IceCreamMan Posted July 18, 2021 Share Some behind the scenes shots. F1 use a mobile data centre. They have 2 of them. Used for races which are on consecutive weekends. The first guys get to a track bout 14 days before the race. They start building the data centre and guys start painting the track etc. F1 bring their own fibre and lay it around the track. Again there are 2 sets of everything for concurrent weekends. I used to work with connectivity for tv and data signals. We would arrive around 8 days in advance an commence testing. We would sit inside the data centre from 0700 to around 1900 every day just monitoring. Before the race is over guys are beginning to take it all down. The team entertainment areas are also duplicated. So those big structures that cost fortunes there are 2 of them. Transported by truck and built at each track. Takes about 4 days to build an 2 to take down. Cranes are used to build em. big business f1. Long Wheel Base 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IceCreamMan Posted July 18, 2021 Share Great race. English love 44. seems a lil unfair really. But that’s racing and were the roles reversed the same sanction would have been applied. we saw verstapen getting loaded into helicopter. Happened right next to us basically. Did not think he was injured but track doc must have referred him. the red arrows are amazing wow. Edited July 18, 2021 by IceCreamMan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long Wheel Base Posted July 19, 2021 Share My blood is still boiling after yesterday so I will sit on my fingers but I must say I have never sworn at that person so much in my life. @IceCreamMan WOW man that must have been so cool. Thanks for all the pics. Glad you had decent weather. Edited July 19, 2021 by Long Wheel Base spelling IceCreamMan and Vetplant 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pure Savage Posted July 19, 2021 Share @IceCreamMan thanks for the amazing pics!! I think this is what the season needed, the contenders to tangle. Racing is just going to get closer, As they are 20/30 seconds faster than any other driver on the grid, penalties mean nothing to them. Will not be surprised to see LATE breaking by Max in Hungary, worst you both crash out, best you carry on and other driver crashed out, middle ground, you take the place.

If the 2022 cars do bring closer racing as planned I think we might see a lot more incidents. The dynamics of the cars will be different and I don't think drivers are used to driving close to each other in this generation of cars. justinafrika and Steven Knoetze (sk27) 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
