Could mean we see some greats bowing out soon...

Alonso isn't a fan of the coming triple header, or the 24 race schedule...

Quote:
But, I don't think that time will arrive. Honestly, in terms of feeling slow, because I have extreme self-confidence in my performance, it could be that with the calendar and with the demanding schedule that one day I will feel it's time - because there are other things in life.

Next year with the proper [24-round] calendar, we have to see how it feels.

I saw that it's a triple-header. I don't know why, I thought that Vegas was alone next year… It's three races together. These kinds of things will drain my battery, not driving.

It is probably more serious than we see it with people leaving Fia than others coming in which includes, would you believe an ex RBR man from far back, maybe he can restore some sense in the crumbling organisation.

No tv box but have a Pioneer A-X530 for hi-fi with straight signal line circuit.
It's not new but effective.

The only fix for Gunther being out is more Gunther - special guest commentator for every race on the sky broadcast (since I mainly watch those on ESPN here). Going to be very disappointed if this doesn't happen.
