"haha, dogs can't smoke!"

It is very funny that he can't go round his home track without putting it in the wall, but gently caress me that course looks so much better with those tiny old cars.

Those tiny old cars also look terrible. Just like everything related to Monaco.

The supposed “greatest driver of all time” should be able to drag a dogshit car onto the podium.

You could probably replace the engines on container ships with modular nuclear reactors, but the public perception on nuclear is so hosed that it’s actually damaging to the environment.

clearly we need nuclear powered f1 cars to advance the technology and shift public opinion

Good news, Formula One fans! The Saudi Arabian government is making its own coffee now so we can discuss grinding Saudi Coffee beans while watching Saudi ads for Saudi oil companies at Saudi grands prixs. The future is here and we rejoice.

Whoa, this is a take. But at least they have some wonderful enormous wide rear tires in that era. If those mid-70s big air box cars aren’t your fave, which older ones are?

Either pre-wings or very early 70s. Jacky Ickx's 312B that he was demoing along side Leclerc looks miles better to me.

I see the article saying "disc" but none of those visible parts look like pieces of a shattered disc, they look like pads and backing plates or something
