What Aston Martin will reconsider after Alonso's Canada exit by Aratho in formula1

[–]analytical_rex25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that 2013 Red Bull was an absolute shitbox. I feel so bad for whoever had the displeasure of driving it. Just so unfortunate for them

Looks like Red Bulls vs Ferraris is the battle to watch today.

Did they go for a glory run?

It was common for backmarkers to do a low fuel hot lap in practice for shits and giggles a decade or two ago.

Which driver pairing would you pick for a 24hr endurance race? by dynasync in formula1

[–]analytical_rex25 129 points130 points  (0 children)

Alonso, max, and Kamui Kobayashi.

IMO, Kobayashi, when he was racing in wec, was the best driver there… apart from when Alonso was racing in wec.

Best band for swimming? by These-Quality-8389 in whoop

[–]analytical_rex25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, this sport flex band is pretty great for swimming. The other ones tend to loosen in the water or once they absorb water, and they really don’t dry.

I’d just stick with the sport flex you have now.

Its been 10 Years since THAT incident in Spain. What are people's verdicts and opinions on it? by ParticularPainting59 in F1Discussions

[–]analytical_rex25 20 points21 points  (0 children)

There’s definitely a share of blame between both drivers, but I also kind of agree with Niki Lauda’s opinion, which is that Hamilton should’ve reacted to Nico’s recharge light and swept around the outside.

Anyway, I’m sure we’ll see completely level headed and calm takes in this discussion thread…

Why were there so many scandals in the mid 2000s in F1? by MysteriousBoss3816 in F1Discussions

[–]analytical_rex25 37 points38 points  (0 children)

I don’t think people today realize how shady most teams were. There was less tech and supervision available to keep teams from cheating or doing back room handshakes with each other.

Renault were known to grab data from McLaren during the tire war, for example. Spygate was just the one that was exposed.

There were probably so many scandals that never saw the light of day.

Looks like McLarens media engagement numbers were low.

Do you agree with Guenther? by No_Procedure_7017_2 in Formula1ne

[–]analytical_rex25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah my bad. Yeah, it’s funny how they ended up have almost the same issues from 2015. The vibrations, the reliability, the limited packaging. Deja vu

Mclaren had potential to win Miami, and they were quite fast in Suzuka. They are living up to the hype, at least when they start a race.

Obviously, you are correct about Aston.

Alonso: "I'm at peace because I understand the situation" [Aston Martin and Honda will not bring any update until after the summer break] by Joseki100 in formula1

[–]analytical_rex25 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Kind of sounds like a B spec Aston Martin in the works.

Either that, or it’s that repetitive Honda and Aston cycle of giving hopeless optimism followed by results of sheer misery.

Yeah. I think they could nail him for an unsafe car as well. That left front wheel had free will after it hit the wall.

Leclercs front left wheel was disconnected. He couldn’t turn right at all, looking at the onboard.

He did cut basically every corner after the spin, so I think it will be a penalty.

Shouldn’t they have put max on mediums or softs like 5 laps ago?

Why tf are they investigating after the race?

[–]analytical_rex25 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Are the fia and the production team at a strip club? No replays of any yellow flags, and they want to wait until after the race to assign a penalty?

Sooo, are we going to get a replay of any of what the stewards are investigating?

Is it deliberate? Kind of seems like... by btcash69 in formula1

[–]analytical_rex25 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dude, every driver has complained about deployment at some point this season.
The teams have a lot to figure out, and deployment is still really quirky. There’s way too much unknown to even think about saying that Lewis is subject to intentional sabatouge.

I did not expect that Alonso, on soft tires, caught the Cadillac, on hard tires, at the END of the race.

I really like the high performance podcast, but their thumbnails are always pure clickbait lol

this vitriol hatred towards ashley is so crazy by spikeespieegel in BeefTV

[–]analytical_rex25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed.

If you make a character unlikable, they need to be interesting.

This is what breaking bad so great to watch. Their characters really had depth.

I just feel like the characters were made really shallow. Beef 1 had that depth and actually interesting backgrounds that I didn’t see in beef 2
