I know practically nothing about Formula One racing, but even I know this is a downright erotic livery.

Instead of calling it livery, just say “car uniform,” and no one will know it’s not about football.

Also, the bright gently caress-off yellow Camel color scheme is underrated. Rothmans Williams was a decent look too but better on the Group C Porsches. The West McLarens ushered in Ron Dennis’ anodyne sterile corporate look, while the Benson & Hedges Jordans had fun with the look and were also bright yellow. algebra testes posted:Sure as gently caress isn't any passing in Modern F1

I'm not a huge F1 expert but passing has become difficult due to a combination of the size and aerodynamics of the modern cars. One team and driver in particular (Red Bull and Max Verstappen) are nearly unbeatable.

NFC West really did unite for one night https://www.nbcsportsbayarea.com/nfl/san-francisco-49ers/kyle-shanahan-seahawks-eagles/1684167/ quote:"That was awesome because we had an eight-day week ... So that was the first time I was home by halftime and got to sit and watch the game with my family," Shanahan told KNBR. "It was probably one of the most exciting games I've been able to watch because it did pertain to us a little bit, with what everyone was looking for, and I didn't have to do work at the time so I got to sit down and enjoy it. Full interview with Shanahan, if you're interested: https://omny.fm/shows/the-shanahan-and-lynch-show/12-22-kyle-shanahan-joins-kerry-crowley-john-dicki

The best thing about concrete astroturf is you could spike the ball into the stratosphere after a touchdown. The most pure form of TD celebration. I remember that team well because it was my first sports heartbreak. I didn't really understand the game but my dad was excited and I could sense the Seahawks had a legit chance to win it all that year. We went on to lose on a heartbreaking instant replay that took away an interception in I believe the AFC championship against the Oilers. My hatred of the refs and Seattle sports persecution complex was born that day. I don't actually know today if the int should have stood or not. Edit: my memories are all scrambled and the Oilers game I am thinking of was in 1988 and it was not the championship. I was really young in 84 so it makes sense I couldn't have cared that much at that time, heh. DancingMachine fucked around with this message at 20:50 on Dec 23, 2023 |

Mine as well, I think it was while McGwire was still with the A’s because he hit a dinger over that scoreboard in right field during BP, which happened to be where I was standing at the time.

One team and driver in particular (Red Bull and Max Verstappen) are nearly unbeatable. F1 has rarely been as pass-happy or focused as say NASCAR, partially because of road courses, partially because the cars are so divergent in ability; that’s been the way forever. There is actual good battling, it’s just happening for like 5th place or lower and sometimes doesn’t make the broadcast.

I thought that game could get ugly since the Titans love dragging teams down to their level. For a 10 AM road game, you just get the W however you can. And now they control their destiny for the Wild Card. All going as planned.

That is very correct. Also inhumanly skilled drivers. This season was actually pretty fun if you just ignored Verstappen. Anyone that is interested in F1, I would honestly suggest watching Drive to Survive on Netflix. It is probably the best place to start if you want to understand the sport and decide if you want to follow and watch live. Lifespan fucked around with this message at 01:39 on Dec 25, 2023 |

On Running to the House, they saw the Playcard with his offensive coordinator, and they bowed down and worshiped The Run. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of blocking receivers, churning legs, and ball security.
