I actually really like this car. It looks like an Italian engineer saw the Honda CRX, and said, “It’s okay, but it’d be better if it was way more complicated and busy-looking.”

Aside from the fact that the grid girls block my view of the cars, which should be a felony, it’s not as simple as “they’re willing participants and therefore it’s OK.”

Came here to see a bunch of white men blame “feminists and SJWs”

Wasn’t disapointed..Oh wait I was.. in men in general.

This topic should be waaaaaaaayyy more trivial than it is. Grid girls are, in no way, vital to F1’s future success, ergo, just get rid of them. Jeezum f’n xmas, are we neanderthals…?

SCOTD.

Why not just pick X number of random fans from the event and have them do the umbrella/name thing and get rid of the awkward “walk through a line of women to the podium”

Is there like a reverse COTD?

Sounds like a perfect time to switch to Grid Dogs!

Humor is well and truly dead. great analysis.

what I really want to see is BMW doing rallycross with their 1 series hatch but keeping it RWD for some lovely powersliding goodness

I see Stef is filling in for Torch today.

How did Mary Berry place?

Much better than the very lazy deflate jokes!

Kinda my counter point to people who complain about the plot in Mad Max Fury Road. It’s like someone woke up one day and said “What if instead of trying to cram a car chase into some action / romance / comedy we just made a huge car chase into a movie?” Don’t over complicate just give the people what they want.

And when the culprit is nowhere to be found, exactly whom pays the insurance deductible? The Insurance Deductible Fairy??

The easiest way to be certain is to look at the driver. If he looked like this, it’s a Corvette.

You don’t get car collecting/investing. This has NOTHING to do with safety features, performance or handling. A Ferrari 250 GTO can be worked over by a VW GTI on a track. But one is collectible, one is consumable.

yeah, i usually scoff at the ridiculous pricing of most exotics.. but this, this feels like it’s absolutely worth every penny. it’s rare enough, nice enough, fast enough, cool enough, and oddball enough to justify buying this over any newer ferrari/lambo of the same cost.

*And* it’s blue? My god. A deal at twice the price. And is that...a factory 8-band manual EQ? I’ll need some alone-time.
