Confirmed excellent Drivers Mad Max Lewis (what a great drive) Lando Confirmed Frauds Bottas - He's just bad Mazebin - By the end of the season he will give birth to a thousand memes Perez - Just another #2 Red Bull driver to get chewed up and spit out Alonso - Should have stayed retired

If George's contract is up this year, I can't see him staying at Williams. Mercedes won't want to lose him, so either Bottas is out or George goes to McClaren and Dan is out.

italian quid posted:I really don't think the FIA or FOM fundamentally understand that the races are boring because nobody can pass other than the top three teams on the rest of the field, I don't see how a sprint race resolves that but 🤷🏼♂️ They do get it, but they also understand that F1 has gone too far down the rabbit hole to change that without completely blowing up the formula. That's not going to happen until those in charge start to lose money. Until then, they will nibble around the edges making minor changes.

1) America does not need an F1 race. As an American I like watching the races at 8 AM on Sunday morning in my Pajamas. 2) American drivers do not make it to F1 because who wants to live in a Socialist paradise with free healthcare? 3) Haas' F1 team is a Fraudulent Faux American team run by Italians who want to embarrass America. 4) Ban Wings.

What area some examples of a hopeless backmarker team like the current Williams and Haas actually getting their act together and competing for podiums? Bonus points if you can come up with teams that did it without a change in ownership.

Panic! At The Tesco posted:I haven't read much about the upcoming new regs. How likely are they to actually make a difference this time? Honestly sometimes I wish F1 was a spec series, it's pretty ridiculous when it gets to the point that the top two teams can lap every other car. Generally in racing, no matter what the series is, eventually there will be a handful top teams who outspend everyone else and dominate. Changing the build rules often shakes this up so there is a reasonable chance that Ferrari will once again suck.

Theophany posted:"they" didn't, Croft did. Di Resta immediately corrected him but was, bizarrely, overruled. I think you are missing something here. Crofty said something to the effect of "I'm being told it's a 5 second penalty" which can be translated to "the support guy talking into the headphones is telling me that it's one 5 second penalty" You may now resume your Crofty bashing.

BWV posted:Big Lewis doing Big Work quote:The high media profile of Formula 1 masks the fact that most teams are relatively small organisations with limited HR capabilities. Recruitment to five or ten graduate positions may result in over a thousand applications. As a shortcut, some teams filter to candidates with 1st class honours degrees only. Most teams recognised filtering by particular university groups resulted in less diversity; this is discouraged but many recruiting managers acknowledged that they sought out applications from universities - typically Russell Group - with which they had strong relationships. I'm not sure I'm reading this right. Are they saying that teams are filtering out of candidates that don't have honours degrees and this is bad for diversity?

Aphex- posted:They're talking about first class honours which are the highest awards you can achieve for your degree and Russell Group universities are like our version of Ivy League schools. So basically selecting only the top achievers from the more prestigious universities that all their mates went to. Thanks. Trying to convince the teams to hire anyone besides the top candidates because of their skin color seems like a long shot.

Especially the last couple of weekends, it's the most I've shouted at the TV and it's caused my boyfriend to come into the room to make sure everything is okay. F1 is run by Europeans who think soccer is a sport played by manly men when in fact it's a bunch of drama queens faking injuries. They run F1 the same way .

I'm still trying to get my arms around how the cost cap works. Next year, if the fraudulent Bottas ends up driving for Alpha Tauri and punts our good boy George so many times that Mercedes has to exceed the cost cap due to all the replacement parts, is Mercedes just screwed?
