Probably, yes, but that doesn’t make my point any less valid.

Jason, the Toyota Mirai would like to have a word with you, on behalf of all the hydrogen fuel cell cars...

Let’s hope the station straightens this out, as the damage done to the 964’s engine may be fatal.

That, implicitly, assumes an internal combustion engine which does not provide a truly massive amount of torque from 0 rpm and needs a gearbox with different ratios to keep the engine in the right rpm band.

Based upon the lead image, my thought was: Yes, of course you can push a cork in with a sufficiently long and thin heel.

Probably.

One more for the chorus, this one from a metallurgist:

This post really makes me wonder... Have we reached Peak Torch?

Ah, I see your point. I was thinking the other way around. The big (high) part of the mirror for rear view, the smaller (thinner) protrusion is towards the steering wheel.

In the first, fourth and fifth picture you can see the narrow extension to the bulge protrude on the driver’s side. Please note that on the first shot you look into the mirror while the other two shots are outside, looking in, from head on.

I like your reasoning, even though it’s flawed. If I look at this correctly, the bulge is on the driver’s side. It’s the side where, from the driver’s side you see... yourself.

Vettel kept track of the tire degradation, as all drivers do, and concluded he wouldn’t have been able to compete for P1 in the closing stages of the race. That’s what prompted the additional pit stop.

Very good, but fully correct. The “o” in Dutch doesn’t have the “ahh” sound. Take the sound from “DONning your race suit” and lengthen the last bit. So: Don-kher-vhoort.

Honest journalism-in-general question:

Raphael, you bloody oaf!

If you ask me, this only goes as deep as to what lead directly to a death: a driver suddenly swerving to the left into oncoming trafic, in a car with a sham for a roll cage and unsufficient driver restraint that caused him to be ejected.

Yes and no.

Young in terms of years: Vettel got his first championship at the age of 23. Max is 20.

Stepping up to the plate, because, yes, Patriotic Duty and all that.

2011 says Hi!
