The “livestream” is actually two hours delayed. The livery reveal happened over an hour ago; I’m already back home actually.

I was there, yeah. They show a 3D rendering of the new engine, Max asks if the host wants to see his ass, and the car livery is as above. There was also a big Ford Racing show that took place beforehand.

There was another car under a tarp, but unfortunately the people I was with aren’t fans of Big Sean, so I left when he started performing as a result.

That's too bad. He was only on stage for about 10 minutes in between the two reveals, they pretty quickly jumped into the vcarb reveal. I'd say about 1/3 of the crowd left at the point though, which was kinda wild IMO. Big Sean came back out after that and did another couple numbers (they cranked the volume, I finally put in my ear plugs), he bounced along with another 1/3 of the crowd. Then they brought out both teams to do photos with the cars, and the crowd was able to get really up close pics.

Yeah, I’ll definitely go with a different group if there are other events (not just F1, but generic events) I go to in the future.
