With tech improving, particularly VR and augmented reality, I think the desire for this kind of travel only decreases with time.

You fly higher so the air is less dense.

I’ll admit Lewis has got some of his fire back this year, he looked very mediocre last year.

Maybe he did want Seb back, but any team can look at what happened and learn from the experience.

When the Hummer EV came out, I didn’t think anything could be worse. Tesla is trying to win all the things.

I guess that’s a fair assessment, but that seems pretty far-fetched over the contract length.

I tend to agree, but RB didn’t get Max by soldering on with an old talent.

Do you think anyone was looking at Max as the next top driver when Red Bull promoted him? Sure, people could see he had talent, but Red Bull took a risk and it paid off.

I’d argue you’re just delaying the inevitable, why wouldn’t you want to get your next top driver ready for the new regulations?

I’m having trouble understanding why they’d pay so much money for Hamilton when he’s clearly not the future. You either start pushing Russell as your guy, or find a young driver to start grooming, maybe both?

That’s a silly take. If you’re trying to get automakers to reduce actual vehicle emissions, why wouldn’t you do so in a way that produces good results in the real world? If the goal of having a g/km CO2 rating is to help the environment, you had better well make sure the test is representative. What’s the point of the…

...in trade for dependency on foreign precious metals?

If we’re all being honest, the Prius Prime is the sort of car everyone should be buying and every manufacturer should be making. I’d prefer it were a true series hybrid, but even as it is this is the car that makes sense for 95+% of people.

I do emissions testing.

This, right here, is why the way we test emissions is dumb.

Surprised the Honda Fit hasn’t been mentioned, but it’s the obvious answer.

Mine was putting good seats and a nice steering wheel in my project car. You can build a badass engine, put a killer suspension on it, have brakes that could stop the earth...but if it’s not nice to sit in and steer you’ll never enjoy driving it.

Yea, if someone wants to pay that kinda cash, more power to the seller.

I’m still struggling with paying MSRP for a 4-cyl FWD Acura at $55k. You’d have to be batshit to pay over MSRP.
