WTF1 is a shadow of itself, with a bunch of new hires presenting. The previous hosts jumped ship and started their own podcast called P1 With Matt & Tommy

which is better? tires that last the full race + refueling? or no refueling + you gotta change tires all the time?

my impression from older races is that full race tires + refueling makes better racing, plus more exciting pit lane screwups

If it's at a real course and not an oval, Indycar is interesting to watch in this respect. Those cars must have a fuel cell the size of my bladder, they're refueling like every 8 laps at Road America.

Also I think the car designs looks pretty cool

i enjoy watching indycar when they're not doing ovals. the street circuit at st pete was a shitshow

I think it’s kinda cool they mix road and ovals in Indy

it's neat they mix them, i just find oval racing to be mostly pretty boring to watch for more than a few minutes

Khablam posted:

Full fuel + tyre changing is the second best, but there's a large gap between that and the absolute best, which is tyres + refuelling.
Full race tyres was the nadir of all formulae.

interesting, i gotta find some tires + refueling races to watch

1994 to 2009 is the primary refuelling era. 2005 is the bad year™
Overall 94-99 is probably F1's best run of years.

Hungary 98 and France 2004 to understand why the Schumacher + Ross Braun dream team won for 5 years running.

ah yeah i've seen some from 2005, lol

yeah you can see he moves the jack up into contact with the car and then waits. the front jack gets really close but doesn't touch the car until after the time
