“One day, when all these useless politicians (on both sides) stop their pissing matches over who can screw whose base over more, I might be able to get an EV, that I can charge at a convenient place, for less than my yearly salary. Maybe even, dare I say, get a rebate?”

True. But he did sentence a rapist to 1/4 of the recommended minimum sentence because he didn’t think the fact that he raped someone should have a negative effect on his life. He did make it crystal clear, not just to the victim of this rape but to rape victims everywhere, that he holds rapists in considerably higher…

To be fair, the Rolls-Royce umbrella thing isn’t just for rain. It’s also designed to serve as a privacy curtain that the chauffeur uses for exiting passengers in paparazzi environments. The chauffeur can open the front and rear (rear-opening) doors to 45º, and open the umbrella in the gap to give (primarily female)…

It’s not supposed to be grabbed by the passenger. It’s for the doorman.

I own a 31 year old Porsche with a brown leather interior and if you saw the condition of the leather vs. the plastic you might change your mind.

Every chance it’ll only be a software upgrade to make them comply, may as well assemble the bits left in the supply chain until you’re out of stock - you’ve bought them already anyway, and whole cars are easier to store than warehouses full of inventory.

Welcome to Just in Time production methods, where they have a place to park the run of finished cars but no place to put all the parts to assemble that particular run of cars if they don’t get built for some unforeseen reason.

Supply chain is like a flywheel, once it's spinning it's hard to wind it down. Working in manufacturing I can understand why they did this. It was most likely easier to build them than change course.

You can’t spell “MiQroBus” without MQB!

Not really sure how the guy on the inside holding his line that was well established a corner ago puts him at fault. Kimi cut inside and hit him, hoping that Bottas would give him room.

It looks like a bad tribal tattoo. But, it’s still better than the previous. I would have ditched the chrome/silver immediately after cutting ties with Mercedes. Like, that day.

Badass Boring. FTFY.

I guess I don’t see how it “screams hideous”...?

They should make them supercharger enabled.

5.) BMW i8

I was trying to think of a way to express why I disagree with this one, I think you nailed it.

You know that iPhone 3 you can no longer use because it can't be updated anymore?

"Unlike manufacturer-owned teams, our core business is Formula One."

Great write up! It's a shame to see F1 follow DTM, LeMans, and so many other race leagues by letting runaway spending on technology push out all constructors except big carmakers. It kills the soul of the sport.

F1 will die if Bernie isnt kicked to the curb and the FIA isnt completely reformed. Continual technical regulations to control the financials simply isnt going to work. Financial regulations for financial issues. F1 is going to be more of a spec class than Indycar soon.. eck.
