They will spin it so that at least it didn't happen in a race...yet.

 

I know we have some aerospace lovers in here, so if anyone is interested, these are the dates and locations the Apollo Space Capsule will be on display.

Houston 10/14/17-3/18/18
St. Louis 4/14/18-9/3/18
Pittsburgh 9/29/18-2/18/19
Seattle 3/16/19-9/2/19

It'll be interesting seeing them fight for 5th place.
I think it's unlikely that Merc would show off a rule loophole this early if there was a significant advantage.
Flyover country tip: St Louis sucks.

 

you either think Hamilton is that good or that Bottas sucks pretty bad, because Rosberg was able to stay close enough to Hamilton to not only punt him off track a few times but even managed to win a championship from Ham. I think Bottas can stay close enough to Hamilton to make it more interesting.

 

I think Ham has moar advantages over Bottas than he had over Brit. Plus I just think HAM is going to be sharp as a tack this year. Ham zoned out at times in 2016 and he still damn near won the title. I think he's gonna be out for blood. I hope I'm wrong but worried Bottas will crack.

As far as Merc not waiting to try something out. I think they have something moar elaborate up their sleeve. They are doing this now to see if the teams/Charlie/FIA will say something about it. It could also be a ruse to take the eyes off of some other part, but if that were the case why would Merc not have it on from the very first time they debuted the car.

i have to admit it's nice to see a '08 style rear wing instead of the '09-'16 bookshelf

 

Agreed. The fat tyres look great too. The Merc livery looks p good in motion. At a quick glance it looks like teal flow vis. Def the best car in all aspects so far (details, looks, etc)

 

Hungary '98 on now

Quite possibly Schumi's best moment

 

The 98 ferrari is sofa king hot.

Holy crap, Mike's wheels were covered in brake dust. Yuge cloud of brake dust when he pitted on lap 66.

Kind of annoying the track side audio isn't synced to the cameras, although I can't complain much since the engines sound soooo goooood

 

 

I had forgotten he almost lost it and ended up doing some agricultural racing. You could see erry lap was on the ragged edge. Boy put a whoopin on 'em that day.

 

Well that sure is interesting...

11 GMT needs to be here now

Was in response to this...

 

das right.

cars are some damn long meow. Long, wide, but skinny? Es strange, but I'll allow it.

 

Spa 98 is on. Anything worth noting going to happen?

 

snoozer

 

Other than the mega crash at the start and the Schu/Coulthard incident

Monza will be up next with Schu winning in front of the home crowd

Weird fact about '98. Every time Hakkinen won he won 2 in a row

 

why do people hate shark fins

 

i'm not people

 

You is person
