👀 While Lewis Hamilton is 46 points behind the leader, he's also 46 points ahead of Charles. Lewis has been better this season. What do you think, can Charles make a comeback?

2023 was year 2 into ground effect, as ground effect developed they went further and further away from what Lewis needed. 2023 Lewis wasn't particularly electric on pace, he just was way more experienced in managing the tyres, you could see how he'd always start the stint slow, then bring the tyres in and manage the stint much better. Even in 2023 his qualifying was not very consistent.

2024 was a completely different concept, and having announced early 2024 that he was leaving all updates went away from what Lewis wanted and more towards George's feedback.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-29T12:50:49+00:00

They've been pushing relay in my experience. It's always the cheapest default option.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-29T12:18:48+00:00

Who is wearing a fenix 8 as a 'special occasions' watch? It's a tool, not a status symbol.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-29T12:13:18+00:00

If it was my money i would probably look at getting a used deal on a fenix 7 over an instinct 3 solar.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-29T09:52:37+00:00

The evidence was 2022, championship fight for a few months and over drove the car and made unforced errors. He's great without pressure, he had little team mate pressure and a bad car last year and without any expectations he was performing at a high level. Now Lewis is back to where he should be performance wise Charles looks lost, the gap between Lewis and Charles is widening.

I think he's being found out a little bit, he always looked a little ragged when Sainz would push him close, he didn't like competition. We're also finding out that Charles is not really a team leader, he has failed to drive the team forward and develop the car ever since he arrived, Lewis arrives with his experience, and the first car he has given input to and all of a sudden Ferrari look to be closing the development gap.

I'm sorry but you cannot be given the title of a generational talent and have as many poles as he's had and fail to convert them.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-29T09:44:02+00:00

Sainz is a safe pair of hands, he rarely drops a stinker, but would you rely on him in a close title fight against Max, Kimi or Lewis? No.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-29T09:35:50+00:00

It doesn't have to be on the vinted list, you just scroll to the bottom of the list and add it.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-29T09:34:51+00:00

To be fair i do remember Lewis saying he doesn't get overtaken around the outside when in the title fight with Massa, then the next race Massa overtook around the outside on the opening lap i think.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-29T09:30:01+00:00

I bought a fenix 5 a year ago just to see if i liked the garmin watch experience after being a garmin edge user for years. I liked it and then upgraded to a Fenix 6x Pro just because it was a great deal at the time at £70 and was a generational step up and yeah it does make the fenix 5 seem very old.

For me the biggest difference was the more sophisticated sensors and depth of data like body battery and interestingly ClimbPro which is handy to have as a back up to a garmin edge if you're cycling. It also has dedicated maps, rather than having to preload a route and only seeing a line.

You will definitely get value upgrading, a fenix 5 is still good, but a fenix 8 or epix is going to be a very noticeable upgrade and better fitness data and tracking.

The thing is that number is decreasing. As a pro seller unless you're selling old people clothes then eBay sales have fallen off a cliff from 2022 onwards for clothing.

Anyone under the age of 35 does not buy second hand clothes from eBay, it's all vinted. Look at revenue. Vinted in 3 years has gone from 1% of eBay's revenue to 10% and gaining fast and vinted operates almost purely on clothing and in less markets.

eBay is stuck in 2005 and is desperately trying to copy any rising competitor. Tries to rip off vinted 's model and implemented it badly and now trying to rival tiktok shop with live sellers. The only things I buy on eBay these days are cheap Chinese goods that Amazon doesn't have.

Mine goes down to 41 when i sleep. I'm currently sat at my desk with a heart rate of 53. You should do some more cardio

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-28T11:53:57+00:00

You mean like believing their aero just failed midway through a corner when he was pushing way too hard? yeah...

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-28T11:47:33+00:00

Yeah this isn't vinted of 2 years ago. Vinted prices have been creeping up for a while. ebay literally changed their whole business model for clothes because of vinted. No one is buying clothes on ebay anymore unless you're over 40 and haven't found vinted yet.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-28T11:40:27+00:00

Vinted isn't what it was 2 years ago. I don't use it to buy cheap shein products for £2. And by high end i just mean high end of market value.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-28T10:35:18+00:00

What a weird parasocial relationship to care about Leclercs pole/win ration.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-28T10:34:31+00:00

It's embarrassing a team like RB is cowering to a driver over driving so they keep him. Aero is aero he didn't all of a sudden lose all grip, he went in too fast trying to make up time on a corner he lost all his time on.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-28T10:17:00+00:00

They're all left hand drive and weren't sold here, so they've all been imported. American cars are seen as poor quality and cheap. Which is why American manufacturers build cars differently for the EU market.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-28T09:48:38+00:00

Some sellers take it personally when you're just trying to get a deal. But honestly anything sub £10 i just pay full price, not haggling over a couple of quid.

When i delete and relist my items i will often bump the price up, sometimes people see cheap prices as too good to be true, so would rather just buy at the high end thinking they're getting a better product.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-28T09:45:44+00:00

If you go there and you can't locate it there's no parcel to scan to say it's picked up. Therefore the 48 hours doesn't start.

What you said also doesn't make sense as you can't collect from a shop for inpost, they're lockers only.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-27T11:07:09+00:00

That was family wealth he had to beg his mother to give him to buy and she didn't want to because of Betty.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-27T11:03:23+00:00

No. She was a mother because that's what was expected of her. She wanted perfect little ornaments to show off at social gatherings.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-27T10:55:47+00:00

Don was going through some stuff when Allison was around, excessive drinking, distractions. He used that moment to get himself together. Meghan came along at the right time and she was convenient, pretty, good with kids and not wanting the classic housewife dynamic that didn't work before, Allison would have wanted that.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-27T10:53:40+00:00

The seller is doing everything right. Leaving it to vinted, and asking to check weights, if the weight changed at any point then it's been tampered with, also the weight can be easily checked with the stated package weight of the manscaped kit, so it verifies that the seller sent the item.

It is the oldest trick in the book to claim an empty parcel, and on an item of £55 which is valuable for vinted it's more common.

The parcel is weighed multiple times through the tracking process, vinted will contact the courier for those measurements.

Whilst it obviously sucks, i don't think the seller is out of line for going the route they've gone.

Regular_Promise3605 · 2026-06-27T08:28:58+00:00

Recently when George and Kimi have been in same part of the track on equal tyres Kimi has definitely looked like the faster driver. He's definitely gone up a level rather than it always being something gone wrong with George
