Big Huski Boi posted:I think McLaren's shareholders told them no. I don't think Brown is that unbelievably stupid, he's done too good of a job with the F1 team. Yeah, I have to imagine the willingness to fund a full-season dried up substantially after the bump fiasco. Zak Brown did at least talk up running the Indy road course race, which I was already surprised they didn’t consider doing this year. I know most of the other one-offs don’t do it either, but if you have the resources of McLaren, why not?

Space Racist posted:Yeah, I have to imagine the willingness to fund a full-season dried up substantially after the bump fiasco. Running the road course for just practice and not qualifying would have been a great opportunity to figure out their tire pressure sensors were wrong and they were having metric/imperial problems. The lack of preparation was something you expected from an early 80s team with a four year old March, not any team in 2019, let alone McLaren. Although in hindsight it is a very McLaren thing to do.

Unless they bought a setup sheet for the road course, they wouldn't have run into the metrification problem. They got a qual setup that had dinensions in inches while everything else they'd done on their own was metric native.

 Field seems pretty spread out, and then you notice the gap between first and second. Yikes.

Yeah, but I dont have to deal with them randomly in other poo poo also. gently caress, i was at an appointment the other day and the waiting room had some guy fieri show on. It was Rutledge showing him around a restaurant. It's hard to imagine a better case for a structure fire.

Really love having to leave before the finish because if the weather delay, and then the DVR doesn't catch the channel change with 20 minutes to go.
