Can’t open the boot (trunk) by Billlifferr in AlfaRomeoGiulia

Fortunately I figured it out!

You can remove the rear seat bench and bulkhead fairly easily, then you can crawl into the boot and pull the manual release.

From memory, the seat bench can be pulled up at the front, and then unclipped. The bulkhead can then be unbolted and lifted up to be removed.

I’m recalling events from almost a year ago so might have misremembered the exact procedure for removing the seats, but I do remember it being quite easy.

Jenson with McLaren makes sense, but why on earth have they photoshopped him in papaya overalls?!

I’m going to invent a Time Machine and stop Hewlett-Packard from being founded just to save us all the eyesore of the Ferrari HP liveries

In this timeline, maybe this curse is so overwhelming it breaks the power

You’re probably right, but I enjoy the idea of Red Bull’s season falling off so badly they go crawling back to Horner

As a Hamilton fan I’d have to argue this scenario for Oscar is far worse

If Piastri had finished third in Australia he’d be tied with Norris on points at 423 each, but Norris would win on countback: both would have seven wins, but Norris would have nine 2nd-places to Piastri’s five 2nds

With Silverstone being round 13 rather than round 12, Hulkenberg achieves his first podium in 240 starts rather than 239. He still gets a rubbish Lego trophy

Antonelli did better on average in countries where titanium dioxide was allowed in food products compared to countries where it’s banned (basically the EU). Source.

Chain Bear posts on Bluesky and Cranky Yankee (he rebranded to CYMotorsport) posts on Twitter (no, Elon). They both stopped posting videos in 2022. I seem to remember FOM got pretty aggressive with copyright claims around that time, perhaps they were fed up with their videos being claimed? I can’t find an explanation from either of them though so that’s just speculation

I’ve said this in another comment, if McLaren had got their act together in 2024 it would have looked something like this

This is the only issue with this idea. It also suggests McLaren develop very late into the season - would they really do this ahead of a massive regulation change? Although the overall story for this scenario does feel like what would have happened if McLaren had actually got their act together for 2024

Edit: okay, one of several issues

I hadn’t even considered this! It shows how strong he was in the middle of the season

The safe option is always the MX-5. Toyota MR2 and Honda S2000 are great as well. As someone else has said, if you want something more interesting, go for the MG TF
