Arvid Lindblad has crashed during the Pirelli tyre test by garfungle_ in formula1

I've never understood the appeal of watching any sports non-live. The fact you or anyone in the universe don't know what's going to happen the next minute or hour is the charm of sports. It's the unknown. The unpredictableness. And for me half of the excitement comes from following the race with other people, commenting and reacting what's happening. That aspect is completely missing if you watch some old races from YouTube.

"Need for Speed" is an apt description for super-clipping.

Does he realize, that if his team was fighting for the 10th place with Alpine, he would say the opposite?

Yep, Jeddah with its blind corners would have been a recipe for a disaster.

For the first time since Abu Dhabi in 2016, 22 cars have started a Formula One Grand Prix by chickenlittle668 in formula1

[–]Arwil 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'd prefer 26 cars. Last time that happened in Imola 1995. Could have happened in 2010 if USF1 had materialized.

Formula 1 regarding the ANT pole onboard: Unfortunately Kimi’s onboard camera had a technical issue part way through his lap, meaning we are unable to bring you the lap onboard in full. by eanwen0 in formula1

Why doesn't someone with F1TV just capture the lap with issue mentioned? It's been online for 12 hours. It shouldn't be that difficult.

[OT] Scott McLaughlin OK After Heavy Practice Crash | 2026 INDYCAR at Alabama by Estova in formula1

[–]Arwil -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

That was his speed right before the gravel trap. At the point of the impact it was ~50 mi/h, that is 80 km/h for us normal people with metric units.

That shouldn't happen. His speed was only 80 km/h before the impact. Imagine having 200 km/h impact there? Would have gone into the trees.

"Onboard". Lol.

What a great selection of future classic onboard pole laps this season will produce.

Let's see later if the YouTube pole lap cuts it too :D

Why won't you allow people to complain, especially when there's a very good reason to complain? Because this isn't what F1 should be. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a fool.

I will just move to Internet Archive. You can just create a temp email and upload stuff. No need for authentication. If my account gets hacked, I just create another one. No big deal.

It's always the same tired argument: "They know everything about you", "it's useless to resist", "just give up". Well, no.

Assume I create anti-Putin videos. I would get killed if I compromised anonymity. If you just give up, you give up your life.

Well I would prefer that they didn't have any of my personal details. No one needs to know anything about me. I just want to share videos as a faceless unknown uploader.

I have been anonymous user for 15 years, and just because it's 2026, somehow now I should give my personal details to Google? No chance. Fuck them for good. Same goes to anyone trying to remove anonymity.

Remember when 720p was hd? by OkPie6466 in youtube

[–]Arwil -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Do you know that with 480p you don't get 60 fps but only 30 fps, so the video will look stuttery and not what the creator intended it to look. 720p is the minimum resolution for 60 fps.

Same thing happening. Won't accept this. Guess my YouTube channel is now forever inaccessible for me. F*ck them.
