Someone remind me: the same Brits that are making fun of Americans watching DTS are the same ones that were professing their love for some absolutely garbage-tier fast food a few months back, right?

Robots confuse squirrels.


You could pass at The Chase and Coopers and probably down the straights, so that's maybe 3 passing spots which is 3 more than Monaco has. Mostly though Bathurst is super limited in its race dates and we ain't giving up the 1000 or 12h to accomodate F1 making GBS threads up the mountain.

Alright here's the video of the bathurst lap, I think it'd be amazing to watch now that I've driven it for several laps. This is in iRacing, using the merc W12 from last year, soft tires and wasn't really actively managing the hybrid deployment. Did a 1:35.94 and I think the actual drivers would be closer to a 1:25 in last year's cars. I think in the current gen cars it would be a lot of locked up big diameter wheels hitting walls.

The video quality sucks from the export from the sim, and I had to split it up because imgur doesn't let you upload videos longer than 1min but here you go:

Lewis has been an actor, starred in a video game, has a singing career, multi time f1 world champ. Really a movie director/writer/whatever his role is is just another feather in the cap of an amazing career from an amazing man.

We should all feel lucky to be alive to bare witness to the greatness that is Sir Lewis Hamilton!

What are the best racing sim rigs at differing price points? I host my friends to watch races every now and then and it would be a fun time to get blasted and try to race the track they’re on that week.

Logitech G29 is the starter thing, it's a wheel and pedals and you just clamp it to your desk, it's like $300CAD. But cmon man you're downplaying it we all know you want to be a huge nerd and get super into this and spend thousands.

I don't think it's worth getting into "price points" because there's a lot to a rig, you don't generally buy it all at once. Come visit in the PC Sim Racing thread.

My favorite part of this year’s DTS is when Horner says something like “I’m in the spotlight a lot, but my wife understands what that’s like” because they don’t explain what he means by that at all. I bet a lot of people were googling “Christian Horner Red Bull f1 wife”

DTS is a lovely show. Besides sometimes showing something actually interesting from behind the scenes, it’s dramatized to the point of being unwatchable. Made it 3 episodes into the current season and I just… can’t.

Check out motogp unlimited if you’re more into a chronological documentary style approach.

If he can beat Sir Lewis Hamilton in equal machinery, COVID wouldn't stand a chance against his monster antibodies tbh.

Seems like Red Bull have a cheating wing again, looks like they should be banned from the sport and have their last 30 race results voided.

i have a suspicion the mercedes "zero" sidepod design is related to their porpoising problems but they are too committed to it and won't change their development path. but who really knows :shrug:
