And with that, the Formula 1 season is over. Let's compare the actual standings to my pre-season predictions:
Actual Standing (my prediction)
Questions I am eager to find the answers to:
Sad to see Seb Vettel still covid+. Hope he recovers without long-term issues.
I have a new Ponies-on-Earth satire of internet content creation written and ready to go, but I'm going to wait until after the two contests that wrap up this Sunday are out of the New Column.
Also, Australian Grand Prix this weekend. Shall we take bets on precisely how Ferrari and McLaren humiliate themselves?
Yesterday's Mexican Grand Prix was, in a word, lackluster. Ferrari drove like minivans heading to soccer practice, Mercedes bungled their tire strategy, and Max went to hyperspace and stayed there. The only exciting part was Daniel Ricciardo driving like it was 2018.
However,

Mariachi F1 theme music?!?!?!
It's beautiful. I've listened to it for five hours now.
Formula 1 is on their summer break. My thoughts, predictions, and vain hopes for the remaining nine races of the season:
"Mercedes? Nope. Ferrari? Nah. Williams? Nuh-uh."
Formula 1 preseason testing in six days!
The first Grand Prix weekend of the season in two weeks!
"Aerodynamics are for people who can't build engines"
—Enzo Ferrari
Pre-season testing is in Bahrain in February, and the first Grand Prix weekend in Bahrain in March.
So, I'll put down my predictions now — before we have any info — so that in December we can laugh at how wrong I was.
Constructor's championship:
)"Sock," you say. "Are you high?"
It's silly, but I had fun. Hope you enjoy it, too.
From r/formuladank:
Day 17 without F1: I'm starting to see things
(That's the Raidillon/Eau Rouge segment of Spa-Francorchamps, the best track on Earth.)
Honestly, Monaco is not a good race. Sure, it has glitz and glamor, and the qualifying is insane, but the track is too narrow for overtaking so the race is more of a parade. I'd rather see them yeet Monaco from the calendar and bring back Hockenheim or Kyalami.
It's Silverstone, the UK 🇬🇧 Grand Prix this week.
Some random free associations:
Holy cow, what a race! The wet start was exciting (and dangerous). I feel terrible for Ferrari: a did-not-finish and a P6 at the Autodromo Enzo e Dino Ferrari? That's gotta hurt. Very glad to see Lando (a future world champion, mark my words) get P3 and Magnusson in the points again, although I had hoped Haas (being the only American team on the grid) would do better.
Sock Puppet's at it again, giving us another entry into my Not-A-Contest . . . and giving ponies another shot at driving Formula 1 cars. Before too long the whole F1 field will be ponies (or pony adjunct), and I for one would embrace that.
