What she is wearing in those pictures would make her look like a librarian compared to all the white sluts in clubs.

TV is now for women and fags. Sadly, F1 is no exception.

It looks like Haas has not attracted a major sponsor.

I'm not sure that's entirely fair. Gene Haas has said they weren't going to aggressively pursue major sponsors. The team is a marketing exercise to promote Haas CNC machines outside the United States. That said, Magnussen's sponsor clothing brand Jack & Jones is prominently placed. and those pictures are computer renderings anyway.

speaking of the United States, it's embarrassing to Formula 1 that Indycar has debuted their windscreen while the pinnacle of motorsport runs around with a thong sandal atop their cars.

The Williams FW41 comes out in a few hours, hopefully its a nice looking car although the Halo will taint it for sure just like most of the 2018 cars.

The Williams FW41 for 2018

Post: #209

^ I think if the halo was black like on the Haas car it would look better.

RB14 looks pretty awesome, although the livery is just for testing,
I hope the Race livery is similar.

Booked Belgium GP, so stoked.

Who else is going?

Post: #212

Aus GP this weekend! So happy to see the season finally start!!

Post: #213

Yes, it has felt like a long winter. Then again, I stopped watching early last year.

Post: #214

These cars are running turbo 4s correct?

Driver roll bar protection huh? Interesting move seeing as its right where your nose would be.

Post: #216

No, they 1.6L v6 turbos. Limited to about 2bar boost pressure. The engines are actually good for 15K rpm, but fuel flow restrictions limit it to 10-11K. This is also what allows them to get by on so few engines each season. They also have the electric hybrid part of it that adds 200hp or so.

Judging by the first practice sessions, Mercedes will dominate the year again. And they’ll probably be dominant until the engine spec changes in 2020 or 2021. My speculation is the FIA wants to kill F1 in favor of formula e.

Thats a damn shame. Things wont be the same if they do.

What’s a damn shame is that F1 ended their US broadcast deal with NBC sports network. The broadcast is now on ESPN and it’s a feed from Sky Sports. I can’t say I care for it.

Cockpit cam with the HALO looks horrible.

Hamilton on Pole, curious to see if Ferrari can win through strategy like last year.

It was absolutely fucking terrible today.

Non-stop commercials and then no recap because Sky is live the whole time.

Atrocity.

Post: #222

They really fucked it up with commercials.

Post: #223

You can also look into finding some live streams online, its generally uninterrupted coverage.

Yes. Search "VIPbox" and there's usually half a dozen streams. Some are HD, too.

I just wish, as an American, I could get some reasonably unbiased coverage. I'm sure Italian and German TV is just as bad, but sometimes I just want to mute the commentators and not have to hear them talk with Hamilton's dick in their mouth.

One thing we haven’t really discussed here is that when Sauber was run by a female attorney from India, they were the absolute worst team. Sauber got rid of her.

Williams has been run by a woman for a few years now. They’ve got one race victory in 10+ years. They’ve got Mercedes engines, and this season is shaping up to be one of their worst ever. Their most experienced driver rides the bench while they give race seats to pay drivers, one of whom has only been in f1 for a year, and he’s average. The other is a fresh rookie.

I wonder if Claire Williams is as shitty as a parent as she is a team principal?
