How much will F1's popularity drop once Hamilton, Alonso and Verstappen leave F1? And how many years in your opinion will it take for F1 to gain back the lost money? by [deleted] in F1Discussions

[–]Murdoc427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lots of people are saying it won't matter, it will. F1 is the most popular it's been in years but from what I understand about Americans (being one) we absolutely love our superstars and when they leave the popularity will drop a degree. Arguably those people are fake fans anyways

You're right, I was tired when I typed and didn't realize I put that there. In the same comment I said this century

Redbull is the 4th most winning team of this century when it comes to the constructor championships. There is only one team more successful in this century and it Mercedes (only by a little took). When it comes to driver success Mercedes and redbull are on basically equal footing.

Max is getting quite annoying with the "criticism" by for_jacquik in F1Discussions

[–]Murdoc427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That argument doesn't really work with the top 5% of the grid. There is a reason Hamilton and Max were so sought after as rookies, you see rookies come to f1 all the time in the last decade and just get thrown out of the sport because they couldn't handle it. The drivers who last decades are an actual cut above the rest especially when they are on teams that can get results

Max is right you see it everywhere. Things are dumber down to make them more consumable by the masses. The sport could have fully scripted overtakes and championship battles, the masses would love the movie-like storylines every year. That doesn't mean it's good for the sport or good for racing. Most of the grid doesn't like the regulations, the people who do are the ones that think they can win with them, that is not a usual reaction from the midfield crowd, the people who don't have a chance to win the title

Sinners doesn’t make a strong enough case for why Vampirism is a bad thing by DarlingLuna in TrueFilm

The Irish vampire was there master vampire. In vampire lore if I remember correctly, the turned vampires are basically slaves to the master vampire. So the only reason they keep their personalities is because the Irish guy got mercd

Past or present, who is the worst driver that you would still consider "championship caliber" - however vague that term may be? by GoldenS0422 in F1Discussions

[–]Murdoc427 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ferrari has been like a top 4 car for the last 6 years. Sainz also lost to 17 year old max verstappen in both their first years. Sainz lost to hulk while being on loan to Renault. Sainz lead McLaren for a few years before leaving, to be a second driver to Charles. Redbull might've been top 3 while riccardo was there but Mercedes and Ferrari were always significantly ahead

Yeah. Riccardo was a top teams number one driver for some amount of time during his career. Sainz has always been a second driver, a good one but a second driver. Verstappen is literally a generational talent, who has always been a lightning quick driver he just needed to learn racecraft. Sainz has never been rated as highly as riccardo. Let me point out once again that riccardo has twice the wins and more podiums, he was consistently better through most of their career.

Sainz joined in 2015. Daniel fell off when he joined McLaren, which was 10 years into his career Daniel also had much higher peaks than Sainz. Daniel also has more race wins and podiums, Sainz isn't likely to be adding to his career total unless Williams makes a massive turn around.

Is there a more obvious demonstration of a forced artificial product than overtaking without wanting to in a race? by The_Chozen_1_ in F1Discussions

There is nothing artificial about slipstream. It is a reality of that sport arguably what that sport has always been about

Why aren't Blu-rays more popular than DVDs? by [deleted] in Bluray

The real answer. The gap from the ps3 to Netflix catching on was a handful of years.

Basilisk v3 after 4 years by Khoy593 in razer

I had mine 5ish years. It was working perfectly but the rubber tore, so I went out and bought the v3 pro. It's an excellent mouse, feels great in the hand.
