I paid the $3/month for the F1TV archives access and am working through the 1981 season now and it's interesting. Different cars are appreciably different looking and there's slightly more overtaking than now. Circuit design seems to be actively hostile to driver, marshal, and spectator safety. Coverage is pretty meh because the commentators are always scrambling to adjust to the video feed, which changes away from interesting things to irrelevant shots of Nelson Piquet lapping the field. No lap numbers and very infrequent timing graphics. The footage itself is surprisingly good for being 40 year old video.

Restricting the freedom of movement was one of the reasons for brexit. They didn't expect it to be used against them. I don't think I ever want to go back to the UK.

Word on the street is that the new strain of COVID comes from Stevenage and is the most #blessed strain, it has 7x WDC and GOAT DNA in it. That's enough to change me into an anti-vaxxer.

Azza Bamboo posted:I had no idea this existed but drat I'm in. The older races basically all have a one hour "In Review" condensed race package. Some also have a misleadingly named "extended highlight" package, which is 20-40 mins. A few of the classic races have the full event available (81 Britain and 81 Vegas for example), which becomes more common as we approach the present. I think all seasons from 2008 on have all races fully available. The "In Review" packages get a lot shorter in later seasons (Australia 2005 is only like 15 mins). I can't believe how often the marshals just leave retired cars at the trackside, and how there's no safety car, so marshals being passed at speed on the track happens all the time.

I'm watching USA West RN but I'm aware that, later in this season, a mechanic tries to restart a car on the track and ends up getting sandwiched between it and a car that rear ends it. At no point before or after the collision do the marshals stop that race. The drivers do it themselves. I only know that because there was a documentary about safety a while back that mentioned how there was a driver walkout in the 81 season over mechanics who got injured/killed.

Yeah that's the Belgium start I referenced. Technically the marshalls did stop the race (despite not having authority to do so) but not until the pack had already passed the mechanic lying in the start straight once. The marshalls basically just flooded the track, waving at the drivers as they came around at the end of the first lap. The drivers waved back but as you said, they stopped at the end of the second lap. The race "clerk" did nothing to stop the race. The mechanic/driver walkout (which was in response to a mechanic getting run over the day before) happened immediately before the start while cars were on the grid, and minorly contributed to it by delaying and confusing the formation lap. Piquet and some others missed their start boxes and so had to go around again, prompting some drivers on the grid to turn off their engines to prevent overheating. Patrese was one of them and his car refused to start back up, so his mechanic jumped over the wall with the starter to get him going. The race controller started the race anyway and Patrese's own teammate rear-ended him, with the mechanic getting caught in between. He survived, but the mechanic who was run over the day before died the day after the race. I'd read about the incident before I watched and I expected the footage to be censored but NOPE, so viewer discretion is advised. bgreman fucked around with this message at 13:20 on Dec 21, 2020 |

Watching old races makes me appreciate how much the camerawork and telemetry has come on since 1981. The commentator is carrying this.
