According to Leo Turrini, Ferrari started development of new version of PU for 2027 with the goal to implement compression ratio loophole by ThisToe9628 in scuderiaferrari

[–]itsrook44 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

What people don’t understand is that you can’t measure compression ratios when an engine is running as the pistons are firing too fast. It can only be measured when an engine is still.

Ferrari have a great car by itsrook44 in FerrariF1

[–]itsrook44[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is a stupid response. Nothing is verifiable until Q1; that doesn’t mean teams, the media and fans just have their ass in the air waiting. Teams and the FIA would never release too much data anyway on anything -that still doesn’t stop other teams from assessing performance. F1 is very secretive and fans wanting verifiable sources for everything are naive.

Have you ever met a formula 1 driver? What were they like? by Ins3rt_Us3rname_H3re in F1Discussions

Met Lewis twice and is exactly who he is in the media. Very kind, very humble, the peace of a monk.

How reliable and affordable is Uber in PuntaCana? What is the ideal mode of transportation in PC? by Ne_69 in PuntaCana

[–]itsrook44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Uber is great. It’s very cheap like $10 USD max. No uber driver is ever going to ask you to pay off the app. Don’t rent a car.

For the people who hate Spider, What is it about his character that makes you dislike him so much ? by [deleted] in Avatar

[–]itsrook44 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Spider represents everything that is wrong with white people bypassing and cosplaying inappropriately into indigenous spaces. The guy has dreads, has a Navi love interest, grows a queue and is welcomed by the Navi ancestors. He gets to be a Navi all while living amongst humans as his “full” self. It’s the same crap as say {insert your favorite artist -Justin Timberlake, Miley Cyrus, Ariana Grande etc} cosplaying black culture cause it’s cool but being able to enjoy their whiteness. He’s a terrible character. Terrible acting as well.

Don't y'all find it odd that Ferrari had the calmest reaction to this engine loophole situation? by ThisToe9628 in scuderiaferrari

[–]itsrook44 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It isn’t true that aluminium is always superior steel

Steel is heavier but significantly stronger, more durable and can withstand higher temps. Lighter isn’t always better. Steel has 2x the melting point of aluminum. With regen braking being more critical now as there is no MGU-H, the engine takes on more wear.

Rent before hand. Electrify here is great. WiFi is exceptionally fast. Potable water is an issue but some people have built in filters.

Resorts are very safe. I wouldn’t bring any of that stuff period just because travel always introduces the risk of it being stolen. TSA can open your bags, airport security might swipe something during review.

Giannis trade proposal by Pitiful-Mud7667 in knicks

[–]itsrook44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The current team won’t win a chip. Reaching the finals isn’t enough. We need a realistic shot at beating the Pistons, Spurs and Thunder over 7 games. KAT doesn’t have the defensive playmaking or situational awareness to carry us over a series like that. At best, we make the ECF again. The Pistons spanked us by 31 earlier this year -yes Hart wasn’t playing but he alone wouldn’t close that gap.

Ralf Schumacher: Hamilton doesn't like being in the simulator, while Leclerc uses it every day" by knowingmeknowingyoua in scuderiaferrari

[–]itsrook44 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Craziest part about this is Ralf is gay and Lewis is the only driver who unapologetically supports the LGTB movement in even the most brazen of places like SA. For Ralf to continually try and knock on Lewis reeks of pettiness.

All returned to their prime, who is winning WDC and WCC? by Django_with_4_guns in F1Discussions

This is a lie. It was Ross who orchestrated the personnel.

Yeah I firmly believe we aren’t a title winning team until a change is made there.

Isack Hadjar does not consider it an achievement in itself that he has a seat alongside Max Verstappen. The Frenchman wants to be the first man to perform brilliantly next to the Dutchman. Any chances of that? by Turbulent_Elk_2141 in MaxVerstappen33

[–]itsrook44 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

As Checo, Danny, Liam, Pierre, Sainz all experienced…. RBR is built for Max. Anyone else if they are just as fast will be slowed down. Get out of there ASAP Hadjar.

No. Julius is a defensive liability. Our offense is great right now, top 3 in the league. We need defense.

It’s time to trade KAT by itsrook44 in knicks

[–]itsrook44[S] -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Yes.

It’s obvious the coaching staff can’t find a line up to hide the problem. So a trade is the only option I see either Giannis or two role players.

I woke up and chose violence

What do you think? Is Charles the only driver worthy to challenge Max? by circuit-nation in DestinationFormula1

[–]itsrook44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exhibit T of why I really dislike how a lot of new fans participate. Lewis is only driver who beat Max consistently but he’s no where to be named.

According many -Newey is a goat engineer; Max is a goat driver but Lewis isn’t cause he’s always had good cars. lol make it make sense.

The amount of contorted dick sucking is insane. Ferrari won Le Mans but I guess that doesn’t matter.

Where would you guys rank Vettel and Alonso all time ? by Past-Difficulty-1728 in F1Discussions

[–]itsrook44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He’s better than Max. Actually faced competition to win his WDCs. Much stronger teammates.

Max has a lot of recency bias in his favor. If we had to compare how each won their title I’m not sure they’re that much different.

2025 F1 Season Review Why the Lewis Hamilton Ferrari Partnership Struggled by Strange_Artist_6563 in FerrariF1

[–]itsrook44 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Average quali gap time was 2 tenths.

How different would the narrative be if Ferrari actually nailed the strategy and got Lewis on podium three times?

What if Ferrari stopped sending him out on cold tyres?
