Doesn't work Consistently stops working after 5 new tabs. Tried removing and adding again same result.

I like this extenstion, it is the best F1 themed one I have found, however I have found that maybe it needs an update to compensate for the new images that are only displaying a white screen

This is amazing. It's a great way to find awesome F1 images, and you aren't stuck with the same one all the time because it changes every time you open a new tab! -Edit: Still cool, but now a white screen shows up with the image name -Edit 2: I removed the extension then added it back, and it now works Edit 3: It's back to not working. Seems to fix itself when re-installing, but then it goes back to not working after like 5 minutes
