This looks like a Formula E podium ceremony with people losing consciousness at the sight of Jean-Eric Vergne and André Lotterer.

The only hope is that RBR replaces Checo with a driver that can challenge Max, at least that would be like the HAM/ROS years.

That’s a strange take considering F1 is acting as the promoter for the Vegas race and invested a lot of its own money instead in this project.

Born in the late 70's :

Yes, and the least efficient EV like the 3 motors Hummer offset that initial deficit within like 60K miles. That ship has sailed.

This is my favorite part

Why’s the North American trucking industry insists on using semis with long noses instead over cabovers like in europe ?

I kinda agree with that, it’s extremely rare that cars fails the post-race inspections, this should have probably mandated extra scrutiny.

No, checking everything would take days, so they do mostly random checks on an equally random variety of component so nobody can guess what’s going to be checked on which cars.

Yes, it’s like with speeding speeding ticket on the highway, some will get away some don’t, but they can’t catch everyone. Don’t go above the speed limit if you don’t want to get pulled over.

Plastidipped stock wheels, rain visors, M-colored grille, insecure-guy fake M badging and “M” steering cover from Temu.

they’re kinda making a comeback

Well then that’s good news, I remember all the “experts” saying EV trucks don’t work, told ya as soon as they heard PepsiCo was putting them on chips routes

Disclaimer : I despise Elon Musk but not Tesla as a company that manufactures good EV’s.

Of course they were

I remember how wtf’d I was when I first saw that

To paraphrase a car salesperson when I refused a deal due to the interest rate :

And these are the non-existent “base” trim. Looking up M cars inventory in my area they’re all spec’d up with the M carbon and Premium packages, which increase the price by 25%

To be fair, MS3's were known for blown engine as well, and so was the CX-7 (CX-7 where everywhere and magically all disappeared 5 years after the end of the production run)
