I saw was that the timing was adjusted to traffic needs on the strip.
You’re also American I take it? I’m about to go to Wally’s and grab a slushee and an energy drink just in case I need em. It’s starting midnight my time so not bad but if the ending goes to 3 that’s when I’ll need some caféine.
Just waking up and getting ready to install myself in front of the tv. I do feel sympathy for you US fans, but I must admit I like these morning races.
I don't think I'm going to last an entire race if there's a red flag lol
