i like to look at old f1 memorabilia on ebay. i noticed a shitton of it ships from Japan. were they superfans at some point or somethin?

From the late ‘80s, after the Japanese GP started at Suzuka and Honda was winning first with Williams then with McLaren. I’m pretty sure one of the major broadcasters picked it up, and since the European GPS start at 10 or 11 pm it became perfect Sunday night fare for salarymen.

Domestic championships had huge money too, both from auto industry and tobacco. This was the bubble, after all.

The fact that there's even rumours of De Vries being ditched by race five when AlphaTauri are completely poo poo so him being bad isn't really costing them anything is very funny. The guy has aimed at F1 for most of his life and because he joined a ruthless fizzy drinks outfit instead of somewhere good he's not even going to get half a season.

if he wasn't such a smarmy smug oval office he'd maybe end up with 6 f1 races

F1 replaying 2008 Monaco.

Maybe if they go back to smaller cars in the future you could have better Monaco races. Or better yet just ditch Monaco in the future.

drat, that race is bonkers, one of the most bonkers wet races and I'm a fan of the Brazil wet races. Monaco is a silly place.

1 and a bit seasons. 25 races all up. I thought it was 2 full seasons, but he came in at the USGP in 2017.

quote:

Hartley made his Formula One début for Toro Rosso at the 2017 United States Grand Prix, replacing Pierre Gasly, who was absent to take part in the final round of the Japanese Super Formula Championship; he raced with the number 39. He qualified in 17th position after being eliminated during Qualifying 1, but started from 19th position due to engine penalties. He finished the race in 13th position, one lap down on race winner Lewis Hamilton. It was confirmed on 26 October that Hartley would remain a Toro Rosso driver for the remainder of the season, replacing Daniil Kvyat, and he chose 28 (the same number previously used by Will Stevens in 2015) as his permanent race number.

On 16 November 2017 Hartley was confirmed by Toro Rosso as a full-time driver alongside Pierre Gasly for the 2018 season. Hartley scored points at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix with tenth, German Grand Prix with tenth again and the United States Grand Prix with his highest finish in ninth. He finished the season in nineteenth place, four places and 25 points behind his teammate, albeit with two more non-finishes.

On 26 November 2018 it was confirmed that Hartley would not continue with Toro Rosso for 2019. He was replaced by Thai driver Alexander Albon.

Also, I just discovered his wife's name is Sarah.... so SHartley...... :xd:

One of the tracks in Screamer always crashes if you play it in the high resolution mode, I didn’t have an internet connection when the game came out so I have no idea if it was ever patched
