To say that about someone that out-qualified you on more than one occasion, when there wasn't a drat thing wrong with either car, is a window into just how entitled and abhorrent LH really is. His kinda spaced out persona in Australia, talking quietly like he is loving levitating above us all is also infuriating. gently caress LH, great opponent for Ferrari to put in his place. edit: Merc please give him everything he needs and more. Bill him as number 1. Design the tub around his rear end. Certainly make sure his engine holds together. Everything. I want LH to be clear that when he loses this WDC he can't blame the car again. I think if LH had to parse he might not be the best of all time he might just have a stroke and die Tony Montana fucked around with this message at 11:36 on Mar 29, 2017 |

Yes. It's not series racing, the teams build the cars. In Indycar there is a common chassis that everyone uses (or there was when I last watched) but in F1 the cars are built by the teams. Where this doesn't always happen is the engine, because building an F1 engine is a ridiculously complicated and expensive thing that a massive company like Honda can't get right. So there are only a few people that make engines, Ferrari, Merc and Renault power the grid. But because there is a lot of aerodynamic loading on F1 cars and that results in huge performance gains, the individual teams making their chassis and the wings and wing details still have a lot of influence over the performance of their car. The Renault and Red Bull both use the Renault engine, but Red Bull have the aerodynamic experience of an particular engineer called Adrian Newey, which means their chassis and resulting aerodynamic package and therefore car is nothing like the Renault. F1 is a longer burn than a race or a championship. It's about development and momentum and the most prestigious motor racing marques directly competing in both building cars and racing them. So what is happening (IMO) with RBR is they are at a disadvantage with that customer Renault engine. Renault will never sell their very best engine to you as a customer, their very best engine goes into their own car. So you've got a less than top engine, which means you've gotta try and catch up in other places. The problem with that is your competitors not only build their own engines (with dibs on that super-special config they keep just for themselves) but also arguably have comparable aero and chassis departments.. so you're coming to fight with only one glove done up. Danny and Max are both brilliant drivers but F1 is too serious for that to be enough. What a long post. I enjoy explaining F1 to noobies sometimes rather than just making jokes with the regulars

It's a pretty good rule of thumb. Why? Everyone long posts sometimes and I probably do it more than most. Just because I'm talking about stuff all the fans already know doesn't mean it's not worth posting for noobies. You'll pick up when I'm in lecture mode, I'll start saying super obvious stuff like who make engines. That post isn't intended for you or any of the regulars.

If its going from 'we can hire from anywhere in Europe and just fly them to the UK and put them up in a house and away we go' to 'everyone that isn't English has to go through working visa poo poo with lead times and restrictions and perhaps importing parts and moving vast piles of money around is a lot more complicated and harder' then the UK will cease to be as important as it currently is in F1.

Khablam posted:Nando ousts lewis to become everyone's driver of their heart Just keep in mind the majority of F1 fans that aren't English speaking don't read motorsport.com. Who honestly gives the slightest gently caress about this? As for Seb talking in Italian on the radio when he wins, we love that poo poo. We love it even more that there is a brit somewhere lovely that they can't understand it It's also good because BBC and Sky often won't broadcast Italian radio messages because the English audience can't understand them so we get away with saying poo poo edit: then someone properly European like Seb just switches between Italian and English and German fluently and .. the English complain because they can't understand anything but English. We don't even have to make up jokes edit2: alonso is another real euro. Ham is an Englishman. It's a pretty simple test, are they bilingual?

Everyone loves Alonso. Actually not everyone, my girl doesn't. She did, she thought he was cool and all and flowing hair blah blah, but then there is that doco on Spanish TV about when he left Ferrari. You should all watch it if you haven't, it's really candid and good. It's all in Spanish but there were English subtitles. Anyways she just got this kinda intense, desperate vibe off him. Which is, of course, probably exactly how he was feeling by the end of his time with Ferrari but yeah, she doesn't like him now. Not like Ham hate, but just there is something about his intensity that makes her feel uncomfortable. But she loves Danny and on the way out of Albert Park on the Saturday I made a joke about keeping the car on the road and she got really lovely and yelled at me. So I dunno wtf, I guess I'm turning her into a proper F1 fan which is to be emotional and irrational and fight cunts when they dis your guy The McLaren wasn't that bad in Seb's RBR glory days. Anyways ok good and glad we're friends but we're still going to beat you into the ground

At the karting world cup in Sarno, southern Italy, Verstappen Jnr, showed the lightning speed which has made him the youngest man ever to win a seat in Formula One, with Toro Rosso next season. He qualified fastest and comfortably won the pre-final by a few seconds. In the final itself, the red mist descended and Verstappen blew it. Having lost the lead from pole position, on lap two he attempted a kamikaze manoeuvre. The resulting collision broke his painstakingly assembled kart, sending Verstappen out of the race. In such circumstances, most fathers might offer their teary son a consolatory hug, shoulder pat, or even a few words of encouragement. Not Jos. “I was so upset with him,” Verstappen says over coffee. “I walked away out of the park, and went to the van and started packing the tent down. He was crying like a baby. He was really disappointed. He said: ‘Daddy, we have to go and pick up the chassis because it’s the last race of the day.’ I replied: ‘No, I’m not going. If you want your chassis, you have to go and get it yourself.’ “He looked at me and knew I was angry. He got somebody else to help him put it in the van. Then we left the circuit, and he tried to start speaking to me. I didn’t say a word to him. I said: ‘Don’t speak to me. I’m really fed up with it and disappointed with the way you were racing. Please, don’t speak.’ Some of the narrative around Max is that he is the spoilt brat with the easy ride but I would say the reality is Max is tougher than most people and 90% of the people I know in the world would just loving melt being the son of such a man. Being Jos's son is probably the same way boot camp is tough so it makes soldiers that don't suck. I have a even more respect for Max now, while other modern parents were asking how their son felt about their career Jos was forging ahead like a viking

Aren't you aussie, 1500? Are you a karter in Melbourne? Do you know about the West Gate Bridge track? I'd go with Ron because it more illustrates hard work and ethic as opposed to being talented and getting a luck break. Jos looks like a loving maniac in that picture, complete with the stubble of being up all night drinking hard liquor and beating the poo poo out of people with bad opinions. We could use him here, honestly edit: Canadian? gently caress i dunno

I'm going to poo poo my pants and take a picture and post it here I bought Damon's book because it was highly recommended and so far it's boring as poo poo. He's just going on about being the son of a legend and I don't really give a gently caress about that, I want war stories and cool things that happened during his career. But I guess it's Damon Hill so I got what I deserved. The Brawn book is apparently just a long interview with Brawn, some people like it and some don't.

djssniper posted:Hold on, it's a brand name, divisions are mute in this, it's still a Honda Nah, I've heard this a couple now. Honda America has nothing to do with Honda Japan. Just like HP was both HPE and HPT (HP Enterprise and HP Technology), they actually had nothing to do with each other. They've recently seperated, HPE is now just HPE and has it's own logo (which is dumb), but for the longest time anyone on the outside saw one 'HP' which was actually two totally separate companies doing totally different things. Go back to where I crap on about the ownership of Ferrari, which is a long and complicated musical chairs. Modern branding is a byzantine maze of theory and intuition and nobody really understand it other than the executive boards.

djssniper posted:So if Honda US had a fallout like VW with the emissions issue the brand wouldn't be tarnished? Do US cars have the 'Honda' badge? like I said, news to me It's like some hardware fault in HP server's range is a HP tech issue but does that effect the business of HPE? Well yeah it does, but not much. The enterprise agreement between HPE and their corporate customers would take that into account, but they're not going to re-sign to someone else because of something HPT did they don't like. They'll say to their HPE representative 'yeah well I don't know what HP is doing with those servers, but as long as you make sure none of those things end up on my network we have a good relationship and it's loving expensive to change stuff like that so we're good'. I can imagine it's much the same with Honda. Honda America would have stuff going on in America so big that the 'parent' Japanese company can poo poo the bed for quite a while and the American customers of Honda America still trust their local representatives. Another point would be Americans generally don't give a poo poo about F1, so Honda Japan's long and dirty farce of this engine is something not only they haven't heard, even if they did hear it they probably wouldn't care. We all will probably look twice the next time a Honda salesman tells you 'oh and the engine is solid in this baby' but for the majority of Americans I'm sure it's like Toyota.. reliable as gently caress and not made here therefore it doesn't suck.

Ooh there are some places online that have extracts. I think this is a suitably droning (I like that word) piece about daddyDamon Hill posted:There were several people who were my father. There was the actual person who lived in the house and who went places with us, and there was the legend in the newspapers, on TV and at racetracks. There was the very serious man who did a very dangerous job, and there was the clown who made everything a big joke. I think I have a good handle on who Graham Hill was now, but when I was growing up, he was a demigod: a slightly intimidating but, at the same time, a lovely, generous, gregarious man who made our lives shine with light. more at: http://extracts.panmacmillan.com/extract?isbn=9781509831920 jesus christ shoot me. i paid for this Tony Montana fucked around with this message at 09:32 on Apr 6, 2017 |
