Yeah sorry for causing all the off topic discussion (even if the alternative would've been dead silence...) but to be called a Nazi is a bit uncalled-for. No need to apologise, it was a welcome change from the norm! exactly! I think it was banter also. cota is a good track. a few years of massive a...

Well, unlike the rest of you "unit of measure" Nazis, I'm looking forward to the race weekend in America. You know, the F1 car race... lol. should be better than miami and vegas. curiosity got the best of me, and for a giggle, found some three day, standing only tickets, for vegas. $1500. ( us doll...

heck, I'm American and don't know why we haven't switched to the metric system??

psi, I'm fine with that

maybe some of the old farts fine, could be funneled to Felipe, problem solved

Ahh let's race in a desert where nobody cares about the sport, theres incredibly dubious human rights record, the temperature causes drivers to have health issues, and the tyres can't do more than 18 laps

Great idea isn’t it?

Yep. Seems this is a case where Lawrence Stroll wanted an F1 driver for a son a lot more than Lance Stroll ever wanted to be an F1 driver. Interestingly, I wonder if Lance is actually a very good case study for how fast/far a person with no particular talent for motorsport can go, given every possi...

just saw a headline on Racer. a sprint race is where the championship is over ? lol

Lance Stroll has mentally checked out. The love for F1 has gone Alonso has crushed his spirit He's throwing his toys out of the pram He needs a few redeeming races before leaving F1 otherwise we will just remember him as the billionaire boy whose dad bought him an F1 team. injuries, getting destroy...

Vowles. You are just embarrassing yourself. Grow a spine and tell Toto to carry his own water on this

The teams consider the 200 mio. USD compensation a new team has to pay to enter Formula 1 way too small. It makes sense that if you split the cake into 11 parts each part is smaller than if you split it in 10 parts. And if the current teams loose app. 100 mio. USD pr. year (see note) by letting a n...

t2. i agree, look at LIV golf. players left for one reason. money.
fans don’t get to see the best players against each other. no sport holds my interest like it used to.

make the brakes smaller. or use a different material, that makes the breaking distance a little longer

pc27b

will Andretti-Cadillac make F1 "explode" in popularity in the USA? come on, no. will it draw more american eyes to the sport, of course. same as the netflix show that i have never watched. but many friends have, and ask me about F1 now that they watch the show, and some races. something they never ...

""The NRA has on outsized influence as most gun owners aren't members, and the lobbying they do is more on the behalf of gun makers than gun owners. Lots of people who own a single gun for home defense don't care about the NRA, and many other guns owners, myself included, disagree sharply with their...

i’m not positive, but trying to make sense of this. team managers can complain about a new team all they want. but can’t stop it so toto can suck an egg ;) drinking coffee this morning and going down a rabbit hole. more reading, and maybe the f1 teams can block new entrants. as others have said, th...

pc27b

that was a really enjoyable race!

pc27b

it isn't just you. it's across the board here. I think most of it is just an unrealistic expectation from Red Bull. that they have to hire another great driver to challenge max. they don't

pc27b

With qualifying 1.3 seconds behind Verstappen, Perez is going to make Marko's work quite easy of replacing him with someone else. Perez is kind of now become a midfielder in a Red Bull which is frustrating to someone like myself who's a Checo fan. He should probably retire at the end of this year f...

^ Yep, things changed over the weekend. After last years mess with Palou, who would have thought Chip would want him back lol.
A bit of revenge against Zac too

pc27b

alex palou, gannasi indy car, mclaren in 24, was rumored to be talking about a one year loan to williams for a ride in 24. with mclaren’s blessing
apparently that blew up this morning. maybe he is getting interest for a 24 ride from a bigger team? he’s tiddled off two teams, in two seasons though

pc27b

This is what happens when you openly let people breach a budget cap in the first season of it. What makes you think the overspend was what allowed Red Bull to produce a superior car? The most productive 400k in F1 history if true. do you really believe it was really 400k Yes. That's what it says in...

pc27b

either way, McLaren has two young, darn good drivers

pc27b

We seem to be missing the point. Is there anything remotely interesting about F1 as it stands. We have a driver who has under him a car that is so far ahead of the rest that he can drive it as he wishes, he has a teammate who is no competition at all. So can I ask what does anyone think is remotely...

Still need to see that from another view. Did zhou cause any of that?
Ricardo may have rear ended him
Zhou made an awful start and rear-ended Ricardo, pushing him into the Alpine

Ahh. Thanks. Got the cars mixed up

Do we actually believe that Perez has suddenly got that bad though. RB have in the past have deliberately crippled the #2 drivers car to make their #1 driver look superior, IMHO what has happened this time is they have over-cooked it a bit. Lets see over the remainder of the season. Red Bull delibr...

pc27b

after starting the season so well, I'm not sure what happened to Perez. he seems mentally beaten on track.
his current qualifying form has led to much deserved critique. but the guy kept force India going, and has had a nice little career in the sport

pc27b

kind of funny that RB waited until everyone was switching to their side pod. then moved the goal posts

pc27b

imagine that, something on social media was wrong?
who would of thunk it? lol

pc27b

i’m not sure when f1 was ever about being “fair” as far as driver hiring and firing goes

he got sacked. sucks for him, but that’s the sport he’s in

pc27b

mclaren....may be headed in the right direction, time will tell. Norris may stay

ferrari.... money is the only reason to go there

Leclerc....anyone else think he is toxic?

MEF24....good point on lewis and Nico being friends before getting on the same team

pc27b

I'm ehhhh on this. don't care one way or another, and will wait and see if he does any good.
front row speed lol. that is meaningless, the car could be illegal for a race, the tires could have made a huge difference, the statement could be totally false. it's a test

pc27b

I would think many of you guys should be happy Red Bull engines/motors may be behind. with all the complaining I read about Red Bull and max!:)

over 1000 track limit violations and we are supposed to believe these were all caught and tallied fairly? lol absurd I like that idea mikeyg during the Schumacher era we watched the Ferrari out front lap after lap after lap on tv. a quick switch to a pass in a corner, or quick replay of a pass in a ...

Hulkenberg has made Q3 more times than Perez in 2023. That is terrible. Perez has the speed, he needs to get his head back on straight though. Run his race, don’t worry so much about beating max anymore. He finishes top 3 or so all year, keeps his job. If he doesn’t turn it back around, maybe he’s ...

count me in, or i guess out. i won’t watch sprints either

ferrari fighting for wins? maybe with someone outside the team calling the race lol! someone has had a dominating period since the 70’s when i started following. lack of testing and budget cap doesn’t allow anyone to catch up. 2026 will bring a new team to the top, or maybe the same team. destroy th...

pc27b

an impossible thing to police(the cap).
everyone knew the teams would be getting around it someway. I still find the cost cap ridiculous.
