That’s literally directly opposite of what I was suggesting. My point isn’t left vs. right politics. My point is the whole polarization of it all. “If you’re left (or right) you’re a saint, if not you’re going to hell” mentality is the major issue here. Ecclestone has done pretty morally dubious things, doesn’t erase…

Perfect! Blind hatred. Loving it. Keep it up.

Again, I am NOT defending his public actions or his public personality. I literally called him a “reprehensible old dictator with little moral compass.” My opinion is simply predicated on the FACT that Ecclestone is one of, if not the most important influences in terms of building Formula One to what it is today, and…

Truth. The number of people who defended and supported Nico simply because they hated Lewis was absurd. It’s similar to the people who “feel bad” for Bottas being used to support Hamilton’s title bid. They don’t care for Bottas to win, they just don't want Lewis to reap the benefits of a capable and compliant…

Yes, because if I have an opinion that you deem unacceptable, I must be getting paid or am personally a horrible person as well. Isn’t that how your logic works?

All right, this is some trashy and borderline hit-piece reporting. Is Ecclestone a reprehensible old dictator with little moral compass? Sure. But that doesn’t mean everyone should feel that way about him, nor does it mean that anyone that respects him immediately deserves personal attacks.

Oh I totally agree. The aerodynamics are not conducive to close following right now. They have set up a working group to look into what aero package would be least affected by the wake of the car ahead. They are making a number of smaller changes for next year, with a major rules overhaul expected in 2021.

Well to even get within the DRS window, you usually need a .5s or so speed advantage. However, and even then cars struggle to overtake, mainly because the lap time delta is usually made up through corners, and they can't get close enough for a good tow and overspeed on the straight. If both cars had DRS, then they…

“If you vote for a union, you become like every other union and don’t get the advantages or drawbacks there are for working at Tesla.”

I don’t see how it’s a threat though. Its just a statement that you can’t have the best of both worlds. No other unionized auto company does that so why should Tesla? If they want unions, they can be the exact same as other auto companies. Otherwise, they can stick with the Tesla way, with all its benefits and…

I don’t understand the furore around this. Musk says plenty of stuff to get mad about (even earlier today). But this tweet, 3 months ago, is simply a statement that no unionized automaker has stock options as part of compensation, and hence, that would be lost if the Tesla Factory was unionized. I see nothing wrong…

Kimi allegedly got a two (2!!!) year extension from Ferrari. No official news yet, but I expect at least another year at Ferrari for him. After Marchionne’s passing, Ferrari would like to maintain stability. Plus Kimi is doing a damn fine job at the moment.

HAHAHAHA

Then what else is it? Do tell me.

Guy didn’t dump Trump early enough in 2017. That pissed off the left and they still haven’t, nor will ever, forgive him. He could solve world hunger, cure cancer and AIDS, donate all his money and go become a monk and people would still accuse him of doing it for “the spotlight”, or of being a self-centric asshole.

Hey asshat, he actually built a submarine and took it to Thailand. Building shit like that in like 3 days and overnighting it to Thailand ain’t cheap. Sure it was too late, and potentially not useful, but he saw a problem and tried.

Why is everyone so cynical about his attempt to help in Thailand? People were in a flooded cave. Reasonable way to get them out would be a pressure sealed vessel. Guess what else is generally a pressure sealed vessel? Rockets. It made perfect sense to take a crack at it even if it didn’t work. Man, y’all would…

I don’t think anyone is defending the behavior, but rather the company of somehow having to shoulder unabated blame for this dumbass’s actions.

Average startups are also a bunch of computer science hipsters making a program that will organize your apps in a more palatable manner. Not going for full scale production of Electric automobiles (not to mention sustainable production and storage of electricity, something that until solved means EV’s really aren’t…

I feel like something got lost in translation between his thinking in Spanish and his speaking in English (I know thats not how it really works).. Before the press conference he acknowledged how there was only two cars in contention and that they had a little more luck and a honed a better setup so they won.. Theres…
