Disappointed at F1 archives for only having the 10 minute long condensed newsreel versions of most of their 84 and 85 season races. While there's a bit of nostalgia in remembering these segments being put in to old news broadcasts, I believe I have spoiled some of these races by seeing them in short. I could have looked elsewhere to find them but the whole point of this package was meant to be convenience.

There are some races I get to see in the hour long form, the first of which I am watching now: a very wet Monaco. Hopefully they chose to put this one in its larger form for some reason, like it being interesting perhaps, but wet Monaco just sounds like a disaster.

Would you say you're pisted off about it

I think there's something to be said for the convenience and safety of this well trodden site. It offers the thrill of the old seasons and circuits without the uncertainty of what might lurk inside of the wild of the wider web. While the video quality is far from pristine, I think I'd favour this over the rockier route of finding these videos myself.

Looking at my illegal files I've got the 86, 89, 90, 91, 92 and 93 seasons. Dunno what happened to the 87 and 88 ones because I definitely remember watching them years ago

if there was some way of transferring these illegal files to someone else then idk

F1DriverQuidenBerg

I like '86 quite a lot because Piquet didn't have the outright speed but was incredibly loving consistent and it paid dividends by the year end. You also get to see a really loving good battle between him and Senna that ends with him flipping Senna off while passing him with the brakes on full lock.

'90 was really cool too cause you had Prost at Ferrari with the paddle shifters and it felt pretty close throughout the season. 91, 92 and 93 never really held a ton of interest for me for whatever reason.

F1DriverQuidenBerg
Jan 19, 2014

‘86 also owned because you saw some of the teams in the turbo era getting way more creative to find performance advantages so you’d have poo poo like Williams and I think Lotus running active suspension and traction control poo poo and then Benetton bypassed BMW’s own fuel injection programming and having this insane amount of power.

For what it's worth I felt the same way. I think they're still in the process of digitizing their archives. This site purports to be tracking the archive contents, and they just added two full 2008 races in the last couple weeks. I'm hopeful eventually everything will have several different levels of review package, but for now I'm just plowing through watching whatever the longest bit of footage is.

You definitely do get way less of a feel for the whole season when each race only gets ten minutes.

I think I read somewhere that the spending cap includes driver salaries. That means if you spend 40 million on Hamilton versus 5 million on Russell you actually lose 35 million dollars of car development.

That is not correct, drivers and top three team personnel are excluded from the cap

The wind was sweeping in a bitter cold over the lake Geneva when Charles rang the bell of the villa, his piercing eyes and shock of black hair peering over while he nuzzled into the oversized collar of his jacket.
The rustling of the branches in the garden and the fading winter light made him feel a certain eeriness. This evening he would face the greatest test of his nascent psychic abilities.

To be fair, Max's helmet design -- although it protects a violent and criminal head -- is aesthetically pleasing and sets itself apart from most other drivers' helmets with lighter colors. That plane does not approximate his helmet design and is therefore a very bad plane.
