    So I know nothing about F1, I’m fully a Netflix fan. But it seems to me that it kinda sucks that many races are mostly about pitting strategy vs actual racing / passing. Also, there’s something about the F1 cars not looking like “real” cars that makes it kind of overly clinical. 

    It's an engineering contest.

    F1 is a competition of which team builds the fastest cars, which determines the order. Driver variability adds +/- 2 places. Strategy adds +/- 2. Then luck does the rest. 

    So in a typical race where everything falls near the middle of the +/- distribution and there's no random shit you would see results like:

    Team A, A, B, C, C, B, D, D, E, F

    The championship will be won by one of 3 teams. OSU, UGA, or Bama. 

    80% of champions come from top 3. 

    #4 has such a marginal probability of winning it all  

    expanding the playoff eliminates the controversy over which team deserves to have that final chance. 

    practically speaking, the 6 and beyond are a moonshot  if youre fighting to be #12 youve already lost.

    either colt or VY was the last qb we’ve had who could do this. we’ve been waiting 15+ years for this. thank god we didn’t listen to surly and send arch to the portal after week five of his first year as a starter. limitless future.

    Jerrod Heard did it for, like, 1 game
