F1 Breakfast - Monaco GP, May 28th

F1 Fans,

Memorial Day weekend is fast approaching and any race fan worth their seat cushion knows what that means: Monaco GP, Indy 500, and some NASCAR race, I forget which one, oh yeah, Coca-Cola 600.  Anyway, the first and best race of the day is the Monaco GP!  You know, the one with the REAL marina.  Tight, twisty, with a tunnel, it's one of the can't miss GPs on the roster. 

Unfortunately, I will be missing this one due to a trip out of town 😄.  Thank goodness for streaming!  Everyone enjoy and I'll catch you next time.

                 When:  Sunday, May 28th, 9 a.m. 
                 Where: Mom & Pop's Family Restaurant
                              331 E. Bayview Blvd.
                              Norfolk, VA 23503

F1 Breakfast - Azerbaijan GP, April 30th

 F1 Fans,

We're back at Baku for an exciting weekend of racing which includes the first of 6 sprint races for the 2023 season.  FYI, it's now called the "Sprint Shootout" (so American), and there are format changes.  For one, the Friday qualifying session sets the grid for the Sunday GP; a second qually on Saturday sets the grid for the Shootout.  So in reality, the spring races are strictly for points now, with no impact to the GP on Sunday.  Word is Max doesn't particularly care for the sprint races, but since Max doesn't particularly care about what anybody else thinks, I don't know why the sportscasters keep asking him these types of questions!

As you know, Azerbai-yawn is an EARLY race (7 am).  Skip has worked it out with Mom & Pop's to let us in early so we do not miss race start.  They officially open right at 7, so recommend not getting there much before 6:45 or so.  Sad to say, I can't make it for this one - so I'll see you next time!

                 When:  Sunday, April 30th, 7 a.m. 
                 Where: Mom & Pop's Family Restaurant
                              331 E. Bayview Blvd.
