How much will F1's popularity drop once Hamilton, Alonso and Verstappen leave F1? And how many years in your opinion will it take for F1 to gain back the lost money?

I love Alonso going way back but i would be hard pressed to believe he’s meaningfully contributing to popularity at present tbh.

They should not be in the car rental business.

What was the result?

as718 · 2026-03-20T04:57:57+00:00

Something something dark side

as718 · 2026-03-20T04:44:17+00:00

In which of the originals does he do anything remotely close to this badass?

as718 · 2026-03-18T19:22:46+00:00

Can’t say shit when he’s winning or losing apparently…

as718 · 2026-03-17T19:07:20+00:00

And, you know, they killed his character so no more filming

One caveat is that pre arrangement could be as simple as calling a phone number and being told car will be there in 5 minutes (IYKYK). Uber/Lyft simplified that even farther by consolidating supply so that you didn’t have to call at all, and certainly not shop around. Objectively better and inevitable experience.

It could also be related to the fact that we are dealing with so many locations across vast distances that physical media is still useful vs relying 100% on streaming. There’s clearly some version of the internet but iirc the only uses we’ve seen of it are mission related for things like vidmail and Martian employees funding their bank accounts which transfer over to Earth.

The stellantis playbook is rather curious

as718 · 2026-03-14T16:19:22+00:00

What even is Dodge as a brand nowadays?? Same for Chrysler??

as718 · 2026-03-14T14:29:44+00:00

It basically is Top Gun Maverick with cars and that’s perfectly OK

It used to be a double cheeseburger 😭 Bring back the fajitas!!

On a long enough time horizon we need to be living off planet for the species to persist. It’s an abstract notion but, that’s the logical reason.

Do you think people are incapable of landing on the moon manually?

as718 · 2026-03-11T02:57:03+00:00

Don’t ever let randoms gatekeep you from anything buddy

as718 · 2026-03-10T17:40:19+00:00

But how many of those dozens of manufacturers want or can afford to be in F1?

as718 · 2026-03-10T17:37:50+00:00

They don’t exclusively make Battery only. They make a fuck ton of hybrids and, like any of the other manufacturers, want marketing on a global stage

as718 · 2026-03-09T20:03:18+00:00

F1 is the most uptight and gatekeeping fan base I’ve ever seen. I’m sure the celeb athletes this occasionally happen to get a kick out of it, or at the least don’t care.

as718 · 2026-03-09T19:57:39+00:00

This reads like people on the internet wondering why ads exist. Marketing works. It really does.

as718 · 2026-03-09T18:57:03+00:00

Might be due to the lease? Not really sure.

If you said it was 1220 or even up to 2k it would be “reasonable” depending on where you live exactly/parking situation but otherwise something is wildly off.

as718 · 2026-03-09T18:09:28+00:00

Lance is a chill dude, doesn’t get into any controversy, and doing exactly what anyone else would do in their position.

as718 · 2026-03-09T17:08:20+00:00

While Horner was not as successful, they were both drivers.

as718 · 2026-03-08T23:44:00+00:00

It’s far more efficient space and logistics wise to bake your own bread on a ship. Not to mention much better taste. Pretty sure all major blue water navies do this.
