I used to think Vettel's poo poo performance that season was a ploy to get out of his Red Bull contract, which allegedly had performance-related get-outs for him. However, evidence has since come to light that he is in fact a fraudulent pissbaby who spins like our very own track day bro!

Yeah, but Vettel manages to spin with good tyres.

GP Bikes by Piboso is the only motorcycle simulation which does the steering realistically because you directly control the in-game handlebars with your inputs and the movement of the VR headset is used to control the balance of the rider.

That's awesome. We were talking in the sim racing thread awhile back about how VR Moto wasn't really a thing because it was harder to do then cars.

That's a fanatec motor with a custom wheel, they should really sell a handlebar setup.

The problem though is you really need whatever you're sitting on to push you back up to the middle based on how you're turning the bike, so that requires some serious motors.

But there's expensive motion platforms for sim racing, you'd think there'd definitely be a niche audience for motorcycle sim equipment. And I guess there's at least one now!

My friend who seems to have gone Semi Pro racing cars has been using, and I believe partly sponsored by, a driving VR company. Their setup looks really cool and I would love to give it a go one day.

I will not countenance Max Chilton being considered anything other than complete poo poo, even in jest

Alonso has the same chance of winning the Indy 500 as any other driver who is lucky enough to have pitted just before the final yellow flag of the race

I was seriously bummed when his engine blew in 2017. Like, after all the Honda bullshit in F1 and then he tries the 500 and his fuckin’ Honda engine blows. First Indy 500 I’d ever watched.

They've been desperately trying to get a Dutch GP ever since Max won on his debut for Red Bull. It's kind of overdue.

Unironically, yes, considering there's loving entire swarms of them at almost every single race since Max showed up.

And almost limitless numbers waiting behind them. The modern tech and industrial interests like Google and GM see China and India as the markets of the future, but they're fools. They don't see the vast expanse of the low countries and that oversight will be their undoing

Just because they're a possible fan base doesn't mean we should cater to them.
I for one am in full support of just flooding the Netherlands and doing away with that problem. Then Max can go back to being the Belgian that he is and we can not have swathes of annoying fucks wearing orange at every loving race.

Also it looks like Silverstone is returning which means even more of one of the most garbage tracks in one of the most garbage countries.

This is not a good news day.
