since you all are talking about netflix racing docs, i recently watched:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKwfDjfO9Pw

has anyone seen it and do they have any historical context or comments? e.g. on scorpion racing or formula ford

I don't know much about racing but I've watched this, DTS 1 and 2, and the senna doc in the past month or so

things i have surmised from my brief f1 observations:

-brit, nordic, and hispanic drivers are good
-germans are good engineers
-french are poo poo
-italians only hire italians but will occasionally hire brit engineers and german drivers for some reason???

Even more ominously, Hamilton’s fastest time was set on the hard compound tyres – Bottas’s earlier on in the session with medium tyres – while Perez used softs to end up 0.527s behind the session leader. His team mate Lance Stroll was another four tenths off in P4 as Racing Point enjoyed another impressive practice showing.

The best part was when they asked Horner who his favorite driver was in a vacuum and after a pregnant pause he was just like “whoever is winning” and you could just sense the palpable disgust from his entire family.

thats the right answer for a team principal though, even if he is garbage

They probably knew the rules were being broken. The result/reward still outweighs the penalty they get for breaking it, as they wouldn't have scored a point (should have been 2) without making that call.

Still a stupid rule that really needs to be adjusted.

good point thanks. i should get more familiar with the rules.

quote:

Sat alongside each other in the latest FIA press conference at the Spanish Grand Prix, Brown had something to say in response.

Brown said: “A lot of what Otmar said is true, I’m not an engineer but as CEO I’ve never been fined a dollar let alone €400,000, and Otmar thought it was 7.5 points until Sky told him differently.

“I’d invite him to come and join me [historic racing]. He’s got a historic car that he’s currently racing.”

No idea how reliable that place is, but RBR just buying Honda's engine designs would be interesting. The JDM fanboy in me also loves the prospect of naming it Mugen.

this will be interesting
