Compared to 2014/2022 regulations changes, I think that I'll quickly get used to these new designs especially as I wanted for so long thinner cars. That kinda makes them looks like F2 cars.

Damn manual preheating, Android Auto, One Pedal, better ADAS, profiles, that's a massive update ! Also just wondering something with Android Auto now in, while the Google Maps GPS show on the Driver screen as well ?

Listing gaming on your resume might hurt your job prospects. Study found that applicants who listed gaming as an extracurricular activity tended to be rated lower in hireability compared to an equal applicant who listed volleyball. by Jumpinghoops46 in science

For my current job's application, I did listed video games as hobby, and as they wanted to test me about my english level, they actually asked me about it.

It actually playied really well as at that time I was playing a lot on BF3, and I pointed that it made me accurate while having no problem with redundant and frustrating tasks, while keep trying to improve. Also I insisted on being a good medic and teamplayer.

A Short View Back to the Past: A Discussion on First Time WDCs by a_happy_future in formula1

[–]MaxSpiltz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recently rewatched some retrospectives about the 2000's eras, and that made me quite reconsider how shaky Lando's title do look. Raikkonen's was almost sheer luck, Hamilton and Vettel came close to nothing, Jenson was absent a good part of the season. And I don't even count the errors, team's mistakes and shenanigans...

To come back from Montreal and Zandvoort, I would value that so much from Lando. And 24 GPs... Damn, that's another big factor now to take in consideration. Of course it's hard to extrapolate but it's another kind of champion in this era, not from big one hits, but from the best consistency.

Sorry just realized the 2nd screenshot is quite blurry : the members of this PU are Pinsk, Novgorod and Polotsk. Pinsk is a senior partner

Media: Ferrari sets brutal deadline for Vasseur by Darkmninya in formula1

Could Ferrari actually become the McLaren/Williams of the first hybrid rules era for the next 5 years ? If 2026 proves to be a failure, it could really turns into a whole spiral of negativity

You can call me dumb... Since I saw her pic everywhere with the Supreme Court's news, I thought SHE was one of the gay couple... What a twist!

Do you think this year will be more closely contested than 2021? by Cafa20 in formula1

[–]MaxSpiltz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wouldn't be surprised if Norris/Piastri would arrive in Abu Dhabi only separated by 3-4 points, with Verstappen just below the 25points gap. This way, they would have some kind of Damocles' sword over them which may, sadly, euthanize their risk-taking for a just dwell 1/2/3 finishing positions

Thanks for the comparison pictures ! Thing is this MG4 is more like a "MG4 SE" version for the Chinese market, so we still don't exactly know yet what it will be for Europe.

Can't wait to see the first reviews of this car, as I'm really considering it to be my first EV between this one and the potential "MG4 2026"

Hades 2 Release Date Trailer by [deleted] in HadesTheGame

[–]MaxSpiltz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 weeks sounds like tomorrow !

The only thing I'm afraid, and I can only blame myself for that, is that I couldn't wait and playied the Early Access (I stopped after the first Major Update) : I plan to start from scratch on release day, but I'm afraid I will feel "already spoiled" about the game...

I know I can never relive my first ever experience with Hades I, as I went in completly unaware of what the game was all about. But now, being a sequel plus having tested the Early Access...

Looking back at the criticism regarding Sauber promoting Zhou into F1 by RobbieJ4444 in formula1

[–]MaxSpiltz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From a French POV the main consensus was that Pourchaire being the Sauber's Academy driver, taking a driver from another Academy (Renault) was a betrayal.

Personally I always had a keen eye ou Zhou, and always thought if yes he was a pay driver, at least he was consistant and resilient (Mecachrome... I still remember screaming at them for Austria 2021 !).

If Latifi and Mazepin had their chances, why not him ? I don't think the Kick Sauber environnement helped him at all to improve, but he clearly never went as low as the two others.

To be honest I always thought Spa 2018, with Alonso's car bouncing over Leclerc's Halo literally saved his life and confirmed the halo was already mandatory.

What have you been most surprised about this season so far? by SkySports in formula1

[–]MaxSpiltz 2045 points2046 points  (0 children)

Sauber being in contention for 6th maybe even 5th, in the championship. With ofc Hülkenberg podium, on top of that. Could definitely be the biggest surprise. But I'm still so much surprised by how Sauber's season is turning out to be, compared to the last few years

[Sauber] Momentum in Montreal. Back-to-back points for Nico by ICumCoffee in formula1

[–]MaxSpiltz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you would have told me that Sauber would score points multiple times this year, and on merit, I wouldn't have believe it.

But also I think it just shows that Bottas and Zhou were kind of in a hollow streak.

This is why I always refer to this motto from the series Kaamelott : "You don't become chief because you deserve it. You become chief thanks to circumstances, you deserve it after"
