Agreed. I liked the previous gen quite a bit, looked way better in person than pictures imo.

This. I want to like it, I appreciate what they were going for but it just doesn’t do it for me. It’s the profile, proportions, window kink and wing.

Got ya, thanks for clarifying.

Sorry, can you explain what you mean by this? How did the placement of the finish line relative to the garages allow for Albon’s strategy? Is it unique to Albert Park?

Alternatively... if you aren’t willing to do ANYTHING it takes to create an advantage over your competitors - no matter how infinitesimal, you don’t belong in F1... or F3 for that matter.

Well there was the time at the 2021 Saudi Arabian GP where Bottas had a drag race with Ocon down the final straight to the finish line, beating him by a tenth of a second for the final podium spot.

Yes, I wanted to see that too. I think this video shows off all of the roof configurations the best (despite the vertical video lol):

I do not consider myself antivax but I am critical of what I put in my body and why. And you seem like a pretty reasonable individual, I don’t really disagree with much of anything that you’re saying in this thread. But regarding you’re hardline stance that anybody questioning the COVID vaccines is just plain wrong, I…

Yes, cases everywhere are exploding right now for a variety of reasons (spring break, new variants, loosening restrictions etc.) and MI is indeed in a very bad place, among the worst.

I see what you are saying here and you could have a good point but without looking at any stats, I have a hard time believing that NY, PA, MI, England, Italy and Poland all saw case increases of 24-41% in that timeframe. Because that is how much of an increase the Bike Week counties saw.

While I agree that the bumper cutline was handled really well on the Kia, this sort of treatment has been done before. I first noticed it on the last gen Lexus IS:

Oh right on, the Bronco should be a blast too... if in a different way though. Sounds like you’re just livin’ your best life! Enjoy that Bronco and keep the shiny side up on the trails haha

Oh well, that’s too bad that you had to sell it. Hopefully, one of your other cars can provide similar SPG (smiles per gallon, but you were a Miata owner so you probably knew that haha). I hope to own one some day too, fantastic machines.

^ found the jalop!

Toni, I haven’t finished the article yet but felt compelled to dig up my burner login (for the first time in MANY years!) and tell you how fantastic this article is! I love the in-depth look you are taking and the personal flair you’ve brought. Everything appears so well researched and the plethora of links is keeping…
