Any news on how it's going? I know we won't know anything for real until quali at Melbourne, but are there rumours of Adrian building some fantastic machine?

He had a real full time job doing something and ran the site on a part time basis as just a fan. Then a few years back he decided to go full time and this suddenly skyrockted his ego to give the impression that he's some sort of actual influential voice in F1. He's just some arrogant rear end in a top hat running a site with font sizes way too loving big. I can't stand to read that site for more than a couple days cause of how opinionated all the pieces can get and his bleeding heart 'think of the fans!~!!!!!' idea that he's some sort of voice for the people.

daslog posted:The usual f1 websites seem to be speculating that the new tires and new car design will result in more Follow the Leader because of the aero. It's hardly speculation, it's basically a nailed on fact. Improving mechanical grip is the way forward and simplifying the aero regulations so that teams don't have 846 loving elements on the front wing. Bring back FRIC and allow developments on trick suspensions imo.

"It's nearly time for RB12 o'clock" and one of the other race teams (Rally?) have had a big livery redesign with it being red and purple instead of purple and red.

In semi-related news McLaren are opening up a new car manufacturing plant in Sheffield. One of the lads I went to school with and who is currently working in Germany for Mercedes is applying which is nice.

Normally I wouldn't link stuff like this, but if you ever wanted reminding that F1 is and has long been a money circus, here's (the recently late) Tara Palmer-Tomkinson with a story about Flavio "Isn't he Formula 1?" Briatore going to get coffee http://www.bbc.com/news/video_and_audio/headlines/38912978#video-38912978

The exciting change will be that the car is less bad.

Being more bad is also an exciting change It would actually be pretty funny if McLaren put together a car capable of winning races the first year after Ron

Norns posted:Synergy Shut the gently caress up. When our state electrical supplier was privatised by a conservative/right wing government it was split from SECWA (State Electrical Commission Western Australia) into "Western Power" (generators, lines and wholesale) and into "Synergy" as their retailer (plus whatever private company wanted to buy from 'western power' and sell retail.) The name synergy loving sucks as a business mantra as it was beforehand. Googling the term now leads to heaps of tosser real estate or supplements and therapeutics poo poo stains But I can't escape the ex government electrical supplier. Can you imagine how bad it feels to pay a company called loving "synergy" every 2 months? loving sucks and I hate being reminded of it in any way.
