aluminium has a meltingpoint of 660 °C, so for ONES this faggot is correct. grilling how ever would turn it into a mess. "These moderate cooking temperatures are in the range of 200-300°F (93-149°C)—a far cry from the high temps of grilling!"
I'd love for Bottas to win but I genuinely don't think he's as good as Lewis. As much as a carbabby Lewis has been through his career, he's still a really good driver and Valtteri is rarely ever as fast as him. If he doesn't cooperate with being #2 he'll win a few races sure. But not the championship.
Easton Roberts
Little blogposting here.
I remember watching F1 races on tv every other Sunday in the early 90s. I was just a wee tot so it looked really cool to me. Fast cars going zoom zoom, people shouting at the checkered flag in the end.
Fast-forward two decades, never really thought much of the sport. Then last week I watched Senna, and today I find this thread.
I tried watching some races from 2018 on youtube, and I just don't get it. How do I get into F1 as a sport, as an adult? I have no idea what's going on, the nuances, the spectacle, the sport itself. In my head it's still colorful cars going fast.
Help me out here I really want to relive that 90s carefree feel of watching cars go fast, but still understand what the fuck is going on at the same time...
I'll believe it when Bettas crashes into his master Lewis.
Bossberg wasn't afraid of crashing the nig.

Vallteri Bottas waited. The lights in front of him blinked and sparked out of the air. There were team orders in the race. He didn't see them, but had expected them now for years. His warnings to GIimi Räikkönen were not listenend to and now it was too late. Far too late for now, anyway. Vallteri was a racing driver for thirty years. When he was young he watched the formulas and he said to dad "I want to be on the cars daddy." Dad said "No! You will BE TEAM ORDERED BY STRATEGISTS" There was a time when he believed him. Then as he got oldered he stopped. But now in the cockpit of formula car of the AMG he knew there were team orders. "This is Tony" the radio crackered. "You must fight the team orders!" So Valtteri gotted his steering wheel and blew up the pole lap. "HE GOING TO WIN US" said the strategists "I will order at him" said the Toto and he fired the team orders. Valtteri leaded the grand prix at him and tried to win GP up. But then the Hamilton came and they were trapped and not able to win. "No! I must ignore the teamorders" he shouted The radio said "No, Valtteri. You are the teamorders" And then Valtteri was fired.

It's a pretty big amount of movement by F1 standards.
Essentially when the car gets up to speed, enough air gets under the wings to push it back onto its rear suspension, which reduces drag and makes the car faster in a straight line.
I find this one amazing just because he did it while being fucked up on every drug there is. youtu.be/Fa30bdEXNeM?t=78
Asher Cox
I did hear the moaning, wouldn't know the source though.
Joshua Gomez
you dont have to be a cunt about it to the guy, faggot and youve just vaguely described squat. every car squats under acceleration, thats physics. are you saying ferrari has changed the aero to provide more downforce over the rear wheels? is there something illegal about that? or do you even know what youre talking about?
More dive under braking than squat isn't it. When F1 cars accelerate they stay fairly close to their position at rest. However when they get up to higher speed the car slumps back more as down force works the car which isn't really squat. When the Ferrari brakes it dives giving the wings more angle of attack and more downforce in the slow speed of the corner.
Also squat is terrible for an F1 car because under heavy acceleration you want your down force but if the car squats you lose that downforce
Sebastian Brown
Ah, that section also sounded like forty six & two so I thought it was that or the other.
Liam Perez
Listen Seppo, it's pretty simple. They have a super flexible rear-end by modern standards. The car pitches back under acceleration, that's physics, however considering how stiff that suspension setup is, plus how it's designed to minimise body movement, that's a lot of difference compared to the other cars. The fact they've got it so stable as well despite the dramatic weight shift is genius.
That rear wing in straights is effectively smaller because of the amount of angle change under acceleration, it's much larger under braking, similar story to the front; the front wing is at an angle where it's cutting through the air much more cleanly.
Ferrari have had a great mechanical grip chassis for the last couple of seasons. New regs plus this aero trickery will greatly enhance their ability to get through traffic over Mercedes. They're going to be great chasers and the lesser turbulence from the wings due to the body movement will mean they'll provide less slipstream.
At low speeds it's not an issue, you're going too slow to make much downforce and the acceleration bonus you'll get from more weight being pushed onto the rear tyres will easily bridge the gap until you've got enough speed to make decent downforce.
Justin Walker
Yeah but about 2s they need the aero to provide more grip via downforce, so if your F1 car squats reducing downforce around that time frame you are losing acceleration
Actually no these cars are so heavy and have engine mapping that it's probably fine lamo
Luis Collins
Basically it reduces drag on the straights by reducing the frontal area and lowering the wing angle, allowing higher top speeds. The reverse is in corners and braking.
Caleb Hughes
>all these australia and australia jr. posts ugh
Colton Carter
That reminds me, I was organizing tracks in Assetto Corsa by region, and I saw that I have a kiwi track, but I just put it under Australia anyways, because New Zealand is irrelevant.
Eli Hughes
based fellow american joining up with me to shit on a non existent country
David Rivera
so the front suspension is still stiff to keep front downforce at all times, but the rear is soft to increase attack angle under braking and cornering? and the soft rear allows them to take advantage of squat for low speed acceleration when downforce isnt playing a huge role, and also to reduce downforce for straight line speed?
Oliver James
What track
Liam Hill
Yeah you can set your suspension up that it won't resist as much against heavy protracted force but still respond well against faster forces on individual wheels, so there's no loss in cornering performance. Modern F1 cars are also just naturally quite soft, especially compared to cars from the 90s

That's not even true though. RB has the most aggressive rake. Ferrari's is aggressive, too, plus the obvious changes on the straights vs under breaking.

Elijah Perry
Most of the drivers are PR robots, yes, but not all of them. Battling for position does not result in a ban. Only switching lines during braking because it's dangerous as fuck. Stagnation is not an issue at all. No feeder series in bullshit, with New licence regs the feeder series are more important than ever.
That being said, F1 has plenty of issues to fight at the moment. Just not the ones you listed.

Midfield is always close though. >slower cars This year will only be a tad slower than last year, which were the fastest regulated racing cars of all time. >no feeder series for F1 (this seems to have been rectified in 2017 with F2?) Multiple series lead to F1 opportunities, F2 being the main one buy anything with superlicence points is a start. >no good ways to (legally) watch This could be better, Foxtel is the easiest way but there are some online options too.
