About this episode
It’s good to be back. This weekend was quite eventful as not only was there racing but we also had our crown jewel event of the year; the Windup Watch Fair NYC. Ricardo discussed just how different this fair was from those of the past as well as its overall impact within the watch community. From there, we jumped straight into the racing. The first test of this final stretch of the season being the Circuit of the Americas. As a Grand Prix, this circuit has been purpose built for the larger generation of F1 cars, which means competitive racing is not only possible but pretty much assured as the drivers find themselves 2-3 wide around many turns. We were not disappointed in the first laps of the race as we saw Ferrari establish an early lead while the two main drivers fighting for the championship went wide. Charles Leclerc found himself taking early command of the race and never looked back. We discussed this and Ferrari’s overall dominance this past weekend. While Leclerc cruised to victory, the last laps featured an epic battle for the last podium spot between Max Verstappen and Lando Norris. This is what we were all waiting for and it did not disappoint, leaving us with a bit of controversy and a yearning for more wheel to wheel battles between these two. Take a listen as we break down the race, the titles up for grabs, and the surrounding storylines of the 2024 United States GP
