Another note. Cars these days are likely best driven with the machine holding the limit of adhesion rather than the driver... I would guess thats why hes got steering lock all the way to exit but still under power. I would have expected to see him reeling out of steering as the rear drove the car to exit, which is…

Anyone else feel like hes turning in early? Not sure why but every turn I get the sense. Is that how these new hypercars like to be driven?
Lap time about a second slower than a p1, wish I could see that lap to compare driving styles.

Seems genetic? Father shames daughter, daughter shames father.... only problem is shes a child and doesn’t get to live to watch his lifetime of shame... if he bothers to live it. Then again no one would blame him for wanting a way out from this shame.

Why are stoppies stupid again? It seems like it may be another ‘show off’ of someones keen vehicle control? But I do get a NIMBY vibe, I don’t want stuntaz tearing up the streets, but I can be entertained by it in exhibition, or sport? Trials anyone?

I can’t think of an area besides his steel rear subframe that is conventional. Can you? Maybe the overall design theory is conventional but in almost every area of development from engine, to wheels, to tub all include some very interesting technologies, some being manufacturing technologies so they are not…

My mind instantly pictured two Dolphins in gear like those Russian seals.

Came by to see a comment section of ‘Enthusiasts’ more interested in what others think of their cars then their own two hands and feet. Was not disappointed.

You have my attention. I will do some digging. Thanks!

Before you do hit me up I will give you a coupon code. Also I have some choice BMW stuff I have not put up, cause i’m a fanboi myself.

This is a prime example of merging two cool things and ending up with bullshit... but how else do you sell oil?

I’m holding that magazine. I sell vintage magazine ads to fund my car addiction... I can hook you up with this PS since I have a few copies. Shoot me an email me@mrmecanique.com

I had to google modern to make sure I wasn’t completely off the wall. I then realized you were. For me the ultimate in modernity would be something which is far more presently applicable. The Golf was modern, the Miata was modern, the Shelby Cobra was modern, the i8 may be modern, and maybe the Supra Turbo was…

Dont’ be such an Annehog.

Punitive is what comes to mind when comparing action and reaction, but that’s none of my business.

If you watched any of the FP you would have seen a brake failure very similar to the one that happened in the race. A lockup and non recovery and then park.

Initially I thought this was an easy out for Alonso in an under performing car but then when you consider the problem looked identical to the one seen in practice…

This was a team mistake which Lewis politely acknowledged which was confirmed immediately after the race by Wolff and Lauda. If you didn’t see that story clearly then download the sky sports broadcast and watch the post race coverage. He was hugely disappointed to the point of being ill tempered but wasn’t rude even…

Anyone remember that ‘skeletal’ early picture of the bodywork mounts. Those might need replacement now. Big fan this project!

It should stand to reason that if you don’t know why you NEED rwd then you probably don’t NEED it.... hint. you can drive a car sideways, and once you know that, then you need that.

To the rest of you, why do I care what understeering car you buy, just drive careful and buy new tires when you need them. The most…

I imagine we would all be moaning less if they were destroyed playing soccer on top gear but instead they were used as a promotional stunt showcasing very little of the cars abilities and a whole lot of some talented gymnasts. Impressive yes, but save it for a ‘cute’ model and keep Abarth legit... baby lambo.

Expected interesting philosophical discussion on computers deciding between each other who dies, got BMW jokes.

Not disappointed.
