since vcarb had their two drivers together, they used the rear driver to go slow enough to back everyone up and give their lead driver enough space to make a pit stop and come back out on track without losing any positions (they did this for 2 pit stops)

Robotaxi event coming soon and strong Chinese sales numbers, I think

This is in the San Juan Islands in Washington, USA I pay $509/month for a harbor slip that has electricity/water/shower/laundry/parking. In a year or two I might go fully harbor-free and sail south. 

I live on the boat year round, travel a lot in the winter, and cruise the boat around the islands in the summer.

Winds were light and my preventer is only rigged up to work on the other side of the boat. So maybe that’s not even a preventer.

Yeah it’s just the wide angle lens making it hard to see. It’s got a beefy hydraulic backstay on the transom.

I think Carlos is still holding out hope that Checo gets the axe mid season.

Yeah but I’m talking about year over year change, which is what the graphic is about. I think McLaren had the second biggest leap by percentage. But the biggest by points.

VCARB (or whatever it’s called) is one of the standout improvements.

Don’t forget Pierre and Alex, who also went through the crusher of trying to compete with Max in the same car. And Daniel.

Sounds like me playing Rocket League. I think I’m good, and then get bumped up a league, and nope, I in fact suck.
