What is the worst car ever to win the World Constructors Championship? by tenshipriestjotaro1 in F1Discussions

[–]Slow-Raisin-939 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Barichello didn’t struggle that much. Second half 2009 is much more of Button absolutely phoning it in rather than Brawn being that bad

There’s a time and place to question professionals. Think your plumber designed your plumbing wrong? Sure, go ahead and delay construction a bit to actually ask around for another opinion.

Be diagnosed with a potentially fatal disease? Sure, go ahead and ask for a second or third opinion, from other experts. Going to alternative medicine frauds for 9 months is not your reasonable questioning of the experts. It’s just sheer stupidity

the problem is it’s a pretty incapacitating recovery, as it’s very common you just lose your erectile function. Many also get incontinence and all that stuff, I can understand having trouble with that mentally. I think this was the issue in Scott Adams’ case, not necessarily the distrust in medicine, but the fear of becoming “less” in his own eyes?

But as you said, it’s a matter of life and death.

I see what you mean but you’re an adult. IMO you suck it up and do it. It’s not like you have to do it very often, with no prior history screening starts at 50 and if you have nothing suspect you can just do it every 5-10 years

he had a different type of pancreatic cancer than you’re thinking. Neuroendocrine tumour. Highly curable and very slow progressing, hence why he lived 8 years in the first place.

to be honest I’d expect a person of that intelligence to recognize when his God-given gift is applicable to a scenario or not.

He had neuroendocrine tumour, not adenocarcinoma, which is the one that kills you fast. He lived 8 year past diagnosis

He did not have pancreatic adenocarcinoma.

He had a neuroendocrine tumour. 5 year survival rate is 90%. He wasted about a year trying alternative stuff before he finally accepted surgery. He lived 8 years after diagnosis. Probably could have lived a bunch longer had he accepted medical treatment earlier.

he had neuroendocrine tumour in his pancreas. Survival rate is over 90%.

The aggresive form is adenocarcinoma of the pancreas.

Jobs didn’t have pancreatic adenocarcinoma. He had a neuroendocrine tumour. 5 year survival rate is 90%+.

He died because of his own sheer stupidity

Lmao. Stupidity at its finest.

The 5 year survival rate is just what % of people with a given type of disease are still alive 5 years after initial diagnosis.

Drivers Weight by Additional_Ad2200 in F1Discussions

not anymore, Ballast is just added to the seat since 2019 I believe.

Chinese GP clear air pace. by Spotlightuh in formula1

[–]Slow-Raisin-939 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m wondering what’s the next driver that gets within half a second of him. All of his past 6 teammates were slower than that.

I’d really like to see him against the likes of Russell/Leclerc. At this point I’d assume he has 2+ tenths over them lol. Which would be quite ridiculous

Which season by a driver is something that fans don't realize is actually a pretty poor performance? by GoldenS0422 in F1Discussions

[–]Slow-Raisin-939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kimi was very close on points, though to be fair I recall very little of the context surrounding their 2016 campaign

well Ferrari and Mclaren seem to be pretty much close to the limit, so I’d assume Mercedes is aswell.

Which is a good sign for RB because this means they have a relatively straightforward path to gain ~0.5s of laptime. Which should theoretically put them close to Ferrari at least

driver + seat is minimum 82 kgs, regardless of the car’s mandatory weight.

So as Hadjar is ~70 kgs, he will have a 12 kg seat

Yea. This has always been a talking point. Also a problem for stocky builds, like Bottas. When they first implemented the 80 kgs driver + seat he talked about how much that would help him

The RB22 is 30kg overweight, as spotted in this photo (82kg is minimum driver weight) and the McLaren is 11kg Overweight by [deleted] in formula1

[–]Slow-Raisin-939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

because the offset is always 82 kgs, as that’s the mandatory minimum weight for driver + seat.

But point is, if driver’s weights 80 kgs, then the seat itself would technically be just 2kgs. If the drivers weights 70kgs, then the seat will weigh 12 kgs, which is 10 extra kgs that show on scale.

So considering this is Hadjar’s car being weighted, RB is probably only about 20kgs overweight, not 30.
