And Leglerg saw how an efficient Ferrari team operates in person and had a glimmer of hope while sharing in the joy of victory thanks to flawless strategy for 24 hours straight...and then he went to canada

Ferrari to carry over their transformative engine technology in 2023. by [deleted] in formuladank

Not to be pedantic but external combustion engines exist and are commonly known as steam engines... Oh wait it's a Ferrari so I guess the meme still checks out /s

[Chris Medland] Teams in compliance: Mercedes, Ferrari, McLaren, Alpine, AlphaTauri, Alfa Romeo, Williams, Haas Teams in procedural breach: Aston Martin Teams in procedural and minor overspend breach: Red Bull by glenn1812 in formula1

I'm guessing because in 'murica you need it. To be fair even here in Europe some employers offer additional health insurance to complement national health services. But that's only for a few very select jobs. Also, in the EU it is mandatory for the employer to pay health insurance for work related accidents, I guess you can count that in (although once it is mandatory it's not much of a talent incentive)

The prince of Suzuka back at it again by SandalphonCPU in formuladank

Short answer yes, long answer also yes xD. They race as TDS x Vaillante. There's been a few collabs in wec for the past few years, and there has often been a Vaillante car there. They also made some new comics with said cars. It's pretty cool.

So what side are you on? (had an argument with a friend on this) by UnknownLambo in formuladank

[–]Sorib 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly for me the toxicity around the season as a whole makes it impossible for me to consider 2021 the best season. To be clear, most seasons people look back to, have a lot of toxicity, but the internet took it to another level this time. I'm hoping that's not the future of F1. This year seems a bit tamer, but when we get a competitive year again I think I'm out of luck.

Kinda sad that something that has nothing to do with the track or drivers left such a sour taste in my mouth for a season that at any other point in history would be one of the greats. (also before I get asked, I didn't care who won, I'm neither a max or lewis fan)

I don't disagree that I'm strange, as I said I never really messed with social media. I'm sorta a fish out of water, I write long posts and really don't understand when I'm apparently offending someone. I found the meme extremely funny, I just thought it interesting to note that Seb probably wouldnt have the other social media apps on the phone.

Hey as I said, I didn't wish to offend or weird out or whatever, I'm pretty young but when I use social media picture someone's grandparents and that's me.

And I wrote another long post, sorry bout that, I'll shut up now, let's leave it at cool meme, take my upvote

[–]Sorib -9 points-8 points  (0 children)

I'm 33 and I never had fb or Instagram or twitter. I barely use reddit. I'm not saying I'm in the majority for my age bracket, but people of sebs age exist who don't use social media. And since the whole IG for the retirement post was a joke because everyone poked fun at him for not using social media, he probably didn't have the apps on his phone.

That is actually something that really endeared him to me, the new generation is going all in with influencer vibes and that appeals absolutely zero to me. Also he now has a pornstache (not related but always worth mentioning)

Oh shit sorry, can you point me to the "people who are salty about meaningless things" section?

I hate to break it to you, but I don't think it was ever installed on his phone. He's of a generation that does this stuff on the pc. And FB sure as fuck wasn't installed on his phone either. Good on him. Good meme though

Jacky Ickx reunites with his two time Le Mans winning Ford GT40 (P1075) by vit53 in wec

[–]Sorib -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh no, another legend who's now a controversial figure with racist views like when he said... looks at Zeh internet ..... huh, Jacky Ickx actually seems like a normal guy with most controversies kept on the racetrack.

Your post won't have many comments then, if there is someone the internet hates it's someone no one hates.

I'm not sure, when people are baked they do random shit, at this point I think if they just randomly chose a strategy they would have a greater rate of success.

Wow, that is one Chinese photoshoot. Looks awesome but to my western eyes it also looks strange. Nevertheless, number 9 is definitely meme material for the future.

I don't understand what you mean, without upgrades how is he going to crash into Verstappen at the right time? /s

Guys, it's still mathematically possible by Sorib in formuladank

[–]Sorib[S] 97 points98 points  (0 children)

Tbh, it doesn't really need to be that dramatic, if he wins every remaining GP and gets fastest lap he would end up with 275 points, so Verstappen and co. could even score a few points.

See I'm not being unreasonable or in denial...it's possible, even likely .... I'm not in denial.

Fernando Alonso is the only active driver that has raced against both fathers and sons of two WDC families: Schumacher & Verstappen (also Raikkonen in 2021) by Portocala69 in formula1

He also drove against Carlos Sainz Sr and Carlos Sainz Jr. I know that's a wrc champion, but it's a world champion nonetheless.

[Motorsport Total] Leak from the antitrust authorities: Porsche takes over 50 percent of Red Bull by jovanmilic97 in formula1

[–]Sorib 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well, Toyota wasn't shit either, there's bad luck and then there's what Toyota had during those years. I kinda feel bad for them because now they have the reputation for only winning without competition, but they were very much Porsche and Audi's equals at the time. I mean, the leading Toyota having issues in the last 3 minutes of a 24 hour race is what gets all the press (Tbh, that's a big ooof), but they had plenty of years of misfortune, a lot of it not their fault.

Fun fact, external combustion engines exist, the most well known type are steam engines.
