They really are trying their best to get back all the people that Bernie soured over the last few years.
Austrian TV mentioned that ratings are up 20% this year compared to last. Part of it is probably a more interesting championship fight, but Liberty's handling is surely helping a lot!
Why the 2013 Sauber? They should have brought their 2012 one that got four podiums!

Fucking embarrassing stroll. Lol.
I can totally see them announcing it late, to keep the crowd numbers in check.

Redbull knows how to do these shows. Stroll just didn't want to break anything and made the track look tiny.

That MP4/6 is stunning...Little Whores not so much. Shame Hamilton can't be there but well done to Liberty for doing this and getting F1 out there.
Dude, really?

Those vintage Equipe Renault flame suits are str8 up fyah!
Missed who?
Oops he did it again.
Went to the event. Security was tight - two bag checks and electronic wands. They even confiscated my deodorant 
The static cars was a bloody mess - just a cram of people not moving at all. They should have arranged it more like a moving queue. Gave up after about 10 mins.
Saw JB and Max/Lance/Fernando which was cool, then headed down to try and see the cars. Basically impossible as it was four deep all along the strip - if they'd have gone all the way down Whitehall there would have been more space. Or put some terracing at the end. RedBull was crazy loud - I guess pre-hybrid? I don't know if there was any commentary but they didn't have any PA down at the Whitehall end - would have been nice to know what the cars were and who was driving
Eventually got to the front just as everything stopped - kiss after Bottas stalled I think and an ambulance came onto the track. Not sure what was going on - member of the public got hurt?
Could have stayed to see if the cars came back on but I have a long trip home so I called it a night. Will post some vids/pics tomorrow. Is there a way to post Iphone slow motion videos? I tried uploading to youtube but they seem to be full speed

Yeah there was no need for that sorry but they really get on my nerves. Anyways...that was better than I thought it'd be and I hope this is the start of some great promos by Liberty. Really disappointed that Hamilton couldn't be there and it's not doing him any favours when you see the other 19 drivers up there and getting involved.
