If Haas gets a car into Q3, I may cream my pants.

If it's true that RBR and Ferrari have passed them up, I think they will figure it out in due time and be a/the frontrunner again.



I think that's where I'm leaning. Like sure they may end up flubbing this season but I don't think they'll be perennial midfielders this decade, either.

I'll bet 4th best til the summer break, and then they scare the shite out of everyone in the back half of the season but still finish 3rd

Glad to see Kevin “Suck My Balls” Magnusson is in over Mazepin. Mazepin could predict Russian weather and that’s about it.

I agree, Mercedes will find a way to make their concept work.

I did mean DRS but apparently I’ve misunderstood a few things as I thought the point of the new aero was to get rid of DRS,

I think that is one of Ross Brawn's long term goals but they're not there quite yet.

While Mercedes can develop a car in season as well or better than any other time the issue this year is the cost cap and Merc is on the short end of the aero testing limit since they finished first in the WCC last year. They get 70% of the base testing time whereas Haas on the other end gets 115%. This isn't such a big deal if you get it more or less right from the start and only need to tweak but if you get something fundamentally wrong the testing limit is a big hindrance.

The one thing that is always true is sooner or later domination ends. F1 actually needs this.

FWIW, its ESPNNews for me.

Is Mothers a broadcast sponsor for '22? Are we without a broadcast sponsor for '22?

Just signed up for F1TVPro and it says you have access to twam comms. I'm not finding a link for that anywhere and assume that comes up once they are running. Anyone know for sure?

Also, it has telemetry available but it seems that is during the race only. Not practice/qualifying.

Danke

eta-It's up now and I see where things are. This looks pretty fricking cool.

Telemetry can be addictive. I have missed entire races with my face buried in the numbers. I used to have the most fun during the refueling days.

If they have the speed traces during the race I'll definitely have that on the laptop while the race is on the TV.

THey just showed one showing a Ferrari braking a good bit earlier than Hamilton while only being about even through the middle and slightly faster on exit.

Different driving styles but the Ferrari needs to get off better than it did in that instance to make up for the different line.
