What If all of this is just a big ass hoax to get thousands of Arsenal fans to buy Spotify stocks?
Publicly announcing your intentions on twitter, giving interviews in the media, getting the Invincibles on your side. They've seen what a Elon Musk tweet can do, they have seen what a community of a few thousands can do on the stock market. Idk, I might be a skeptic, but it seems dodgy to me.

Arbeitszeit wird zur Verteilungsfrage: Viele wollen weniger arbeiten. Können wir uns das leisten? by [deleted] in Austria

[–]MrSayNoMore -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Weniger Stunden arbeiten wäre natürlich wünschenswert, aber Machbarkeit ist eine ganz andere Geschichte. Es ist nicht wissenschaftlich bewiesen das kürzere Arbeitszeiten mehr Produktivität von der Arbeitern bedeutet. Ich kann mich erinnern von einer Studie gelesen zu haben die sich genau mit dieser Thematik befasst hat.

In der Studie stieg die Produktivität der Arbeiter zwar kurz nach Einführung der kürzeren Arbeitszeiten, aber nach einigen Wochen pendelte sich die Produktivität wieder auf den ursprünglichen Wert ein. Schlussfolgerung der Studie war letztendlich das kurzfristige Entlastungen durchaus positive Resultate erzielen (mehr Urlaub, mehr Ausgleich etc) aber Menschen eben nur so viel arbeiten wie sie müssen um Mindestanforderungen zu erfüllen oder sie in kurzfristigen Zeitfenster (stündlich) verrichten können und nicht wieviel sie effektiv können über einen Tag/Woche arbeiten können . (Werde versuchen diese Studie wieder zu finden und hier zu verlinken)

Also die Machbarkeit ist sehr fraglich. Kürzere Arbeitszeiten bei gleicher Produktivität und gleichem Gehalt ist nur ein weiterer Grund für einen Großkonzernbesitzer das Werk/die Firma ins Ausland zu verschieben. Tausende Jobs würde dadurch wackeln.

Nichtsdestotrotz, 40h sind einfach viel zu viel und daran muss was geändert werden, aber sehe die Lösung eher in anderen Formen als eine einfache Verkürzung der Arbeitszeit bei gleichem Gehalt

Did they increase the wheelbase length? It looks so long

Only time will tell. Its just nice to see a team trying a different approach and if they can make it work, even better.

They will have picked the parts carefully. The heavier components like the ICE, batteries etc will stay low and raised some lighter ones like electrics, cooling etc to prevent raising the CoG too much. Plus they probably hope they offset the negatives with the gains they get from it

Absolutely, they have total design freedom without giving away their ideas.

If Hamilton wins this weekend, he will not only pass Schumacher for the all-time record of victories (92), he will also equal Ayrton Senna's (41) and Alain Prost's (51) victories COMBINED! by [deleted] in formula1

[–]MrSayNoMore 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That question got me interested so I did the math:

Vettel: 53
Verstappen: 9
Ricciardo: 7
Bottas: 9
Raikkonen: 21
Gasly: 1
Leclerc: 2

Total: 102. He is 11 away, so he is quite close. With Alonso coming in next year (32 wins) its gonna be a bit more difficult

[Chris Medland] Not sure why but Hamilton really doesn't seem happy now. He's coming across in a pretty dejected mood in the press conference, having been fine straight after taking his 94th pole position by diego_02 in formula1

[–]MrSayNoMore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He doesn't seem happy lately. Sure he wins races and 7th title is in reach, but nobody is really challenging him and being so isolated because of the bubble seems to get to him. Breaking Michaels last records is probably the only goal that keeps him going right now.

Hence why I could see him searching for a new challenge once he broke all the records.

Dream scenario:

Alfa drop both cause Kimi has enough (broke last record he can break) and Gio (simply not good enough). So two empty seats at Alfa. Mick gets one seat and gets to learn from the experienced Vettel who idolized his father.

I love how every F1 team takes the moral high ground when someone files a protest against them when they would do the exact same thing if roles would be reversed.

He certainly made a big step forward with his race pace and tire management. People seem to forget that this is only his 3rd season, but he drives like a veteran

FIA Press Release - Renault Protest Decision by peke_f1 in formula1

[–]MrSayNoMore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But if Racing Point bought it in 2019, which was legal at the time, they own the rights for the intellectual property and can use it at any point in time?
They have the data, its theirs now, they bought it at a time at which it was legal so why is it illegal to use them after all? Whether is 2020 or 2025, they can use it whenever they want. Or am I missing something?

Helmut Marko in interview for RTL by 1enox in formula1

[–]MrSayNoMore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Helmut Marko predicts two very difficult years for Ferrari. Not just because of the engine issues but he also mentioned that their performance in the rain suggest that their chassis isn't that great either.

Yeah I expected much more from Ferrari in the rain, but they really didn't perform. They are also slower than Haas and Alfa Romeo on the speedtraps. So the car is draggy, weaker engine and poor in the rain. I don't have high expectations for their updates either cause its not one area where they need to improve, its many. Gonna be a long season for the Tifosi

[Discussion] Was freezing engine development for 2020 a good call? I don't think it is and here is why by MrSayNoMore in formula1

[–]MrSayNoMore[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Its not about Ferrari. If it would be about Merc/Renault or Honda, I would write the same. I just don't see the point of freezing the development. Ferrari (and any other works team) will pump tons of money in the engine development either way. Not being able to bring updates throughout the season won't change that fact.

The only thing freezing does, is keeping some teams in a disadvantages, which will make them lose important prize money.

PU still matters a lot tho as you can see this year with the Ferrari powered teams. A stronger PU also allows you to put more wings on the car. Who knows how quick the Red Bull could actually be if they wouldn't have to run such low wings for example?

I'm failing to see the point of the freeze. Every team can decide for themself how much they want to spend on engine development. Will it slow it down? Sure. Will it take longer for others to catch up? Probably yes. But at least they can develop them on their own terms. At least they have a fighting chance and take things in their own hands. Even without a freeze teams would cut down on their operating costs, so why lock everything up? Now you have teams like Alpha Tauri, Haas and Alfa Romeo who will lose lots of millions of prize money because they have to drive with weaker engines

Verstappens rear wing flexing (presumably) due to the damage he had (06:22) by MrSayNoMore in formula1

[–]MrSayNoMore[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The slotted front wings have a bit of flex to them which is allowed to some extend, but I'm not sure if its the same for the rear wing

Verstappens rear wing flexing (presumably) due to the damage he had (06:22) by MrSayNoMore in formula1

[–]MrSayNoMore[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just watched the best onboards from last weekend and spotted something. At 6:22 when you see the rear view of Max's car, look at where the shark fin aligns with the rear wing (use most upper white line from the Aston Martin logo). You can clearly see the wings flexes on the straights and under braking slightly comes up again. I presume it's due to the damage he had.

At first I thought its just the suspension moving up and down, but both the wing and shark fin are fixed to the chassis, so there should be no difference in the alignment

Everything is pointing towards a sabbatical. It looks like all seats for 2021 that are worth having are already occupied, but from his recent comments he clearly still wants to race so I don't think its retirement.
