      IT'S RAWE CEEK! Welcome back to Formula 1, everyone! Hopefully everyone enjoyed the various holidays and having a normal sleep schedule on the weekends over the last few months. That said, I don't need F1 to mess with my weekend sleeping plans 😴

      I meant to post earlier in the week about predictions for 2026, but I forgot/got busy/slept, so guess I'll just ask some here.

      1. Who will win this first race?
      2. Will our sole rookie this year, Arvin Lindblad (Racing Bulls), podium this year?
      3. Will Niko Hulkenberg get another podium?
      4. Will we hear Fernando Alonso scream about a "GP2 Engine" again?
      5. Which team wins the Constructors Championship?
      6. Does Lando Norris successfully defend his championship?
      7. If not, who wins the Drivers Championship?

      Feel free to add any other predictions!

      As the title of the post asked, is there anything that you are no longer a fan of/support?

      Feel free to share any experiences you have that made you change your mind on something. These could something smaller such as deciding to no longer support or engage with a brand due to store clerk being a bit rude to you in one interaction, to you disliking the actions or direction taken by a corporation/creator/franchise.

      I did want to note that while this thread can obviously veer in to the negative based on the question, it doesn't have to be. You could no longer being a fan of something could be due to your tastes changing over the years, or a life experience making you decide you want to change your habits.
