They did actually manage to do that exact thing though. Skoda now occupies their mid tier brand space, were VW still had to stretch back in the 90's and very early 2000. VW is now in that position between Skoda, Toyota and Audi, BMW.

If you are talking about US market, they changed their strategy on their lower end cars to be fight to the bottom. Price first. They took Jetta, Passat and cheapened the cars compared to European counterparts.

Pretty much. Jalopnik is essentially the place I’m reminded this thing is happening still. If VW Group was handled like this in Europe they would actually be done for. For now it seems this hasn’t affected their sales much of all around here, if anything they had an record number of cars sold.

I’m not totally sure what that matters? Keke Rosberg was a Finn and Nico is German and Finn national that raced under Finnish flag till around 2003.

You need to remember the software this thing is running. The hardware is also totally different beast to phones. This Tegra SoC is specific for Switch, though we don’t know details of it. There isn’t a phone that could run Zelda or Mario kart 8. Nobody would put that powerful GPU, like found on Switch to a phone.

I don’t really see the logic in that. Steam just pretty much have everything and last thing I would call Steam is overpriced anything.

Darts and snooker I miss the most from my Eurosport cable sub.

There seems to be this strong misconception around some parts of gawker that reddit was pro Trump, while that could not be further from the truth in r/all where Bernie was the darling and Hillary after. Again, of course you could find pro Trump subbreddits. Though, I feel like many people in here don’t quite know what…

Reddit way too big to be put into one category. Reddit being mini internet itself isn’t too far from the truth.

But why couldn’t you watch them if he plaid in Ukraine?

Oh, was it Bengt Holmström? I’ve had honor to attend couple of his lectures in Helsinki university.

He is clearly likes his cars, but how petty can one be to make Ferrari not giving you a car that’s customers are selected such a big public thing?

...and?

Yet it has bigger following and more hours put into it by individuals than any other big release you can name this year. I didn’t know great games are reserved to be story driven single games?

Keke said some years ago they had an agreement with his son to not appear on most races.

Could have not said it better. In the Messi vs Ronaldo discussions Messi is painted as the natural raw talent and Ronaldo as the hard working one. No matter how much of a difference there actually is, it is true that Ronaldo is a total workaholic and the type that will do anything to be the best.

I agree about your main point of Top Gear going too much towards the obviously staged route. Though, Top Ground Gear Force I think wasn’t really a primary example of this as it was part of Sport Relief, BBC’s charity that includes different events and sketches. Top Ground Gear Force was essentially sketch of merging…

There was also that infamous thread about Vicki Butler-Henderson boobs that went on for a long time.

Do the Netflix episodes have the original soundtrack? Example BBC American doesn’t have the original soundtrack from BBC, neither does BBC youtube page.

There are plenty of classic F1 races in rain and I would dare to say by far most them are very entertaining. It’s the time when drivers on poor cars, but great ability in rain suddenly light up. Granted, there’s also the argument of certain cars performing better under heavy rain. So it’s not quite that black and…
