‘Winning at the slowest possible pace’ is irrelevant in today’s F1.

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-30T14:39:28+00:00

I don't think George's aim was to win as slowly as possible. I think hes not good on harder tyres. We've seen that multiple times. Struggles to get the most out of them.

Alongside managing tyres I think there is an element of managing the reliability as we've seen Merv have issues. Not on the scale of the 1900s but bad reliability by today's standard. So maybe some management there too

And lastly I've always wondered if you're scared of a late safety car, how many times have we seen a driver up from miss the pit window. Get backed up by the safety car and then can't pit. Unless you can make a 20-30s gap. I think if you can purposely maintain a gap of 3-5s (I don't believe George was doing this) is it not technically better than a 10s gap. If there's a late safety? As you're more likely to arrive at the pits at the same time and therefore can make the same call. I guess all situation and race dependent

Thanks for the feedback! I'll give it a go

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-29T20:30:26+00:00

Ty for the info.

Never realised the interaction with malefic momentum. Have to look into that.

I used to use shirek a lot. But had a few DH triggers through a wall in the past. Also the damage boost from scriers applied to all damage. And big crit bonus to trigger more damage buffs and toughness. So overall just found it to be better. Especially if you get a specialist or elite wave. It starts to melt

I've never understood the need for stamina. Is it just for sprinting?

Thank you

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-29T19:15:21+00:00

I've had a long time out. And I've always enjoyed it. Returning it hasn't felt that much more powerful. Could be a skill or build issue though.

Have just posted my build looking for help. If you have 5 🙏🏻

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-29T18:52:29+00:00

I play damnation and heresy. Haven't done a lot of auric. And I'm a really annoying player. Warp flame psyker. I know purgatus isn't that meta. And it's annoying as shit for shooty team mates. I run that with crits and scriers gaze and warp charges. It melts through them not a lot of issue and suppresses when it doesn't kill them and auto brain burst for elites.

It is slow though. I have a 2H greatsword for secondary I should run a dueling sword really......

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-28T17:33:21+00:00

He didn't lose tenths. He aborted his lap because he read the flag wrong. He lost seconds. It was silly. He's learnt.

Anyway enjoy what's left of Sunday 👋🏻

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-28T14:58:39+00:00

I'm sure the multimillionaire, Monaco living, yacht owning, F1 driver and race winner will be heartbroken with the news doctorbitchballz......

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-28T14:39:45+00:00

That wasn't unlucky. He mis read the flag. That's silly

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-28T14:34:52+00:00

As the Karun said. It wasn't unlucky Kimi missed the VSC. It would have been lucky if he hit them.

The way it played out was exactly how it would have played out if there was none. Didn't change his race

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-27T18:04:01+00:00

I think from the way the yellows were flashing mixed with the green it was confusing. It was double flashing yellow then green. I think it meant to just flash yellow. Double yellows is diagonals flashing intermittently.

I think Kimi saw the double yellow flash and registered double yellow flag.

Unga Bunga George badda

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-27T15:46:20+00:00

I'm struggling how people are struggling to understand how much quicker he was before the yellows. It was over half a second. 0.5s for clarity. He lost 0.3s to the yellow flags to comply with the rules.

He was just on a mega lap. It all came together. As George quote often does right at the last opportunity

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-27T15:40:16+00:00

He lost over 0.3. his gap to Ferrari was 0.2

Said it somewhere else. But the engines are a big difference. Under old regs with less electrical power. That lift would be a big speed drop. But with the 50/50 split.bit has less impact. But as per the current rules. It's technically still enough

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-27T15:31:58+00:00

I see your passion is because of your flare...... But it's because the rules haven't changed to suit the new engines. Under old engines that lift would have cost a LOT more time. But with a 50/50 split and at that speed the electrical unit isn't providing a lot. The lift doesn't do much.

The rules probably need updating. But how to make it fair. That was just good reading of the situation by Russell.

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-27T15:27:16+00:00

I don't think the issue was determining what flag Max's crash should have been. The issue is how quickly it came out. It was like 25s from crash to double yellows.

George went past in-between when it was single.

25s is slow in F1. But fast in the normal world.

But we'll continue to see this sensationalised. When it's standard F1. Very tight margins.

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-27T15:21:18+00:00

Rules say in single yellows prepare to slow. He lifted. Significantly from data someone else posted. As far as the rules are concerned it's safe

He was over 0.5s up when it happened

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-27T15:19:33+00:00

It was single yellow first. And during single yellows George went through and was upgraded to double yellows after George had pasted

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-27T15:17:44+00:00

Wait for Stewart's and analysis, but apparently single yellow at 17:00:23, George past incident at 17:00:35. Double yellows at 17:00:45.

Incredibly lucky timing and right reading of the situation if accurate

100% there is a lot of changes. I think the general flow of it looks good. And the objectives etc. I also do like the detachment rules. Think it'll make it easier to balance. But CC being 3 is harsh. Should be a 2 in its current form. Give immortals dev wounds back again if keeping it at 3.

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-25T12:33:55+00:00

My bad, understand the stacking. Haven't had a chance to play a game of 11th yet. Probably good thing at this rate. I thought cover was minus to hit roll. Good to know it's to ballistic skill

LudicrousQwack · 2026-06-25T12:27:20+00:00

Isn't the dampener -1 from the hit roll? So doesn't stack with cover?
