You could also put it like this: Alonso had to fight other top teams and drivers on the same tyre, whereas Schumacher did not have to.

Renault was the fastest Michelin car all season.

myattitude

There was also the tyre war issue of other Michelin teams at Michelin favoured tracks that meant Schumacher was losing or fighting for points with other M cars like McLarens, BMWs and Hondas to finish best of the rest. Whereas at "Bridgestone tracks", the Renault was always faster than the next non...

One big factor that never gets mentioned about gauging Schumacher's 2006 performance was the backstage politics at Ferrari that Schumacher was ultimately the losing party of. It was just as much a factor as 2007 was for Alonso or 2020 was for Vettel. If it did affect his performance or mistakes then...

myattitude

2) Schumacher actually had to fight to make up a deficit on Alonso. The momentum shifted from Renault to Ferrari after the 9th round in Canada and at that point. Schumacher was 25 points back ( about 62 in modern money. He managed to halve that gap even with horrendous luck at the end of the season...

myattitude

I've observed Schumacher's 2006 closely and I don't think the OP description is quite the same as mine, this is my interpretation of 2006: https://forums.autosport.com/topic/209942-alonso-trophies-i-dont-deserve/page-12#entry8405501 I do agree however that both Schumacher and Lewis were "Montreal Sc...

Wow. I agree, they hand out Knighthoods to any non-g...

myattitude

Hamilton leaving the inside open at Imola and Spain was just poor racecraft. Nothing else to add. You see this all the time with Hamilton, a failure to properly cover the inside line. You can even go back to Malaysia 2017, one of the very first ever duels between Max and Lewis. You're yet to attemp...

And what I've noticed is that the death rate from the flu is higher than from covid. Well that's not true. The death rate for COVID is magnitudes higher. Interesting fact: Australia hasn't had any flu deaths in over a year. That shows the restrictions have worked and that COVID is significantly mor...

myattitude

What is apparent by now is that Max is a hot head - He's been around for a long time now and this is no longer something he might grow out of, this is a character trait. What annoyed me most is he was trying to drive off of Lewis's car while Lewis was still in his and I could see Max's wheel turning...

myattitude

He strikes me as the GT sort. Maybe a Finnish version of V8 Supercars or Finnish version of BTCC. He just seems someone who would enjoy the informality and more racing.

myattitude

TBH I don't really want to talk about this anymore, I live in the sticks and the damn thing didn't affect me anyway, it has been one giant mental exercise like Brexit, didn't even vote in the damned thing yet I procrastinated no end with the tribes about it on the internet. I have a procrastination ...

Do the lives of over 60's not matter?

The point is it was disproportionate even by Covid standards. There were other variables going on, aforementioned.

myattitude

Stockholm is one of the more suspect examples of the affects of lockdown, because the surge in deaths occurred once tighter restrictions were brought in in the second wave. https://ourworldindata.org/explorers/coronavirus-data-explorer?zoomToSelection=true&minPopulationFilter=1000000&facet=none&pick...

https://www.ft.com/content/c64b7e37-f00b-4e74-acf8-49c039c57698 Sweden ended up bringing in restrictions to bring it inline with the other Nordic countries after having much worse rates than them. I'm sure you can appreciate Sweden having a population density of 25 people per KM square would make a...

myattitude

Being agnostic is only valid if there is insufficient evidence to form an opinion either way, which is obviously not the case here. Not even close Brazil and India both failed to lock down, both had horrendous Covid fatality rates. Many of them completely slipped through official records, no doubt....

Is it possible for you to show us these other pages where you have been arguing against COVID deniers? I think we'd all appreciate seeing you arguing the other side, since you claim you have been. I'm having them all day everyday, even as we speak, to the point of procrastination: Edit: Now he has ...

myattitude

You've been given refutations. We're still waiting for the weekend when you will address those. If you have charts to demonstrate that lockdown caused excess deaths that are higher in number than what COVID-19 would have, by all means share them. Nobody is denying that mental health has been affect...

I never said it was a conspiracy. I said you messed up the quotes. I'm sure it wasn't intentional, but it doesn't change the fact it made it impossible to easily quote you or see who said what. And yes, Alien posted the same chart again. Because without the pandemic, those people wouldn't have died...

myattitude

All the information was on the chart. It's UK only, which was clearly labelled on the chart, and the source was our world in data, which is one of the main sources for collating worldwide covid data, with graphs on pretty much every detail and the ability to plot the data in many different ways: ht...

myattitude

Fair enough, I missed the weekend thing. But it's a little rich to then keep using that article without having addressed those points first. Time constraints. You made a long rebuttal and a reply requires a long answer from me. But that isn't asking me nicely is it? People here have gotten heated. ...

myattitude

Is that UK or worldwide? Can you provide the direct link + article for context? I'm still waiting for direct link + article for this.

I made one observation and you said it was wrong. What else could you have been referring to? You're just lying to cover yourself now. and you still haven't addressed the long rebuttal.

Interesting figures, but scientific data suggests lockdowns themselves have increased the excess deaths: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7952324/ Which is correct and why?

myattitude

You have been arguing throughout that your research is sufficient to not agree with the experts. That implies a parallel level of expertise. Otherwise you are simply playing to your own ego. A parallel level yes, that's not the same as starting from an equal point. And I say yet again, Covid isn't ...

myattitude

Apart from the fact you've broken those quotes, making the post far harder to read and attributing someone else's post to me, you'll notice you still haven't actually addressed my points. You instead focused on the question you asked someone else. You said earlier that you would address the rebutta...

Suggesting that because COVID19 is a new version of a virus that is very different from others means you are starting from an equal point as scientists who have studied viruses their entire life is exactly the same as suggesting that because there are totally new technical regulations in F1 next ye...

myattitude

I've read the paper you posted. I'll hold off further comments on that until you have addressed what I've already said, but I can't see how you can defend it to the point of refuting the stance of myself and others.

Then why deny that COVID-19 is part of an older viral family, if everyone knows it is? Again. Deal with my rebuttal. Stop throwing insults and assumptions around, and actually debate the issues rather than belittling everyone who doesn't believe casual, unguided research is equal to a professional ...

myattitude

How about you actually reply to the rebuttal rather than contradicting basic science. https://www.webmd.com/lung/coronavirus-strains#1 Just in case you genuinely believe that COVID-19 is an entirely new virus with no prior scientific knowledge. You haven't shown me anything a Sun reader didn't alre...

I've never before come across any other scenario where so many people believe they know better than the experts in their fields and it does irritate me.
