Am I allowed to say I'm looking forward to this one, and that it's a sprint weekend?

I know Miami GP and sprint weekends are supposed to attract complaints around here whistle

The only things I'm looking forward to this weekend now are the Thursday press conferences. Could be spicy.

How much choice do Red Bull have over who they put up for these? I'm kind of hoping they send the PA smile

Interestingly the FIA have yet to confirm who's attending the Teams press conference on Thursday - even though it's tomorrow and they normally would have done by now.

Perhaps people wanted to see how events this week resolve themselves ahead of deciding the line up?

And if Horner is there, or Fred, no one else in the room will be asked a single question...

So blue stripes rather than a blue car.

Bit disappointing

That VCARB one isn't crazy good but it's pretty decent. No fanfare either and it puts the Ferrari one to shame.

Taste the rainbow.

Edit: to clarify, I think it's a multi-coloured mess.

Because the US is, commercially at least, the land of pomp and one-upmanship.
