Hello fellas, how do i pick a team for the upcoming season? Havent watched since i was a little kid during the Schumacher days

just watch races and decide who you like the most?

Also, I think another issue is they still have a lot of motorsport friends, and they don't want to be ostracised from the insider "motorsport community" by talking shit about them all publicly, so they tend to be incredibly vapid.

Villeneuve is the exception who proves the point, and he's literally banned from Williams hospitality because he criticised them too harshly.

the gray one

Could you imagine being so butthurt over the truth?
They went from getting Damon Hill and Jacques FUCKING Villeneuve (who are second drivers at best) to WC status, to turning up late in a car that drives like its got a lead parachute on its arse.

I'll have you know that "Jacques FUCKING Villeneuve" is one of the fastest drivers to have ever held a steering wheel.

The absolute state of the future of F1

F1 should just ditch the hybridshit and move to alternative fuels.

Why they binned the orchestra theme of F1?

We can't move the blame to the sharters. Formula was already ruined before Liberty stepped in.

Who made the fucking move to 2014 regs?

It definitely IS the engines causing the problems. The dev cost is absurdly high which means that only factory teams and RB can have engines and money left to build a good car around it

Zero competitiveness and one driver/team dominating all the time.

>that's why I'm afraid of 2021 regs

DRS is already artificial and that was another Bernie blunder

Implying engine suppliers wouldn't spend this much money on regular engines.
the v8 era was only cheapo because performance development was basically frozen on the engines, which only resulted in the high reliability and solidifying Renault as the best engine of the v8 era.
Fron the v10 era the engine costs are not really representative, as the only know prices are of the engines used by the slower half of the grid (sauber, jordan, minardi, etc) because every competitive teams all were factory backed ones( ferrari, mclel, willy, renault) , where price is a really flexible matter as in some cases the whole engine development and manufacturing was part of the team

obviously bigger teams will spend more an dhave an advantage. i think there should be spending caps and random audits to combat this. but what im tlaking baput is the minimum cost to develop. its definitely cheaper to build a very powerful larger displacement na engine than a 1.6t hybrid with kinetic and heat scavenging units and energy storage devices. this is about lowering development costs so that more teams cna participate and smaller teams wont be priced out, no?

Merc had v6 turbohybrid in the works since 2011 (some sources say since 2010) and they threatened Bernie's FOM with quitting and got FIA abroad possibly by using more clandestine means.
Lelnault, impetuous over having successful v8, ate the bait. For some reason even Ferrari got onboard this highly expensive, complicated and frankly shitty engine formula and agreed to a retarded engine token development system.
Under the token system you had to spend tokens if you wanted to develop a part of the engine "to ensure no one overspends on development" t. FIA. So for example ERS would cost X tokens to develop and ICE would cost XX tokens and so on.
What made it completely retarded was that after 2 years, over 50% of the engine were supposed to be closed offfrom development. If you developed closed parts, ding dong disqualification. The parts that got closed off the first year (2015) were the most crucial parts and then in 2016 the second most crucial.
The token system Merc aggressively rushed through into rules ensured they had total domination from 2014 to 2016, until Ferrari literally had to get Renault and Honda onboard and say "fuck your F1 if we can't develop". The development finally opened for 2017.
Part of the reason why Honda was so shit is because they missed 2014 as a development year and had a shitty ass ICE+ERS concept they couldn't develop because of the token system. The token system is also the reason why that Merc, even having an aerodynamically poor car with worst chassis of the top three, was able to carbabby from 2014 to 2016.
In 2017 it got better, but still an easy year for Mercs. 2018 again saw huge gainz for all engine manufacturers except Merc.

Unexposable is some nuanced adjective that I cannot possibly comprehend, right? I tried to understand the definition last year. However, the events of the season i.e. Max scoring 79 more points than Daniel made it all very confusing.

2019: I am uncucked

youre right when max isnt being a fuckup he is faster than ricciardo
but over an ideal season (no meme races, no engine failures, nothing fucky happening) he wouldnt beat ricciardo because he still lacks the needed consistency
if he were to become as consistent as lewis, kimi or even alonso he's well on his way to success but his brain is too small for that
that's like saying rich energy is more successful than red bull because their drink is better for you sespite the fact that you cant fucking find it anywhere

>but over an ideal season (no meme races, no engine failures, nothing fucky happening)
Yes he would, no meme races, engine failures and nothing funky means that the faster driver ends up ahead. And once Max picked his consistency up from Canada onwards it's laughable to think that Ricciardo had a chance against him, because you can blame his 2018 issues all you want but he never retired from a race when he was ahead of Max or pressuring him during that period.

Sabotage is sacrificing your faster drivers race for the worse driver

but ricciardo was obviously faster in baku? I dont think they should've used team orders but the crash was largley on max moving around like an inbred

>Riccy couldn't pass Amx on merit
max doesn't move over on him and he does pass on merit

Tbh max got what was long coming to him at Baku.

I really loved that Bentley, even with the race modifications. Great design and a great color and still looks good today.
Mercedes is also impressive in terms of technology and held up really well. To this day the W140 S600 is the only car that I have ever been in that had an electronically controlled inner rear view mirror.

Vettel's number is 5, you fucking idiot

Been following F1 in print since about 2011 but I literally never watched a full race live until last year. As much as I liked the sport, and I'd been watching Le Mans since like 2014, F1's TV coverage is so ass that I never bothered to actually watch until 2018 when I really got into pirate streams, and then F1TV when they launched it.

2018 was actually the best year for F1 TV coverage in America since, after the disastrous first race, ESPN just aired Sky's broadcast of qualy and the race ad free (though if F1TV doesn't use David Croft as the race caller, I can absolutely understand how that can be worth paying for)

btw how is F1TV?

>people actually prefer matte orange to this beaut
are they okay in the head?

is the espn coverage being affected by this latest debacle? i got that shit free last season

I don't even have TV anymore, all I watch is over the internet. F1TV is just Sky's broadcast, but with the added bonus of being able to tune into any car's onboard camera and radio, rather than the commentary, and also being able to turn off the commentary altogether, or turn it to another language. It's also on mobile so it's just all around more practical for me than being limited to a television set and whatever modicum of internet access ESPN would give me.

Serious question

Will Ferrari F1 win now or win later?

what debacle? ESPN has already announced they are going to air all the GPs ad free like last year

>If there are requirements, whether they are safety or improvement, then we act on those in conjunction with the FIA and F1 when Charlie Whiting puts down his track inspection report at the conclusion of the event. The changes, if they are at all warranted, and we will find out after Formula 1 do the work with us, they are likely to be minor in nature. The circuit is the circuit.

Albert Park is underrated
i'd probably take it over 2/3 of the other circuits on the calendar

Why are you still watching their garbage? Just stream it the way technology intended. You wouldn't be of a certain thrifty group of desert peoples by chance, would you?

>Apple

I'm offended.

You can't pass on it and there are no interesting corners. In terms of pure track layout, it's worse than:
Bahrain
China
Baku
Red Bull Ring
Silverstone
Hockenheim
Spa
Monza
Suzuka
COTA
and Interlagos.
It's an entirely mediocre circuit and the Australian GP would be better served at Surfer's Paradise or Adelaide. (Or Bathurst if you want real memes)

Ahem, 507...

>the Australian GP would be better served at Surfer's Paradise or Adelaide. (Or Bathurst if you want real memes)

Don't forget Queensland Raceway

The Australian GP - as much as Bathurst would outmeme Baku - should logically be held at Phillip Island. Fucking godtier track, pretty views, close enough to a capital city for infrastructure, enough runoff to settle Charlie's nerves.

Bathurst would have to be de-Bathursted if F1 wanted to race there. It's only grade 2 track.

If F1 wanted to race there it would be given Grade 1 status.

Then Charlie visits and deems Forest's Elbow and Dipper too dangerous and calls Tilke to flatten it.
