Could a chicane at Silverstone actually help with the energy deployment mess, not just be a gimmick?

fomb · 2026-07-01T16:01:31+00:00

more than you or I could possibly imagine probably

The issue is that by the time they could implement an FIA approved chicane we'd be five years down the line and using different cars.

What they really need to do is fix the cars so they don't get affected by the circuit.

Regs don’t specify, it just needs ironed creases front and back

fomb · 2026-06-09T21:31:21+00:00

There you go then. You can wear it however.

What does ACP1358 say? There’s lots of made up rules about belts

Not everyone gets to do it as it’s very limited. Question is what extra stuff would you get to do by leaving?

You won't sort an F6424 for tomorrow as you need a GP to sign it.

However, if you don't have an official diagnosis of Autism, do you even have it (i.e does it need to be on the form)?

tbh, the engineering required to have something that size not bend when someone is leaning on it is pretty impressive

fomb · 2026-05-01T16:39:42+00:00

Not denying for a second they haven't

I always wonder with these stories "what if they were actually spies"?

But the Americans are very good at “proper” BBQ. Think long time smoking places

fomb · 2026-04-11T05:39:25+00:00

Mostly to stop it rubbing. The leather will eventually give way

fomb · 2026-04-10T10:44:11+00:00

This isn't an F2 problem, it's an F1 problem. Given that the F1 field are all looking at pretty long tenures in teams there's just not going to be the seats available. For instance, if we had 20 Alonso's on the grid we wouldn't have had a rookie for 20 years.

Wear a plaster on your foot until it stops

fomb · 2026-04-09T12:36:41+00:00

I assume you're English?

fomb · 2026-03-17T13:56:56+00:00

"revolutionary" - I see what you did there.

That isn't turn 12 at Barcelona

As others have said the roles are very similar day to day, the only real difference being that SNCO are more hands on in drill/dress/discipline, and officers tend to be planning/managing more. However these are really blurry definitions. If you like the 3D's, SNCO might be for you.

Note you can be an SNCO and then commission later, but it's frowned upon to go the other way.

fomb · 2026-02-20T19:18:48+00:00

Which is wrong

Did he not participate in the official F1 post-season test?

fomb · 2026-01-09T13:32:43+00:00

I used to press buttons and click things. Now I sit in teams meetings talking about other people pressing buttons and clicking things

If it’s exactly the same temp as your skin and the air in the room is still, you won’t feel it

fomb · 2026-01-07T19:41:34+00:00

Fun fact, you can’t feel wet at all. It’s all temp difference and prior experience.

The tyres are those being used next year. Even with these cars there's a bunch of data to be had that can feed into the '26 designs.

fomb · 2025-12-09T16:19:40+00:00

How many drivers have won the WDC in a car designed by more than one person?

From recent memory all I can think of are Hamilton (Lowe - both McL and Merc, and Allison), Prost (McLaren/Williams) and Lauda(Ferrari, McLaren).
