Alianora La Canta commented on the post, Motorsport and simracing "two completely different worlds" – Dixon 2 years, 10 months ago
@formulales In fairness, eSports was not what Sage Karam or the others signed up for. It does not particularly resemble what they signed up for. Some will enjoy it and some not. Some will find it relatively easy […]

@formulales It’d be all too easy just to do that and expect miracles to happen. October is decent temperature-wise and not even the rainiest month of the year. The wettest months of the year (at least in Suzuka, […]

He was actually set to lose one of the WEC races IIRC. They were outqualified and sister car had a tech problem.

An hour quali and just under 2 hours racing. About 60 hours of actual sports content. I appreciate there’s practice and build up, but that isn’t the material that matters to me.
Keith Collantine commented on the post, F1 teams spent $1 million adding Halo to their cars 4 years, 11 months ago
@formulales @robbie I’m transcribing some quotes from Sainz at the moment about his run with the Halo today, in one of which he concludes “visibility was not an issue”.
Michael commented on the post, F1 teams spent $1 million adding Halo to their cars 4 years, 11 months ago
I second those thoughts and I’ve expressed the same concerns in my posts. I think it’s obvious from the pains that the teams faced to add the halo to their cars that the FIA has failed to take some […]

F1 in Figures commented on the post, F1 is held back by its tyre rules – Johansson 5 years, 1 month ago
@formulales The current rim size is fine with me too. In the current ‘tires that are designed to degrade rapidly’ era it’s impossible to have multiple competing tire manufacturers, because they will produce very […]
Sonics commented on the post, Hartley to get fourth grid penalty at fourth grand prix 5 years, 2 months ago
@formulales F1 is team sport, I don’t know why many people agree with this but always treat it as driver sport. Hartley penalty is not because the stewards hates him, but because the team (I put the engine […]

If Vettel got dizzy after one lap, clearly the shield is not ready for further testing just yet @formulales; and the FIA did test safety issues before the things got into a practice session.

@formulales But it’s already happening. Drivers get booed on the podium and all over the Internet. Motorsport is generally right down there on par with football and the age where F1 was a gentleman’s sport in high […]
BasCB commented on the post, Alonso suggests covering wheels for safer wet races 6 years, 1 month ago
I don’t think the solution should be coming from covering the wheels @formulales, but yes, I think he has a good point that apart from their grip levels, the sport, and their tyre supplier especially should look […]

Agreed, ROS could have tried but then again, I can understand why he didn’t. He just needed to get the result he needed. In my mind fair play to them both for doing what they were doing. The Merc […]

@formulales While I’m not a great fan of the mandatory pit stop and minimum fuel regs either, you’ve failed to note the reason why both were introduced. It was not because the Holden and Ford V8’s were the least […]

@formulales Alas, this is how PR and the media-machine works. If Horner came out and said what he really means, people would associate his words with the Red Bull brand and he’d be sacked in days…

@formulales, well it is called the silly (crazy) season, and we expect the usual stunts and red-herrings but it is usual for new signings to be announced immediatley they have notified their current team, unless […]
