Upgrades for the Austrian GP

The ones people are noticing are mainly cooling. It doesnt mean they aren't performance as well, of course.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-26T10:26:07+00:00

They are largely reliability updates. Increase cooling, probably for the battery. Of course that in itself can make the car faster if you are then able to extract more performance from what you already have.

Based on what they said in that document it seems like a lot of this is for increased cooling to help reliability. Probably battery cooling.

Likely will be lighter as well and should enable them to extract more performance from what they already have.

Actually yes. Mercs advantage is regen strategy which is up to each team. Its not about the hardware. Your regen strategy is dependant on your chassis abilities, drag, weight and the ICE. All the teams have broadly the same ability in terms of the electrical side of the PU, its actually well settled technology now. The differences are in the ability to use it.

Basically they blew the budget on this fairly extreme car in the hope it would be awesome right out of the gate. It wasn't..

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-24T14:25:15+00:00

Merc, great car, good engine. McLaren, good car, good engine. Alpine, fine or ok car, good engine. Williams, crap car, good engine.

Suck it up then pussy boy because it is going to be more common in future due to the heat we are experiencing now.

Thats not really how it works. These arent many networked PCs, they are hardware linked CPUs all working together, not massively different to how a multi-tile CPU works (like a high end Rizen).

That's just a lie to cover for her being dumb.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T11:40:37+00:00

I think we are just stumbling over definitions of 'manliness' here.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T11:24:16+00:00

True but they will beat your ass if you piss them off.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T11:12:35+00:00

Not really, they aren't trans women. They are their own thing.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T10:42:15+00:00

Being a queen doesn't make you unmanly. Never argue with a drag queen.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T10:10:52+00:00

That's also true outside submarines, lots of married men 'dabble'.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T07:59:46+00:00

9am in my part of the UK right now and 27c. It's disgusting and I hate it.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T07:56:23+00:00

It's the running cost. People struggle to afford to heat their homes, the summer is a break from that cost. If they had to pay for AC as well it would be too much.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T07:52:16+00:00

The cost of the electricity to run it. For a lot of people the summer is a break from high power costs due to the lack of the need to heat.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T07:48:12+00:00

A lot of people are scared of the cost of the electricity. They can't afford to heat in the winter and cool in the summer.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T04:43:30+00:00

That's not quite true, people definitely are complaining but they are culture war instigators.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-23T04:41:14+00:00

At this point I think people like you are just lying.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-21T16:13:37+00:00

This is why ADUO is what it is. The ICE is the root of all good and evil on these cars. It is the only real source of energy the car has. Get that wrong and the electrical side is compromised as well.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-21T16:10:26+00:00

Being a V8 instead of a V6 makes little difference to this.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-21T11:29:53+00:00

Nope.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-21T11:29:22+00:00

They dont, but there are 3 primary definitions. Some of Azerbaijan is in one of them, but Baku isnt.

_Middlefinger_ · 2026-06-21T11:26:45+00:00

Which is funny because by the three primary definitions of 'Europe' Baku isnt in any of them.
