  1. Any F1 fans here??

    If you had seen Grosjean's crash a few years ago, you'd understand the halo better. His car went straight into a barrier which was basically a stack of steel guardrails. Squeezed between two of them. He only survived because of the halo. That thing is built like a tank.

  2. Any F1 fans here??

    One thing about Red Bull is that they seem to be able to focus their design on one driver. The second driver (whoever it is) is always noticeably less capable, First it was Vettel, now it's Verstappen. Be interesting next year to see what Hamilton can do at Ferrari. (And if they have some...

  3. Anybody watch f1?

    That's what I mean. That's what the sport is all about. That's where technology advances come from. (Not necessarily 6 wheels, but things like traction control, ABS, active suspension). "The rules don't say we can't." Until they do.

  4. Anybody watch f1?

    Before my time, but I prefer the days when the "formula" was a list of requirements, and you could field anything that met those requirements. That was the whole point of the sport (and the name). Nowadays, it's more "build this car, any way you want (as long as we agree)". The fact that the...

  5. Anybody watch f1?

    F1 goes in generations. Every time they do a major rules change, they throw out the car/engine designs, and the deck gets shuffled. Whoever has an advantage initially tends to stay ahead (usually). Happens about every 10 years. Before Red Bull, it was Mercedes and Hamilton. Before that it was...

  6. World Cup 2022 *spoilers*

    Game was mostly Argentina. They lost concentration a bit in the 2nd half and the 2nd extra time. Argentina keeper saved one PK, and France missed one.

  12. World Cup 2022 *spoilers*

    Time for US to step up! Iranian players apparently got in trouble at a previous game for refusing to sing their national anthem.

  13. World Cup 2022 *spoilers*

    Another big upset - Morocco beats Belgium 2-0.

  14. World Cup 2022 *spoilers*

    Refereeing has been very inconsistent. Hopefully they learn and get rid of the bad ones in later rounds.

  15. World Cup 2022 *spoilers*

    Saudi Arabia gave each of their players a Rolls Royce, for beating Argentina.

  16. World Cup 2022 *spoilers*

    US England 0-0. US played pretty well. (England has never beat the US in the World Cup.) Now they have to beat Iran.

  17. World Cup 2022 *spoilers*

    Gained interest at the end. Almost VERY interesting ending! (And Ghana is the lowest ranked team in the competition.)

  18. World Cup 2022 *spoilers*

    Changes to the sport this World Cup: Different way of calculating "extra time" (more of it). 5 minutes per half seems almost minimum. 10 minutes is not unusual. Now teams get 5 substitutions per game rather than 3. Not sure what I think about the changes.

  19. World Cup 2022 *spoilers*

    That's the womens team. That's next year. Looks like Japan is going to stun Germany.

  20. World Cup 2022 *spoilers*
