It will make the refineries and fields with the highest costs of processing and extraction respectively uneconomic. The ones that make the most expensive stuff will idle, then the ones that can make it cheaper will push the price slowly up again until the expensive ones are competitive again and the whole cycle will…

At least it's alliterative...

I was thinking about Dick Johnson specifically, a touring car legend here down under (ha ha), both as a driver and team owner.

All those Dicks and no Johnson?

This is fine as long as you disregard the drone-turrets he had placed out in the desert for exactly this contingency.

Whats with the picture of Bezos at the bottom of your post?

Now this is proper supervillain thinking right here!

That’s what Trumpism means, right?

But it’s a pernicious aspect of some denominations nonetheless - the idea that the good are blessed by God and the bad are not, and that it therefore follows that those who suffer hardships deserve them.

I am shocked. Shocked!

Senna was a dick when he got into wheel-to-wheel racing though. He was phenomenally talented, his charity work was laudable, and because he died in a race he’s basically sainted by F1 fans, but he was a completely uncompromising driver who was happy to crash other drivers out of races if they got in his way.

But Verstappen can brake later because he's running a wider line that opens the corner more and allows a higher minimum apex speed.

What do Räikkönen and Giovinazzi have to do with it?

It’s a real fucker, ain’t it?

A huge cheer went up when Verstappen was flying off the road. It stopped pretty quickly when he hit the tyres, but it happened.

There’s more than a car’s width of track on the inside there when they touch, so that’s not really an issue. Hamilton understeered a bit, tagged Verstappen, and the result was catastrophic for the latter’s race.

I have, and they help - definitely stick with them!

Lack of time, injury and apathy all conspired to make what initially seemed like a reasonably innocuous failure into an issue which has slightly wounded my soul on a regular basis for a fair while now.

These look incredible in the metal.
