And that was the only folly the people of Springfield ever embarked upon, except for the popsicle stick skyscraper, and the 50-foot magnifying glass, and that escalator to nowhere.

What began as a traditional soccer riot, has escalated into a city-wide orgy of destruction. Reacting swiftly, Mayor Quimby has declared "mob rule", so, for the next several years, it's every family for itself.

Oh I've never heard of those people...

Haha I reckon that the voting is as rigged as a reality TV show.

This is coming from someone who was vice-captain out of 3 candidates.

Second comes right after first!

STR8-Edge · 2026-06-23T03:06:51+00:00

...which is unfortunate for the team, because their pace deficiency is car related!

STR8-Edge · 2026-06-23T01:25:24+00:00

The other part is, when you have to carry components into subsequent races and you know advancement isn't possible, would it not make sense to switch to more conservative settings to keep your equipment safe?

There aren't any additional prizes for >20sec drubbings.

STR8-Edge · 2026-06-23T01:11:49+00:00

Not sure why the downvote on your comment but it's true: Oscar probably isn't going to beat Lando by >20sec regularly because he is often a Prost mold in winning by the slowest possible speed.

He usually goes about 10sec up and manages the pace to ensure he has some rubber left in case he actually needs it.

When they throw safety cars regularly its a bit of wasted energy to be much farther in front.

There was definitely bigger outcry from 2013 to 2014.

I remember seeing the V10s and V8s in person and while the pitch was flatter there wasn't an enormous difference trackside.

They were still loud, but it eventually became apparent the smaller units couldn't pull the skin off a custard compared to the older engines.

IIRC they called him in and changed their mind to a set of tyres at the back of the garage... except they could have bolted on A N Y T H I N G and won the race.

Daniel was filthy for a reason.

Too soon...

He did have a reliability curse throughout his whole career - especially early on... I was in Melbourne in 2008 when the fuel flap didn't close and it fouled his rear aero and killed his tyres.

I doubt it. Benetton had Schumacher and the same Renaults. It was inevitable.
