@balue There’s a much larger market for games than sims.

Indeed I myself really enjoy racing games, and the more realistic the better… to a point. I simply don’t have the time required to dedicate to maste […]

@maxv That article is in relation to using biomass as a fuel source to produce electricity (by burning it).

Before making judgement, I think we need to understand exactly how biomass is used in the production […]

@proesterchen Indeed it’s no secret that the costs of synthetic fuels is high, Paddy Lowe specifically called this out in his Beyond The Grid interview. But to call it a conspiracy? That seriously erodes any c […]

@maxv do you have an actual source in relation to that plant, or are you making that up based on misaligned assumptions?

Hmmm

@glynh non-food biomass. Also there’s lots of bio-waste which can be used. And capturing the carbon from the atmosphere cleans the skies too.

@proesterchen synthetic fuels will always be vastly more inefficient than using electricity directly.

But replacing 1.5 billion cars is going to require a monumental amount of resources… and time. Not to m […]

Maybe, and just bear with me here, the session should be held on Saturday?

Even better, scrap the format. I was originally excited for it, thought more action would be great. But, I hate it.

Maybe after he offered the visit, the stewards turned around and so “no freaking way”, so Masi had to change his tune at their request?

Any number of potential reasons.

“ If that is a distraction for any other team, that’s good.”

Could be read into… but also could in itself be a distraction.

Either way, drawing expertise focus away from innovation and onto attempt […]

@esploratore1 Hunt didn’t want to race in the rain and had already made an agreement prior the start to pull out when Laura did—but Hunt’s team put their foot foot down and threatened him, so Hunt saw that he no […]

“If we were in the army and we were told we have to go to Afghanistan, we might have said, ‘bloody hell, that doesn’t sound safe, but we have to go, we don’t have a choice’,” he added.

Uhh but Bernie, the […]

Just doing the basic maths, for €1,000 to be made at €20/car, assuming a relatively tight 6 minutes per car: (€1000/€20) * 6 min = 300 minutes = 5 hours (also assuming no breaks). So to crack into the thousan […]

…enterprising farmer charges €20 per car…

This is relatively fair given cost of fuel, wear and tear etc. I mean, he didn’t have to trod out into the rain and help out (even if for a fee).

I think he means that if it’s forecast to be terrible weather, to bring the start time earlier and allow a much larger window for the race to happen.

Of course, this is terrible for the TV stations—but I kno […]

@undercut677 indeed most drivers stated it was the right call as they returned to the pits.

@dry-crust except there’s no “reward” for the award at all. Drivers aren’t going to change the way they drive in an attempt to boost their overtake count. There’s absolutely zero championship value in it (and righ […]

@bascb spot on.

I’m going to ignore it anyway, so no problem at all. But if it brings in more cash to keep the sport healthy—go for it I say!

@nimba hard to enjoy when it’s hardly satire and less than funny. It was good that you provided the warning… but if you already feel that a comment necessitates a warning, then you’re probably already aware it’s […]

By one of the greatest drivers of F1 history. You can’t look at raw statistics in the same way. Pit Bottas against most (not all) the other drivers and he would have the upper hand I’m sure.

@tommy-c as an Aussie and a HUGE Ricciardo fan, it’s very, very difficult to watch. Heartbreaking even.

I reckon he needs to get on a track and push the car way beyond its limits, so he can find it. I think h […]
