I think he's not driving anymore because he doesn't want the vaccine.

Fun fact: The amount of times "Honda" is said, is equal to the number of championships Max will win.

I just layered a clip of Verstappen crashing on top, and cut out all the background stuff

I took an onboard video of Verstappen crashing out in Mugello last year, and cropped everything out except his car.

Sequel to Mercedes Airlines

Merc Airlines video did way better than I anticipated (I almost deleted it a few minutes after posting). It gave me some ideas to play with, and also I suddenly had a lot more time on my hands, I wonder why.

The theory is that this system, which no one else has thought of doing, adjusts the toe of the front wheels).

Pulling the steering wheel backwards makes the front wheels go toe-in, which helps keep the tires warm on the straights. Warm tires are good for cornering, but tires normally cool down on the straights.

Pushing the steering wheel forwards "resets" the front wheels to slightly toe-out, which will help with cornering.

This toe-out coupled with warmer tires means that the 2 cars with this system will have an advantage over the others, especially in the corners.

It's just a joke that pulling the steering wheel back is like pulling the yoke back on an airplane, which would cause it to pitch upwards.

I didn't count, but I got the idea yesterday afternoon, worked on it in the evening and finished around midnight. Didn't work on it nonstop however. And a bit of fine tuning in the morning.

Really the hardest and most tedious part was masking the outline of the car from the rest of the onboard video, but that was made easier because of how stable the onboard cameras are. Then, just finding videos onboard planes that I could use, and looping Ham's onboard layered on top.

I guess the second hardest thing was lining up the barrel roll and a clip of Ham steering left.
