Surprised you guys haven’t been told to “Stick To Cars”.

And despite your corporate overlords telling you to stick to sports, I hope Deadspin never does because
and I can’t emphasize this enough
I come to Deadspin BECAUSE YOU DON’T JUST STICK TO SPORTS
You missed the point. That one replay cost Oklahoma the game and maybe season, NOT giving up 48 points to Kansas State.
My take: Assembly-line workers can only build the vehicle as well as it’s engineered and parts-sourced.
Chevy didn’t even want the Vega in the first place, their engineers had been working on ideas for their own subcompact, when GM’s corporate engineering staff forced the unfinished Vega project on them and told them to finish that instead.
Fixed!
We all chuckled when Mark McGwire warily muttered “I’m not here to talk about the past” to Congress, but it turns out he was just ahead of his time.
I keep thinking back to how their current ballpark opened as Enron Park, and while they’ve long dissociated themselves from Enron (they had to pay $25 million to remove all the signage and rename the stadium!) but I feel like the “smartest guys in the room” legacy lives on.
The biggest tragedy in all of this is that they probably won’t be able to find another white heterosexual ivy league finance bro to take Taubman’s place.
So basically the Astros front office is like Trump: never back down, never apologize, always attack?
But seriously, Jose Andres is a goddamn saint. He was in Puerto Rico serving over 10,000 a meals a day after Hurricane Maria struck.
Wow. Just wow. I mean it’s like people in power (namely white men) refuse to acknowledge when they are at fault. The entire front office should be fired now. They attempted to smear, intimidate and flat-out discredit a person who simply did her job. This is the epitome of privilege.
This is something Pope Ecclestone probably would have done if he was still in charge. Absurd and head scratching to say the least.
Seems to me that power steering, automatic gearboxes, electronic fuel injection are all driver aids according to the FIA
“I mean, Renault are probably looking over at Honda and thinking it’ll be a net positive.”
Did not know about her anti-McLaren bias....I probably had one too during the Ron Dennis days but goddamn do I love this ‘reinvented’ McLaren.
McLaren’s chassis was bad during Honda’s tenure with them. That much is abundantly clear. I’ll even go so far as to say that some of the engine performance problems were a direct result of shitty restrictions placed upon the engine design by the chassis requirements.
Big props to the stock image website that puts watermarks on photos of literal shit.
15 year old me: Yeah, I can totally fix this.
