The baked in assists make it easy to think you are a vroom vroom god. Turn off braking assist and you will get exposed, spin, bin it, etc. I did a Ferrari career mode as my 'tutorial' and then I started a Haas one (I hate Haas, but wanted a challenge in a shit box) no assists and I'm spinning etc. Keep fucking up, rewinding and seeing why you did that. For me China was brutal because I kept going flat out at the end of a turn. I found I needed to lift more and let the steering wheel fall back into place. They teach that at real racing schools, they knock you into a drift so you can 'pause, correct, recover' it's my weakest point, because I kept fucking up in front of people, I kept fucking up. Also Spa is really fast and has significant elevation change. Melbourne is pretty much just flat. Makes life easier. Baku, Monaco, and Singapore with no assists make me want to an hero though.

there's something seriously wrong when everybody selects a maximum of softest tires for every race. they need to make the soft tire way more soft, let it only last for +/-10 laps instead of 3/4 of a race distance.

Cameron Baker
Or they could make tyres that don't artificially degrade and can last for as long as possible so that we can see drivers pushing for as long as possible instead of artificially managing their SHIT tyres? Just a thought.
Aaron Stewart
>making F1 even bigger MWL shitfest it already is
Landon Sullivan
f1 has always been about managing tires, you'll never let the teams unlearn that. but in recent years it's just more obvious and more advantageous because it's the only reason to come into the pits. when there was refueling, you had to come in anyway when you ran out of fuel after (maybe) conserving tires for a bit.
Easton Russell
>let's make everybody drive with deliberately shit tyres Doesn't appeal to me personally. Evening the playing field can be achieved with cost caps and standardisation of some parts, which thankfully is what Liberty are doing.
It still would be about managing tyres even if the tyres were durable, because all tyres wear out, but I just think it's stupid to have tyres that are deliberately designed to degrade just to artificially create pitstops.

Colton Scott
>source? Him leaving the track nearly every single race. Usually multiple times. And if not in the race, in the qualifying.
Gabriel Parker
no. motogp needs gravel.
riders tumbling on gravel might break a bone but it's preferable to sliding into a barrier at the same speed you came off because asphalt doesn't slow them down.
look at Phillip Island - no asphalt, specifically because it was designed for motogp.
Chase Collins
business idea: foam pits instead of grass, asphalt or gravel
>Just like the other drivers No, not like "the other drivers". Hamilton does it noticably more often.
>no one would leave the track unless they do a big fail Yes, its Hamilton we're talking about. He usually leaves the track because he fucks up in a "big fail" manner, not to cut corners or anything like that. You just don't notice because the Mercedes allows him to get away with it. Remember the few seasons when he didn't have a dominant car and where he usually finsihed? He wasn't quite Gasly-tier, of course, but he certainly was not the "racing god" some people make him out to be.
Jordan Rodriguez
I googled why F1 got rid of gravel traps and people on Reddit say it's because it makes the cars flip. But F1 cars have very strong roll hoops, so who cares if the car flips? In fact wouldn't it be better for them to flip, because it's taking energy out of the car, therefore reducing the force of any impact with the barriers?
Sebastian Wilson
A lesbian porn with three of them would be highly blessed
Caleb Taylor
>In fact wouldn't it be better for them to flip, because it's taking energy out of the car, therefore reducing the force of any impact with the barriers? correct. look at kvyat's crash at suzuka in 2015. car went over but didn't touch the wall iirc and it was a soft, slow landing. had that been on asphalt, may have been a high speed hit on the wall.

>stay inside track limits on city streets >can't do that on TILKEd tracks I wonder why, could it be there's a severe punishment for an offtrack on city circuits?
>5th at worst at the end of the year In cars that were highly competitive, yes. During the whole so-called "Red Bull" era, he had the second-best car and Webber underperformed. But Alonso in a rather mediocre Ferrari generally finished second. Before that, Hamilton gave titles away in the storngest car of the field and only edged it against Massa (arguably with a bit of help from others).
>This still doesn't mean that he wouldn't be able to adapt to the new conditions as much as the other drivers He ended up in gravel pretty often when it still was more common. That "FIA craning him out" thing was not a joke. That happened. And no, it wasn't legal back then, but FIA really doesn't care about that.
>If the tracks let you abuse the track limit, of course you will do it I repeat: Hamilton doesn't just abuse track limits, he misses braking points regularly under no pressure whatsoever.

Jaxson Baker

Anyway: Applying different systems after the season is done is retarded, as it doesn't take into account what would have been done differently by drivers and teams with that "old system" in place. And it still doesn't prove anything that retard thinks it proves.
Jackson Cooper
In Dr. Did Watkins book (published in 2004 I think) he talks about how he and the safety committee were researching ways to effectively slow down the cars before impacting a barrier.
They found asphalt was the most effective, followed by gravel, and then grass.
So based on this study FOM mandated the minimum asphalt run off. I might find the book and their data this weekend to show y'all, but I am not home rn.

Camden Smith
Come on user I'll help you get a sample so we can do a count with this microscope. Got to make sure those swimmers are all nice and healthy.
I'd actually support giving points all the way down. Because let's say you have one person who gets 10th once, and then comes last / retires the whole rest of the season. Then say another guy comes in 11th in every single race out of 20 races. Thus beating backmarkers in every single race. The first guy will of course beat the second guy in the standings, but he shouldn't.
Nicholas Sanders
And also of course from the team perspective too. If a team makes a car which consistently comes in 11th in every single race out of 20, then they should get more points than a team which makes a car which comes in 10th once, then retires / breaks down in every other race. That 10th place could easily be a fluke. So awarding points all the way down will give us standings that are much more representative of actual performances.
At the moment, finishing 11th is no different in terms of points to finishing 20th, or indeed getting a DNF. Which is stupid. We should actually be measuring the performance of teams and drivers.
Mason Hernandez
2021 concept cars give me a pic related kind of vibe. Are they also gonna be shorter than current cars?
10-8-6-5-4-3-2-1 was god tier and gave us the best seasons (03, 05, 06, 07, 08 were elite seasons).
Jaxon Stewart
>1st - 20 points >2nd - 19 points FIA obviously don't want that. They've always tried to go the other direction, making wins worth much more than second places.
Didn't watch those seasons that closely but I know they were close, so maybe there is a benefit to small gaps between points awards.
Okay yeah maybe you're right, otherwise someone who gets lots of 2nds and no wins could beat someone with quite a few wins. So maybe the rise in points should be exponential. But I still think it would be good if it went down to 20th. Would probably be fairer for the teams when they're working out the WCC which is important for prize money of course.

Because it's sport, winning should reward you way more than finishing second and generate more uncertainty/drama.
The current system is good, what we need is a more compact championship with half of the teams having a shot at winning a GP instead of the same three monopolizing the podium all year.
Imagine if McLaren and Renault had a contending car this season. It would be kino, the lineup of drivers hasn't been this good in a decade.

horse races are still alive and doing well I actually won some money betting on them
Jack Martin
lmao they've been able to sell korean pop music to zoomers sure it wouldn't be hard to sell them motorsports you can sell anything to anyone if you know how to
Carson Myers
I disagree wholeheartedly. It's not going anywhere any time soon.
The racing of autonomous cars, which you mention, is only in its infancy. And electric cars are being raced right now, as hybrids in F1, and as full-electrics in FE. Motorsport is not going anywhere.
Joshua Hernandez
Is there any proof of this, because I've been able to find exactly none other than the redacted name and number in a book that has no known origin or context. Has there been significant rumors for years, because it seems like he'd get metoo'd really quickly if so.
Alexander Rodriguez
I'm going to die eventually, it'll likely still be strong in my lifetime, so much like global warming, I don't give a fuck
Isaiah James
Hypercar is already dead, Aston's board will soon pull the plug thanks to plummeted share price and I doubt Toyota will go ahead alone.
Benjamin Morgan
imagine not being a taoist and consequently immortal lmao
Thomas Jones
That's the only "evidence". Jacques and Bernie are both in that book. But so are tons of people. Epstein obviously liked to hang out with rich and famous people because he thought it made him cool. Doesn't necessarily mean they're all paedos. Although they might be, who knows.
I really don't think motorsport is going to go anywhere for a very long time. People love cars. Computer programs can play chess - but this hasn't eliminated people playing chess.
Christian Ramirez
>hahahahahah >I don't watch F1. I watch Drive to Survive and F1 Esports. That's where the real entertainment is to be had :D
Just a namesake on a low res picture, with a french phone number. I wonder how many Johns and Jacks Newhouses are in the US. Fags can't grasp that based JV beat Schumi.
Christopher Butler
Tbh with you I want him to be innocent because I wear glasses too, and want to be an amateur racer
>really hoped Stroll would get a point >12th, all is lots >Nazi Bins it, Lando lelnaut'd >mfw >mfw in a sec after I remember I don't rate, but hope all the best for both Lando and Gio
This is true. But he irritates me, so my irrational side wants him gone. Russell doesn't have the car to show it yet.
Jordan Adams
t. James May
who will carry the italian flag then? He's above decent in a below decent car, meanwhile Russell can't be rated because of the state of Willy. I dislike thier zoomerism very much though.
Nolan Martin
There are no Italian prospects, so nobody.
Benjamin Morris
GOOD NEWS!
Noah Barnes
WHAT?
Isaiah Jones
exactly, thus gio needn't leave
Jaxson Young
Why not? Just because there are no other Italian prospects? Giovinazzi has shown nothing all year in races.
Gabriel Russell
It's a joke about >flags, much like Yea Forums. He's a fucking shitter, even I, the defender of shitters, have lost hope him after he binned it. But he's had a good grip on the seat partly due to the flag
Jordan Bailey
I have no problems with Lando, sure he is young ect but he seems to be enjoying being an f1 racer and doesn't seem to take himself too seriously like he is the second coming if Senna. He really comes across as a guy who is there to learn and enjoy racing. I unironically would prefer a grid filled with Lando and people like him than people like Max. Obviously it would be even better if he was a goat driver and his attitude may change as he grows, but at the moment no hate towards him or Sainz either. Both the McLaren drivers are the more enjoyable to see and listen to atm.
He wasn't even in the fucking race. That was Boschung. They literally took their analysis from a youtube video.
Gabriel Fisher

Jason Martinez
Business idea: merge WEC and Indycar, who are nothing but shriveled remains of formerly better series, and build the season around two marquee events known as the 48 hours of Le Mans and the Indy 5000.
Isaac Miller
They should repave the Monza oval and race on that instead of this snoozer of a layout
and what the fuck is that car? that livery doesn't even exist it could only be a MP motorsport car by having a nose like that but that's king and he's beside him or it could be a campos but then it should be full orange
I think it is Boccolacci's MP Motorsport from 2018.
Alexander Brooks
Holy shit. Kek e k
Brody Turner
Didn't they repave the oval pretty recently for vintage events? And aren't they also talking about wanting to get the oval homologated for F1 for 2020 or 21?
Jason Cooper
I know using the banking is unrealistic, but what if they got rid of all the chicanes?
Sebastian Lopez
I don't think F1 will ever use the oval again, but the circuit does want to revive it in other series
It's so rough it'd only be suitable for rally cars and even then it's still sketchy.
Asher Brown
i can smell your pussy :DDDD
Lincoln Cruz
Even if you smoothed it out, the transition from the banking to the front straight is fucked because they had to extend parabolica’s runoff. The track is like 1-1/2 cars wide at that point.
Don’t see how that can be fixed without an FIA Muh Safety meltdown.
Those tyres are 355mm front and 380mm rear and 660mm dia. Volume of the cylinder that is the wheel 0.251m3. Current are 305mm front and 405mm rear and 670mm dia. Volume of the cylinder that is the wheel 0.25m3.
Current tyres are smol, those tyres are big!
Matthew Peterson
Oh and those are the wets which are actually 670mm dia. So volume is actually 0.259m3.
can anybody in good conscious explain to me the difference between Albon, Norris, Gio, Sainz, Perez, Gasly, Kyvat, Hulkenberg, Russell, etc.
They are literally all the same driver. none of them are any faster than the rest. There is no benefit or detriment to swapping them around every year or promoting or demoting them. Its literally inconsequential what any of the drivers do at this point. Every driver is the same.
It goes
Hamilton Leclerc
Everyone else
most of these drivers might as well not exist
Xavier Taylor
I still don't understand how Gulf/Carribean don't build for hurricanes all these years.
Nigga... the per capita GDP of Bahamas is good because they rich nigs who take jewish off shore money.
Gabriel Jones
they dont tax any of it so they never see that money its basically just paperwork without any material benefit to the country
Jacob Watson
based paperwork.
Sebastian Sanchez
Just because you clearly don't watch F1 doesn't mean they aren't different you fucking idiot
Lincoln Nelson
their lap times dont reflect any difference between them
Jason Lee
People probably say well it happened enough already, it won't happen again. Gambler's fallacy
Dylan Jones
>implying they won't use this chance to compare Lando's pace to a 9.5/10 driver Sainz is simply not good enough for a top team, but does Lando have the potential to become one is still a question.
Matthew Richardson
based retard
David Lewis
Brought my tickets to the aus gp yesterday Excited lads
Adrian Peterson
Hey Aussies, I'm making Worms Armageddon teams of various countries F1 drivers but realised that after Brabham, Jones, Webber and the Bully that Australia has no one left interesting/meme (Don't really want to include Schenken).
Which 4 supercar drivers should fill the last slots?
Adam Hernandez
I assume for the coming January. Nice. It might be the last ever one since the teams aren't signed up beyond next year. I mean it's unlikely they won't eventually re-sign but you never know.
Xavier Morales
Lowndes, Brock, Dick, and Skaife Whincup is a good option too.
