I don't actually follow F1 even though it used to? be a national pastime. Maybe I did, as a kid, casually, so my experience of F1 as an adult:
- Prior to Netflix: Boring to actually watch
- During watching the Netflix doc: Hey maybe there are interesting factors in this, but they can't convey drama in actual races so... probably still boring? Also Verstappen seems like a proper dick. Also Williams is depressing. Did you just make a loving tea boy joke you dick? I almost liked you.
- Checking OP: Everyone is actually a dick? Except maybe Räikkönen
- Skimming thread: Don't follow F1, it's suffering.

The only reason to follow F1 is so you can understand the thread. The thread is the real draw.

Since I started watching in 2014 one team has won 80 percent of the races. F1 is bad.

I can't wait for the inevitable Reddit thread: "Hey guys! New fan here, just finished watching the Netflix series and loved it, can't wait to root on the Haas boys this year. Quick question though - what's the deal with the cast iron/Teflon debate?"

GP2ex wanted to take his cast iron wok to Berlin.

He was already well over weight on his luggage at that point, and I was still trying to cram all his computer gear into his carry on when he mentioned it.

I'm not sure where I was going with that, but cast iron is pretty good.

I think Hideo Kojima’s Motor Formula One: Drag Reducing Action has had plenty of drama

Felipe Massa: A driver robbed of his future

Kimi: A Finn deprived of most of his words

Max: A youth who curses his fate

Stroll Face: A kid without much of a past

Honda: Technocrats trying to stand on their own feet.

Vettel: A rival living a lie.

Shoe Drinker: A bogan denied his home race.

Those who “pay drive.”

Teflon is for eggs and delicate fish.

Cast iron is for anytime you want a really good sear and is pretty good for a lot of other things, too.

A good stainless steel pan with an aluminum bottom or (preferably) clad core is probably the most versatile of all.

A lotta restaurants use mostly cheapass all-aluminum saute pans, so they're probably pretty functional, too.

Apparently work started today on the Hanoi F1 track in Vietnam. Expected to be finished by March next year, ready to race in April.

Predictions on how this first race is going to unfold? Track falls apart before Qualifying even takes place?

Edit: The description gives me so much hope for the race being exciting etc....

The circuit is described as a "unique hybrid layout" with "a real desire to steer away from humdrum 90-degree road-junction type corners and foster a layout that facilitates wheel-to-wheel racing while retaining a closed-in street feel that makes city race tracks so demanding for drivers".

A layout of the Hermann Tilke-designed track was published by Formula One, which said the opening corners are based on Turns 1 and 2 at the Nurburgring while other sections take inspiration from Monaco, Suzuka and Malaysia's Sepang circuit. There is also a 1.5km straight, which will see cars top out at 335km/h (208 mph) before a heavy braking zone.

Also.... wtf is going on with the forums....

Why not. It might be interesting like Baku.
