    Looks like a couple of Accord coupes to me.

    Claire isn’t the problem. Frank and everyone who was on top (Patrick Head, etc.) that led to Williams’ 30 year decline is the problem.

    Seiko 5s have their place, which is to provide affordable automatics, but these do break that role. That said, this really does bring up my disappointment with how what should have been an SKX upgrade (finally moving to a new movement, instead of the 7S26), isn’t really.

    But not for their limited edition licensed stuff. The Monster Hunter World watches that came out last year were around 500 to 600 a piece, and those weren’t even automatic.

    Considering that it’ll need a complete engine rebuild after just 50,000 km...

    Different beasts. A modern F1 engine is designed with tolerances so tight that it needs hot water pumped into it overnight just to un-seize it.

    To bad it still looks like a game about discount Avengers cosplay.

    Reverse races can’t happen without major changes to the track because track configurations are given FIA grading only for one direction.

    Liberty seem to be afraid to do anything to blatant. Back in Max and Bernie’s day, they were more willing to do obvious handicap rules changes (e.g. 2005 tyre rules that were meant o hamstring the Bridgestone teams).

    Or they could just stop racing at the same circuit they test on, one that’s known for having only 1 1/2 normal overtaking spots (unless your name is Alex Albon).

    Barcelona’s problems can be solved mostly by changing two things, the final complex and turn one. Both need to be slowed down some more—turn 1 to make it an actual hard braking zone, and the final complex to make it’s entry into the main straight not be an aero-limited corner that prevents drivers from setting up on

    Barcelona’s problems come from a number of factors. Most obvious is the fact that it’s also the primary test track, so teams have a ton of data on it. The other is that the track itself works better as a test track for single laps than for actual racing. The same combination of low, medium and high speed corners

    It almost feels like David is pulling a Doug Demuro and going over the van’s quirks and features.

    “Next Season?” The new season isn’t done. This is still part of Season 3.

    Worth it just to see modern F1 cars going around turn 8 at Istanbul again.

    The producers need to learn to pick better for topics for the episode. Some of the stuff feels outright manufactured, for example, the “rivalry” between Sainz and Ricciardo in episode 1, which wasn’t really a thing at all.

    As someone mentioned in another post, USB flash drives are highly unsecure since they basically have a small computer inside them that can be made to lie about what it is and do a lot of other things. Not that much of an issue with discs.

    And it’ll be tied to a system that requires it to check in with Microsoft every 24 hours.
