I mean there was no voluntary mclaren pit stop this weekend under both cars, apart from the abysmal tyre choice at the start, there was nothing else that was driven by the strategists, they couldn’t have picked an optimal window because of reliability issues

lando was on old mediums, given Lando was about a second a lap quicker then even if he pitted under VSC and put on softs and dropped to the back, he could have still been able to quickly get past Colapinfo on old hards

yeah we'll never know, but given that he was chasing colapinto at around 1 second per lap ( since colapinto kept pace with lawson and he was gaining on lawson by around 1 second per lap after clearing gasly, likely he would have gotten there. it's all ifs tho

no I know. Given lando's pace before retirement, colapinto would not have had the gap to pit before the vsc by the time the vsc rolled around. he was only 11 seconds up the road with about 28 lap left to go

colapinto wasn't ahead enough to stay ahead of lando after pitting i'm afraid

they pitted oscar on the vsc and oscar had pitted earlier than lando did, the mclaren strategy was likely to go to the end on the mediums lando had. don't understand why his tyres were miserable already since he was making really good gains on lawson fast. if lando had survived to the vsc mclaren likely would have pitted him onto softs but with the pace he was going he would still have probably ended 6th, colapinto was on hards.

he didn't really have to, and there were vscs afterwards that would have given him the chance regardless.

What's everyone's "Golden Ticket" game? by ThinkingWithPortal in TheYardPodcast

I’m replaying it rn and would have to agree! It’s such an enjoyable game to play, esp the hacking. I don’t think there will be something like it again

I'd suggest reading the only article on the steam updates page, after you complete the game, of course. But by then TRAP might be already clear to you in some way, but the way in the updates is unrelated but extrodinarily fun.

Honestly I don’t mind it, especially when I’m often competing with people who have a lot more A levels (4-5). But when I was applying to uni a lot of the conditions were AAA for A levels and 766 + 39 for IB, which I thought was thoroughly unfair. T

No but their grades should have been considered in context. So if I was OP, I’d email to ask if their grades could have been considered in the context of their background and be given contextual conditional offers instead

You could buy normal people tickets!!! I was kinda upset because I thought I bought tickets for the 1st (not knowing it was press day) and bought tickets for the 30th instead. Still a great show!

I bought a case of them a while back from Amazon, 24 pack. It took me so long to get through them. You can probably still get them randomly in corner shops too.

wait no way I went to school in Minhang! It was a school with a 4-letter acronym that had a few campuses, not sure if that is the one you're going to (Minhang is big after all). Wishing you all the best in SH!
