How many point do you all think my boy Lance Stroll will get this season?
Luke Martinez
> this is /o/ discussing f1 vs indycar. i usually say racing generals should be over there but holy shit
Connor Sanders
Thanks Jolyon, very interesting!
Luis Adams
shit
William Russell
might wanna fix your cross board link lol
Lincoln Hernandez
/o/ is a shithole So called "car enthusiasts" who know more about anime than motorsport.
Wyatt Stewart
wow. that place and thread fucking suck. Maybe we can get along after all my kiwi friend.
Angel Smith
How is an undercut real? Just drive faster.
Dominic Harris
it really hasnt been the same over there since the great corvette vs ford gt shitpost war. but there are many that know a lot about cars. they know more about cars mechanically than most here. theres retards and namefags too, but i think /o/ and the racing generals are two halves to a whole. if we were both together, we would be a complete autistic automotive hivemind. maybe we could winnow the bad shit out together
Perhaps. I'm just projecting my theory that without a solid base from an interest in motorsport, car enthusiasts tend to be kanker.
Guy with a tastfully modded Miata? He probably watched racing when he was a kid.
Guy with a stanced POS running 30 degrees of camber and is proud of the fact his car can't make it over a crosswalk because the 0.001mm of paint is to high. He never watched a race in his life.
Nathan Bell
Twitch still not live if you're waiting on that. Other stream is on the pre-race now
Gabriel Garcia
Or is it geoblocked for AU now? It's actually live on Fox506 today
Liam Ross
I'm not getting it either. Oh well.
Daniel Fisher
Fascinating how the "Indycar has a higher top speed" meme sticks in the minds of people who don't know what they're talking about.
F1 cars today are the fastest they've ever been despite being so hamstrung by regulations. I would hazard a bet though that F1 cars from 00-04 would be faster than today's cars if they were equipped with ultra-wide Pirelli slicks.
Business idea: Find whatever landfill they dump their plastic wall wrap in after the race, take a pic making sure you can see all the logos, and shame them on social media in to not using it any more.
I imagine they'd have to have the same issue in the same countries who have REEEE'd about it already. Add to that the normie "only children play video games" belief, and the hysterical "cigarette advertising aimed at child" stories in the normal media that will follow, and I doubt they'll include it in the game.
Gavin Hall
>ultra-wide Pirelli slicks weren't the 2000-04 tires wider?
Brandon Scott
and brazil wins again
Tyler Sanders
no
James Evans
Nope, also grooved so the actually contact surface area was ridiculously small. I bet the new tires are easily worth several seconds on an F2004.
But like said, the grooves reduced the contract area a lot.
Also protip: The grooves were not intended to reduce contact area. They were to make the rubber squirm around, reducing potential grip and producing more heat.
William Jones
AM doesn't contribute to F1 nor does it even do anything relevant on it's own road cars. Literally all RBR/AMG-Mercedes work.

That's the point, ya dingus. Nissan is just a sponsor for DAMS in F mEme, but they call it a Nissan.
Hence my comparison to Aston's involvement in F1.
Caleb Anderson
Boring race, but I guess Poo Good winning is meme enough in itself

Ah.. no sweetie, Formula mEme qualy was 2 hours ago.
Alexander King

Bentley Young
true. but the only time you see stance faggery on /o/ is when some fag is trying to trigger autists by being a comtrarian and spouting retardation like stance. otherwise its mostly just boomers
Samuel Martin
reeeeee got bamboozled by the local tv
Ryder Clark
HAHAHAHAHAHA the winner of pro-am doesn't even change the setup of the car for the track.
Actually it looks like a car from old carmageddon, not even 2, but addon to 1st part or something like that, don't remember its name really.
Adam Long
How the fuck did I not notice/know that Nicki is preggo? Why wasn't WAGlad memeing this more?
Jack King
Ok, now my autism is in complete denial of reality, nobody in their right mind could desing this thing.
Lucas Reed
That says 270mm contact patch, but the tires are grooved, is that perhaps where the discrepancy is? That article could easily be talking about the tires expanding somehow to narrow their grooves, rather than inflating to be wider than the maximum overall width.
Note sure if the article mentions it, because I only skimmed it before posting it, but the one where Michelin got in trouble was using the sidewall as contact patch.
their exciting and intense start sequence music is wasted on the slow getaway and hoover whine
Ryan Robinson
Just dug up the 2005 regs and they say this: >Complete wheel width must lie between 305 and 355mm when fitted to the front of the car and between 365 and 380mm when fitted to the rear. On the 1999 regulation it says the following: >The tyre mounting widths are 12” (304.8mm +/-0.5mm) front; 13.7” (348.0mm+/-0.5mm) rear. Still haven't found anything about grooves.

Elijah Jackson
any replay of what happened to bird and waffle? no? thx, mister tv director
Adam Thompson
So why Vandoorne is last? What's his excuse?
Easton Thompson
basically the factory benz team innit
Christopher Robinson
There were also several ovetakes, but I'm yet to see one
Why does waffle get biggest fanboost? Does literally the whole of Belgium vote for that meme?
Andrew Taylor
I am pretty sure attack mode and fanboost are actually time losses because they drain energy faster thus forcing coasting and because these things have no grip you also lose out on corner exits due to wheelspin
Levi Edwards
Because normies have never heard of the non ex F1 drivers.
FUCK'S SAKE WHAT A SHIT SERIES GET THAT CAR THE FUCK OUT OF HERE
Joshua White
That would actually be an electric car race I would watch that isn't Scalectrix
Isaiah Robinson
what? how is that a red flag? what a fucking joke, red flag to remove a car in one piece HAHAHAHA
Christian Hall
Been like that since after Marrakech
Benjamin Harris
It was worth it to get rid of the attack mode to be honest. Now they can use it when they restart under SC and that's that and they don't have to risk track position.
Leo Bell
I was starting to get frightened that this would be a normal race but thankfully the meme happened, and boi what a meme it is. Can't push a car in single piece anywhere off the track for like 7 minutes
Michael Johnson
Business idea: Let the safety car take attack mode if it feels like it
Hunter Evans
WEHRLEIN DOESN'T KNOW WHAT WEHRLEIN IS DOING
Sebastian Robinson
Kinda glad with the red flag. Really needed to take a shit
Thats why you don't race over a bridge, nowhere to recover a broken car. >Miami

Jaxson Stewart
>Wehrlein missed the start because he was busy talking on the team radio Literally texting at the traffic lights tier
Kayden Ross
You should be able to overtake people under the safety car if they take attack mode during it
That fucking shit Jaguar race made me fall asleep. God dammit.
Adrian Rodriguez
Hammy as a girl is bangable af and Bottas just looks like Emilia
Jaxson Ramirez
Mana was there too, and you missed it.
Jackson Collins
Don't tease me like that. I was really pushing my sleep schedule for this one and I fell asleep in my seat. So annoying to watch everything but the race.
to be honest FE should be support for F1 oh fugg I just remembered they can't do 45 minutes of racing on regular tracks because there's not enough of slow speed corners
Joshua Morgan
>the race has been over for 2 hours and the Finn is STILL triggered Yikes.
Hahahahahahahaha You still believe that with the current unrestricted development (no spec freezing or token system) v8 atmospheric engines would be cheaper? :DDDDDDD
Ryder Cox
No, alas, she went full bogan.
Christopher Barnes
Alcoturk afaik is the same as rally and marshall turk
No I don't. Friendly reminder that the last V8 era had "cheap" engines because performance related development was forbidden, Engines development was frozen after 3 years, after that only reliability related improvements were allowed. Before that in the V10 era all the top engines were simillarly pricey, but because all were in manufacturer backed teams there are only estimates, customer engines which has known costs were always midpack or latter half of the grid things (apart from the Fisi memewin in 03 brazil). They were at minimum 1 year old (petronas, acer branded ferraris), or even 4-5 year old (asiatech, supertec) or just plain shit even as new (Ferd/Cossie)
Adam Harris
Nick Heidfeld probably
Justin Brooks
he thought mewing was a meme
Cameron Jenkins

I always though JPM should have managed a WDC. He certainly had the raw talent for it, if not the brains.
I am not. I'm pretty much an office clerk. Anyway after a while you learn how ot put on your happy face for the tourists.
Baku 2018 >ok let's inspect the on-track recovery vehicles >ok everything looked good, expect that truck with the "allah korusun" sticker >it needs to go, we don't want political or religious messages Why is FIA so incompetent?
Caleb Clark
>yfw Walkenhorst BTFO Rowe Racing in Spa 24h so hard that Rowe switched to Porsches out of butthurt for this season, thus revealing themselves as bad guys
I haven't, I nearly drove an F3 car with Puresport but decided on some extra laps in their 488 instead. That being said, they set a great atmosphere and the guys that drove the single-seaters that day were very complimentary on how they were prepared and what they got out of it. If you have deep enough pockets they've got an old Damon Hill Arrows too.
RBRing has FR2.0 cars and an FR3.5 available at non-very-extortionate prices - that's been on my radar for a while too but I've never managed to line up the pieces.

What angle do drivers legs sit at? Are the pointed upwards slightly? If yes don't they get uncomfortable during the GP, as the blood drains from the legs
Joseph Hall
Yes the feet are higher than the buttocks but the G forces probably keep the blood not far from the feet.
Juan Peterson
Honestly thought Hungary was better than this.

Yeah after I posted, I saw the gtr on the plate :D

I slept two hours last night. I'm rooted. But I need to see some race cars go over the carnage that they made of the bumps before Schwedenkreuz. Hurry the fuck up, people.
Julian Rodriguez
Thinking of giving that whole WW2 era Dictator thing another go with the /f1/ Hearts of Iron USSR campaign
/f1/ yet to actually win WW2/Cold War so need some /f1/ related Division names as we all know fighting for some meme fuels a lad more than any weapon
Yes this will probably end in another defeat due to my Ferrari-tier strategies
Noice. Should dig around to see the provinces in this to see what faction has the best circuits from the current calendar. If the fighting bogs down I'll try & capture as many of them for /f1/
I love Spa, I love Bathurst, but holy shit this place is a fucking wonder, even if they did rape Schwedenkreuz.

I was a competition driver for Formula Student (fsae in the states) last year. You'd probably have more luck finding a formula ford or formula 500 car rather than a team's old car but goddamn are they fun to rip. >mfw wasn't fast enough to run the actual autox/endurance events and was relegated to skidpad and accel :| being the backup on test days tho was hype
only women drove those things here. blokes, unless they were jockey-tier tiny were too heavy.
Colton Baker
it is worth it. especially as your first on track experience. i nearly shat myself when i got into the FR with race planet.
Carter Powell

Am dumb and realized you meant bought track day experiences but honestly for similar monies and more commitment you could pick up a formula vee or other lower-class open wheels
Ryder Turner

Well that's Brundle fucked for getting his minimum participation before the N24.
Thomas Murphy
There is actually a student team in my city that's trying to build an electric vehicle and compete in Le Mans 24h.

watching this VLN thing, I'll never complain about the terrible camera work on F1 again.
There's fairly strict rules on the Nurburgring licence programs.
Henry Morgan
I think they started at the back of their group, didn't see anyone trying to get past the slow cars on the first lap. Some people did start from the pit lane though, they had to start at the very back.
