The 2022 Azerbaijan F-1 Race has just finished.

1.  It was a disastrous weekend for Ferrari with Sainz DNF with hydrolics issue, then LeCler DNF with power unit problem.  So,  with Ferraris gone , the two RBs led to the finish.

2.  With the Red Stallions gone, Russell moved into 3rd, & Hamilton slowly crawled into 4th.  That was quite a achievement for MB!

Aside from the above, it was a "quiet" race.

The next 2022 F-1 stop will be in Montreal, Canada, this coming weekend.

I PRESUME there will be live telecast but I cannot speak for TV Stations programming priorities.

The Qualifying Sessions for the 2022's Canadian F-1 GP has just finished.  The starting grid positions have been decided & for the first two rows, they are:
Max, Alonso
Sainz, Hamilton.

Q1 was basically a wet session.
Q2.  Rain stopped, some dry patches appeared.
Q3.  More dry patches on a slippery track.  Russell was in 3rd when he tried on slicks which were not pre-mature for the track, he lost control, and ended well below among the top 10.  However, Russell was faster than Hamilton before the tyre change!

My observation:
- MB was not as fast as RB or Ferrari.
- MB's bouncing was evident on the straight, which caused MB to lose speed & when cornering.
- A few races ago, I stated Hamilton might be playing games with Team MGT to let Russell out-qualify him in all races.  Now, it is almost apparent that Russell is actually faster than Hamilton.
- I think only DNF could prevent RB from winning tomorrow.

The Canadian F-1 has ended.

Max, Sainz, Hamilton, Russell.

The race was tense & interesting ONLY during the last 15 laps after an Official Car appeared & all race cars bunched up to have a final 15-lap sprint.

It was a dry race -unlike Qualifying, & pit stop strategy + luck played a strong role.  However, Max was definitely faster, Team MB was lucky.

I will post a race highlights video when it becomes available.

The next stop for 2022's F-1 Championship race will be the UK GP, during the first week-end in JUL.

I believe there will be live telecast because the starting time in UK is Toronto's early morning, which means F-1 will not have to compete for available broadcast time with baseball or stock car racing (which drives along circles or ovals).

British drivers, like Hamilton & Russell, should know this race track well!
