I like the new gyro-stabilized camera behind the driver's helmet. Gives a good idea of how much banking some of the corners have.

It’s really awesome to see but I wonder if some viewers get motion sickness from it.

Yeah, it looked great in the summary. Are there any images of how it looks on the cars? Because it'd be awesome if they had that angle during the race. Just imagine the starts.

Looks like F1 put up an article and a short video clip regarding it: https://www.formula1.com/en/latest/article.watch-ride-onboard-with-lewis-hamilton-around-suzuka-with-new-dynamic-camera.u7LwcRQgIKPzI5x50X2qP.html

Will Buxton points to it in the video.

Dang, that's a lot of damage for Gasly. Long night for Alpine mechanics.

I think he hit the wall in the worst possible angle, because on the replay it didn't look like it was going to be a big crash.
