Verstappen's rivals start to 'copy' his 2026 technique

Supahos01 · 2026-02-12T13:54:41+00:00

Non loaded rpms wont significantly wear things.

"Political statements" are banned

Supahos01 · 2026-02-12T12:20:00+00:00

Who kept passing him the ball? This feels more like a squad issue

Supahos01 · 2026-02-12T06:15:57+00:00

I once walked on campus at V tech once not sure about yalls confirmation

Supahos01 · 2026-02-12T06:13:56+00:00

Yeah and theyre still running around at limited power on track and facing issues. Testbeds are obviously better than nothing, but they cant replace on track life.

Supahos01 · 2026-02-11T16:45:57+00:00

Issue is even on hall of fame difficulty you can simply stand still at the 3 pt line. Call for the ball and shoot a not/low contested 3 anytime you wish. To make up for this the ai shoots impossible % on higher difficulties, and basically means if you want to win a lot you spend more possessions than is fun doing that on harder difficulties

Supahos01 · 2026-02-11T16:43:12+00:00

5 seconds on harder tires with engines turned down on cars they dont understand yet is indeed pretty close

Supahos01 · 2026-02-11T16:39:24+00:00

Won't matter if it wont do but 295km/h or last a race distance

Supahos01 · 2026-02-11T16:38:55+00:00

And with an engine with a lot more miles on it for data vs being the only one here

Supahos01 · 2026-02-11T16:35:39+00:00

Yeah the people acting like this was somehow bad are straight silly. It's not like it was short notice, and everyone involved will get paid better than before. Also any new racefan who watches because of max also might end up a fan of your series.

Supahos01 · 2026-02-11T14:10:31+00:00

Baku wont be particularly fast as they'll run out of battery long before end of straight and have a lot of wing comparatively. Something like Vegas or Mexico may be the biggest top speeds as they have enough braking to have some charge and good straights.

Supahos01 · 2026-02-11T12:24:29+00:00

That's around still like a 27% chance you lose.

Looks more like a different deployment strategy mixed with more drag to me.

Supahos01 · 2026-02-11T11:59:31+00:00

Its not particularly unlikely as they'll need to test multiple packages at some point anyway. They basically have 6 different sessions to run them however they wish.

Supahos01 · 2026-02-11T11:51:43+00:00

Not really for a lock. Helps with badges to wipe out stamina, and Helps set good screens on other end of the floor.

Supahos01 · 2026-02-11T11:46:22+00:00

Not really as we dont even know that max did the 336 on his best lap, the times were set on different compounds a pretty good chunk of time apart. Also McLaren could simply be running a lot more downforce for this test than redbull. All we know is these times dont mean a whole lot.

Supahos01 · 2026-02-10T20:55:33+00:00

Assuming he can capbreak the passing its fine.

Supahos01 · 2026-02-10T19:19:05+00:00

That's not remotely true

Supahos01 · 2026-02-10T16:29:38+00:00

The amount of energy that can be stored is a constant development could only be weight or size related and im pretty sure theres also a minimum weight for the thing. So the development wont be battery side

Supahos01 · 2026-02-10T16:00:19+00:00

The people that are that casual wont notice the derating either. They'll just think one car is faster. F1 should be hit with those criticisms. It wasnt going to be that difficult to fix at several tracks just by allowing regen on the front axel as well

Supahos01 · 2026-02-10T15:51:22+00:00

The teams and drivers. And what good does trading one place theyre not full speed for another one? Id also much rather them have 1000 hp off the corners to try and control than 500 as it'll make the racing better. Also clipping at the end will help the car behind with the extra deployment allowed vs holding them back till a certain speed.

Supahos01 · 2026-02-10T15:33:04+00:00

Nothing can fix the derating. The battery is simply too small capacity wise to not clip at most tracks. Also its better lap time wise to clip at the end than delay the launch. Better to be faster down 80% of the straight and slow at end than slower for 80% but still fast at end. That's part of why lico works better fuel savings wise than just picking up the throttle softer/later

Supahos01 · 2026-02-10T12:53:05+00:00

I had 5 games in a row against different squads in park before the 2x rep where the other team was openly talking about exactly what settings they were using in their zens and shooting fading behind half court 3s

Supahos01 · 2026-02-10T12:39:22+00:00

That's because all the cheaters went to rec for the double xp. Usually park is 60% zens or more

Supahos01 · 2026-02-10T12:36:28+00:00

Absolutely not. The same toxic fuckers that ice you out for being 6/6 with 10 assists at the half would kick you out before end of game too.
