Continuing to hold that minority equity interest in the commercial rights entity of a series the FIA regulates would represent a far more egregious conflict of interest than approving the sale does. Read more

Not supporting Fisichella’s actions, but I’m surprised nobody has lost their shit sooner on Porsche for the array of stupid things they’ve done to their competitors on track. I’m more surprised IMSA hasn’t really taken any of their driver’s actions into account considering they’ve taken out a direct competitor in at…
Seems like a typical move this season from the 912 & 911. They have made so many questionable moves this season that have resulted in others getting spun/wrecked. Read more
Well yeah, but you have to keep in mind that it’s just what’s expected of him. Egyptians getting their asses handed to them by Israelis is just one of those traditions that’s been passed down from father to son for decades. Millennia, depending on your theology. Read more
The problem with today's world is that it's almost impossible to distinguish what's satire. Read more
Goddamn O’Bummer so worried about taking our guns away, that he’s letting China land planes on islands! Read more
IMO they are wrong. Nonetheless, if you don't like the way a stock 914 looks, you probably don't like this either. Read more
CP. This looks like fried hell. For that price you can get a clean stock 914, that A: doesn't look like shit, and B: will actually go up in value. Read more
That’s the beautiful part— if China moved against Taiwan, they’d ultimately lose. Sure, they’d probably be able to take the island eventually, but not until they've suffered major military loses, and a complete loss of credibility internationally for well over a generation. Neighbors would now scoff at Chinese… Read more
Aside from Bernie’s completely overpriced nonsense, the state isn’t paying just for the F1 race, it’s an investment into the state. That F1 race may cost them $25M, but it could bring back $500M to the state from visitors, hotels, restaurants, shops, etc and their sales taxes. If sales tax is 10%, $500M equates to… Read more

High frequency data logging has directly and indirectly helped create dampers, tires, and chassis/setups that are faster. You could say in the past a lot of power was wasted on the show, but I say efficiency is beautiful. Read more

Lauda still has the answer:
Per a comment on another site: Clearly visible on the front bumper: a DRS1000 doppler-effect ground speed radar, in addition to the optical speed/slip-angle sensor (the light spot on the ground at the front). Gathering tons of slip data hehe... Read more
It looks like a ride height sensor, or possibly a yaw angle sensor. Read more
Isn’t the AWD in a modern rally car significantly dumbed down from what it was a few years ago? I recall active diffs getting banned and a spec drivetrain getting introduced.

Generally they are faster because of the advances in handling. Just less bombastic. Read more
I'd rather have a phone with only an e-ink display so that it lasts for days. Read more
