      HAHA, it does seem like they do it for the hype a lotta times. Thats unbelievable they gave him a 10-spot for repairs when a track defect jumped up and bit him.

        I’m wondering when the mods will change this thread title to “Motor Circus” to keep the forum a credible place.

        The journey is the objective.

            I think Toto cunted his “friend” Vasseur on that penalty. Unfair exploitation of force majeure and completely unsporting.

              In theory I like WEC more than F1, I just haven't figured out how to watch it. I also love WRC.

              Anyway--this fucking car is my favorite thing right now in going fast on 4 wheels (can't say "racing" because it's not a regulation race car). I just love the way she sounds and obviously her performance is just insane. Porsche's erstwhile absence in F1 is a gaping void--my favorite race car manufacturer by a long shot and probably the most storied. Shout out the the driving on this lap too.... especially considering the G forces, a monumental achievement.

              Think it, be it.

                  he topped out very quickly on that straight, that thing GETS. I have no idea how you can control a car so precisely when your head is bouncing around the cabin like a futbol in the dryer.

                      Yeah like coming out of the turn that electric motor just PULLS that thing up to speed. What an amazing machine.

                          Max’s takes past couple of years have been pretty good on a lot of topics IMO. I hate how much I agree with him.

                          But WHAT A RACE! It was so good. What a great surprise. They really need to make a few changes going forward like most obviously doing it earlier in the season but excellent motor racing.

                            I like Max, but I wanted to see Checo or Leclerc on top. Bummer to see Lando biff it. The race did turn out great, good action, better than I thought.

                                This is how a race engine should sound. What a beast. This makes me wish V12s and Cosworth would return to F1 and reaffirms Gordon Murray’s place in the pantheon. Top Gear also have a more in depth review worth a watch but this is all about the sound and the (12k) RPMs

                                      @mclaincausey LOL good stuff! Serious question about the deal with Perez though - I know they had a 'season performance clause' or something in his contract, like I'm sure many contracts are (except Sargent apparently) - but, was there any serious consideration that you know of regarding his removal or demotion? ...aside from disgruntled 'fans'? I though he had a pretty well-deserved 2nd. I'm fairly new to F1 but the rumor mill seems pretty intense.

                                          I tried to post some of his garage cutaways but it would not work. Trying again.

                                          Well I got one. Couldn’t get Merc or RB to work.

                                          Ok jumping thru hoops to get RBR:

                                          And Merc:

                                          Look closely. There’s details like the lost diamond from Monaco and other amazing things in these.
