After reading your article I am so disappointed I didn’t get to see it live. I love F1 including the personalities, technology, teams and yes, drama. Who did Haas end up replacing Schumacher with?

It was certainly eventful! Haas replaced Schumacher with Nico Hülkenberg. Hülkenberg is a former Williams, Force India, Renault driver and was most recently a reserve driver for Aston Martin in 2022. He's done pretty well so far this season.

Nice write up Abby on a race that looked kept everyone on the edge of their seats- The restarts were so fun to watch. This track looked amazing, fast and lots of room. Gotta go see this one in person some day. Is red bull sandbagging to not get penalized ? Probably, but I just want to see SOMEONE beat "the Petulant one".

Thank you! Agreed. Aaron and I were talking about trying to head to Melbourne for the 2024 race. Re: sandbagging, I'll just cite to Horner's comments and say, "That's very generous of [you]." [https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/horner-denies-russells-red-bull-f1-sandbagging-claims/10455427/].

Mercedes dominated for seven straight seasons! It's Red Bull's turn.
