Who will win the United States Grand Prix - Austin, Sunday

[vintage_tube]

Usually fun -- A Poll thru to the start of the race, Sunday afternoon --

Qualifying in about 10 minutes (4PM eastern).

I added for US representation, the HAAS Ferrari entry -- Romain Grosjean even though he is 13th in points.

Multiple entries are permitted -- it's a race and anything can happen. If you vote for more than one -- please state the order in which you predict.

(I know not 1/4 mile -- but only thing similar).

Best Sirs,

I think Hamilton will win, but want Vettel to & as a long long shot, I selected HAAS driver Romain Grosjean (I want to see a US team win the USGP at COTA - someday, but probably not tomorrow).

I don't know, but I'll be there. Perfect weather forecast. Mid 70s Sunny with nice north breeze. Town has been packed since Thursday The downtown Austin Hotels were getting 600 to 15 hundred dollars a night and they're at 100 percent occupancy. I have a downtown Condo on the 29 floor and the association put out the word people would be willing to pay 3 to 5 thousand a night depending on size. Not interested. No strangers messing with my audio equipment.

Lucky fella to attend the race -- yep, perfect weather and I might add a pretty dang good track for Formula 1 (at least much better than the track built at Indy - which was a disgrace to drivers & fans).

Have fun & enjoy.

Driver introduction was awesome -- only in the USA, as you'll never see something similar anywhere else in Formula One.

Well done -- John Malone probably had a say in the uniqueness of the pre-event.

Congrats to Lewis Hamilton (Mercedes) but the driver of the event was Max Verstappen (Red Bull Racing Tag Heuer) who came from 17th (15 place grid penalty) to actually pass Kimi Raikkonen 2 turns before final straight & checker flag to pick up 3d and thus a podium --- but a 5 second penalty incurred after running off the track resulted in 3d place going to Kimi.

Finish: Mercedes, Ferrari, Ferrari

Great race.

Best Sir,

Bob
