Grand Slam in F1 is specifically winning by leading a race from pole and getting fastest lap. Bottas didn't get it because Lewis led during pit stops

pik_d posted:A grand slam in rugby union was historically when one of five nations beat all the other (that would be four) nations. Now that Italy has joined the definition had to change to five, when it used to be four. Apparently Grand Slam in Bridge (where the term apparently originates) means winning all thirteen tricks. Thirteen.

Yes there's nothing wrong with the old one, it is in fact very good. The new one is not amazing but it's perfectly fine, it's totally acceptable, extremely ok, mediocre at worst.

I didn't say how well they'd contend for it, and they'd've been closer in the WCC this year with a non poo poo driver instead of Raikkonen In a way I'm glad they're idiots who keep paying him huge amounts to be poo poo, but I'd far rather he'd gently caress off

Can one of you give me an example of a situation where the logo would be used where there wouldn't be enough context to figure out it's obviously an F and a 1? Also using a straight line to represent a 1 isn't confusing anyway unless you are an actual idiot

Liberty are actually being really sensible and saying things like 'you can't expect everything to change overnight because we bought into a sport that has a lot of catching up to do, but we're putting in the investment to make that happen'. Remember Bernie literally had no marketing department for a multi billion dollar business. Having a coherent brand identity does actually matter when you're trying to sell something to sponsors and new fans, and some of the stuff they've done is actually quite clever if you ignore the marketingese and design document bollocks. Having a simple big block of a logo lets it sit beside all the different corporate sponsors' logos without distracting from them while still making everything seem up to date and unified. The old logo is cool but it's definitely getting on a bit in a sport that sells itself on being cutting edge. The new one is kinda boring but that's actually by design. They've deliberately gone for a primary typeface that looks distinctive and modern and works across devices. The secondary fonts will be mainly for posters and signage and the like and are good contemporary takes on retro styles, though I'm not personally a fan of the aesthetic of F1 Turbo. Yes I'm taking my new red text seriously

Having a lovely driver funding the team is only worthwhile if you have another driver who has the skills to turn that money into success on the track. This could all work out if Kubica still has those skills, but if he's just another post-accident shadow of his former self like Massa they've got to be really careful about their future plans
