GBS USED to be good, then something happened with the rules or GBS 2.0 or whatever and it was like a back door from FYAD opened and spilled in and now I can barely convince myself to scroll through the front page because 4 out of 5 threads are something like "I saw a dog" or "Say a thing".

It still throws up the occasional gem and I shall forgive its shortcomings for that.

Alonso wants 3 races outside the f1 calendar. I think that would change if the Mclaren Renault is competitive, but you never know.

Steampunk LH44 Andrew Benson is more likeable than I anticipated.

Hey, I haven't seen this mentioned, but it looks like Porsche settled with Paul Walker's daughter for an undisclosed amount. I like Walker, and I feel bad for his daughter, but I really don't think Porsche should have any liability for his death as a passenger in a car that was doing "80 - 93mph in a 40 zone". Apparently her claim was that he survived the initial crash, but couldn't get his seat belt off to get out of the car, and that the design flaw was what killed him. It seems unlikely, but I guess I'm not a crash investigator. I've also seen comments (no verification of accuracy) that the car had been sold multiple times on the used market and was possibly not properly maintained, including being on old tires. Anyway, just a car related thing. Discuss. Or not.

This was confirmed by the DOT's investigation, the tires were the original ones that came on the car and it wasn't maintained. The brakes were shot as well, apparently the rotor was below spec meaning it should've been replaced. Surprised Porsche settled given how frivolous it seemed given the results of the DOT investigation.

I'm sure we can find an interesting photo of noted RenaultSport F1 figurehead Alain Prost.

He's a big name, the case could've done even more damage to the VAG-Porsche brand than the ongoing (how the gently caress is it still ongoing, like how are there still more VAG cars to bust for cheating on emissions tests) emissions scandal.
