I wanna gently caress poo poo up in a Scania L140 or Volvo F88

I don't really like Scanias that much but it's nice to see them adding new content. I can't be bothered with anything older than early 90's because the older stuff has barely any torque. I did find a nice Scania 1 series mod though.

The only reason Hamilton Passed Vettel is because Hamilton is a cheat and Mercedes have an illegal car.

They are making them softer all around, to get "a better show". It's hosed up. Will the BWT hypersoft actually survive warmup before exploding?

Those are just the dry tarmac tires. They haven't shown the inter/super-inter/wet/superwet/ultrawet/gravel/ice tires yet.

They might? Pirelli has typically offered harder/longer lasting tyres in the first year of a significant regulation change and this year was expected to produce very high corner speeds so it wouldn't surprise me if they were conservative.

If you can't remember the colours of the Pirelli colourblind rainbow, just remember the simple mnemonic Only Big Wankers Yank Rich People's Penises

Would it really have been superhard to order the colours correctly and keep blue for the wet tyre?

FIA should also introduce randomized, mandatory tire pressures (random per team). I mean, think about the show it would provide, right? Oh, and performance weights! Gimme the show I deserve!

Sounds like they should introduce storylines in F1 then. Make it a huge scripted "behind the scenes" soap opera that plays on Tuesdays & Thursdays (so it doesn't overlap with WWE) and have drivers getting in each other's faces about poo poo, with little scuffles and being all "we'll settle this on track on Sunday."

gently caress it, make the races scripted too.

If you feel that Lewis Hamilton is being unfairly maligned for exploiting shady (but perfectly legal) tax loopholes, perhaps you'll permit us to malign him for being a charmless tween?

Someone who went to school with Lewis Hamilton remembers the time they went up to him in the playground during his formative Go Kart years and enthusiastically said, "Hey, Lewis! I saw you on Blue Peter last night!"

To which Hamilton replied, "What the gently caress you watching Blue Peter for?" – and walked off.
