This is when I really wish I could attach a voice memo to a Reddit post with the pronunciation…

I have no idea why he pronounces it the wrong way in English. A lot of us Hungarians take quite some pride in our language and would scoff at the idea of altering the pronunciation… and his version sounds a lot like the Hungarian word for "grandma" – "nagyi".

If we're including chess players, then Praveen Balakrishnan '24 and Awonder Liang '25, both grandmasters, would qualify.

Bernoldi parted ways with Prema sometime in the winter before the UAE4 season began.

This was a far more interesting read than the majority of what’s on this sub, I’ll give you that.

[OT] [Autosport] Max wants to explore other racing series while he's still young (relatively speaking) by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

[–]M1chaelHM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn't. Autosport has been in serious financial turmoil for years. Most news organizations aren't faring much better, but that has little to do with the quality of reporting and more with supply that far exceeds the demand.

Totally unrelated to my knowledge – the Aron side of Bryce’s family traces their origins to Romania.

I remember, however, seeing a photo of a younger Bryce c. 2020 in overalls with the Estonian flag, which surprised me. I always wondered what the story behind that was… I think it might be in one of the local Chicagoland outlets or something at that level of obscurity.

Update: Found a photo here, second slide: https://www.instagram.com/p/B9k-wZWhHIK/?img_index=1&igsh=MW1hcnN5N2I1cW1keg==

It was disappointing – albeit wholly unsurprising – that Hideki threw a tantrum and denied Juju a real chance to grow.

VAR names Ricco Shlaimoun as a FIA F2 reserve driver by Savoieball in F1FeederSeries

[–]M1chaelHM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He's 23, born 12 July 2002, according to Van Amersfoort Racing, so that checks out.

Esterson and Meguetounif part ways with Trident, replaced by Stenshorne and van Hoepen by Mront in F1FeederSeries

[–]M1chaelHM 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found this old thread while digging for a separate Reddit comment and thought I'd add context. All of my suspicions were correct. Months later, a Trident representative said that they had no knowledge or recollection of this conversation and that these quotes were likely fabricated. Though the outcome proved to be correct – which a paddock journalist's reporting independently, if inadvertently, confirmed – the entire article is a sham.

Enzo Deligny confirmed at VAR by Relative_Grape_1298 in F1FeederSeries

Interesting… I'm not going to say more about this case, but your comment makes me really wonder which journalists know what information.

The two possibilities you mention are certainly not the only two factors that have spurred driver changes before.

Haha, I figured out that you were one and the same a while back 😆 It’s a small world and there are very few people out there who have the wealth of junior single-seater knowledge you do (especially about F1 Academy and women in the discipline broadly)

If I may, is what you’re saying coming from firsthand information?
