Formula 1 was back this weekend after its summer break with the Dutch Grand Prix. Since it returned to the calendar in 2021, Red Bull's Max Verstappen has dominated his home race with pole and the win each year, but McLaren's upgrades seem to be working better than Red Bull's at the moment, and Max had to line up behind Lando Norris on the grid. Lando's team mate, Oscar Piastri started in third with George Russell the first of the Mercedes cars in fourth. Ferrari were sixth and tenth, but Lewis Hamilton failed to make the final qualifying session and also got a grid penalty for impeding another driver, so started 13th. Alex Albon had a great qualifying for Williams to initially put his car in eighth, but had to start from the back after the floor of his car was found to be illegal. Lando continued his unfortunate record of poor starts from pole and was overtaken by Max into turn 1. Max stayed ahead until Lando retook the lead on lap 18. Lando then held the lead over Max until the checkered flag to take his second win and the point for fastest lap. He ended up with a winning margin of 23 seconds - the sort of lead that Max used to get. The Ferraris seemed to have had better race pace than they showed in qualifying, finishing in third and fifth and separated by McLaren's Oscar Piastri. George Russell slipped back to finish in seventh with Lewis Hamilton catching up to eighth. McLaren are now catching Red Bull in the Constructors' Championship, but they may be regretting swapping their drivers in the last race as Lando could've been closer to Max in the Drivers' Championship. You can see the race highlights here.

Look it up. It will make your jaw drop.

That's awesome that you love the Dukes enough to go so far as to even get the color under the hood right! Thanks as always for sharing the pictures.

Your next project can be taking that avatar and making a real " General Falcon " and showing us the pics......just before you invite us all to take a ride!!

TY for showing this! I'm amazed and impressed! ( I'm sorry but I'm also a little jealous! )

Ferrari is one of my favorite cars!!

Some more progress Repainted pushbar and licenceplate are on. Also worked hard this weekend repainting the inside of the hood. It's T3 Light Bronze Metallic now, just like the original one. I'm so happy with the result! Went to the process of sanding, primer, basecoat and shiny clearcoat.

Or as they actually said: Boss: "Get me out of here." Luke: "You all right in there, Boss?" Bo: "Rosco?" Rosco: "I'll let you know when everything stops spinning."

I'd be interested but the VCR isn't working. I think I have another one boxed up in the basement. Chatting during an ep is always fun.

That's awesome that you love the Dukes enough to go so far as to even get the color under the hood right! Thanks as always for sharing the pictures. He also figuredd out the right color, which if I'm not mistaken, we had a big argument over one time! Remember that? ( I can't remember WHO but I DO remember the argument over exactly what shade of orange it was!! )

Well Garrett.....I guess it's you and me for now. Just name a time to meet and and let's coordinate the day/time, then we can fig. which episode to watch. ( I'm assuming most of us have most, if not all the seasons on DVD.)

Thank you so much 🙏

Roscoe: "Don't SCUFF that vehicle! That's my SIXTH one this month!!"

Too Many ROSCOS

I'll cooperate if others are in on it. When I tried it , I flew solo....well Roger was with me for a while. We can just do it....me and you? I've got plenty of time. Just give me an advanced notice.

Yeah I bet it would be hard to get everyone to do it.

This would be fun. Have a DOH party chat along!

I think these are all the episodes with Daisy's name in the title. It was one per season except season 6 where she got three! S1E02 'Daisy's Song' S2E17 'Officer Daisy Duke' S3E17 'By-Line, Daisy Duke' S4E01 'Mrs. Daisy Hogg' S5E22 'Daisy's Shotgun Wedding' S6E08 'Targets: Daisy and Lulu' S6E13 'Heiress Daisy Duke' S6E19 'Close Call for Daisy' S7E16 'Enos and Daisy's Wedding' If you want to see Daisy in a French maid's outfit, that's in 'Gold Fever' (S2E02).

I can't seem to find my episode list but if you just Google episodes made between 1979 and 1985 you can pick out episode titles that have Daisy's name in them and that would be a good place to start for the best Catherine eps.

I love Star Wars, and I love the Dukes. I don't know who made this combo, but someone sent it to me YEARS ago. I'm going to build it one day into a model. It'll be great.

I'm glad y'all are trying this again, but I think I'm going to rule myself out due to the time difference and my early schedule.
