The Croc posted:Pastor will always have that win and tbh he won fair and square that day and didn't lose it to alonsos pressure. Its just so random to think he managed that when usually he makes stupid errors to take himself out. I think Maldonado's problem is that he feels pressured to do better, he feels the need to justify the money his sponsors pony up by winning every place possible. When he's in the lead, or in a position where he can't possibly do better, he's not under that pressure any more and he does well.

A full recording of the BBC broadcast of Spa 1985, if anyone wants a mainline of nostalgia. It has the pre-race too, if you want to see how it used to be done. Nearly 30 years ago! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VX1tM7IaVw

This one chops and changes audio during the race; there is definitely a Hunt & Walker one only out there, I'll see if I can find it again.

The Renault Toro Rosso saga is heating up deliciously. Helmut Marko mentioning that they might rebrand Toro Rosso to be more prominently yellow to appease Renault rather than just selling the entire outfit to them. Then again Franz Tost has also mentioned that Toro Rosso is totally open to the idea of Renault buying them and would be a massive step forward to be owned by a manufacturer team. I'm turgid.

renault needs to resurrect the minardi name and fund the team entirely through donations

There should be other major brands in it. Renault, BMW, Toyota. All those companies have more money than god, there's no reason they shouldn't be burning piles of it in F1. It's as good a place as any to burn piles of money.

i'm fine with renault punting out red bull but really the last thing we need is another mid-2000s run of lovely, underachieving manufacturer teams who serve no purpose other than to inflate budgets. bmw and toyota and audi can supply engines.

The caveat of Renault buying Toro Rosso is that Red Bull will most likely pull out entirely at that point (according to Christian Horner).

BMW was cool until they shat out the F1.09 and ruined Robert Kubica's life, and also my life.

poopzilla posted:who gives a poo poo I give a poo poo because Red Bull is a team that dominated for past few years in FIA Formula 1 World Championship by Bernie Ecclestone & CVC and now they might be loving off for good. Which is a thing I want to happen so I'm quite eager for Renault to buy Scuderia Toro Rosso (Italiano for Team Red Bull).

Red Bull realising at the moment that for their decade of achievement, people don't care for fizzy drinks companies swanning around acting like they own the place.

Cigarettes loving suck. But god drat do I love seeing them plastered all over cars on the grid in the classic races I've seen. Monster and Redbull can gently caress off. Bring back smokes and more booze. (and weed, add that)
