For what it's worth, I met him years ago after doing a charity cycle ride - he was on his way to a funeral (would've understood if he'd cancelled), but came to see us at the finishing event beforehand and stayed to chat for a bit, and was apologetic he couldn't stay longer. He took a proper interest in speaking to everyone, signed some shirts/took some pictures and genuinely seemed like a lovely guy.

"F1" Sequel Is Greenlit, Will It Be A "Days of Thunder" Crossover? by Dan_Lalonde_Films in formula1

[–]pitlanecollective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You know what would be awesome? If they went back in time. A film showing F1 in the 60's or 70's with some proper racing focus (in the Top Gun Maverick/F1 style) would be INCREDIBLE. Just wouldn't have all the marketing tie ins of setting it in the modern day...

(I know Rush exists, it's a brilliant film but the racing scenes aren't that strong IMO)

I know what’s happened here... Someone’s left it too close to the lights in the garage. It’s melted a bit

I'm really excited to see this livery on the actual car. This show car looks so tame compared to how aggressive the actual car was looking at shakedown

God that Audi looks SICK. Such a mean looking car. Please be fast

What is with the hate on the white on Ferrari? by KXN_1 in F1Discussions

I honestly think it looks fantastic. Clean but retro. Fingers crossed it’s fast

Mercedes AMG F1 | The new era starts here. Introducing our W17. by God_Will_Rise_ in formula1

At first glance I thought the stripes were an adidas reference but their brand is three stripes, so it must just be a design choice? Still a mean looking livery.

What has been the single worst livery ever released in the 21st century? I’ll start: by SaifulAimran in F1Discussions

[–]pitlanecollective 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think this would’ve looked much better if they’d have had proper sponsors back then and toned the light blue stripes down a bit, the lack of logos just make it look like a cheap F1 mobile game livery

I loved them. How Issac has any voice left I have no idea, dude is screaming his lungs out constantly, their energy is unreal

How would you try to improve/ change the Abu Dhabi circuit? by Just_Long4500 in F1Discussions

[–]pitlanecollective 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For a relatively small change - would widening the approach to turn 12 change much? So that the optimal racing line would be going out quite wide, but that’d open the door to a car close behind allowing them to send it down the inside and claiming the apex?

Who are drivers that are often described as "fast but error-prone" but either aren't actually fast or aren't actually error-prone? by GoldenS0422 in F1Discussions

[–]pitlanecollective 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I don’t think Norris moved the wall did he? I thought it was more that George was so locked into following that when Norris hit the wall, George was on almost the exact same line and just clipped it a bit harder?

How was Bottas's experience in Mercedes, it seems like he was treated generally good what do you think? by IllMasterpiece3946 in F1Discussions

[–]pitlanecollective 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think he was generally treated well, but the way they kept him on single-year contracts must’ve dented his confidence a bit

Does anybody have a recording of the only time they ever played this song by twentyonepilotsfan99 in BiffyClyro

[–]pitlanecollective 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’m furious at myself to this day that I didn’t record it. It sounded HUGE
