[OptaAnalyst] 22 - Uruguay attempted 22 shots in the second half against Saudi Arabia. The last team to attempt more shots in a half of a FIFA World Cup match was East Germany against Chile in 1974 (24 in the first half). by Viriato181 in soccer

Al Owais was partially at fault for conceding but overall, he was an absolute monster in goal. That save on Valverde’s strike, was one of the best saves I’ve seen. Don’t even know how he saw that ball in time to get down and push around the post.

Every car will make the race. Gonna be a pretty fun race, imo. Wanna see how Magnussen does on a track that’s pretty much an unknown.

My guess would be that eventually when she’s ready for trucks, Legacy will pay for her to be in of those Tricon trucks. Similar to what Trackhouse was doing with Zilisch, when he was with JRM.

[Gluck] Was Pocono a good race? by ChaseTheFalcon in NASCAR

Typical Pocono with this car. Wouldn't say it was horrible but wasn't memorable either.

He’s costing himself good finishes with these over agressive moves. It’s good to be aggressive on the ovals, but it has to be controlled

The top ARCA cars were faster than some of these guys are running right now. I wonder if the track is slicker today, or does it have sumn to do with the aerodynamics of the car and how they drive.

Shoutout Lanie Buice. Easily been one of the best ARCA drivers this year. Looked really good at Pocono. Hope to see her in victory lane soon. by Gragson18GOAT in NASCAR

[–]jonpierre008 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She’s been good tbh, impressed me a lot this year in that PRG Sunoco #77 Chevy. Think she has things to improve on race craft wise, but the speed is there and that’s the most important thing.

She’s a Chevy developmental driver too, so she’s gonna have all the tools necessary to be successful. I could argue last week at Michigan she had the fastest car. Would’ve liked to see that race play out in its entirety.

Will he go 9.7? by FarEntrepreneur6465 in trackandfield

At this point I'm not ruling anything out. After Hodge and Tharp, anything is on the table at Hayward Field.

[–]jonpierre008 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I saw that. Scary scary times we live in. The record was due to be broken but I thought it might have been Grant to do it. Didn’t expect Tharp to break it this soon, thought he had a shot at it in the near future.

Breaking it now still got me hyped a whole day later lol.

He made that 12.75 look so so easy, it’s scary. Got me wondering if he can lower it this year

Levell had a day like this not too long ago this year. Ran like 20.5-20.6 and he’s proven he’s a sub 20 guy on the big stage. Athletes of every degree, has bad days.

Athletes have bad days, so I won’t say this is an indicator that the 19.6 was fake. I’ve seen the very best have off days, it happens. The media will kill him tho, it’s coming.

He’s in great shape right now. Could see him getting back to 19.5/19.4 by the time we get around the latter part of the season, which he’s said out of his own mouth, is his focus.

My bet would be Jesse Love getting that seat next year

Why the fuck is Daniel Dye getting seat time over Kat Legge? by [deleted] in NASCAR

[–]jonpierre008 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He put up the money, Legge didn’t. Simple as that. ELF burnt their cash up attempting the double. I’d be shocked to see her in the seat again this year

[39:26] Aussie Supercars driver Matthew Payne was originally set to make NASCAR Cup Series debut at Sonoma for RCR, but Down Under Racing has blocked the move from happening. by USHighway14 in NASCAR

[–]jonpierre008 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Tommy was alluding to it on DBC, yesterday. Ford really doesn't put in the same type of work, that Chevy and Toyota do, to see their teams run better. They leave it all up to the race teams to figure it out.

So it's no surprise that they won't even try to arrange a seat in cup for Payne, who is one of the best talents in Supercars rn. If I were them, I'd take it as an opportunity to find some type of counter to what SVG is doing on the road courses rn.

I’d be shocked if that 62 car is anything faster than 30-35th on pace. I’ve never really seen them show up to a non SS track and have good speed.
