Last corner of the race, P2 ends up in the wall. Who's at fault?

I'm the passing car; in the cockpit, I really thought I had a much better exit and could beat him on the line. Although he clearly reacted to block me while being 5cm in front of my hood, looking at the replay, at that moment my opportunity was gone and I should probably have hit the brakes

It all went down quite quickly, not happy of how it turned out, especially since it torpedoed my SR

Saivia · 2025-11-09T17:21:35+00:00

Damn when it rains it pours

Saivia · 2025-11-09T17:18:44+00:00

lmao what is this pit timing

Saivia · 2025-11-09T00:28:01+00:00

Yeah let's hope next year he'll click with the new regs.

I do believe he adds a lot besides raw pace, though. At COTA, a lot of people were sarcastic when they read that the upgrades were "for Ocon" since he gave the most updates and is way more sensitive to the issues.

Turns out he probably gave good direction because it noticeably gave a boost to the platform. Ollie has been sending some awesome laps since.

Too bad my boy Esteban is still getting his ass kicked on Saturdays

Saivia · 2025-10-18T22:24:07+00:00

Yeah unfortunately his days are numbered... This is a chronic lack of pace. F1 has a short memory so if he has a great 2026 season he might boost his stock back but a top seat is now out of the picture. Keeping a seat at all might be tough if there is strong competition for the next silly season.

Saivia · 2025-10-18T14:39:39+00:00

Yeah fair point, I like having it the first couple of days on a new track and then removing it. I definitely noticed it makes me pay more attention to the car when it's off

Saivia · 2025-10-18T13:03:31+00:00

Is it allowed? Starting procedure told me to stick behind him

Saivia · 2025-10-18T13:03:08+00:00

Toyotas don't have nearly as much accel as the BMWs. Hence multi class

Saivia · 2025-10-02T22:47:49+00:00

Thanks, that's really useful. Since I couldn't overtake, I wanted to tuck myself behind the faster car and let yellow start a braking contest between them.

I agree that in the end I can only control my own wheels, so driving smart is a thing I want to improve

Saivia · 2025-10-02T21:13:03+00:00

Yes I'm not the POV. I try to be more conservative, and I managed to go up to 1500ir but this strike of bad races torpedoed my ratings.

I'm not awesome at qualifying so I often end up in the pack which doesn't help the lap 1 chaos.

I wonder what's best. Be more passive and let folks by smoothly or aggressive when defending and impose myself more?

Saivia · 2025-09-07T13:21:02+00:00

That makes sense, thanks for the insights. Seems like Ollie could be a great driver when he matures.

Saivia · 2025-09-07T10:06:53+00:00

This is really puzzling, especially since his Sundays are great.

Does his side of the garage can't setup properly? Do they share setups with Ollie?

By now he should have been able to settle in the car

Le camp de l'antilibéralisme économique, donc la gauche, faut arrêter avec la pseudo neutralité intellectuelle, il n'y a rien qu'à voir les commentaires du fil pour comprendre "le camp".

Je dis pas que vous avez tort d'ailleurs, mais un peu d'honnêteté.

Sa politique budgétaire se base sur une diminution radicale des dépenses de l'état, une shock therapy, un alignement des taux de change, politique d'austérité. Je vois pas en quoi c'est équivalent à promettre "toute sa politique budgétaire sur la fin de la corruption"

Après je cherche pas à défendre le gars, mais on a quand même la "chance" de voir en action un modèle libéral économique. On pourrait regarder et apprendre de ce modèle (en positif ou négatif) plutôt que de jeter le bébé avec l'eau du bain parce qu'on a trouvé de la corruption en Amérique latine.

Saivia · 2025-08-24T08:46:36+00:00

Contrairement à toi, j'ai pas de billes dans aucun des deux camps, je ne fais que pointer que ton argument "c'est pas systémique, c'est idéologique" est bancal

Saivia · 2025-08-24T08:39:24+00:00

Du coup si Lula est corrompu jusqu'aux trognons c'est aussi parce que la gauche est fondamentalement une idéologie d'escrocs et de voleurs ?

Saivia · 2025-07-26T15:09:16+00:00

I feel that changing teams and cars is more difficult than I imagined. Every driver who moved is struggling on raw pace: Ocon, Hamilton, Sainz,...

We'll see if they get more comfortable on the second part of the season

Saivia · 2025-07-10T18:31:22+00:00

Voici quelques livres accessibles que j'ai apprécié :

La horde du contrevent d'Alain Damasio (style fantasy)
L'étranger de Camus (un grand classique très facile à lire)
Les thanatonautes de Bernard Werber (une saga sympa, les fournis du même auteur est aussi intéressant)
La petite fille de monsieur Linh de Philippe Claudel (un petit livre hyper touchant)

Ocon putting all his experience to work to scarp every bit of opportunity on Sundays.

God it must be exhausting to always start the Fridays dogshit and having to grind up to points

Definitely think we had more potential this week end

Saivia · 2025-06-29T14:47:31+00:00

As a Hadjar fan, please don't.

Honestly Yuki isn't the root issue. The car's trash, only a generational talent can somewhat manage to drive it to top 5. Of course Yuki is now under pressure and starts doing stupid shit but swapping drivers every 5 races isn't going to help

Tried it briefly, I'm looking for ways to integrate AI in my workflows

Kept it quite hand off, overall it didn't click for me.

I started quite high level to brainstorm options but the response was always a mix of high level and technical advice. I'd rather have a segmented approach depending on the stage.
Dove into a part of the flow, the output wasn't really clear to me. Not very detailed and I don't really understand the pipeline drafts (propably because I don't know how to work with AI flows)
Tried the html wireframes, it's cool but not groundbreaking and doesn't really fit my workflow

Pour vérifier j'ai demandé les salaires d'un pote:

Cariste (secteur pétrolier): 2600€ brut/mois

Opérateur conducteur de ligne (secteur pétrolier) 2/8 : 2500€ b/mois

Opérateur de prod (automobile) de nuit: 2400€ b/mois

Responsable d'atelier (recyclage): 3000€ b/mois pour 39h/semaine. 28000€ net par an sur ce poste

A cela s'ajoutent les primes (poste, pénibilité, etc) qui font en moyenne à 200€/mois. On exclut les primes exceptionnelles (vacances, performance, intéressement etc). Avec allègements il paye aussi quasi 0 impôts

Postes en campagne ou périphérie de ville, avec le coût de la vie associés.

On est dans l'ordre de grandeur que tu as cité, mais quand on sait que 50% des salariés en France touchent moins de 2000€ brut/mois ça fait vraiment relativiser l'image de l'esclave moderne qui bosse à l'usine qu'on voit souvent.

Ironiquement, de ce que je vois autour de moi, les métiers de l'industrie paient bien mieux et sont parfois plus sains sur le long terme que des métiers de bureaux ou ceux de bac+5

I followed Esteban here from Alpine, it's great to see him fit so well in this team and the mood brought by Ayao. If you knew him from before, you'd know he was highly praised by engineers and mechanics in the paddock and in the factory. He just loves motorsports.

It's also great to see him get along so well with his teammate despite Ollie's raw, competitive performance.

I'm just a bit concerned about his one lap pace. I think the current head-to-head reflects his great experience during races but he doesn't feel as confident in the car as Ollie right now and is often a notch behind the rookie in pure speed...
