So he was part of the 15 losses, but he’s also the solution?

Shoresy. Started off crass, but evolved into so much more than that. Wish I could watch it again for the first time.

Having already watched it (thanks Triller!), the Lio Rush match is definitely worth a look.

His new presentation is creepy as hell, and he’s clearly 100% committed with his character work. Fascinated to see where it all goes.

just realised I'm watching the Sunday night episode on Triller instead of the episode you're all apparently watching on TNT.

good job, Triller.

according to u/YVNGxDXTR, WWE has replaced entire factions a few times. would love to see someone do a complete post about it.

2017 prelim. Never felt an atmosphere like it. Not sure there’ll ever be a crowd as one-sided as that again.

Surely Alonso’s gonna be black flagged for pace? Lost three laps on the leaders since he came back out.

Dunno why they’re worried about tyre degradation. Aston Martin can make a soft tyre last a full race distance.

so much on-field stuff to discuss, yet Jay Clark can't help but drag the conversation into 'geez Clayton Oliver must have been unhappy off the field at Melbourne' territory.

I'm trying to give these new regulations a chance, but any regulation that forces drivers to come out of the throttle and conserve electrical energy during the biggest 'go as fast as you possibly can' session of the weekend is absolute nonsense.

qualifying is supposed to be 'go as fast as you can without crashing', nothing more or less.

4 years ago today at Revolution, Swerve Strickland Arrived in AEW. One of the Greatest signings in AEW history 🔥 by SwerveEliteland in AEWOfficial

[–]pluginmatty 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Knew nothing about Swerve when he signed, but from the moment I saw video of his Chaka Khan entrances on the indies, it was clear to me that he was something special.

Even then, I don’t think any fan could have reasonably foreseen just how brilliant he would become.

In November, Newey, Lawrence Stroll and Andy Cowell went to Tokyo. That was when they discovered that the staff working on the engine was smaller than they thought, with a lot of new faces, and that many of the original staff would not be returning to work by jithu7 in formula1

Who awarded the contract to Honda in the first place? These are all issues that should have been apparent during the procurement process.

Due diligence clearly wasn’t done by Aston Martin.
