>>2538 My dream engine formula:
Purely to make noise:
>V10 engine >2.0L >17000rpm >exhaust must not be obstructed Then to keep the environmentalists and technological advancement people happy, let them have:
>unlimited energy harvesting and use >KERS >electrically driven superchargers The KERS would make them tourqey as hell down low, the supercharger would give the big HP, and the V10 with a free exhaust would make them sound awesome.

The main performance would come from the KERS and the supercharger, the engine is just there to sound good and keep the car moving.

>>2650 I question how dangerous formula 1 cars were before 1994. The last driver death before then was elio de angelis in 1985. But he didnt die from a crash, he died after burning to death at a private test session because the Marshalls didnt have extinguishers or fire proof clothing. Before that Ricardo paletti, who wasn't ready for formula1 but his sponsors pushed him. His car stalled on the grid and he got hit from behind. Ronnie Peterson died because the Marshalls waved the green flag before he was in gear.
Even senna and ratzenberger died because of issues inherent to their cars and the sudden banning of driver aids at the start of the 1994 season (when the cars had been designed around them).

Rosberg has no point. He's whining for the sake of whining, and everybody in the paddock can see it. Even Seb, the king of whining, basically said he was being a child about it.
Hopefully Toto pushed his shit in later that night for bringing bad press to the team in the form of some soap opera forced drama bullshit.

>>5338 I'm aware of Peterson being conscious after the accident and making remarks about wanting to recover like Graham Hill did after breaking his legs.
The point remains that car safety really was not that terrible before 1994. Whether Senna died from suspension failure, poor decision making, a broken steering column, or whatever, the point remains that the monocoque was intact. It was probably the shitty splice that williams did with the steering column as he had requested that the wheel be relocated.
Ratzenberger had been driving a damaged car, and the stability was not helped by being a chassis previously designed for driver aids.
Backmarker 04/17/15 (Fri) 01:20:26 be62aa No. 5344
>>5342 It was pretty bad. Early 50s and 60s F1 had drivers being flung from their cars, drivers hitting barricades/trees/whatever and dying instantly, no effective way to get out in case of a fire, etc.
Monocoque chassis can only do so much.
Backmarker 04/17/15 (Fri) 01:43:32 c25cd0 No. 5346
>>5344 I said before 1994, implicitly referring from 1978 to 1994. 50s and 60s drivers CHOSE to not wear seatbelts because they preferred to be flung from the car. Jochen Rindt spun because he chose to take the wing off his lotus 72 which had been designed around it, and died because he didn't believe in wearing a crotch strap so he slid forward in the car and got his neck slit.
Poorly installed barricades like what killed Francois Cevert were dealt with afterwards. The 1977 german grand prix was held at hockenheim because the nurburgring organizers had voided their contract to hold the races which required safety improvements.
Backmarker 04/17/15 (Fri) 01:46:00 c25cd0 No. 5347
>>5346 >>5344 I should have been clearer in stating that I meant after peterson. Additionally I am talking about the car safety, not the track safety or marshalling.
My argument is against making the cars slower for perceived improvements in safety, not against better organization and policies regarding crashes.

Ben Edwards for BBC is pretty good and has been commentating on F1 longer than Brundle. His excitement is infectious.
>Croft literally complains and bitches when races are boring
I've heard Croft complain during great races because of the absolute smallest shit or because Hamilton wasn't winning.
Last year at Singapore during practise Rosberg crossed the pit entry line because he backed out of coming into the pits. He was like the only car on track.
Croft exploded and started going on about penalties and starting from the fucking pitlane. Bruno Senna just went "Well I don't think the stewards will mind to be honest it was pretty safe and it's only FP1"
20 minutes later Bruno is discussion something with Ted and Croft interrupts them both to show them a replay of Rosberg's heinous crime and why he should be banned for life.
Stewards didn't even bother investigating it.

Same as the constant bitching about track limits.

I actually suspect that's because if you abused them in the past, you likely collided with a wall, whereas now (since track limits are often painted lines) you can actually get an advantage because of the increased run off area that has been added bc muh safety

I noticed the same.
It's a lot like the shit-tier commentary we have in local Aust series.
It reminds me of some advice I heard once about making a YouTube video (not that I make them), in that if you first word is "Um", you've failed as a video maker.
And if you're reaction to an incident as a motorsport commentator is to "ohhh" or "ahhh", instead of actually communicating what's happening with words, then you've failed as a commentator.

F1 didn't invent the HANS device (it was invented much earlier than Senna's death) and it only got mandatory in 2003.
Before that the FIA were trying out some airbag project instead.

Where did he say that F1 invented HANS?
also, what the fuck? Airbags in a racing car? An open wheeler no less?
They should just turn it into bumper cars then, so people can make retard moves like verstappen at Monaco, or takagi's crash with Luca badoer, without any risk and it'll be even more of a shitshow.

It just sounded a bit like he was implying. Blame my 2am autism.
I just re-checked and in fact it was Mercedes Benz themselves who started developing an airbag system for F1 cars.
They joined a meeting between Charlie Whiting and Hubbard Downing Inc (the company who made HANS) and started a partnership to make a HANS device small enough to fit in an F1 car.
They got an old crash tested HANS device from Hubbard and tested it against their air bag and it proved to be as good and so they abandoned the air bag in 1998.

I would say predictably so. Pretensioners work just about as well as airbags with vastly lower cost, difficulty of installation, and some methods are reusable. Of course the gubmint knows best.

An F1 HANS system doesn't stop side to side movement but instead they just have the polystyrene insert around their neck.
They didn't bother trying to make side to side support as they knew they could redesign an F1 cockpit and put in the polystyrene padding to minimise it and so focused on forward motion.
I imagine they would have done similar here but still it is mad.

Vettel really does have excellent throttle control.
Watch the throttle %, and listen to the engine.
By the time you can hear the revs quickly increase when it wheelspins, he's already backed off.

It's actually quite easy to hit a slowing car like that through a combo of misjudging how slow it is going/fast you are going & mentally focusing further up the road than what it is immediately in front of you.

Here's the thing, if you watch Nicholas Latifi, he was racing for 5th place and didn't want to lose his position. He can't block the other driver or push him off as per rules, so he ends up crashing into Merhi. He had to pay attention to Tom Dillmann as well who he was racing. This just shows Merhi was being a fucking moron and he doesn't deserve the Manor seat.
Especially since he pulled that "dindunuffin" shit later.
