It certainly works well in Gold Class for immersion if you don’t do 4X.. hell do both!

The thought had crossed my mind

A few things to flag then -:

• If strobe lighting effects are a problem, you may wish to skip it.
• If you wear glasses, be aware that small amounts of water may be splashed at you. You’re not going to be saturated - or anywhere near that - but depending on the scene, they do sometimes use water spray/squirts. I could imagine if there are any wet track scenes that there will be some water in use. Also champagne “spray”
• If you get motion sick on amusement rides, 4DX may not be for you.

Otherwise, have fun!

Thanks....sounds great!

Saw it today, 4DX version...well, that was interesting, haha....will watch it again without the physical additives as well
Really enjoyed the movie, @MARTINE good summary a few posts above.

Now for tonights race at the Red Bull Ring....Oscar a bit unlucky at the end of QF, thanks Gasly, but Lando has been on the gun all weekend. Bring it on

Beat me to it! I was looking at the session availability and it was horrible so have resolved to check it out later this week instead. Looking forward to comparing notes on the experience Hope you generally enjoyed the novelty of 4DX in any case.

Indeed, very unfortunate for Oscar but I suspect front row was the best he would've managed this weekend. Still, silver linings are that he starts from the clean side of the grid and DRS is effective at this circuit with good passing opportunities.

Lando always fast
Oscar strategic

Oh dear, poor Carlos

By my calculations, the winner will be declared as the last car standing after approximately 14 laps (at the current rate of attrition). Crazy start!!

Watching movie tomorrow at Imax Sydney tomorrow.. so no 4DX, but a big screen.

Have watched F1Will's YT, though I don't think I'll notice the car inconsistencies between years as much as him

Deserved win for NOR. Solid second for PIA.

Yep, PIA sure made him work for it and as much as I wanted to see him pip NOR at the death, fair to say it has been NOR's weekend. Kudos to McLaren for letting them race and kudos to both PIA and NOR for racing hard but fair. Thankfully PIA managed to pull up in time when attempting his T4 lunge

Except for VER getting drilled, about the results I expected.
3 place grid drop for ANT next week
Good day for LAW.
I missed Martin and Crofty commentating.

Quite an entertaining race all things told.
Lando deserved it, handled Oscar's pressure well.
Oscar had a pretty good sunday, may have been different with the 4 second tyre delta he was advised of vs the 6.5sec he got, and Colapinto escorting him into the dirt while being lapped. Briatore must be shaking his head a little after the hasty Doohan decision..

Lando " I need some pace, help please" as Oscar loomed in the mirrors.

yeah, the 4DX was a worthwhile experience!

Yeah, I don't think we can say (as of now, at least) that the COL experiment has been a success

Damn the shorts came out fast.

Damn the shorts came out fast.

The voices are superb
Awaiting Max’s strangled voice when Kimmy played dodgems!

I'm sure we all knew immediately that that particular radio exchange was going to be lampooned

Jokes aside, I would love to have been a fly on the wall for that aspect of the engineering debrief. Would have made for an interesting discussion.

There was even the earlier one (can't remember if it was LEC or HAM) where they boxed straight into traffic because it was the "optimal" lap to box.

Indeed. Have it in my head that it was LEC, but similarly not 100% certain.
