Now this is a thread I can get on board with.
>>68139271
Oh sure, I get that the stats are skewed. I simply try to point out that they're not skewed to the degree people make it out to be, because many of the advantages he had were not exactly something never seen before in the sport.
will he return to make f1 great again?
best bros
this is the official thread
>>68139287
Friendly reminder that Nico Rosberg blatantly destroyed Schumacher during their time as teammates
>inb4 but he was out of the sport for so long
Literal rookies are given like 5 races, a season TOPS to be on pace and these are drivers who have probably never even driven an F1 car prior to their seat. Especially now that testing is like 2 weeks overall, basically you are expected as a rookie to be on pace and familiar with the car with de facto 5 days of on track time. Meanwhile le GOATmacher 7x WDC took TWO AND A HALF YEARS of testing, races, practices etc to match Nico "average" Rosberg.
>inb4 he was old
Again ,we aren't talking about some impossible crazy great teammate. We're talking about Nico Rosberg who lost the title twice in a row and is now looking to choke away his 50 point WDC lead. Sure Schumi was on pace and maybe even better than Rosberg by the end, but it undoubtedly leaves a mark on his suppsoed GOAT status if he got blatantly outqualified, outraced and outscored by Nico Rosberg for a good portion of their time as teammates.

Haas should really really drop Gutierrez and get Rossi in that seat. I don't know why they haven't done so already. Good promo, more American audience, headlines etc, Rossi's stock at all time high due to Indy 500
Gutierrez benefits nobody as he isn't a good driver nor is he a huge marketing force or anything plus Mexico already has le podium dude to bring in the Mexibucks

Friendly reminder that Schumacher was in his forties at the time, and already racing with brain damage.
His 2009 bike crash had crushed one of the arteries that fed his brain, and had cracked his skull, besides breaking his neck.
>>68139568
i hope so.
a final, error-free season in a car he clicks with would be fun to watch. will never happen, but i would like to see him back at williams. faster than their current pair in race trim 2bh.

pastor seems to think he can find money from somewhere, so something must be going on.
do not forget, his manager is jean cuck's son.
>>68142525
He's got raw talent for sure, its just that he spent 5 years in F1 and barely showed any development. If you crash that often then you're simply driving too fast for your skill level.
>>68142603
I guess Sauber is always open. I dunno, he got absolutely annihilated by Grosjean who is a 8/10 driver so that's not a hugely good look for him.
I would love to see him back though.
>Maldonado
>year out of F1 with no simulator or testing work (aside from some Pirelli test)
>new regs
>cars 3 seconds faster (so ~5-6 seconds faster than the cars he last drove)
what could possibly go wrong?
>>68143128
in qualifying, yes. in the races, they were fairly even last year - with maldonado ahead several times before his car cut out or, more often than not, hit by another driver.
i am pretty sure he was ahead at spa before the shitty pu gave up when he hit a kerb too hard.
podium aside, they were pretty close in the races.
and romain had a massive race-ending crash by himself. pastor did not.
>>68143454
Sure. He definitely isn't some unrealized talent though. Everyone knows hes fast but he just gets into too much trouble.
If he drove for Sauber this season they would probably go bankrupt. If a new front wing costs like 100k then yea
>>68143664
he didn't do much wrong last year, which hopefully would have been the same this year.
monisha has said she would not hire him.
Literally nobody in latinamerica thinks Pastor should even be near F1.
>>68139287

Sky talks about psychological advantage all the time and the worst thing is that its fucking true
Rosberg was dominating and he was very casual and low key about it. Now Hamilton first caused the crash and now he won a race again. Rosberg will choke, the pyschological advantage is a real thing and as much as I don't want to admit it, I have a strong feeling we are going to be seeing a very strong form Hamilton and probably straight up win the next 3-4 races unchallenged

exposed how? he's had terrible luck this season. even at monaco he had troubles in quali and could put in one hot lap in q3, which meant he had to play it safe and secure a top 3 position before he could really challenge ricciardo. RBR's pit fuckup helped him win but ricky was still up his ass for 10-15 laps afterwards and he still couldn't pass hamilton.

And he got pole over Cheatmacher cheating with traction control everytime in 1994.
Schumacher got lucky Senna died because he was going to be exposed much earlier in his career
>>68150835
He won one championship and lost the other, and he outqualified prost by 1.2 (or 1.4) seconds in Monaco in 89 i think... thats almost impossible
>>68140801
>>68150960
Like I said, I personally agree with you that Senna is the GOAT, but in '88 Senna scored 94 points to Prost's 105, he only won because of the way drivers were able to drop some of their worst results. It's comparable to if Nico had won the championship in 2014 by getting double points in Abu Dhabi.
Obviously he was indisputable (except maybe Clark) greatest of ALL TIME when it came to qualifying, which is a big part of why he's my bet for the best of all.

Perhaps when Gaius Appuleius Diocles was busy winning his 1,462 races out of 4,257 starts. Scorpus fans probably still called him a chariot baby, though.

Senna
>better qualifier FACT
>crazier pusher (this is the only area where Schumi has an advantage, consistency vs crazy pace)
>even more of a shameless cunt on track than Schumi ever was
>>68163466
I agree that Senna was better on the Saturdays, but Schumi was quicker on race pace, IMO. As for crazy pushing, Schumacher was a beast - races like Hungary '98 prove that.
Luca di Montezemolo always praised Schumi (even in the Alonso years) as being "a war-machine, able to drive a full race of qualifying laps".
He was also in the Prost mould in that he could push hard without destroying his tyres, brakes and engine, so that, to me, gives Schumacher another edge over a whole season.
Fitness-wise Schumacher was an absolute beast, and I think it's fair to say that he had Senna rattled over '92-'93 to the extent that Senna saw him as a bigger threat than Prost and Mansell (as per Jo Ramirez).
On the psychological side of things, if Schu could upset Senna mentally, that would give him a bit of an advantage, like Senna managed over Prost.
Plus, Senna split two seasons at McLaren 1-1 with Prost, who by his own admission (in '85, so can't be accused of making any excuses), drove at 95% after 1982.

>russell phillips
wew
>Phillips, whose upper body was ground like a pulp against the track's steel catch fence and a caution light fixture at high speed, was both partially dismembered and decapitated, in what a photographer on-scene described as "as gruesome a wreck as I can ever recall". In video of the accident, the roof first impact on the turn 4 wall instantly killed Phillips when his head was ripped off of his body leaving him decapitated, both of his hands were cut off, his torso became completely disintegrated and half of his scrotum was ripped off. Footage from the infield of turn 4 captured his head, with his helmet on, rolling down the embankment of turn 4. In the aftermath of the accident, the first rescuer on scene could be seen running to the car with a fire extinguisher putting out any of the smoke he saw in the car, then immediately turning away from the wreck after seeing Phillips' body and realizing the hopelessness of any attempt at resuscitation. The track was littered with car debris, blood, and numerous body parts, necessitating a complete and lengthy red flag while track officials wearing surgical gloves placed white sheets over various body parts and carried them off the track in the vicinity of the crash. The driver's head (still wearing his helmet) was found at the entrance of the pit road, and one of his hands was found suspended in the retaining fence. Phillips accident became completely reminiscent to the fatal crash of Gordon Smiley during qualifying for the 1982 Indianapolis 500 when his car slammed the wall nose first at 200 mph, shattering the car, partially decapitating him by ripping the helmet and half of his head off the body and breaking every bone in his body, killing Smiley instantly.

That's pretty adorable
post lesser-known but brilliant circuits
>>68166507
What makes a circuit brilliant anyway?
What's the best and worst circuit on the F1 calendar and why?
I know you all like to shit on Tilke but I have no idea why.
>>68166507
Mugello?

More turns, less? Less and more elevation change?

>What makes a circuit brilliant anyway?
A good mix of corner types (high speed, low speed, chicanes, esses, hairpins etc), no awkward corners/sequences (e.g. new bus stop, Monza 1st chicane, China turn 1), not having the same/very similar corners multiple times in the same track (Hungary, Singapore, Sochi, Baku etc), few 90 degree corners, having elevation change is always a plus.
Corners like Bahrain turn 9/10, Copse, Spoon and Brooklands that challenge drivers by tempting them into taking too much speed into it, as well as causing them to lock their brakes if they aren't on the ideal racing line, are well-liked by the drivers too.
>What's the best and worst circuit on the F1 calendar and why?
The "best" and "worst" are pretty subjective as every driver and fan has differing tastes, but Suzuka, Montreal, Silverstone and Interlagos are all held in high regard by pretty much everyone. Interlagos is a bit repetitive, but has plenty of elevation change and challenging corners to make up for it. On the worse side are tracks like Singapore, Abu Dhabi, Shanghai and Sochi which have many repetitive corners or 90 degree turns, zero elevation change (which makes dull corners even duller), miles of runoff so a driver can go wide without penalty, and long straights into really slow corners, which is bad for racing as it spreads the field out (the "accordion effect", as Martin Brundle puts it).
>I know you all like to shit on Tilke but I have no idea why.
Tilke gets a bad rap because of the reasons I listed above. but mostly those reasons due to restrictions placed on him by the FIA (who want muh safety at all costs) and the promoters (who have a fixed idea of what circuit they want and want Tilke to deviate from it as little as possible). He could definitely make his tracks more exciting but they're not all as awful as they're made out to be. Some like Bahrain, Hockenheim, Istanbul and Malaysia are good tracks in their own right.
>>68166545
Sorry for the essay, anyway. To expand on Tilke criticisms, a lot of people think he butchered Hockenheim (but that was down to the promoter who wanted a more compact venue with better spectator viewing) and the regional government who forced them to replant every tree they tore down. Same goes for Austria, where he had to shorten the track because the old circuit was a deathtrap.

Actually explains a lot, thanks m8
What about this year's F1 game?
Is it gon b gud or just same procedure as every year, James?
Last I heard someone said they were listening closely to fan suggestions and so forth but I don't know if it's true or shilling.
>>68166774
Apparently they invited some 'big' Youtube gamers that play F1 a lot to give feedback on F1 2016. I think most of them were pleased with what they have been shown.
They are also doing a closed beta soon so maybe we'll hear some more about the current state of the game.
I know a proper career mode is back and they added the safety car which is pretty neat.

Also I have to say using Japanese circuits is frankly cheating.
>>68167030
You don't a weird feeling hooking up with your sister's friend? My sister brings her friends home all the time, but when I think about them my sister's friend they kind of turn in to a child for me. So I'm never really attracted to them.

>>68167107
You are meant to fuck your sister and her friend so that everyone gets to know each other and all the weirdness is left at the door.
Of course it is going to be weird without her there for moral support.

Started messing around with this girl from work but found out she's the same age as my younger brother, felt a bit wrong.
>>68167107
Doesn't feel weird at all, especially not the ones that are openly flirty with me, and my sister doesn't make it an issue either. One of 'm I particularly like and we """dated"" a couple of times; ie. hung out with one another.

Also Charade, our French Nordschleife, somehow...

the original circuit was GOAT, and along with Bremgarten, one of the most forgotten old high speed road circuits.
Guys, what if Schumacher actually recovered, but they can't reveal it because he's the Stig?
