Formula 1 Discussion - And favourite driver?

Another Q1 elimination for Tsunoda. Why on earth were people acting like this guy was a future superstar held back by a bad car? He's on the same level as Lawson and Checo. In fact, Lawson's outperforming him now.

The problem is that it's tricky to drive for anyone not named Verstappen and due to how close every car is now, being only able to drive a car at 9/10 instead of 10/10 inevitably leads to that. Back in the days of unlimited testing, this could be solved by having a test mule where the primary goal is still to eliminate whatever causes the problem.

Depressing seeing the best driver have to drag a tractor around the grid. Hoping Max can still work some magic this weekend. Also hoping that f1 news doesn't filter to Null this time so he can get everything wrong on MATI again. *sigh*

Where did he mention F1?

Verstappen extremely cucked by yellow flag. Exposed by Liam fucking Lawson.

I think Lawson managing a regular points position for a midfielder when his former teamate couldn't finish above a fucking sauber shows how fucked the car is now.
Even without the yellow flag, verstappen would probably finish in 5th or 4th at best.



I think the faggots complaining about a middle aged woman fucking a 50 year old man (they didn't even explicitly fuck, cuddling on a veranda when the dude is having a existential crisis and kissing his cheek for 4 minutes in the entire film)to be fucking retarded.

That's the main complaint I'm seeing from all the reviews for fucks sake it's either that or how a 60 year old can be a F1 driver, or how they were basically pulling a Benetton to reach 7th (yep the apgx team doesn't win through most of the times, their most consistent rival is Toro Rosso?)

"ooh the romance ruined it, it should be 99% racing (so just watch the fucking races then?)" for the right wing based crowd, or "a female director fucking someone is a defeat for feminism, she should be a bitch who is bossy and completely celibate"(when Susie Wolff who complained about it was a fucking test driver fucking the Mercedes team principal because she's his fucking wife)

Imagine being this much of a bitch complaining about Tom cruise fucking the USAF tactician or how the f-14 doesn't make beep boop sounds but brr wrrr sounds and doesn't actually fire 15 missiles irl at enemies.

I'm not a F1 film fanboy or some shit but imagine going to school after watching top gun in '86 and your classmates are bitching how unrealistic it is to drive a motorcycle without a helmet or how a fighter pilot needs do to 8 hours of paperwork for every training flight and instead he's drinking beer and fucking blondes on the beach side bar and that's
not realistic.

Oh look on the grid walk they just happened by entire chance to find women mechanics and engineers to talk to.

This shit and pushing the "F1 academy" (that is 4 steps away from actual F1 and run by a woman who is only there because of who her husband is) is getting so tiresome.

But hey now we get to listen to street shitter and radio commentator talk nonsense instead of covering the race.

You're here to talk about a sport, just talk about the fucking sport. It can't be too much to ask to have people who actually know the sport to be the ones talking about the sport.

Hey Sky why no female commentators? Why have you not put any women in that position? The one thing you control and you don't do it?

F1 movie an/al-sis
Click to expand...
I watched the movie yesterday and my main gripe with it is that the Brad Pitt character (Sonny) wins the race at the end.
I'd have enjoyed it more if his teammate had won it, it'd kinda be like in Rocky Balboa where Rocky loses but pushes and challenges the young, talented boxer and makes him learn something from a veteran.
But overall I enjoyed it, the romance scenes were literally like 10-15 minutes, there wasn't even anything saucy about them. I wanted to see F1 "racing" on the big screen and I got it.

Martin Brundle prattling along with the action explaining everything to the normies was grating but it's obvious why it's there. I can't help but think that a lot of what he says could be communicated visually or maybe more subtly by characters in the movie.

Another thing I'd have liked to see in the movie is how physically exhausting racing is. Yeah Brad Pitt gets sweaty a bit and shows that he's sore, but you don't really know if it's because he's racing or because he's old. I don't remember his young teammate ever showing any strain or fatigue caused by driving a race car.

An okay movie, but I'd recommend Rush over this, that movie has what this one doesn't - it's based on a real rivalry and on a real event.

Would be nice to see the Ferrari update work out for Charles. Need someone else to take it to McLaren and it's increasingly looking like that red bull car is beyond even Max's tallent to drag to the front.

ETA Oh well.
