2022 FIA Formula 1 Season About to Start

I’m still worried about and tracking progress in Ukraine, but I’m posting about something else today.  That doesn’t mean I stopped caring…...

 

Anyway, here is a video put together from our time at the U.S. Grand Prix in Austin Texas.

  I’m very excited about the upcoming F1 season kickoff.  Anyone else?

Missing F1

I don’t know about anyone else, but I’m ready for the 2022 Formula 1 season to start…even though the 2021 season just finished a couple weeks ago.  Here are a few photos I took last October at the FIA Formula 1 U.S. Grand Prix in Austin Texas.

Bagger Mayhem Racing

Here are a few photos from the Sonoma Raceway.  I was there with @baggermayhem racing team working as part of their digital/media team.  These photos are of their Bagger GP bike. 

Big thanks to them for allowing me to be a part of the team.  I also want to thank all the great folks at their sponsors @harddriveparts @flomotorsports @vosshelmets @michelinmotorcycle @pennohiocycles

Here are more photos from the Bagger Racing League.  This time I’m posting photos of @baggermayhem racing (BMR) team’s Lite Weight bike

Winner...Max Verstappen

@jasonpohuski and I hustled to the finish line to make sure we captured the end of the FIA F1 USGP race.  Red Bull Racing Honda’s Max Verstappen won the race with his rival (Lewis Hamilton who drives for Mercedes) right behind him in 2nd place.  It was a fun event to cover and probably the most difficult thing I’ve ever photographed.  It was a technical and logistical challenge from the beginning to the end.

 About this photo, the winning pit crew always runs to the wall to cheer for their driver going passed the finish line.  At this track, at this time of day, it was a tough shot to get because of the harsh sun, shadows from the grandstands, the speed of the car and several other factors.  So it isn’t the best photo in the world, but it captures some of the emotion involved in the sport.
