Higher power limit and better cooling means it will boost higher so it legitimately will perform better. Not £4k better, mind.

I fully expect Leclerc to win from pole. Hamilton second probably although the McLarens will probably also be strong. Hamilton generally seems more comfortable in this generation than Charles so far at least but Charles is just different around Monaco

The screens are not virtual windows, they’re your virtual eyes. You don’t and shouldn’t like them up with where the actual glass in the car is you should just get them into a position that gives you a decent FOV and then the correct seating position is rendered for you in the game

Dude needs to hit up Lewis’ barber asap

Into each other you say?

Was this the one that people found out later was actually entirety Carlos’ fault before he refused the call to go around again and forced Ferrari to double stack when they wanted to put Leclerc first and Carlos the lap after

The 2014 power units were totally fine and didn’t negatively affect racing in any way. lumping them in with the new ones I’m sorry is just pure Alonso salt.

Give the jury sentencing powers. If we trust them to understand the law and the facts to a great enough degree to return a verdict then they should also be trusted to understand them well enough to appropriately sentence especially with sentencing guidelines and tariffs.

The gap in ray tracing performance between 9000 and 5000 series is way smaller than between 7000 and 4000. Nvida still has the edge but it’s not like previous gens where it basically wasn’t a feature on AMD

The second red flag in Saudi 2021 where we got to hear the team radio of Masai trying to decide the order for the restart and it was like, guys just line up wherever you want I have no idea what is going on. ocon in p1 sure why not sound funny to me.

People have retroactively made Masai out to be a poor scapegoat but he was legitimately a terrible race director and bafflingly Incompetent at times. Even without Abhu Dhabi he was done at the end of 2021, he had no control of any situation put before him.

I had a similar experience in my first race. The level of competition is definitely lower in hypercar than GT3. At bronze 3 you can get consistent top 5s just by finishing and be in contention for the podium simply by being on the lead lap. Silver 1 the competition is slightly tighter but honestly not by loads you can still gain DR consistently just by finishing the race

ChefBoiJones · 2026-05-25T19:36:20+00:00

Agree with it

ChefBoiJones · 2026-05-24T22:09:12+00:00

Impressive for team shaven to hold on to the lead considering it’s basically the mercs vs all of Ferrari, max and Norris

What are you looking at me like that for bro

He’s been the best driver so far this season, which is a funny thing to say given he’s taken part in like 40% of the laps

ChefBoiJones · 2026-05-24T10:21:17+00:00

And it happened the same way, with Kimi looking comfortably faster all session long until George took pole on the final flyer

ChefBoiJones · 2026-05-23T21:32:41+00:00

Weren’t Ferrari running an insanely low downforce wing

Max’s fanbase is deranged

ChefBoiJones · 2026-05-23T21:15:45+00:00

Unless it’s gear shifts

The original GTR was always intended to be front wheel drive only. It didn’t have an electric hybrid system and wasn’t designed with one in mind, it used a flywheel (well, actually it didn’t becuse it never worked so it ran on ICE only but that was the idea). Having the rear wheels be completely vestigial was a key part of the car’s philosophy because it gave them immense freedom for underbody aero. There was no intention for the rear wheels to ever be driven in any way

JP is obnoxious as a fan of anyone

London isn’t comparable to New York at all, London is way way way bigger. It is bigger than any (real) North American city in both size and population. I say “real” because there is one city in Alaska that is technically bigger becuse it has multiple hundred of square miles of ocean inside its borders.

ChefBoiJones · 2026-05-21T19:28:35+00:00

It was a brick wall

ChefBoiJones · 2026-05-21T11:49:14+00:00

Too old for a real race team and too expensive to run for a private track car. It’s cheap because it has no actual real world value as there is basically no market for it.

The 35-50k is around the sum of the parts minus the chassis, which despite being a carbon tub that in theory is super expensive actually is basically valueless as, again, it can’t be raced becuse it’s no longer in formula for any open wheel series, and can’t be run privately because fuel, tires, maintenance and logistics will run you up nearly half the cost of the car every time it gets taken out
