Someone crash (safely) so Alonso gets the win here. Where's Nelson Piquet Jr when you need him?

Schumacher actually led the lap as the last guy still on the full wets.

Verstappen wins, but a crazy finish with Leclerc and Perez for second and third...

Well we got a bit of a race in Suzuka which is good to see. That shit with the tractor on the track at the start was maddening because of the tragedy of jules Bianci in 2014. Clearly F1 don’t remember this stuff.

So now it seems Verstappen is World Champion. Yeah, between time penalties and adjusted points systems because of the rain, Verstappen’s locked it in. EDIT: Apparently they awarded full points because they were actually able to finish the race to a conclusion, as opposed to it being unable to be restarted in the same situation like in Belgium last year. FIA, you've done it again...

Denny Hamlin had stated that they were awaiting word from Kurt Busch’s doctor this week. With the race being in Busch’s hometown of Las Vegas this weekend, speculation is this announcement will be made in conjunction with Busch announcing his retirement from full time competition.

Welp, now Childress won't have to lease one of Spire's charters next year (unless he wants to give Ty a ride for 2023)

The most logical theory I’ve heard is a merger between JRM and Hendrick

The most logical theory I’ve heard is a merger between JRM and Hendrick Nothing yet, but that would seem pretty useless unless Jr and Kelley just wanted to sell their operation. Hendrick has his drivers locked in, and the 4 car rule is still in effect.

Unsurprisingly, Kurt Busch has announced he's done with full-time competition, clearing the way for Reddick to take over the 45 next year.

Josh Berry wins the Las Vegas Xfinity race and will be in the championship 4 at Phoenix. Despite “driving (his) nutsack off and leaving ‘em on the dash” Noah Gragson finishes second. AJ Allmendinger, who led the points most of the season, finished 2 laps down and is now 16 points under the cut line. Have I mentioned I hate this format?
Hailie Deegan made her series debut and finished 13th. Maybe she’s not the problem everyone thinks she is in the truck series.

15 minutes til we go racing in Texas. And there won't even be a rain delay unless things change dramatically. Verstappen nabbed the drivers title last time, Red Bull are in a good position to get their hands on the constructors version this time round.
Late work going on with Hamilton's car on the grid.
(Ocon will be starting from the pits)

A big crash involving Alonso and Stroll brings the safety car right back out. Lots of debris.

Verstappen having a nightmare pit stop and dropping places makes this a much more interesting race.
