there are many elements to this race that really make it the best...

I’d leave it up to the driver on the second one

I never said I totally agree, but for your average dumbass, its easy to sell the “Car that does everything”. I mean yeah the marketing annoys me too, but I still blame the consumer. Its your fucking fault if you buy it haha.

We’ve done this to ourselves, all people want is crossovers. Even many jalops acknowledge they are the most practical car. Yeah they are dreadful to behold, and are not good at anything, but they are ok at everything, Enabling more Americans to “live the dream” (LOL) of having a McMansion refreshed full of consumer…

yeah having slept on it and read some other opinions i think youre right, they probably made the right call. Seb made a mistake, even if his trajectory was unintentional he broke the letter of the rule and impeded Hamilton who clearly had the momentum to overtake him, so at the end of the day i think its safe to say…

yeah thats essentially the impression I got, it did look like like a very competitive move, shall we say, which is why i think it attracted a penalty. I suppose if you could prove it, I’d be in favor of a penalty, but it’s just impossible to prove intent or if Seb had full control or not, so while I reckon he did…

yeah i see both sides of it, it just didn’t seem like Seb was carrying enough speed coming off the grass to need that much room to get it under control, just seemed slightly unnatural, but like i said i really cant say - which is why i dont think the call to penalize him was a good one

Honestly watching it over and over, I can acknowledge that the car was probably very difficult to wrangle once he got it back on the tarmac, still, I do feel like he moved over further to the right than he had to. IDK. thats just my instinct looking at it. It just didn’t feel like he had that much momentum so that he…

racing is madness, I’d like it to be as safe as it can be, but the second we are “comfortable” with it, it won’t be interesting. just look at F1

comment of the year

*just my opinion ;) 

you can if youre an idiot

Liz, Liz, Liz. I’m convinced you just write these articles just for the opposing view-point click-bait. Try as I may, I’m afraid I can’t resist, so here goes:

I was wondering why this point didn’t get more attention - this could have been really, really bad. There’s a reason why many tracks have a little chicane (reinforced by a wall) or something coming into the pit-lane. I took a little screen grab of the pit entry from Fuji for reference, since it has a similar high…

idk i think its more relevant than ever, especially if it does a good job showing both perspectives

Safety - the track needed more funds to meet the FIA’s increasing safety demands and it came up with too little too late. This has affected a lot of tracks including ones that later returned and were successful

Yeah good points. I mean the term road course literally means street race, just not typically in a city setting. I think street racing can be great. IMSA at long beach - amazing. Indycar at St. Pete - not my favorite but pretty darn good. I think this Miami idea is even worse than a Sochi, it reminds of the Las Vegas…

When it was at Watkins Glen (~1960-1980) the Canadian Grand Prix was at Mosport which is even closer!

walls can be moved for the money circus

there’s no motorsport fanbase in that area
