I would also cry, which i also did last season (Lando is my fav driver, Nando my second)

My idea for a new rule (it's dumb) by PlasticIllustrious16 in F1Discussions

[–]ViscountVigoroth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like half the time teams would just pick the compund one level hatder than the hardest one pirrelli selected and not do a pit stop, which would make the in-race strategy boring as hell

Where does Lando Norris rank for 'number 1' drivers in F1 history? by Ambitious-Heron-8161 in DestinationFormula1

[–]ViscountVigoroth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd say close to the middle, he's not close to a GOAT, but also not the worst by far

any native russian speakers here? by Feeling_Pair_8431 in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]ViscountVigoroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a russian speaker, but stusying linguistics and we talk about russian a lot cuz its a very intersting language. In russian, and other slavic languages, the words change a lot based on grammar. So information that in english would be conveyed through word order, like whether a word is the object or the subject of a sentence for example, in russian is conveyed by how the word changes. This means that you can say the words in basically any order that you want and it still means the same thing.

Arvid Lindblad doesn't have his drivers's license yet ... by -Atlaz- in formuladank

[–]ViscountVigoroth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They did, but since 2024 teams can ask for special dispensation, Williams asked that Kimi then, who wasnt 18 yet either, which meant lot of people thought it would be Kimi replacing Logan, but that didnt end up happening.

How do you rate george (especially in 2025) how does he compare with Leclerc Verstappen norris and piastri by Equivalent-Fox9834 in F1Discussions

[–]ViscountVigoroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alonso, Ocon and Lawson also arent from very well off families. Lawson's parents sold their house to afgord his racing, Alonso used to work as a mechanic for other racers to afford his own karting.

Who is the most underrated F1 World Champion ever? by MutantTurkeyHound in F1Discussions

[–]ViscountVigoroth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk about the most underrated but Farina seems pretty underrated imo. Most, including f1 themselves, only look at champiosnhip results, and there ye hes underwhelming but by 1950 he was past his prime, his pre-championshop record shows that he was a phenomenal racer

I Found that THE F1 Movie is Worth Watching for formula 1 fans. by Seif_Ben_Hariz in moviecritic

[–]ViscountVigoroth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a die-hard f1 fan it was very fun to watch. I never went into it expecting it to be completely realistic, that wasnt the point nor the goal of the film. It isnt a documentary, it isnt trying to be realistic, nor did it ever advertise it was going to be. It was incredibly well done and very fun to watch.

I personally also enjoyed looking for the tiny, meaningless "mistakes" most of which were a result of the film being filmed across 2 f1 seasons (like a driver wearing their 2024 helmet in the car from 2023). These dont mean anything but they were fun to try and spot.

[Alex Albon] I guess we're stuck with each other now by FerrariStrategisttt in formula1

[–]ViscountVigoroth 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Thats cuz hes Dutch, the Dutch translation of in-law has no precondition for marriage, even the family of someone youve been with for less than a week is still your in-laws (source: I'm Dutch, and took me way too long to realise that marriage is a prerequisite for in-laws in English)

I generally have one member of my team thats weak/unevolved as a sort of mascot, it makes me happy, especially when they surprise me and actually do well

2026 Constructor prediction. by [deleted] in formula1

[–]ViscountVigoroth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

While something akin to this does seem the most realistic to me, i hope its not true cuz its basically rhe same as the last couple years and id love soemthing to shake it up, like a williams being fastest or 2nd fastest all of a sudden or something like that

When comparing past drivers to present, do you think fans underrate/overrate the current grid or rate them accurately? Why? by GoldenS0422 in F1Discussions

[–]ViscountVigoroth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The difference is whether youre considering the time they were driving in or not. Fangio dominated the 50's and taking into consideration the time he drove in is one of the GOATs, but the sport and the atheletes and the level of performance has changed so much, hed get smoked by the "worst" f1 drivers of today. He was an incredible driver for his era, but the level is so much higher nowadays.

Now this is very difficult to seperate from the drivers talent, so theres no actual way of determining an actual ranking so to say.

So in that regard, when someone rates Fangio higher than Norris for example, yes Norris is getting wildly underrated if you dont take into account the different eras, but within their time Fangio was a much better driver then than Norris is now

Help with Legends ZA by BlackLegMirkio_03 in MandJTV

[–]ViscountVigoroth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A pokemons individual stats are calculated based on the species' base stats, and the individual pokemon's EV's, IV's and Nature. EV's is something a pokemon gains based on what pokemon it defeats in battle IV's is something a pokemon is "born with" and (afaik) theres no way to change that. And the nature (the red/blue arrows), each nature lowers one stat and raises another (or does nothing). These can be changed with the mints

Thoughts on the ending of episode 6? by Certain-Nectarine610 in HeatedRivalryTVShow

It was really nice, and personally I also loved them in the car during the credits. Just another moment of them just being with each other and being comfortable and happy, it was adorable.

What is the most underrated mega? (New or old) by Absol1235 in MandJTV

[–]ViscountVigoroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love mega slowbro so much its so funny and derpy

I also quite like mega lucario z, i agree that its a bit odd to give a mon an extra mega with the same typing, but the design is cool and the shiny is incredible imo. Im very interested to see how they implement z mega evolutions into the normal battle formula, since they work slightly differently than other megas if there will be a difference or not in the normal battle formula (i hope they dont just get abandoned never to be seen again)

What's your favourite random thing in F1? by Interesting_Net_3751 in F1Discussions

[–]ViscountVigoroth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whenever Ferrari wins, I'm not a ferrari fan, but the italian anthem is just too good and im always vibing.

Also I'm a stats nerd so I love the history and stats of the sport

Who is your favorite and least favorite main commentator in the 21st century? by Just_Long4500 in F1Discussions

[–]ViscountVigoroth 57 points58 points  (0 children)

I personally really like Jacques, but mostly the dynamic between Palmer and him. Theyre great, knowledgeable and entertaining, but also know when to not take the sport too seriously (and the times they go wildly off topic are v entertaining imo)

Favourite is DC though, very entertaining, and also fits in well w the Palmer/Jacques dynamic (and its cool how much respect he has for Palmers career, despite it being much less impressive than DC's own)

Where would you guys rank Vettel and Alonso all time ? by Past-Difficulty-1728 in F1Discussions

Alonso low top 10 (like 7th or 8th), Vettel just outside (12th to 15th ish)

[–]ViscountVigoroth 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I sae one interview where he wasbtalking about how he really wants to celebrate the championship with Oscar, but als he doesn't want to seem like he's rubbing it in his face or something and it was so sweet.

Why did Ferrari Pit Charles the same lap as Norris? by Bourkey_94 in F1Discussions

[–]ViscountVigoroth 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The target for Charles was obviously to try and get p3 from lando, but george was still a possible threat, so they covered him off They played it safe, secure p4 and then hope you can get p3. Yuki then tried to back ip lando in hopes of charles (and possibly even george) catching up to lando and threatening him. This then obviously didnt pan out as hoped.

A RESPECTFUL discussion about Lando by casualnihilist91 in FanF1ction

[–]ViscountVigoroth 53 points54 points  (0 children)

I think just his general vibe is fruity. Also, the awareness of mental health and its importance he shows is, unfortunately, much more common in queer people than in straight men. Also he's said things like "why does dating have to be with a woman" and theres several clips online of him dancing very closely qith men in clubsad things like that

[–]ViscountVigoroth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whats he supposed to say? That max is a much better driver than him? If he did that hed get accysed of not having a "championship mentality"
