Just quietly I think the Williams car should probably sit around where the Redbull was early season, the two drivers are just so bad it looks like a much worse car.

Wirth1000 posted:Ok, it wasn't a fluke as that race was pure attrition and keeping your nose clean and he maintained the pace well but still gently caress him. and he still got pipped by Bottas for 2nd at the end. He shouldn't be remembered for getting 3rd well. He should be remembered for being given a gimme 2nd and losing it pathetically.

If Massa's car hadn't conked out he would've won that race, but unfortunately we live in the bad timeline

Massa deserves everything he gets for unretiring, up to and including the ear parasite that is currently chewing on rotten spring-tenderised bits of brain

Red Bull have been consistently the third best team, it just so happens that they're nowhere near the top 2. Williams' drivers aren't good, but they're not that bad. If you're a Williams fan and you want to feel bad, just give it a second and remember that two years ago was as good as Williams has been for like a decade and realistically that's as close as they're going to get for the next decade.

Huh. How long has Motogp had picture in picture? They just showed onboard from teh leader on a small screen attached to the relative timing/order board while showing an ongoing battle on the main part of the screen. Neat trick, and makes F1 look even more amateurish with their media management.

Also a rider just got a position penalty for unsafe release. Novel idea instead of a flat time penalty/drivethrough.

MotoGP is the gold standard of racing production and availability, their app is great, the TV production for their races is easily better than F1. Nobody does it better.

It's going to be a bittersweet day when F1 releases their own streaming service, in the same vein as MotoGP, and the English commentators are loving Croft and Brundle.

I ran across an old friend of mine and he said he doesn't watch F1 on tv anymore. He loves Brundle and looks for a stream just to get his ommentary.

This owns. quote:Commentators too. They actually pay good commentators with knowledge and experience to commentate well. Another novel idea. eeeeh I don't know. They used to suck off the british riders excessively but they do seem to have toned it down a bit. Still noticable though.

Sky should just hand over the F1 to their cricket production team and commentators and have done with it.

Darrell Waltrip's NASCAR commentary is, conservatively, 67 million times better than Brundle's F1 commentary.

If the thread title refers to Our Kevin's foul-mouthed tirade, why is it "honey" and not "mate"? He said "suck my balls, mate" Unless I have missed some sort of "dank meme" that you kids know about?

You know they can say stuff like "director, please play back x from y angle in slow motion" and then as if by wizardry it will appear in a little box on the TV. Fair enough. I mean people can make watching baseball interesting here, it takes a bit of practice, a brilliant thing called pacing, and not being "Old Man Yells at Cloud" all the time. Something that is done here in the US, at least on the radio broadcasts (and the NASCAR TV broadcast this weekend), is turn reporters. Having a team of reporters at the major corners helps cover the action better, and gets the old whiny men to shut up more. Obviously I also don't watch Sky, so if they do do turn reporters, oh well  .In before Gonzo goes "WE SHOULDN'T DO ANYTHING INDY OR NASCAR DOES".

Lasted about 18 hours and not a lot seemed to happen but the atmosphere was great. I've heard the same said about cricket, but never tried it. I even know an ex-England player who always berated me for not giving it a go
