Williams probably has the best car of the grid... if only they had used the money somebody mysteriously paid for Bottas on someone with WDC-potential like Palmer they would have an honest chance

I think we've pretty much established Massa as this years MWDC, correct?

Khablam posted:Honda are brute-forcing creation of the most reliable F1 engine, by finding every failure condition possible ahead of time. One of Honda's problems is they're probably not tested enough engines to destruction in the controlled environment of the dyno. Quite frankly, I wouldn't be surprised if in 2016, Mercedes still put more miles on dynos than Honda did.

Pablo, there were rumours that Honda were still using the out of date even then dyno they had in 2007 to develop the new engine .

MattD1zzl3 posted:I honestly think that this thread doesn't belong in sports argument Stadium. More like fyad or GBS Its a culture that has grown here over many years. Many times, probably 3 or 4, I've come in here and posted a bit and then gone away when the sheer shitposting diarrhea overcame me. When I first came I made some big effort post about Ferrari without realizing I was basically addressing a bunch of Brits and was told to gently caress off. F1 is some opaque poo poo. Even mid season youre hearing the same old poo poo, you have no real idea what they're doing with the cars and the driving is so niche that there is almost no relation to what you do with a normal car. Being an F1 fan is pretty much making sweeping generalizations from your experience, perhaps referencing some long gone event, then butting heads with another fan whose generalizations are at odds with yours. There isn't so much actual technical debate and my gf who now loves F1 after exposing her over the last couple of years usually makes better predictions than I do, just because I've got old and crazy ideas like the red cars might actually do well. I bought some Ferrari shoes to drive in. They fell apart quickly. My gf looked at them and loled and said 'just like a real Ferrari! Overpriced and falls apart!'. I cried a little inside while I forced a laugh at her joke. edit: she also thinks the red livery is classically obnoxiously Italian. I love her but sometimes it's hard. edit2: so the point is jesus gently caress Ferrari can you please pull goddamn finger out.

This thread is about the least Brit dominated F1 discussion on the internet, there's like 3 of us. It's also just about Lewis fan free . I'm sorry your girlfriend is too good for you, and I hope your fatal Ferraritis doesn't cause you too much distress.

Hehe, nah it's all good in here at the moment. This is the longest I've stayed. I'm enjoying it so far. I've just lurked the thread sometimes because there is still consistently good posting about the sport. Hey, there is national rivalry in our sport. It's because it's the true World Drivers Championship and not some inflated national series (NASCAR/Indy/Supercars.. WHATEVER). Lewis is also a loving spectacular driver and on track one of my favorites, but I can't reconcile that anywhere else. edit: Liberty Media is also good if it just gets more Americans into it. Haas is great for the same reason. F1 is great but it's a little hollow when we don't have great American teams and drivers. Tony Montana fucked around with this message at 00:22 on Mar 8, 2017 |

Every loudly and commonly anti-ferrari poster I can point to ITT is American FYI. They're just a shitshow and it doesn't take bias to go "yep, completely random strategy at odds with any sense of the rest of the field hasn't played out THIS time, but maybe we'll RNG the laps we pit on and one time it'll work".

I am a british and I don't care what car wins, think I want either Massa or Alonso to do well this year. Possibly because I'm old and gently caress young people.

But as an F1 fan and a fan of the sport, that personal poo poo shouldn't prevent me from appreciating the fact he has pulled some pretty amazing poo poo while I've been watching, multiple times.

wicka posted:Serious question: is anyone itt still a Hamilton fan? His on-the-track performance is great, and he earned my respect for trying to back Nico out of the WDC in the last race. He's completely insufferable as a personality though, and is so loud with it that even if I wanted to ignore it I couldn't. Plenty of decent blokes on the grid to actually root for instead.

It was a friend of his who read the script and then said that this is a lot like Starship Troopers, just not taking the piss instead worshipping fascism - so he bought the rights to Starship Troopers and just slapped its name on it. Cool story, bro, but that's not how it works.

Lewis is one hell of a driver and also one hell of an obnoxious baby. Agreed with Khablam that there are plenty of non-obnoxious people to support on the grid.

Like mad max. such a good lad, he gave up his seat in first class because it was double booked and sat by the toilet in coach and didn't give a gently caress. He's a good boy and a good driver.
