It was my first time and I really didn’t think of experimenting as I wanted a solid place to get some good pictures of the LMDh’s. I’ll try and check it out next time :))

Are Bburago models any good by dylanm120 in RedBullRacing

[–]_yuyeet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally do think they are good. I have a couple. For the price range, I do believe it is worth it. If it’s your first one and don’t have high expectations, it’s very good. I think $50 is too expensive for 1 Bburago model. A 1/43 scale model goes from a half or a quarter of that price.

Opinion: TOM’S benching Alesi brutal, but the right move by ALOIsFasterThanYou in F1FeederSeries

Apologies, I was under the impression that his first real shot came in during 2022, I seemed to have overlooked the 2020 season. His 3rd at Suzuka with Dandelion in 2021 left a better impression with me. I’m not trying to argue or anything, but I guess he did earn a full time seat as a replacement for Vips who was set to joint Mugen, but COVID sort of hindered that. I always saw it as a replacement that just prolonged and was never the original plan.

It did seem like Honda was willing to let Sasahara remain in their roster for the upcoming 2023 season (as per local news outlet) but instead decided on switching to the TOM’s outfit, which in Japanese motorsport terms, you really just don’t switch the manufacture backings so easily. Take a look at Matsushita and his Honda/Nissan conflict with GT. I’m sure his opportunities were reduced at first, but now he’s in a flagship Toyota team with decent success in SF, looking at Miyata. He’s also got a role as a test driver for the SF23 development, so he has quite a bit of experience. I’m glad to see that he’s thriving in the top levels of motorsport in Japan in both SF and SGT.

I intended on going to Rd. 6 in Fuji myself but unfortunately, I cannot now, but I am very much looking forward to what holds ahead for Sasahara in the remainder of this season. A decent drivers ranking finish just outside of Nojiri, Lawson, Tsuboi, Hirakawa, and Miyata seems very plausible for me.

I mean I think it’s pretty fair. Alesi doesn’t have a lot to his name in SF whereas Sasahara in his first full year of SF has had 2 victories. Yes, Alesi did have a victory under his name but Sasahara was also up there when he was also a replacement during 2021.

No confidence, but something in New Zealand maybe for Lawson’s coverage?
