It's always pretty amazing that the engineers are so reluctant to listen to the driver reporting things like "this car suddenly got slower" because the data that they've chosen to look at appears fine

Friet, of course. The very fact that you called it "frites" instead of "patat" proves that Belgium wins.

Did you try to type "mitraillette" and fail?

Returning to the topic of food chat, does the rest of the world not know about friteuses or something? What's up with air fryers. Literally serving a nonexistent market when every decent household has one of these bad boys lying around (usually a hand-me-down from grandma which has been kicking around since 1961)

We all still fry our chips in deep fat fryers, although it’s vegetable oil these days. Air fryers do a cracking roast potato but only inane people who think oven chips are nice would use a air fryer (it’s a mini fan oven not a fryer! Small ovens always cook faster it’s literally the science behind how ovens work!) for chips.


I have a semi industrial deep fat fryer because the regular sized ones give portions for ants.

i mean checo knows he's the #2 driver (although he's #1 in my heart) and probably gets antsy if he doesn't hear back from red bull quickly because they're so focused on max winning the wdc

plus i think it's different when they're complaining about porpoising or under/oversteer or whatever vs. a power issue on a car that has failed to finish several races this year due to powertrain issues; i don't blame the primadonnas for freaking out about potential DNFs and it probably cost him p3

Plenty of extra-obese Americans own deep fryers. Mostly southerners and flyover-country residents.

Air fryers are different. They don't fry, for one thing.

Mercedes have made a car so sensitive that changes in overhead conditions and barometric pressure take it out of the zone.

red bull cheating engine confirmed


quote:

None of that would have been of much use if the Red Bull was not so raceable. As ever, it was faster at the end of the straights. And for the first time, it was not being out-accelerated onto the straights by the Ferrari. Perhaps that weight-saving is beginning to pay off for Red Bull.

All of which meant that Leclerc was vulnerable in the DRS zones. On the ninth lap Verstappen opened his DRS flap on the pit straight and simply launched himself down the inside into Turn 1.
