Formula 1

If you haven't been watching the news lately, then you're probably unaware of the big thing that happened over the weekend in the US!

Formula 1

If you're like me, then you probably don't know much about formula 1 racing. In Brooke terms, it's these itty bitty cars that zip around a winding race track, trying to fit as many laps as they can into a certain amount of time. I might add it's nothing like nascar, people.

There are formula 1 tracks all over the world! I thought of it almost like sport fútbol, or soccer, because it's so well known all over the world, with hardcore fans that travel to see their drivers hopefully win.

Austin is now another home to formula 1 racing, the only track in America. Pretty cool, huh?!

 This weekend kicked off the grand opening, and of all places, it's basically in my backyard!
 
I'm sure you can only imagine how busy Austin was this past weekend. Circuit of the Americas brought so many people to our city. Sure some Austinites were unhappy with the crowds, traffic, and events. But for someone who experienced the "traffic," it actually wasn't bad at all! It HAD to bring a lot of revenue to our city too, so that's always a good thing.

Be sure to turn down your volume, these cars are LOUD!

I was amazed with the diehard fans, the diverse culture, the speed of the f1 cars, the amount of Ferrari's I saw at one time!, how loud the f1 cars were, and the whole set up! I seriously felt like I was in a different country. It didn't have that weird Austin feel. Lots of logo attire, cologne, and fancy clothes. It was all so different than what I've ever experienced before. Super fun to say the least!

 

The Ferrari's racing! My favorite part! They played dirty, and I loved it. Who woulda thought!

Until next time, Circuit of Americas!
