It depends if that money came early enough for Sauber to develop the car, and indeed how much money that Alfa deal is actually worth. Haas have 2 experienced drivers too, wheras Sauber have a rookie and a garbage fire. Williams have also gone the rookie/garbage fire route but have a better engine and probably a better car. Certainly I can't see Haas beating 8th, because there's no-one left I think they can beat.

I guess the money won't influence the chassis that much because it should have been nearly finished by the time the deal was announced, but I hope they have a bit more money now for in-season development. Regarding Haas: if the rumor is true that they will field a completely new car, it will be interesting to see how good their engineering department is. IIRC, this should be the first "true" Haas chassis without Dallara influence, shouldn't it?

I’m interested to see what design choices they make, if that’s actually the case. Dallara “designed” the VF16, but they used so many Ferrari components that it effectively dictated every dimension of the car.

No I think Haas is a competent lower midfield team. Sauber blows liquid poo poo and as good as young Charlie is that car is going to be an absolute dog. Toro Rosso is going to be assfucked by the giant dildo that is a Honda engine. Mclaren was saying that even if the Renault put out the same power it would still be better because the cooling requirements were considerably better and the whole imprint of the package was less.

Dallara “designed” the VF16, but they used so many Ferrari components that it effectively dictated every dimension of the car. Dimensions, yes, but dimensions don't net you a good car. Also, the Dallara Haas was totally different - aero wise - from the Ferrari. IIRC, Ferrari supplied engine + gearbox and parts or complete rear suspension (which makes sense, considering the fact that the Ferrari engine+gearbox+rear suspension are developed to go with each other). The rest - at least that's what was written in AMuS quite some time ago - came mainly from Dallara, plus two gazillion different brake discs from four hundred different manufacturers for the french guys car. So imo the success (and I would call it a big success, actually, because they didn't suck like every other new team in F1) of the Haas car is not entirely dependant of them getting Ferrari parts and beeing a de-facto Ferrari junior team (which it looks like they aren't any longer, tbh). It looks like Dallara did a rather good job. IIRC, Gene Haas said that they want to become independant as soon as possible in regards of car development. Testing will be interesting.

I didn’t say anything about a good car. Someone wrote an article two years ago listing the wheelbase, rake, etc. of all the 2016 chassis, and the Haas and Ferrari cars were the same. My point is that I’m curious to see what their design philosophy will be once they are given more freedom.

It would surprise me if they go a drastically different route, since they don't have any data to base their setups on. I haven't actively followed what they brought to the last test, only remember their halo beeing covered in a dozen of tiny vortex generators for testing.

Yeah, don't expect anything from Alonso at the stupid dumb American 24 hour event. He's in an noncompetitive slow poo poo out-of-the-top 10 car. This is why for the good of motorsport we must introduce a spec modular engine for different series needs and spec chassis and aero parts for different classes. People come to see the driver win. They don't give a poo poo about cars or car parts. They want to see Alonso hoist the trophy and that's all that matters. A tremendous amount of money is dumped into the motorsport industry and that's absolutely ludicrous. Who are these people? What good does it this give to society? None at loving hell. It's just pointless entertainment at a tremendous cost in terms of the environment and a loss of engineering talent which could be exerted in different sectors which matter in life and money that can be re-budgeted towards, say, cancer research or civil engineering for the future to accommodate for climate change. This bizarre, wasteful spending needs to stop. Mercedes' F1 team has something like over 700 staff. Doing what?! There's only TWO loving CARS ON THE TRACK !!! Contract out an engineering firm, have them develop an engine and a car, and fire everyone else holy poo poo. The amount of money being saved there is ridiculous!

Wirth1000 posted:Yeah, don't expect anything from Alonso at the stupid dumb American 24 hour event. He's in an noncompetitive slow poo poo out-of-the-top 10 car. Yes that was a result of a combination of Ron's fastidious attempts at giving the 2 drivers exact parity (down to a level of detail that should really have been left to the choice of the drivers and their race engineers), Hamilton going rogue and Alonso retaliating. With 2 drivers fighting from the same team for the world title, inevitably one of them saw a loophole and broke ranks - Hamilton. He didn't do his fuel burn-off laps as pre-planned, but went as hard as he could in order to be lighter than Alonso for the quallie laps. So Alonso retaliated by holding him up in the pitlane, preventing him having enough time to get his second quallie lap in. The whole world saw what Alonso did - but it didn't see what had triggered it. It was all set against two drivers fighting for the title, both feeling their efforts were being compromised by Ron. Alonso because he felt Ron had promised him number one status but didn't deliver on that promise, Hamilton because he felt he was being controlled by Ron (and was still mightily hacked off about being called off Alonso at Monaco). Alonso was repeatedly demanding Ron 'do something' to derail Hamilton's title challenge (even suggesting 'run him out of fuel or something', according to a very closely-placed source in the team), Hamilton had heard about this so there was mistrust and paranoia on all sides. Hamilton broke ranks, thereby transitioning from a grateful protege to someone prepared to fight his own corner within the team. There were two bulls in the field, basically - and Ron lost control of them, ironically by trying to control them too closely. That would all have been fine, but for how Alonso reacted afterwards, by threatening to give the FIA the contents of his lap top (about the Ferrari-related industrial espionage) unless Ron 'did something' to derail Hamilton. Although Alonso quickly retracted that threat and apologised, it had led Ron to volunteer information to the FIA that compromised the team. Senior members of McLaren and Merc's Norbert Haug wanted Alonso fired with immediate effect. Ron counselled 'no' - believing that if he did that, Ferrari might offer Alonso to drive for them for the rest of the year and win his title that way. Instead, he was fired after the end of the season.

Human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is a spectrum of conditions caused by infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).[9][10][11] Following initial infection, a person may not notice any symptoms or may experience a brief period of influenza-like illness.[5] Typically, this is followed by a prolonged period with no symptoms.[6] As the infection progresses, it interferes more with the immune system, increasing the risk of common infections like tuberculosis, as well as other opportunistic infections, and tumors that rarely affect people who have working immune systems.[5] These late symptoms of infection are referred to as acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS).[6] This stage is often also associated with weight loss.[6] HIV is spread primarily by unprotected sex (including anal and oral sex), contaminated blood transfusions, hypodermic needles, and from mother to child during pregnancy, delivery, or breastfeeding.[12] Some bodily fluids, such as saliva and tears, do not transmit HIV.[13] Methods of prevention include safe sex, needle exchange programs, treating those who are infected, and male circumcision.[5] Disease in a baby can often be prevented by giving both the mother and child antiretroviral medication.[5] There is no cure or vaccine; however, antiretroviral treatment can slow the course of the disease and may lead to a near-normal life expectancy.[6][7] Treatment is recommended as soon as the diagnosis is made.[14] Without treatment, the average survival time after infection is 11 years.[15] In 2016 about 36.7 million people were living with HIV and it resulted in 1 million deaths.[16] There were 300,000 fewer new HIV cases in 2016 than in 2015.[17] Most of those infected live in sub-Saharan Africa.[5] Between its discovery and 2014 AIDS has caused an estimated 39 million deaths worldwide.[18] HIV/AIDS is considered a pandemic—a disease outbreak which is present over a large area and is actively spreading.[19] HIV is believed to have originated in west-central Africa during the late 19th or early 20th century.[20] AIDS was first recognized by the United States Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) in 1981 and its cause—HIV infection—was identified in the early part of the decade.[21] HIV/AIDS has had a great impact on society, both as an illness and as a source of discrimination.[22] The disease also has large economic impacts.[22] There are many misconceptions about HIV/AIDS such as the belief that it can be transmitted by casual non-sexual contact.[23] The disease has become subject to many controversies involving religion including the Catholic Church's position not to support condom use as prevention.[24] It has attracted international medical and political attention as well as large-scale funding since it was identified in the 1980s.[25]
