He's currently 16 points up on them.

Stroll 2017 points vs McLaren 2017 points should be in the offseason thread title, that's just amazing

My memory at the time is that it was the latter. There is little awareness in Spain that blackface is not the done thing

A couple years ago Marquez, who is the top rider for Honda's factory MotoGP team, went to the race at Motegi (which is in Japan, while working for Honda which is a Japanese company, and with Japanese people in his pit crew) with a special helmet with a cartoon of himself making a squinty eyed racist face on it. Not making this up.

Despite the lack of entries, the racing in LMP has been pretty good the last few years, at Le Mans anyway, I never really watch the other ones. Now that Jackie Chan is dominating LMP2 and the overall finishing places, I expect a new golden age of endurance racing. F1 can't compete with Jackie Chan.

The people with a vested interest in promoting WEC will tell you that everyone is pretty much driving flat out these days. How much truth there is to that I couldn't tell you.

The commentators (including drivers as guest commentators) have been saying that for a few years now. Yet F1 drivers spend 2 hours every sunday managing fuel and tires. The most fraudulent series?

Alonso is at Daytona this January. In case anyone missed that.

The ones I primarily were looking at were the 748s

As a bike mechanic this is my professional opinion on that

Is it common practice for Bike mechanics to take cams out and polish out pits with some grinder from home depot instead of taking it to a machine shop or just buying loving new cams?

Sounds like a lot of work either way. I ran this one for about 10k miles. It looked exactly the same when I put it in before. But this is superior German metallurgy.

So I'm not well versed in oval racing, is that a drawing of Dale Jr. with Dale Sr.'s fatal crash reflected in his sunglasses? If so, I don't see how this thread can really be the worst thread, NASCAR is just on another level.

Marky Mark is gonna have to crash out for Dovi to win it isn't he? Depressing.

Yeah but for Dovi to win win, Mark has to crash (or finish 16th+?) AND Dovi has to win the race

Isn't this an inter-war quote from one of the fascist regimes? Good post for a good thread.

Surtees is the only man to win it on bikes and cars. Alonso, Hamilton, Vettel, they don't even dream of such achievements.

Can you imagine how great F1 would have been with an actual person in it like Rossi? Instead of robots like Vettel Hamilton Rosberg Raikkonen Verstappen Hulkenberg Perez Massa...
