  1. Merc only giving their drivers one run on new hards was a completely brain dead move.
  2. Ferrari and Aston aren’t clearly faster. If McLaren keeps their form, then they will be, but they’ve only been clearly faster for one race so far and that track fit McLaren’s car extremely well. But even then, McLaren wouldn’t drop Norris or Piastri for Russell so it wouldn’t matter.
  3. Where do you think he would go? RB wouldn’t take Russell. Max hates Russell. Not to mention, if RB really was going to accept a second driver who could challenge Max, guys like Lando or Charles would probably be higher up on their list. Other than that, no car is clearly faster than Merc.
  4. And they had to use a crane, so Checo just gave away photos of RB’s brand new floor. He really is doing everything he can to lose that seat.
  5. Good luck getting the owners to agree to any roll back of the franchise tag. They'll fight that to the death.
  6. Not quite. The $200 million is the fee to pay F1 in the Concorde Agreement, which they want to raise to $600 million or more. Getting approved by the FIA doesn’t require paying $200 million.
  7. Andretti and Hitec are both legit entries with tons of experience in Motorsport and big money backing. It’s so stupid they aren’t being green lot immediately.
  8. “Hopefully he’ll call the game & have suggestions”
  9. Yeah, and I don’t give a fuck if EV is the future. It makes for shitty racing. Formula1 is a Motorsport first and foremost. And I agree that sustainabile fuels and other ICE tech could still make a massive impact.
  10. Considering that sustainable fuels are already capable of guaranteeing carbon neutral engines by themselves, is there still a need to have power units as complex as the current ones? “Personally I think not. Today we are in a transition phase, the big manufacturers need to develop hybrid and electric technologies as they are part of their sales portfolio, but I believe that, if we do a good job with sustainable fuels, we will be able to have simplified engines and with less impact on weight. It's something we'll start thinking about soon."
  11. There are rumors he turned RB down recently. That would be hard to believe though.
  12. He spelled irrelevant wrong. LMAO. Never change, Satya. I’m sure when we get rid of Brandon Harris you’ll be making this exact same leap in logic in our favor.
  13. He’s really not though. That’s only for absolute freak athletes. Collins doesn’t fit the bill. He lacks explosiveness.
  14. lol wut. He’s nowhere near a Day 2 pick right now. He had 1 sack and 3 TFLs in 12 games last year. He’d have to take a huge step forward to get to that range in next year’s draft.
  15. The Gulf Oil color combination is unrivaled. It will always look incredible.
  16. Wow. Did not realize @utee94 was Asian. You learn something new every day.
  17. We’ve got Tex Pete going full Football Board giving room temperature IQ takes on a game he didn’t even watch, he listened to it on the motherfucking radio! And we’ve got fully unleashed Satya off his Prozac with no word limit?! Oh hell yeah. Surly is in midseason form, baby! I really hope we don’t get a commitment any time soon to mess this up.
  18. I don’t think it’s much of an adjustment. It sounds like at either place you get subjected to weird, cult rituals and dry humping.
  19. And that’s why the Big 12 is absolutely fucked.
  20. I think they want a benchmark for Yuki. They want to see if he’s worth promoting to the second RB seat next year. If either Yuki or Danny Ric clearly beat the other, I’d say that driver has the inside lane for the second RB seat. That and De Vries has been absolute dog shit and never deserved the F1 seat in the first place. Scoring a point at Monza in that Williams really wasn’t that impressive and his junior career was extremely underwhelming. Easily the worst junior career of any F2 winner ever. I mean Latifi got second the year he won F2 and he didn’t beta Latifi by much.
  21. You’re clearly not a true Ferrari fan. If you were, you’d skip the post race too.
  22. Yeah. It honestly makes no sense. Checo’s pace in the race isn’t that far off of Verstappen, but he can’t get out of Q1 in the fastest car on the grid.
  23. This is a crazy stat :
  24. So McLaren are the second fastest car now? lmao Bummer he didn’t have a good last run in Q3. He should have the pace to score some good points tomorrow though.
