HJB posted:In snooker, the crowd can get earpieces so they can listen to the TV commentary while they watch. I'm sure F1 can come up with a similar thing. Google Glasses to view timing screens perhaps? Members of the crowd used to be able to rent a miniature TV with headphones showing the FIA feed, onboards, commentary and live data, but the company who did it didn't want to pay Bernie enough to keep doing it.

Not as funny as when they tried to steal the Concorde designs but British/French intelligence caught on and made sure they got faulty plans.

It's just so utterly unimportant that I can't comprehend the mindset where you have an online slapfight about it. I personally agree with the guy who thinks there should be a flag, but if I was in his shoes I'd just roll my eyes at the first revert and go do something actually interesting.

Butt Wizard posted:Van Doorne? He largely dominated the later half of the GP2 season, more convincingly than Hamilton's year tbh. He just drove into the distance, even made Palmer look average. The dude is just on another level and could give Alonso a decent run for his money as a rookie. Didn't they change it so you can't go back into GP2 if you've had a full F1 drive?
