Delish F1

Everyone got into the act for F1 including this cupcake shop on Third (Delish Bakery).

F1 Brings Cars

Last weekend was F1 at the Circuit of Americas track. This F1 car was in the lobby of the Stephen F. Austin hotel!

F1 at Oil Can Harry's

I didn't notice this until after F1 was over but Oil Can Harry's got into the spirit of car racing.

F1 is Over

After F1 I noticed this mural at Hangar Cocktail Lounge.

F1 Car

This one was being exhibited at Fan Fest. Those drivers sure have to be skinny, don't they?

Million Dollar Car

This car appeared in front of the Four Seasons during F1. We were told that it cost over a million dollars. It is a Hennessey. Cars don't really interest me, but this one was attracting lots of looks.

Swag

There was some swag for sale at the Four Seasons during F1. It amuses me that they are peddling a book "How to be a Cowboy."

Lamborghinis

During F1, a bevy of Lamborghinis took over the Ballet Austin driveway. (The Ballet Austin Dance Education Center was the site of one of the fancy late night parties.) The air intake in front of the back wheel (I guess that's what it is) fascinated me. F1 and its fantastic car displays are gone. Back to normal Austin weirdness.

Ferrari

During the Formula One Week these Ferraris took pride of place along the driveway of the Four Seasons hotel.

Car Checking In

There is a car racing thing called F1. Grand Prix. Something. Formula One. This has come to Austin with the construction of a huge track and complex near Elroy. Every November for a weekend for ten years this race will come to our area. I don't know much about it, but we live downtown and so have been on the periphery of the hoopla. A couple of days ago we went over to the historic Stephen F. Austin hotel where they had managed to get an F1 car into the lobby through door in the background.
