Canada GP was boring af, fell asleep half way through and woke up in rage as SHAM was first.
How come tracks like Albert Park and Montreal are allowed tyre barriers, whereas newer tracks like Baku and Singapore must have those shitty plastic barriers?

My girlfriend is a fan of Bieber's music and ever since the fag showed up at Monaco, she's been trying to know more about F1. I told her that Bieber's not actually into the sport, but is just friends with Hamilton. After 2 weeks of some research, she decided that Hamilton's pretty cool and she wants to see him race, so I told her to watch Canada hoping that he'd do shit so she won't start supporting him.
Lo and behold the nigger won and now she's sending me screenshots of Bieber's instagram congratulating "HIS BRO". I tried to convince her that it's all the car but she's not buying it cause she saw fucking Cuckberg doing shit and spinning in the same car, so she concludes that Hamilton is pretty great and she's looking forward for the next race.
How do I stop her from getting blacked? I'm sure she's not going to continue following the sport after Hamilton retires or dies anyway (which will probably happen next year) and she doesn't give a shit about Rio (like most people).
Just watched the race and what the fuck was Ferrari thinking with the 2 stop strategy? Were they counting on the VSC? Also, is it just me or was Bottas really uncomfortable with being in the spotlight?

Even if I hate him, I see why people like him. Before the Canada GP, while everyone else was talking about the race or the car or whatever, Hamilton was saying how much he loves Montreal and how #blessed he is. He's a fake attention whore, but if you can't see through the facade you might think he's just some guy who loves his fans and wants to put on a show

The plastic barriers are called tecpro and are better in situations where there's not much room like Monaco, Singapore, etc. They're not forced to have them, it's just more efficient in tight circuits. Albert Park and Montreal are much roomier than the other street circuits so can afford to have tyre barriers which take up significantly more space.

Baku is almost certainly going to end up cucked by fuel saving.
Just about every team was on the limit of fuel saving in Canada and learning from last year, I don't think any of them underfueled or anything so they had a maximum load. If Canada was a problem with fuel, Baku is going to be even worse.
THERE IS A TWO KILOMETER FLAT OUT SECTION. The whole track is quite fast anyway. Apparently the turns after the narrow section and before the straight are going to all be flat anyway. So literally half the lap going flat out. It's going to be so bad for the fuel.
>>68412227
I really want someone to run out of fuel during the race for maximum shamepoints
>>68412227

This whole baku track just looks extremely dull and the cars will be entirely reliant on aero and engine. In other words its an easy MWL, especially with the ripple effect on turn 1.

Euros are on
What do you lads consider to be "Europe"? I see a lot of complaints that Azerbaijan is not Europe, but it actually is partly (north) in geographical Europe.
In the south, I always draw the euroborder on the right side of Greece and Ukraine and on the west side of the Russia border, despite knowing full well the western side of Russia is considered to be Europe.
>>68413144

>>68414768

This also technically would qualify Sochi as geographically "Asian", as it's on the southern face of the Caucasus Mountains.
Sochi is a moot point as it's still in Russia and is called as such for its GP.

Seriously, what the fuck is this?
What the actual fuck?
>>68424468
>implying the middle east isn't rightful european clay
>>68422475
Unfortunately no. The psychological game is real. Ham is fucked if he doesn't win, especially if he loses a lot in a row. But if he gets 1 win under his belt he is suddenly amazing again, and Rosberg has no answer. I have no idea how that works.
Rosberg has effectively choked away a lead that another driver could have sustained well into the year, in the best car on the grid, with no mechanical failures.
Rosberg is beaten now. I don't think he will come back from this. He didn't even seem to sure of himself when he won those races in a row, and he seems less confident than ever now.
This is coming from someone who REALLY doesn't want to see Hamilton win anything ever again, but it's just inevitable. Rosberg is too beta, he is not championship material, he just doesn't have that fighter spirit that you see in people like Alonso, Hamilton, even carbabby Vettel. Or maybe he has that spirit, but it just does nothing for him on track. You rarely see Rosberg driving like a madman, like on a huge charge just not giving a fuck. You could see that in Vettel on sunday and Hamilton, Ricciardo etc in previous races. Just the eternal beta and he will never win a championship unless he gets some shitty no. 2 to team order for him
>williams
>>68424570
i've noticed that rosberg panics under pressure and is quick to back off and let people get the advantage and pass him. he doesn't seem to have the racing instincts that most of the other drivers have.
>>68424658
dunno why rosberg didn't just sit behind hamilton into t1, stick with him as hamilton tends to struggle on lap1+2, especially when the merc can't heat up tyres, then pass him on the long straight
>>68424658
I have no idea why. He is a great qualifier and occasionally a great racer. He is fast, even shows aggression sometimes. But when Hamilton beats him, he gets destroyed and has a hard time coming back from it.
He's not even like Webber-tier shit, he just chokes constantly for no real reason except he seems to be afraid of Hamilton.
Could Tom Brady race Formula 1 or is he too tall?
>>68424750
He literally said in a post-race interview that he had to try something because if he didn't he would be stuck behind him for the whole race. There might be some truth to that, but I don't know. Mercedes suffers more than most others when they're in dirty air I guess he remembered last year where he was stuck behind Hamilton for the whole race.
His move was a bit retarded though because it was reliant on Hamilton giving him room (when he is not legally required to do so), so what do you think is going to happen? The turn is so tight as well that its not really comparable to the sweet move he pulled in Spain T1. I get that he tries to be aggressive but you can't expect Hamilton to not run him off considering Hamilton has done that like 10 times already and Nico did it to Lewis a few times this season as well.
>>68424750
prolly because Hamilton cucked him a few times before and now he decided not to give in anymore.
>>68424975
then he should have settled for 2nd/3rd, he still had a what 26 point lead in the championship going into the race? as you said he was always going to be run out and forced off the track and rather than sticking in 3rd he fell to 9th or whatever, that is some serious lack of thinking
>>68424866
>look up how tall he is
>i'm even taller
just puts it in perspective even more just how short the drivers are
>>68425051
well good job to nico, now his points gap has gone down even more because he didn't want to give in
>>68424658
>>68424750
>>68424844
i feel like hamilton intentionally used the "psychological advantage" of the spain crash to unsettle rosberg, and going into monaco rosberg was buemi-ing it hard and panicking because he no longer had his 7 race momentum
>>68425200
that's so stupid, not what youre saying but rosberg getting unsettled by less races for hamilton to close the gap with the gap staying the same, for fucks sake rosberg

Bottas to McLaren?
>>68426396
bottas to mercedes
You know, there's so much shitting on Honda but I think McLaren's biggest problem right now is their chassis is SO FUCKING DRAGGY. Prodromou is out of his depth and copies Merc/RB for one upgrade package, decides it doesn't work with the rest of the chassis, tries his own thing that works even less so copies Merc/RB again and so on and so forth. And the few upgrades that are kept add half of the downforce they want for twice the drag.
It's the only fucking explanation for them being so dire even at the downforce-dependant circuits of Spain and Monaco

Rosberg has the natural ability to lose.
Kimi actively seeks to lose.
Bottas merely lacks the natural ability to win.
>>68426997
why do you think rosberg is choking now? his finnish genes are kicking in
>>68425414

that is awful, awful bait and you know it.
>>68427862
rosberg is the supreme gentleman
>>68427862
it's not
if you think Rosberg is some modern-day Prost you're dead wrong
The evidence:
>married a 5/10 when he can get 9/10s wet between the legs
>gets paid half what Hamilton does
>again and again he tries to go around the outside of Hamilton into turn one and gets forced off the road
>tried to do it to Hamilton and Hamilton simply drove into him and came off looking like the good guy
>got very angry when a #2 cap was thrown at him in jest

The problem with Bottas is that he doesn't beat Massa convincingly enough. Massa got absolutely destroyed by Alonso but is sometimes even faster than Bottas. Bottas is a good driver but not special.
>>68431007
does he really need to though? cheeky nando has proven to be one of the best drivers of our generation.
the valt doesn't need to be completely at nando's level to win a title, imo.
http://f1.channel4.com/video/had-two-goldfish-berger-and-alesi-lee-mckenzie/
Seb is so cheeky I love it
Lee brings out the best in every driver
>>68431109
>the valt doesn't need to be completely at nando's level to win a title, imo.
I think that Hülkenberg, Perez, Grosjean and Verstappen (for now) are at least on the same level as him. For me personally he has to stand out more to deserve a title.
>>68431109
Considering how strong the current field of drivers is - and will be in the foreseeable future - he should be an absolute top driver. Even Alonso didn't win a title in 10 years now. Bottas should have a nice F1 career in front of him but I don't see a title desu. In the next 5 years we will still have Ham, Vet, Ric, Ves and possibly Alo and Ros fighting at the top. Not much space for a really good driver.

Wtf is going on with McLaren? Ron Dennis has autism yes, but he has been the team principal through several different eras of McLaren excellence. The car is a piece of shit still. Getting into Q3 is not something to celebrate.
>shit engine (solid 10-15 kmh down on long straights)
>shit engine uses more fuel
>shit engine/shit chassis destroy tires faster
>shit engine still blows up
>MAYBE the 5th best chassis on the grid
>""really great in slow corners"" which still leaves them nowhere near the front and theres like 3 tracks where this might translate into a semi-reasonable advantage
I don't even buy their bullshit about their chassis being great. Nothing indicates that their problems is only due to the engine. Red Bull had a shit engine last year and their car still performed. 2016 Honda is comparable to 2015 Renault, if not better and McLaren are still fucking horrible. Why the fuck didn't they just get Honda on board from the beginning? Makes no sense to get a Merc engine, be shit anyway and then declare oh you cant win a title being a customer and shit on a decades long partnership to fuck around with some nips who have no idea what theyre doing
Button will retire at the end of this season, maybe even voluntarily and Alonso will never win a race again.
>>68434568
>and Alonso will never win a race again.
nah I think he has one last victory in him. Something crazy, perhaps in Brazil similar to Button in Canada 2011.
Otherwise yeah McLarn a total shit. In bahrain they already said they have the best chassis although "it ate the rear tires" (literal quote). Yeah nice work McLaren with your number one tire shredding, unreliable, slow, thirsty and rough car/engine.

I thought Rory Byrne came out of retirement to consult for Ferrari?
Plus Aldo Costa at Merc (and before that at Ferrari) has a bretty good track record.
Anyway, that just proves my point, that Ron Benis wasn't necessarily the key to that success, unless you count the fact that the designers agreed to work for him in the first place.
Additionally, his autism aggravated all of them until they decided to bugger off
>>68448728

The only one of those worth playing is F12013 Classic Edition. Not worth paying that much for tho, I got it used from a store for like 1/3rd of that
Cars are slow as fuck and the games look really ugly in 2014 and 2015. 2013 is so far the pinnacle and actually has good sounding engines, plus it has tracks that will never be featured on an F1 game again, like Korea and India. Also Classics edition has Brands Hatch which is probably the greatest thing to drive in a modern F1 car

He has a major design credit in Ferraris from 2004-2010, and was Rory Byrne's assistant from 1998 onward.
They won WDC in 2004 and 2007, and WCC in 2004,07 and '08. Also took the WDC to the last race in 2006,2008 and 2010.
If the Ferrari had better drivers in 07 and 08, those years could have been washouts much like the early 2000s. Sadly, they only had Gimi and Felipe

They would have implemented animal crossing zones as soon as next season.
Drivers must limit their speed to 30km/h in those crossing zones, and avoid every animal longer than 5cm or wider than 3cm. If a driver does hit an animal they get a 5s penalty and have to clean the animal guts of their halo/aeroscreen themselves with water and a standardized soap and sponge on the next pit stop.

To be fair, winning as many races in a row as your once highly regarded teammate did in his entire career would do that to you.

Now he is the most based.

People seem to forget that Max was racing carts less than 4 years ago and just by that metric, combined with his age, should have no business being anywhere close to a race seat for the next 5 years or so. He is in his second season of F1 and now in his 4th race for a big team with big pressures. He is literally still in the zone of "mistakes are acceptable", yet he is not even badly off the pace of Ricciardo and seemingly somewhat equal in terms of race pace.
Ricciardo is now a great driver, but he's already "done his growing". He wasn't anything spectacular in Toro Rosso but really proved himself against Vettel and from there on grew to be a consistent upper quartile driver in the current field. Max is just out of being a rookie and is still the youngest person to race an F1 car, meaning he still has the time and potential to become better. Whether he can actually become better is another story, but the point is that he is already a good driver with potential to become even better, whereas it's hard to see Ricciardo become any better than he already even is.
At any rate the Ricciardo/Verstappen pairing is probably the most interesting on the grid right now and whoever ends up beating the other will probably be regarded as a true top-tier driver by everyone who matters.
who Le Mans this weekend? Baku will be another MWL

>implying tempering expectations puts you on the anti-Amx force
Ricky has been better at qualy than max and seems to be on form. Which is why I posted this semon demon >>68457126, just wish she had nudes floating around somewhere.
>>68458465
I might be going down to the lake this weekend, Ill watch another time.
>>68458479
Why would such a pure maiden take naked pictures of herself, let alone post them on the internet?
Not everyone is a whore who just wants to fuck chads and post revealing pics on the internet! Believe it or not but there are some decent people left in the world!!
>>68458222
but how is a literal 17 year old racing in F1 fair to the hundreds of other drivers that came before him? fast-tracking talent into the pinnacle of motorsport seems like a bad idea for the sake of posterity. it sets the precedent that anyone of any age can race in F1 as long as they have the money and support to do so. F1 should harbor the best talent from every part of the world, not just whoever can buy their way into the sport.
we'll see in due time that max is not as good as everyone says he is, and guess what's the first thing everyone will be saying? "i fucking told you so. he's too young and inexperienced for F1"
>>68458465
Just watch both.
Baku is 2 hrs tops and Le Mans is 24. Assuming the start or finish don't coincide with Baku then there's no real point. I get Le Mans is prestigious and difficult but it is not that exciting to watch. Last year in particular, almost nothing happened. And by nothing I mean no real extensive racing for position in the LMP1 category and really not even that many spectacular crashes or incidents in general. Of course every race is different but if anything cool ends up happening they'll show it 100 times and have a recap of what has happened
And I even watch WEC. It's just that the 6 hr races have often been much more interesting and intense than the Le Mans, e.g. Spa 2016, Silverstone 2015
inb4 someone calls me a f1 babby because WEC is supposed to "be boring and slow on purpose"
Or you know just have Le Mans running on a 2nd screen on mute/low volume like a normal person
>>68458693
It's not fair I agree. He would have been much better off with another year in GP2 or something at the very least. But being a 17 year old YOUNGEST EVER makes the headlines and it is more publicity for the sport so Bernie probably endorsed it. And I'm sure the people at Red Bull saw something in him that made them convinced of his skill.
Plus I'm guessing Jos invested quite a bit of money to make this happen.
We don't know how well he handles the big pressures (fighting for a title) but so far, I think he has shown that he is actually the "real deal" and his joining of F1 was not hugely premature. If Vandoorne has a season like Vertappen did when he eventually gets to F1, people will call him a great success. If Palmer did a few moves like Max did then people would be calling him a good racer. Point being is that Max already exceeded expectations and had a rough but impressive first season. Everyone expected him to choke or be immature but he is racing with better confidence and brains than many experienced drivers (see vs. Rosberg).
Also F1 has literally never been about merit alone. It's almost always a combination of right place right time, right connections, right sponsors and right results. The only person who made it to F1 off the top of my head without any significant backing, and basically on merit alone was Gimi and even that was rare in his era and practically impossible in current era
>>68458693
>F1 should harbor the best talent from every part of the world, not just whoever can buy their way into the sport.
Max isn't paying for his seat, unlike several other drivers on the grid. He's there because Red Bull are banking on him being the next big thing, which he has done a pretty good job so far of living up to. Do I care? No, I'm not a big amdamx fan but I also don't dislike him.
>but how is a literal 17 year old racing in F1 fair to the hundreds of other drivers that came before him?
If some 15 year old jumps straight into F1 and starts getting poles and winning races why should that upset you? A seat in F1 isn't necessarily earned by paying your dues and working your way up the ladder, that's how we get drivers like Joe, Lee, & Palmer and Fat John.
>>68455469
my fucking dick
>>68458693
There's no such thing as fair when it comes to who gets a seat in motoracing. How was it fair that an over-30 son of Venezuelan big dog raced for several years just by dropping 30 million of bongdollars on Williams and Enstone's laps?

I wouldn't actually worry about whether you're serious or not if the north weren't so fucked up lately.
>you now realize all the changes to sporting regulations from the recent two years are utter shit
>>68460172
>you now realize that F1 is actually shit and every race that miraculously doesn't have a Mercedes leading/winning is immediately glorified as a great race just because Mercedes isn't winning for once
>you now realize that F1 has been progressively getting worse for the whole of the 2000's and is never going to get much better
>you now realize that FIA will rather let F1 go bankrupt than admit that they have made numerous colossal mistakes that affect the quality, excitement and viewership of the sport
>you now realize that the people in charge of making decisions in F1 don't give half a shit about the historical heritage of the sport and would happily drop tracks like Spa if they got better offers from Tilkedromes in the middle of a desert (or if more of these tracks existed in general)
>you now realize that F1 will eventually be purchased by oil arabs or the Chinese
>>68460413
Actually, I'd say that the whole thing started to go to shit exactly in 2009.
They started using too much SC in the wet, removing gravel traps and neutering and dropping older European tracks.
They also brought in regulations that made F1 impossible to do on smaller budgets just to appease the manufacturers (who left anyway).
Slightly related is Willem Toet's newest piece, in which he complains about manufacturer appeasement being the wrong path to take : https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/mysteries-formula-1-double-diffusers-willem-toet?articleId=6148388576422825984#comments-6148388576422825984&trk=prof-post
I just enjoy it for what it is. Not like I can change it anyway.
Should time time come where I'm so fed up with it I want to stop watching it altogether, then so be it.
lolhamiltonwins > lolvettelwins
>>68462917
das rasict
>>68462917
no lad. i'd take vwl over hwl right now. hamilton is such a fake person, it's unreal. coupled with sky's worship, it's not fun to watch.
plus vettel has vastly matured as a person - hamilton has regressed.
>>68462917
"no"
Only 2011 and the last half 2013 sucked. At least it wasn't 3 FUCKING YEARS of one team on pole, one team winning the race unless someone colossally fucks up, combined with the vain hope that a cucked choker will for once not choke, leading to constant disappointment and apathy after every race.
I still love F1 but this shit needs to stop, as does people legitimately thinking that this shit is okay, that Hamilton is deserving of becoming the 2nd most successful driver in history, and that disliking him because he's a fag 90% is just being a hater/racist.
>>68463126
He didn't have a slightest sniff at another title for 2.5 years, though. Switch Mercedes and Ferrari pace around and you'd be looking at the same dickhead as in 2013.
>>68462917
>>68463126
It's not even HWL, its MWL
2013 was painful yes but the other seasons were fine and at least the Red Bull wasn't 100% indestructible second clear off the rest in every single race
MWL is the most dominant era in the history of F1 and they aren't even a likable team and there's no real rivalry between the drivers, both of whom are now PR drones so theres absolutely nothing to get excited about
>>68463245
>Only 2011 and the last half 2013 sucked.
This, other teams were at least competitive during VWL and challenged them. With MWL, even when Mercedes fuck up or aren't as quick, they still fucking win.
>>68463265
not necessarily - at least ring a ding ding is no more.
>>68463304
this too, but hwl plays a part in it for me.
i cannot believe mercedes are more souless than mclelren. i am so tired of cucko, manlet, and senile elderly fan downplaying mwl EVERY race weekend.
>>68463462
>at least ring a ding ding is no more
And out of tune Italian opera or whatnot is better?
Ring a ding ding was out of boredom, since then he's had, like, 3 occasions to celebrate.
>>68463462
At least their eventual BTFOing is going to be the sweetest release ever.
VWL not happening anymore wasn't even that big of a deal really. I will bask in the glory of Merc being 3-5th on a consistent basis for a long time though.
>>68464004
I wonder if Mercedes have put any thought into the fact that a large portion of the viewers of sport they have invested heavily into for advertising purposes have wound up hating them; whether this is something they have thought of or consider resulting in a possible loss of sales/appreciation of the brand. Or if this doesn't actually have any effect and isn't worth working out.

Finally I can confirm I really saw that running kid dropping and rolling on the asphalt during the constructor anthem. Left side, green jacket. 1:48:18

Have you forgotten Wobbler? Admittedly he was cucked more due to Marko than himself, but he was cucked pretty hard post 2010
>>68464235
Just picking up some marbles to meet the height and weight requirements.
apparently this was the original proposal for circuit gilles villeneuve
would've been fucking insane
>>68464265
After 2010 and especially after 2011 there was no hope that he would actually challenge. I didn't go into the weekend thinking "wow, Webber might actually get pole!" or "Webber might actually convert his pole into a win!". It was going to be Vettel or another team.
With Nico sometimes I actually find the hope that he will get pole, or will get the win, and sometimes he does, which is always a relief. But the majority of the time, particularly last year, it just ends in disappointment. It's made worse by the fact that, while I like Rosberg, I wouldn't be cheering for him, but he's literally the only option for a win.
>>68464486
Looks pretty typical for the oldschool power circuits.

yes, but they would have abandoned it long ago because of muh safety

here's the proposed Formula E car for (i think) season 5
nose is too wide imo and the covered wheels are meh
>>68473174
Looks like a Caparo T1
>>68473174
Why not just have them as prototype style cars? That picture's halfway there already
>>68473238
I don't understand why they wouldn't just take an LMP1 car and strip all the downforce off instead of trying to create an open-closed wheel hybrid if they just want zero drag desu
>>68473351
>>68473312
At the moment FE is more of a spec series rather than an open but regulated series.
Otherwise they would look kinda similar I'd say.
Some of guys are alright
Don't go to baku on the weekend
>>68473820
Portugal... what are you planning? Should I avoid the gay bar?
>>68473820
No Portugal, calm down. Besides it's not really Yurope, so what is there to accomplish there?
>>68473174
Closed cockpits will kill this fucking sport
t. luddite who's seen every race since Suzuka 1998, apart from one or two
>>68473820
Calm down Pedro Henrique.
But if you are going to do anything, make sure to take both Nico and Lewis down with you.
>>68473901
just avoid baku in general
>>68473952
Really calm here mate
>>68473991
I will kill every one of them
Except for Massa
He's kinda cool
>>68473962
Closed cockpits don't bother me as much as closed wheels. Which is saying a lot because closed cockpits are quite bothersome to me
