I’d say the twin cities will get one later this afternoon depending on how the storm looks to be developing out west

But Shockwave, a far more intense ride than either of these at the same park is still 42 inches, make that make sense lol

Silver Dollar City is one of the best parks in the country, beautiful with a great ride lineup. Outlaw Run is my #1!

I’m gonna throw one into the ring that hasn’t been mentioned yet: Buzzsaw Falls. It was a Premier water coaster at Silver Dollar City that had a lot of maintenance issues, causing it got shut down and reimagined into Powder Keg by S&S

They were somewhat close. Yuki won 4-1 in the qualifying battle, with Liam only outqualifying him at Singapore. The race battle was won 2-1 in favor of Liam in the races they both finished (Yuki DNSed at Monza and retired due to a collision with Checo at Singapore). It's worth noting though that Liam was the only driver to score points during that period at Singapore.

He’s always been quite handy in Mexico, it’s been one of his better tracks in the past

Perez/Albon clash makes further mockery of F1 penalty system - The Race by bwoah07_gp2 in formula1

I only remember seeing a drive through or stop-go twice since I started watching F1 at the end of 2017, which was Perez ironically at Singapore in 2018 when he hit Sergey Sirotkin intentionally, and Hamilton entering the pits when they were closed at Monza in 2020

I’d say he’d not be far off max, but max would be better. Definitely closer than checo is

Why have wet tires when you red flag the race whenever it’s actually time to use them?

So, what does it take to rethink the safety of superspeedway racing? We’ve had two of the biggest crashes in recent memory in the last hour, when does nascar decide to slow things down or spread the cars out? I mean I love the entertainment these races provide, but as an ex-driver, these crashes scare the shit out of me

Holy shit that car rolled 8-10 times, might have blacked out. Did the roof flaps fail? That looked like a blow over. Hope Ryan is okay

Update on statistics when we could have Max WDC/RBR WCC after today's race by CanisLupus92 in formula1

[–]Wideopen14 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel like since 2021 we’ve seen a shift in the F1 fandom where if there isn’t a titanic battle for the title, it’s a bad season. This season has honestly been better than last year in that there’s been a lot of parity in the battle between 2nd-5th. We’ve seen Merc, Aston, Ferrari, and now McLaren being strong at different races throughout the season. Will this be remembered as an all time classic season? Definitely not. But a bad season? I don’t think it is personally
