They think Latifi will break all the new parts before they've had any running to test them. They are absolutely correct on that assessment. lmao forever at failson paydrivers getting shafted by the team because they're too bad to draw any meaningful conclusions from

Corin Tucker's Stalker posted:Does anyone here happen to use F1 TV Access on Roku? I'm thinking about signing up but want to make sure I won't see any spoiler thumbnails/descriptions when I go to watch something a few hours after it happens. They are pretty good with making the thumbnails non spoilers except if it’s rainy they usually show that. There are no descriptions beyond the session title.

I was casually reading every post and couldn't understand the thread closure when I got to it. It's making me worried that I'm becoming an old git who thinks young people these days are too sensitive. Back to motorsport... My colleague was at Goodwood and was raving about the fan-car by McMurtry. What's to stop F1 doing something a bit more innovative like that? Just inertia? Is there an open Motorsport event that allows any car at all?

I think the idea is that making all the cars faster just makes the sport more dangerous without improving the racing. And increases the costs which hurt the little guys more.

I think Group B kind of hosed us in regards to getting another crazy open class motorsport. The cars ended up basically incredibly powerful and rad as hell, but also made of paper. So there would have to be some pretty strict safety rules nowadays I would imagine.

don't really have much interest in a thread that gets locked for several hours because it's apparently crossing the line to (checks notes) criticize the daughter of a racist for liking racist poo poo on social media. seems like any sensible person with any awareness of the world we live in would consider the actual racism to be a bigger issue, but who am I to say, I'm just a person who lives in reality. later gatorsGOOD TIMES ON METH posted:McLaren is trash and Zak Brown should be fired agree to disagree

Williams is giving the new package to Albon because it is worse and they want Latifi to have one last race where he finishes above his teammate before jettisoning him into the sun.

I'm unsure why a team with McLaren's resources gets all this rope to underperform every season just from a couple fluke podium results. Take it easy

Recognizing that no one probably meant anything malicious by those jokes so no probes, but was just spiraling in a real weird direction. Anyway, lmao McLaren.

Just inertia? ilmucche posted:There was a fan car, I think a Brabham? The regs prevent it now Yep, there were a couple of fan cars including a Brabham in F1 that were pretty quickly banned. https://youtu.be/BOxlKfcSs5o And there aren’t really many super open racing series. There are only a couple that even have non-spec tires, Super GT in Japan being the highest profile of them. Why? It becomes a spending arms race, one company finds (or spends the most to bend the rules and find) the one solution, and all the other manufacturers quit because they don’t want to spend that much to get beat. This is why Formula 1 has so many balancing measures in place now, this is why sports car racing is shifting to “Balance of Performance” rules instead of open rules, and why series like IndyCar are practically spec series. Nobody wants to get into a financial arms race.

Don't imagine that was a thing then I've never compared any times but I wouldn't be surprised if modern cars are as fast as groub B were. But they're way safer, and I bet you could make them even faster if you took away weight by removing the modern safety stuff.

Going the other direction, if the criticism is "she fucks" then it makes it sound like people think it's a problem that she fucks. Imagine if there's some other non-racist woman who's hosed as many drivers as she has, do you want to insult her too? Always think of the non-racist sex havers. *Not going to look it up **Not going to look it up
