ngl my favourite part of this thread is all the avatars and flairs

I still don't know when and why I got this flair but it's okay because Stroll owns, he's a supreme binman that is fast like 2x a year.

Just saw the actual new intro and am disappointed they didn�t replace Brian Tyler�s garbage score.

Uhm Mods? Every other post here has merit but this is clearly a sign of something wrong.

At Bahrain? Do we need two races in the weekend that the grid finishes in the order they started in?

Qualify at the outer loop, use same setup/Parc Ferme for the main track on raceday.
Do you gloryrun qualy, do you compimise the race? Where do you stack up compared to the rest of the teams? It's the first race of the season assholes good luck!

Yeah that didn't live up to the hype but it's still an AM P5, A Haas in Q3 and The entire field pretty close in Q1 and Q2. Solid start.

That Strolls Shills tag is a beauty

Still not sure how I got it, but I stand by that Are Lance is pretty decent so I'm happy with it.

Also pretty good race now that I got home and actually got to watch the parts I missed. Oh Ferrari, What the hell McLaren.

Once they ditch that ugly rear end pink BWT livery it will look a lot nicer. Any car that wears that poo poo looks like a bottle of pepto bismol.

The Pink Racing points looked pretty sleek, the Alpine ones aren't great.

What happened to McLaren? Are they just a poo poo team now?

They managed to be poo poo the last years with a bad engine, an okay engine and now a good engine so signs point to yes.

My favorite non-embarassing Stroll Moment™ was when they had to tell him that he kept hitting the radio button instead of the hybrid power boost when exiting corners. Are Lance was just too absorbed in other things to notice.

The Radio button is the Hybrid button Braaaaaaad.

I guess you can't be an F1 driver and not be a little bit of a dick.

For all the jokes and poo poo we make this is pretty accurate really.

These people are all insane; driving high speed coffins around tracks as fast as possible and trying to get away with as much as they can to gently caress eachother over (on track, most are nice off track).

Frond posted:

The last time most race cars were actual �coffins� was the 1980s - and the spate of horrific accidents during that decade across all disciplines made the rulemakers really ramp up safety. Especially in F1.

While they are pretty safe now I still think it's lowkey funny how giant the cars are and how they are strapped into a really tiny box compared to that.

Is there a good documentary on youtube/netflix/F1TV/whatever about the 2016 battle with Lewis and Nico that anyone would recommend? My wife has gotten interested in F1 recently and I think she'd like to watch something about that based on other things she's enjoyed a lot.

I head the this one is pretty good and the parts I've skimmed seem solid:
"The Silver War" it's a re-upload cause the original tends to get nuked.

do these people have nothing better to do?

Its 2 weeks between races and they need to generate clicks so no.

If Albon gets a flat tyre during FP1 we will probably see a headline about how Latifi is coming back or something.

It�s Marlboro (Philip Morris) but they can�t advertise tobacco.

Yup, it's their Business 2 Business "initiative" so they can still invite guests to races and discuss how to bribe politicians or something.

Although the bit about "no exceptions" is going to run them straight into disability legislation should F1 ever visit a 1st world country.

Also good luck upholding that at/around Zandvoort's track.

Does RB actually assist Alpha in any meaningful way?

They give them money to stay afloat, They don't even meet the budget cap IIRC.
AT could have taken more RB parts this year if they wanted, they just chose not to for reasons.
