99 percent sure this qualifying bullshit is a threat. They keep proposing shitty shit at ecclestone's behest. He wanted these shit formulae removed and the manufacturers and todt stopped him, so now he's twisting the knife.
He's showing that if he doesn't get his way he'll have to fuck it up.

My Formula 1 team retains the services of a pay driver. It turns out he's really shit. He crashes constantly and costs a heap of money in parts. Now, should we fire him? Take the number of crashes per year, A, multiply by the amount of points positions lost, B, multiply by the average cost of parts, C. A times B times C equals X. If X is less than the amount of sponsorship, we don't fire him.

there's always going to be a lag but some OVF (optical viewfinders) on cameras are pretty good right now. I'd be more concerned about safety/peripheral vision but the FIA is totally ignoring that with the halo/side head impact protection.

Reliability has been high.
Renault is now McLaren though
Ferrari have set fast time but on softer tyres.
Mercedes have just been doing ridiculous mileage on medium. Just none stop laps to 900km
Red Bull seems to be doing better
Williams are williams
Haas is seemingly going to be okayish apart from the front wing failure they suffered
Manor are manor

If we haven't we have now
It's Algerian fashion/lingerie designer and former underage prostitute Zahia Dehar.
Famous for getting paid paid to have sex with Franck "Glassed-as-a-child" Ribéry and Karim "Totally-not-recording-your-sex-tape" Benzema two members of the French national team. As she was 17 at the time she was over the age of consent (15) but under the age for being able to sell sex (18). An investigation happened just before the 2010 World Cup. They would have received 3 years in jail if convicted while she got nothing as being prostitute isn't illegal but in the end the case was dropped because they didn't know she wasn't 18.
The french national team collapsed spectacularly in world cup leading to a player revolt and last place in the group stages.

I assume he was actually a Mercedes photographer (They all have to wear the same media vests) because of the board they held up behind Lewis for the shot.
The mechanic was telling him that Lewis was going to need to reverse back into the pitbox so he needs to stand back so Lewis can have room.
Lewis then decides to play chicken with him.
But it is more fun to say homicide so go with that.

Was thinking lower midfield before the test, more info is still required. They seemed to have escaped the fate of the 2010 startup teams but someone still has to be in last place. Manor have upped their game significantly and Renault isn't total crap so not being dead last might depend on how fast the 2016 Sauber is. There's a lot of question marks around McHonda too.

While the government should never be involved in the economy, much less sporting events, there may be an argument that a petrochemical state should invest in something that is potentially going to mature and bring money back into the country.
For sure f1 won't make them money, but it might put them on the map for foreign investment in sectors other than the black shit in the ground.
>>36636
The v8 engined cars (esp the Renault, because mechachrome still makes parts) are also astronomically cheaper to run.

I should clarify. The Sierra Club finds an issue to litigate over, claims they are protecting the environment, picks a fight with an organization that will settle out of court. They made a totally bullshit claim that the water supply was threatened by the gravel that was pushed off.
Then when the pikes peak highway officials settled out of court and had it paved, the sierra club got to claim they saved the earth, and acted as if they had market rate attorneys (so that their wealthy members and backers donate) while using unpaid interns and volunteers to actually do the case work.

Though I don't know if that is the best idea. The whole reason I watch any NASCAR is some escapism to the slightly redneck American world. He might be shit in the commentary, he might go boogity and the fans don't like him but damn does Darrell Waltrip put me in the correct mood with that accent and mannerisms.

I know that.
Your nature reserves and national parks are bigger than our counties. You have actual wilderness.
When I think of American outdoors (and please tell me to fuck off if I'm making myself a fool) I think of roughing it, I think of Davy Crockett and the frontier, I think of being closer to nature in a way because really you are. You can be miles and miles away from any civilised life and isolated with the world. You have to think in some places "I can actually die here if I fuck up"
Not to mention you have the whole Native Indian background as well if you want to.
Where as in the UK the whole bird watching, holidaying and outdoors stuff is heavily influenced by the Victorians.
They loved going to places like the lake district on holiday (not as much as seaside towns but still). They built whole rail networks to make the whole process easier of going on holiday to here.
When you go to somewhere like Windermere or Lake Coniston it's incredible how much of that feeling is still there. That quaintness. It's like mini summer holiday every time you go there.
My dad used to read me Swallows and Amazons (The sort of books that you can't read to children now as it would just depress them that they don't live in that time) before bed and my mum would read me Peter Rabbit. Those were both massively influenced by that (Swallows and Amazons was written later but it's same kind thing just replace Victorian holidays with sending children north due to war) and so going anywhere is like just walking through a living childhood.
Also the Peter Rabbit museum gets visited by like a billion qt Jap girls every summer…..honestly it is great.
I'm sure I explained that terribly and I'm sure that same feeling can be found in America so ignore the rambling.

>Your nature reserves and national parks are bigger than our counties. You have actual wilderness.

>When I think of American outdoors (and please tell me to fuck off if I'm making myself a fool) I think of roughing it, I think of Davy Crockett and the frontier, I think of being closer to nature in a way because really you are. You can be miles and miles away from any civilised life and isolated with the world. You have to think in some places "I can actually die here if I fuck up"

>Not to mention you have the whole Native Indian background as well if you want to.
you're no fool. there are huge wooded areas that I would do the whole "call the park rangers/local law enforcement if i don't come back by 5 on tuesday" thing before attempting to traverse.
Recently a friend of mine did some backpacking across several states on a motorcycle and that was very cool to see.
>The sort of books that you can't read to children now as it would just depress them that they don't live in that time
Dark, we have some of those too.
>I'm sure I explained that terribly and I'm sure that same feeling can be found in America so ignore the rambling.
that's all really cool

I'll come back and read this when i'm not operating on a few hour's sleep.
