Does "pesa" mean "heavy" or "weight" in spanish as well because all I can think of is that when I read that name.

Both. Also Pesa means the instrument to measure weight

Every new reveal makes the Williams look even worse

e: the combination between pink, purple and dark silver actually looks pretty good. Not sure about the blue stuff. Overall, I like it though, better than grey/black/red-livery #3284 (apart from the Red Bull black/red testing livery, that's okay)

Where do you see this discount? Can't find anything about it.

Use "F1TV50" in the code section at checkout, it should say if it's applied or not, code is supposedly good until the 17th.

Also Red Bull livery is pretty cool imo, but Toro Rosso still the best looking car on the grid so far again this year.

Scuderia Ferrari, the world’s most prestigious Formula One team, embarked on its historical journey and now in 2019, celebrates its 90th birthday. For the special event, the Maranello team will name the 2019 Formula 1 challenger SF-90 and has created two special logos for the celebrations of 90th anniversary:

Enzo Ferrari had a bike racing team too. When he signed bike/car racer Piero Taruffi, Taruffi raced Enzo's cars & his own Norton. Enzo sacked Taruffi when he beat Enzo's favourite bike racer Giordano Aldrighetto in the 1932 Coppa del Mare race

You know people say that the Honda system is screwed but I think by the rules you can’t harvest and deploy at the same time and Honda runs the Merc style split turbo setup so I don’t exactly see what the issue is with that.

It seems like they don't harvest and deploy at the same time. They switch between both on a 25ms rate. They spool up the turbo by means of MGU-K for 25ms until it reaches the maximum allowed rpms, then let it spin for another 25ms, dumping some energy back into the battery (which else would have been wasted/wouldn't have been harvested with the same efficiency), and switch that on/off during off-throttle. So the drive-train is basically in a high frequent "deploy/harvest" cycle to maximize the harvest time for the batteries...

It might sound good on paper, but even thinking about the physical stress, and even worse, the bad loving sound the engine makes during testing where the whole F1 world listens for the worst engine (and this is the important part, mind you), makes me mad.

e: I'm stupid and meant MGU-H instead of MGU-K...sorry....
