  1. Leclerc lost 7 seconds in the pit and another couple seconds being stuck behind a slower Sainz for the second stint. He could be challenging Piastri for fifth right now if Ferrari could just quit fucking up. I know they won’t, obviously, but still.
  2. Leclerc is 5.7 second behind Lewis after losing 7 seconds on his pit stop. Just wonderful.
  3. Fucking hell, Ferrari. A 9.4 pit stop on a track that’s extremely difficult to pass.
  4. There was no point in making them switch. This track is extremely hard to pass. Cars could pass last year, but it’s much harder to follow this year, and it’s back to more of Monaco without walls like it used to be. Sainz was not going to get past Lewis, so they would’ve had to just swap back again causing them to lose more time.
  5. Man, Alpine’s been so pitiful the last couple races I almost feel bad for them. Almost
  6. George is such a whiny bitch lulz
  7. So McLaren is apparently the second fastest car and might be able to challenge RB at some tracks. That’s a massive jump from 7th fastest car like they were the first 10 races. These ground effect cars seem to be so finicky. If you get everything right, you can jump basically the whole field.
  8. Merc only giving their drivers one run on new hards was a completely brain dead move.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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.
  12. Good luck getting the owners to agree to any roll back of the franchise tag. They'll fight that to the death.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. “Hopefully he’ll call the game & have suggestions”
  16. 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.
  17. 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."
  18. There are rumors he turned RB down recently. That would be hard to believe though.
  19. 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.
  20. He’s really not though. That’s only for absolute freak athletes. Collins doesn’t fit the bill. He lacks explosiveness.
  21. 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.
  22. The Gulf Oil color combination is unrivaled. It will always look incredible.
  23. Wow. Did not realize @utee94 was Asian. You learn something new every day.
  24. 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.
