Kelly Olynyk looks like a vegan Bobby Jenks

Nick Heidfeld drove a BMW-Sauber F1.06 around the Nordschleife in 2007. It was largely a publicity exercise and he slowed down for photos several times per lap. Road & Track did an estimation by measuring cornering speeds and extrapolated that if he had driven flat-out he could have been under 6 minutes. The official…

Rear hatches (on both hatchbacks and crossovers) that have such an extreme rake that they limit cargo space. Are you that afraid of it looking like a wagon that you have to angle the rear glass at 45 degrees?

Does this count as an assist?

The easiest conclusion to jump to is that since Mercedes and Aston Martin have a partnership for road car engines the Aston Martin F1 power unit would be a rebadged Mercedes-AMG power unit. However, that would mean Mercedes would supply its own factory team, plus three other teams (one of which could easily run with…

Not sure it’s the most unpopular, but I hate the interiors on new Mercedes models. Good thing I can’t afford them anyway 🤷‍♀️

I think towards the end they managed to get the beak looking pretty good. So maybe they’ll get this looking good by 2020 and then ditch it.

Is there any way you can give us fewer photos of the TLX? Because...hoo boy they have messed up the front end AGAIN.

What is the efficiency loss going from battery to battery? I imagine you would have to have a battery quadruple the size of an EV battery just to get two full charges [citation needed, not an engineer].

I can see how the stewards chose not to penalize anybody since the Ferraris likely couldn’t see each other through Max’s car. If either one of them had seen what the other was doing this likely wouldn’t have ended in such a spectacular shitstorm. That being said, if you were to apportion blame I don’t see how anyone…

I was a pretty harsh critic of Verstappen’s aggressive driving last year, but to blame him for the incident is laughable. I think if either Ferrari driver knew what the other was doing on the other side of Max they would have driven differently; if Kimi had seen Vettel squeezing Max going into the first corner he…

Low hanging fruit is the sweetest.

Oh no, I totally get that. But for $10k they could have at least put on a show for me to make it seem harder than it was.

I’ve got a piece of equipment at work that we “upgraded” from 30 slots to 60 slots, and the technician just plugged a USB stick into the control station, ran some code, and voila! That cost $10,000.

Wet blanket mode, but didn’t MCA request that none of their music be used for commercial purposes? I can see Star Trek getting to use it, since BB had tons of Star Trek references in their songs, but Destiny 2? I don’t think this would jive with what he wanted. But 🤷🏻‍♂️

“Solid D...”

I’m with you. I rented a Sentra in San Francisco last December and it was dreadful. I think the jump from 2013 to 2014 was the difference between the second and third generation CVT for Subaru. So the 2014 Forester redesign and 2015 Outback redesign have the newest iterations which are supposed to be quite good.
