>>66337801
every driver on the grid made at least one silly mistake last year.

and yet people single out pastor, despite the fact that the majority of his incidents were due to other drivers.
>>
>>66337914
it doesn't fit the english language media narrative to acknowledge this

we saw the same thing when perez was at mclaren. several times perez was clearly the faster driver, but Button was given free reign by fans and media to swerve and block and brake check and pretend Perez was too "aggressive" when attempting to pass him
>>
>>66337914
he was shit mate, come on
if he was good, he would have been retained by a team even without his sponsorship

The idea that Pastor is actually a decent driver is typical 4chan contrarianism at its finest. Even in his grand prix winning year, he mostly disappeared for the rest of the season and was arguably outraced by Bruno fucking Senna
>>

so? alonso was "arguably" outraced by trulli for a few years. maldonado significantly improved in the last 2 seasons, shit changes.

You're wrong. I like the ones in the middle row but I don't like the ones in the bottom row (which I think are Alonso, Massa, and then obviously Vettel)

But yeah the ones on the bottom are shit. Alonso's and Massa's have too much going on, terrible colour combinations. And Vettel's looks like it was made in Paint.

The ones in the middle are really good, I really like that sort of tailed parallelogram shape that's on Di Resta's helmet, and on the one in the middle (Maldonado?). It's on Lewis' helmet too and his helmet is fucking based in my opinion (pic related)

He was the world champion last year, that gives him the right to take the number 1 for his car this year. He chose to keep his assigned number 44 instead of the traditional number 1.

His helmet design is reflecting that he is the reigning #1

rossbrawnwearingafedora.jpg

>>66343943
yvw m8, sorry I thought you were trollin.

drivers taking permanent numbers started in 2014, before that the WDC took the #1 and the numbers 'usually' followed suit with the teams relative finishing position. drivers didn't have numbers that they kept for their careers before 2014.

The FIA has given the driver the choice of keeping their career number or switching to the traditional #1 following their WDC.
>>
>>66344165
>curacao isn't trolling
>>
>>66343943
Extra trivia bonus is if a driver wins the WDC but retires, the replacement driver for next season uses the number 0.
>>
>>66344216
What if a driver wins the WDC and then switches team? Can they still keep the number 1 even if the new team didn't earn it?

Yes.

Would he have though? I reckon his sense of entitlement would get the better of him, and Merc are better at handling personalities than Ron 'mild autism' Dennis. I rate Alonso with the all time greats, and it would be great to see the two of them go up against one another almost ten years later.

>too on the fence and political
yeah, he even tried to defend that awful quali format. otherwise, I have no problem and he has gotten much better at calling the race the past few years
>>
>>66346151
I suspect that Crofty feels like he is replaceable (he might be) and doesn't want to ruffle the wrong person's feathers. As he gets established, like Martin Brundle is now, I expect he will be more willing to 'call it as he sees it'.

The top ones look awful with the exception of MSC's. They have nothing interesting about them.

At least Vettel's is an homage to MSC's old karting helmet, but even then, his 2015+2016 helmet is much worse than his old creative RB helmets.

So i just saw someone post about this in one of the threads and read people posting stuff like Haas are ahead of McLaren and stuff so i figured i will give you guys a run down on how fast the McLaren actually is.
So we will take Jenson's car for obvious reasons,
This is him and Nico. Mark the laps where Jenson fitted new mediums and was in clean air. It might have something to do with Nico's brake issues but its still encouraging,
Laps 32 to 39. Button caught up to Nasr at 40 and got stuck behind him.
http://en.mclarenf-1.com/index.php?page=chart&gp=956&graf=3&dr1=Jenson%20Button&dr2=Nico%20Rosberg

Now let's take Force India
Perez,
http://en.mclarenf-1.com/index.php?page=chart&gp=956&graf=3&dr1=Jenson%20Button&dr2=Sergio%20Perez
Yes Button fitted new mediums later than Perez but over the course of the race Button was MUCH faster than Perez. Look at the time when Button was running in clean air.
Hulk,
http://en.mclarenf-1.com/index.php?page=chart&gp=956&graf=3&dr1=Jenson%20Button&dr2=Nico%20Hulkenberg
They were more or less neck and neck with Button having superior medium tyre pace.
>>
>>66347738

Haas,
http://en.mclarenf-1.com/index.php?page=chart&gp=956&graf=3&dr1=Jenson%20Button&dr2=Romain%20Grosjean
Nasr,
He got stuck behind Nasr at lap 40,
http://en.mclarenf-1.com/index.php?page=chart&gp=956&graf=3&dr1=Jenson%20Button&dr2=Felipe%20Nasr
Sainz STR,
http://en.mclarenf-1.com/index.php?page=chart&gp=956&graf=3&dr1=Jenson%20Button&dr2=Carlos%20Sainz%20Jr.
Whats to be noted here is both Button and Sainz fitted new mediums within a couple of laps of each other and their race pace on new mediums with equal fuel load was more or less the same. Again laps 32-39 for Jenson was clean air, 41-46 for sainz was clean air.
Now for the big one,
Bottas,
http://en.mclarenf-1.com/index.php?page=chart&gp=956&graf=3&dr1=Jenson%20Button&dr2=Valtteri%20Bottas
Yes Bottas fitted mediums much earlier BUT see how button is slower on SS than Bottas on mediums after the redflag and then once Jenson fits new mediums and gets clean air he starts flying and is much faster than Bottas for the entire last stint and not just when he is in clean air.. Overall McLaren had a MUCH better racepace than Bottas in Australia.
>>
>>66347746

So yeah they have made a HUGE step and i believe this will be the slowest race pace they will have all year and they will improve more than almost everyone else.

>They are faster than FI,Haas,Sauber,Manor,Renault and almost neck and neck with STR. They were faster than one of the Williams (a merc powered) car.

Yes i think the engine still lacks a grunt but they are ahead of Renault right now in peak power but not how the power is delivered. With McLaren's and Honda's $$$$ i believe they will outpace the development rate of FI,STR and Williams and 4th Fastest car is easily doable. RBR is still a tall task but seeing the race pace of Jenson , we can be optimistic. ALonso will be a bit faster than him.

Thoughts on this? Very interesting move considering that Vettel is one of the top dogs at the GPDA and Ferrari are one of the teams that throw their weight around the most. They make a lot of valid points though even though they had to keep the letter non-confrontational in tone.

F1 was pretty damn lucky to have a relatively exciting race at all.

If the race had also been a shit MWL fest with no action or drama at all people would have been so outraged. But now everyone has other topics to talk about, how Alonso crashed, Haas, Ferrari pace, tyre strats etc.

I also can't believe that people whose education levels top out at "graduated high school" and have spent their entire adult lives racing cars for a living have to explain to professional businessmen how to run a sport in a slightly less retarded way. Just how incompetent and clueless are the decisionmakers, whoever they may be?

Pretty sure F1 is going to Hockenheim this year for the German GP.

Adelaide will never happen. Jerez is pretty shit, Motegi isn't great, Buddh is awesome to drive but was a borefest race every time. I'd rather return to Korea than India if we had to choose from the Tilkedromes

Istanbul Park isn't going to come back ever again either. They should just remake that track in the countryside of some less shitty country in the middle of the woods and mountains Spa/Austria style.

I'd love to see F1 race at Macau for maximum memes.

I would happily drop Catalunya from the calendar, it's a boring race almost exclusively. Shanghai should definitely be dropped as well in favor of Macau or something else in Asia that's less shit.

I feel like the old layout would be too much for drivers with any car post-1990ish. There's just too many long, high speed corners and I don't think the human body, no matter how fit, could withstand 40 laps of that shit. God-tier circuit though.
