Sven commented on the post, Rate the race: 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix 6 months, 2 weeks ago
Optimum scenario would have been a celeb, fully unaware of what they are doing, waving the flag one lap early. This way Masi’s flip-flopping some-lapped-cars-may-overtake decision would have still been part of the […]

This isn’t even only about the gamers who want to play the games, EA is world famous for being bad. Being associated with them will likely result in an image problem.

The combination of a lot of drivers not (or just marginally) backing off under yellows and q2 starting while there was still a tractor in a runoff-area carrying a car away was not a good look.

Hmmm… in political decisionmaking, a look at history often seems a worthwile endeavour to gather information on what might be a good or bad decision. F1 has obviously held races (ot tried to) in authoritarian […]
Sven commented on the post, Sainz convinced Monza win was "basically impossible" for McLaren 1 year, 9 months ago
@cotd This franchise model is part of the reason US-“sports” don’t feel like real sports-leagues to europeans. It has a full disconnect to the grassroots rather than a continuous system that is at least […]

Sven commented on the post, Ferrari should heed this lesson from its greatest era: Diversity delivers 1 year, 11 months ago
@gpwaon20 I’d wager the opposite is true. An indication might be the market-research driven decisions by big motorsporting organizations lately. The majority, the money and the future is with target groups who […]
Sven commented on the post, Should Leclerc have been penalised for Vettel collision? 1 year, 11 months ago
I think part of the reason for why and how collisions between teammates are judged differently from other collisions is a difference in perception of intentional risktaking versus honest mistakes. Drivers from […]
Sven commented on the post, "Assetto Corsa Competizione" – PS4 and Xbox One review 1 year, 12 months ago
You can always have a better PC for the prize of a console, or an equally performing PC for cheaper. Then you do not have to deal with subscription services, a single shop, the very limited scope […]
Sven commented on the post, "Assetto Corsa Competizione" – PS4 and Xbox One review 1 year, 12 months ago
@pastaman I don’t think they should release a console-version at all, as that can lead to people falsely viewing consoles as a viable platform, and it drains resources from further developing the game itself.
Sven commented on the post, FIA-Ferrari programme "a very good step" towards promoting women in motorsport 2 years ago
Maybe worth mentioning the W-series -esports league managed to get the complete line-up in and is using iRacing. Also, Beitske Visser is streaming quite regularly lately.
Sven commented on the post, F1 considered reviving 'dropped scores' points system in case drivers miss races 2 years ago
Reintroducing the rule would encourage teams to park their cars in certain circumstances, Brawn believes.
“They would say, ‘we’re not going to score points this race, we might as well drop out and save the e […]

I don’t really get the point in the cotd.
True, the point of my comment has indeed been missed. I do not know how your comment connects to my cotd, as you are writing about a different driver a […]

It should be noted that Da Costa and Catsburg are drivers who have streamed long before this special year has started. Catsburg has also driven iRacing endurance events with Verstappen and Norris in recent years, […]
Sven commented on the post, The obvious obstacle to creating an F1 simulator game 2 years, 1 month ago
Aren’t all relevant forces transmitted through the tyres? A sim would need to simulate how a car handles and drives, not how it achieves driving like that, so individual tyre loads, slip and slip-angles etc. […]
