Tsaedje posted:It also serves to partially protect the head from things getting in under the halo, so it's good with things like going into a barrier. Obviously it can't do that in some cases, like a small cross sectional object coming in past it, but then no other position of spars would be effective in that regard either. This is a really good point, it puts the leading edge of the halo more so in front of where the driver's helmet is. that might not matter for incidents where something lands from on top, but it may have made a big difference for, say, Grosjean's accident in Bahrain, where the halo basically split the guardrails apart by itself. might have been a different matter if those edges were at 10 and 2.

From the helmet cam it almost seemed like the middle was the best spot to put the halo support, because the drivers were usually looking at the sides. Either their mirrors, the sides of the track for braking points, or the apex of the turn. But yeah probably also safer.

This is a very Babe Ruth 1918 take, Honda’s performance for literal years up to that point had been total poo poo and it took a lot of screwing around in a throw away team whose owners didn’t care about it (Toro Rosso) before Honda became viable. And then only Adrian The Great could have carried those engines to victory. What I’m saying is Zak is a good lad who means well and the greatest American and will soon join Toto among the ranks of the good winning team principals.

They then pulled out all of the stops and clean sheet designed it again to make the current one. It's a pretty hot take to say McLaren couldn't see the forest for the trees when they told Honda to pound sand. They had multiple years of not being able to finish a race with Honda, and even after Honda went to TR it still took them another 3 years before they made anything competitive.

Finished Spain 2016. Great race: 1) Hamilton ping-ponging himself and Rosberg out 2) Lauda just straight up telling reporters it was Hamilton's fault before the two are even back at the pit 2) Vettel, Kimi, Ricciardo and Verstappen fight at the top 4) Ricciardo having a puncture in the last laps after fighting back to the top 3) Didn't realize they demoted Kvyat after the first 5 races and promoted Verstappen to RB where he goes directly into a 1. place in his first race for them - that kid might become WDC one day.

If you have the spurs at 10 and 2 it causes the thing it hits to fold into a point directly aimed at the middle of the drivers face.

The 2018 happened and by the end of the year the MCL33 couldn't reliably make it out of Q3. Uh, did you watch 2019-2020? Both the Honda powered teams were competitive, and the the Honda B-Team has as many wins as McLaren does from 2018-2021.

The Honda engine was better until Brazil of this year. The Mercedes engines also lost a ton of power as they aged - which cost McLaren 3rd in the CC. McLaren look like idiots and will NEVER win another championship.  PS. Remember the time McLaren was a works Mercedes-Benz team for 15 years and won one (1) CC? Frauds IMO.
