MZ posted:Merc's clever dual-axis steering has been deemed legal for this season but banned for '21. It hasn't been banned, that rule states they CAN ban it for 2021 (even if it's legal) if they don't feel it adds anything to F1. Mercedes figure it's probably win/win, if it's allowed for this season then the other teams have to try and copy it which wastes R&D resources, then if it's banned at the end of the season everyone's in the same boat. e; ok it has been banned now NtotheTC fucked around with this message at 16:46 on Feb 21, 2020 |

the UK has no average racing drivers it has extremely good drivers and then extremely bad Max Chiltons bringing it down to "average". Frankly it's only Lewis that's keeping us at the top of the table right now.

the kentucky quid posted:The FIA never said they cheated. This sounds like slander. Slander implies I'm damaging their reputation. If anything I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt by saying they're competent enough to deliberately cheat. There's a fair to middling chance that they just accidently built an engine so badly they couldn't regulate the fuel flow properly

In fact I gave Gasly a huge amount of poo poo but just watching what a garbage loving team Red Bull is is enough to see its 90% on them how he performed after his bad start to the season That episode was hard to watch. Goddamn any Red Bull and by extension Max Verstappen fans should just gently caress themselves with a large stick NtotheTC fucked around with this message at 22:38 on Feb 28, 2020 |

djssniper posted:It's not a sport you should need help in, Horner pretty much said it at the beginning, you perform or you're out (broadly all jobs he meant though) It's more the fact that red bull should be a one car team. If performance is all that matters then why did they push out ricciardo? A driver that performed just as well as Verstappen on any given race day. Then they have the temerity to complain that they're running a one - legged race and should be doing better in the WCC? Maybe don't throw your other driver under the bus if you want them to help you win

Khablam posted:The point isn't that winning that race was some unconscionable feat of excellence, but that he had a clear and present mind to be in the hunt and not gently caress it up. No-one is saying that Gasly was world class, just that RBR is just a very obviously toxic atmosphere with little to no management and not enough resources to support 2 drivers. If they had been able to manage Gasly he would have been able to finish much better (as evidenced by his much stronger relative performances in the Toro Rosso) and probably take more points of the Ferrari/Mercs when it was possible to do so. Instead they ran him into the ground then criticised the resulting mess that they caused and cried about not being able to challenge for second in the WCC. Having to kick a driver mid season smacks of terrible decision making and they don't have the talent pool to dip into if Albon isn't able to keep up this season.

Ok comprehension is not your strong suit so I'll do the crayon version, here are my talking points: 1) RBR are a bad toxic team with poo poo management 2) The poo poo management is a large part of the reason Gasly sucked poo poo so badly last season 3) The above statement is not synonymous with "Gasly is an amazing driver"

Big Huski Boi posted:Gasly sucks and was bad at Red Bull because he collapsed under the pressure of a bigger team. Albon did perfectly fine ergo your brain is broken. Gasly is not a good driver, 100% agreed. He's not even Hulkenberg level I'd put him somewhere around Grosjean/Perez. HOWEVER he's not "lapped by Max at the Redbull Ring" bad. He can clearly drive a car fast enough (because he did it in the TR) to be 3rd/4th on the days where the Red Bull was the fastest car and was winning races. And no that's not a spectacular performance, and it's probably not even enough to keep his seat come the end of the season, but it would have got RBR their 2nd WCC place and maybe not completely destroy one of the drivers from their meagre talent pool. And all they had to do was not have Marko/Horner trying to manage a situation that they don't have the ability to manage. Also Albon got a completely pressure free environment and did well and you think that proves your point and not mine?
