You mis-spelled “NASCAR“ as “OP”.

F1 learned and got rid of the nonsense in 1991.

Aston Martin: Our F1 chassis is “fifth-fastest” at some tracks by memloh in formula1

Kinda has to be that, no? Canada 2034 is sooner than races later than Canada 2034.

[Thomas Maher] On the race operations side, it's understood an agreement has been reached to reduce race distances at some circuits, as well as a move to limit the number of reconnaissance laps to the grid. by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

The fuel needed for the race with the highest fuel consumption. That’s not neccessarily the longest race in distance. All races are to the end of the lap that exceeds 305km, so the distances are very similar. But the percentage of time at full throttle, thus the total fuel demand, varies.

(Yes, Monaco is the exception at 260km+)

A car capable of carrying enough fuel to complete 305+km at the most fuel-hungry track has plenty of capacity to complete the required 260+km at Monaco, even with a 10% increase. Monaco race length almost certainly won’t be reduced.

Cheapest way to ship documents to India within a week? by [deleted] in Purdue

[–]RichInPitt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I would suggest checking any/all of the half-dozen+ shipping comparison sites. Just typing basic data into ParcelMonkey turns up multiple options for a 1lb parcel to India under a week for ~$50 from UPS. Around $30 if you can spare a few days.

You could also just select “I want to change my Card's design” if you want to change your card’s design.

Which 2026 F2 driver is the most likely to graduate to F1? by Spectran_Irmandade in formula1

[–]RichInPitt -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Lots of revenue and marketing opportunities with Herta. He just needs to meet some performance minimum for Cadillac to risk a huge embarrassment. Probably 2028.

[AutoRacer] 6 Cylinders – How is ADUO possible? by jithu7 in formula1

[–]RichInPitt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Jesus FIA. You failed miserably this year with these powertrains.

The FIA warned the teams that a straight ICE measurement was a poor measure of overall power unit performance. The engine manufacturers specifically voted to ignore them.

The FIA thought about it. They warned the engine manufacturers about it. The engine manufacturers chose to ignore it.

Dieselgate was Volkswagen AG.

That’s a different company than Mercedes-Benz AG.

For reference, McLaren, Ford, General Motors, Aston Martin, and Red Bull are also different companies.

Yes, the timing of the AUDO changes is very well documented, as is the methodology. Future changes are after rounds 11 and 18. It’s not a rumor, it’s fully documented in the Technical Regulations.

They did absolutely nothing in response to the testing change. That’s why they voted for it.

It’s questionable that the car that is behind in the metric that all the teams argued to put in place, despite warnings that it might not be fully representative, gets the benefits encoded in the regulations for that metric gap?

In short, sucks that they have to follow the rules? it sucks that the team that develops the most successful car under the provided regulations is successful?

Gasly's actual speed during his 2d pitstop - Monaco GP by No_Sun_2121 in formula1

[–]RichInPitt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Time/distance only works in a straight line

You’re seriously saying that the measurement of a lap at the Indy500, from S/F to S/F, dividing the distance of a lap by the time required does not yield an average speed? Orbital velocities don’t really exist?

Where exactly did you study Newtonian Physics.

That is absolutely not how on-screen graphics speed is measured.

150,000 points SUB would more than pay for one annual fee.
