[red wadi]

The 22 year old allegedly was “wasted” when he walked into the Williams HQ, some team members being worried for him. His mother told the BBC that his father also had several issues with drinks

Erm wait

Now I gotta rethink what I was trying to do with this part of the lore

Oh yeah

[floral apex]

bro forgot what the lore was for this part

[red wadi]

Though some people said he also acted that way because he has a “boring” party before the team meeting and thought it would be funny to fake being “wasted”. Camareno has yet to respond

[red wadi]

Yeah, I made some stuff today but forgot to sort it😭😭

Camareno already has drama before he even touched an F1 car😭

[red wadi]

New main sponsor I see

Btw it’s wild how Sunwest was going on during IsrFast

[keen brook]

and survived

[floral apex]

Marriott's been our sponsor since last season mate lmao

[red wadi]

Oh damn😭

[keen brook]

Before you made the tweets I didn't know that as well.

[red wadi]

CAMARENO RESPONDS….. kind of
Morgan Camareno has put up a statement on Instagram: “As a role model, I have to do role model things. But just do whatever you feel like doing kids”

[floral apex]

i like how this implies yall didnt look at my sidepod sponsors

[red wadi]

True, I was more admiring the lack of sponsors

[keen brook]

wait

Oh, it literally is on the sidepod lol.

I never noticed that.

[floral apex]

If we win a fifth title the 4-point star's being upgraded to a 5-point star

[red wadi]

Bro is onto something (he’s gonna reveal something big 👀)

[keen brook]

Well, that I make these tweets for quali and race results from the team lasted long.

In Jeddah I forgot it already.

[red wadi]

CAMARENO BECOMES THE FACE OF HEINEKEN (0.0) COSTA RICA
Morgan Camareno and Heineken have agreed on a deal to make the 22 year old Costa Rican superstar the face of their 0.0% alchohol branche. This will be just the first of many ad campaigns in Costa Rica he will star in

[keen brook]

Bottas went wide.

[floral apex]

heinekostarica

[red wadi]

😭😭

Bro is NOT beating the drunk allegations with that one🔥🔥

[keen brook]

If you can't beat them, join them.

[red wadi]

😭

People boutta think he actually turned up drunk at the Team Building event with that sponsor frfr

[keen brook]

for real

[red wadi]

Williams: wow we signed this new driver who is loved by his country, what can go wrong
shows up drunk at the team building event (allegedly)

[keen brook]

In the 24 manager, there can't be a save from me without a female affiliate who I want to make a future F1 driver.

[red wadi]

🔥

[keen brook]

It's Abbi in my My Team save and Chloe in my Haas save.

Pérez went wide.

[red wadi]

Morgan Camareno finally talks about the situation
Look my family has a bit of a habit of overpartying, I apologise to the guy who had to open the fridge all the time. At least the football match was a blast, will come back soon!

[floral apex]

and the chinese gp is under way

[red wadi]

(He basically didn’t confirm shit)

Anyways Imma sleep

[floral apex]

How to not be controversial:
Don't even try to confirm nor deny it

[keen brook]

[red wadi]

[red wadi]

I mean, try to cancel him and you have angered an entire nation (where he has been once)

[keen brook]

Australia qualifying result of my Haas career

Strategies are for both .

It's lights out and away we go!

[floral apex]

My discord took a while to load and only showed the inters emoji so i was like "wait you're only doing 1 stint of inters?"

[keen brook]

lol

mechanical issue for Verstappen

crash

[floral apex]

That was quick

[keen brook]

Lawson locked up into Doohan.

both out

[floral apex]

I mean it is australia

I wouldnt be surprised if there were like 5 red flags

[keen brook]

For whatever reason it always was a borefest for me in this game.

It's lights out and away we go!

Lawson gets a 5 second time penalty.

[floral apex]

(again)

[keen brook]

New strategies are for both .

[floral apex]

isnt that the exact same strategy?

[keen brook]

nope

It was before.

[floral apex]

oh i see it now

The mediums and hards look almost identical at text scale

[keen brook]

crash

Sargeant and Gasly

Sargeant out

Gasly light damage

Gasly gets a 5 second time penalty.

[floral apex]

The tire emojis should be like the ones they use on f1 tv or whatever they look like

[keen brook]

2.542 for Esteban

2.324 for Ollie

[stone otter]

guys, anyone to play f1 23?

[keen brook]

Schumacher spun.

[floral apex]

f1 tv inspired tire compound emojis

I like how the slick compounds just say "SMH" like theyre disappointed

[keen brook]

The dry tire compounds are literally, "people always want rain smh".

Smh i want

Meanwhile the wet compounds "I want rain".

Throwback to whatever Pirelli was doing back in 2018

[keen brook]

Tbh I liked that a lot more than C0 to C5 and just putting Soft, Medium, Hard onto it.

Like literally what was the Hard in the previous race is in the next all of a sudden a Soft.

[floral apex]

The hypersofts would barely last in like qatar or something lmao

[keen brook]

Well, Qatar would probably still be Soft, Medium, Hard.

The Superhard actually was never used.

Like they introduced a tire harder than the Hard just to then never use it.

[floral apex]

the superhard probably wouldve been good in like an f1 endurance race
but in a regular race, the grip tradeoff wasn't worth it

Update

i've opted to pit both max and kimi under the VSC

both red bulls stayed out

piastri comes in the next lap

VSC ends

back to green flag racing

Alpine looking a lot like sauber

[keen brook]

new affiliate for 2027

[floral apex]

max and kimi are doing their usual fighting

lawson has been lapped

we successfully undercut piastri

we're so far ahead i just told both drivers to stop pushing

[floral apex]

what is going on with these pit stop times

[floral apex]

Imagine seeing this and thinking for a second Max Verstappen joined Haas

[keen brook]

Would be a huge upgrade from Mercedes.

[floral apex]

I had the exact same thought when I signed him in 2026

[floral apex]

also notice how cursed this sentence is
"Yeah going to fking Haas would be better than that tractor of a Mercedes"

[keen brook]

Verstappen also was the 1st DNF in 2026.

As Bahrain is Bahrain there were none and in Jeddah he crashed out of the race.

[floral apex]

I saved Max from Merc and now he's a 6-time world champion

3 with Red Bull (his 2024 title doesn't exist in my save) and 3 with us

[keen brook]

For me he's a 4-time champion like irl.

[floral apex]

If he had won the 2024 title and we still did eveeything the same, he'd be a 7-time world champion

Still find it funny how in my save it was Leclerc who was Max's rival instead of Norris

[keen brook]

penalty points after the 2026 Australian Grand Prix:

[floral apex]

ocon running away with the lead for now

Hey at least his teammate is there
Unlikr whatever Piastri had last season

[keen brook]

Yeah, Ollie is a better 2nd driver for the constructors than Schumacher was.

And well, again there's only Piastri and both Ferraris.

[floral apex]

Schumacher still not performing

he truly is perez

[keen brook]

Piastri was on pole whilst Schumacher was knocked out in Q1 as 20th.

[floral apex]

yep thats perez

[floral apex]

So the grid was a mclaren sandwich

[keen brook]

yeah

[floral apex]

fans are probably demanding schumacher be fired because he is not helping the mclaren title charge at all

[floral apex]

A haas leading the championship probably wasn't in anyone's bingo board lmao

[keen brook]

Well, Esteban won already some races, so momentum was there already.

But that it'll turn into such a dominance even I haven't expected.

Esteban won so far every race with a huge gap to 2nd.

[floral apex]

this WCC is probably self-explanatory

[keen brook]

Kick Sauber 3rd is crazy.

Haas 4th and Williams 6th as well

Ferrari downfall😭

[floral apex]

my F2 crew are doing wonders

[keen brook]

Alpine still a back marker

[floral apex]

except for Stanek
he hasn't scored a single point

[keen brook]

damn

[floral apex]

that moment when you're not just dominating in F1 but in F2 as well

[keen brook]

Meanwhile I don't even have any driver in F2 and F3.

[floral apex]

Arvid Lindblad is doing wonders
I made a great choice signing him to the junior team

[keen brook]

Well, he's a very promising talent irl as well.

[floral apex]

and to think i only signed him because i wanted to fully "own" the Trident team lmao

[keen brook]

lol

[floral apex]

I think Stanek is also nearing the end of his career
He recently had a major rating drop

[floral apex]

At least i have a lot of good optiobs for the next Sunwest lineup
Lindblad is now in contention for a seat
Pulling is also in there
Hadjar if I really wanted

[slim sable]

I'm about to win the championship and then max pits me

[floral apex]

just went back to the fake tweet website and i realized i had this on it still

[keen brook]

nice

[keen brook]

Verstappen went wide into the wall and out of the race.

Then there was an issue with fitting on the front right tire at Iwasa's pit stop.

[keen brook]

Then Lawson locked up into Doohan, taking both out of the race and getting a 3 place grid penalty for Japan.

[barren geyser]

Just bought f1 24

[keen brook]

Then Sargeant and Gasly came together, taking Sargeant out of the race and giving Gasly a 5 second time penalty.

Then there was an issue with the jacks at Verstappen's pit stop.

And then there was an issue with removing the front left tire at Norris' pit stop.

Esteban's wins in Jeddah and Melbourne

[floral apex]

haasteban

[keen brook]

the Haasterplan

[keen brook]

Pourchaire replaced Norris in FP1 at Mercedes, O'Sullivan replaced Sargeant in FP1 at Alpine, Antonelli replaced Verstappen in FP1 at Mercedes, Davis replaced Sainz in FP1 at Red Bull and Caeiro replaced Ricciardo in FP1 at Red Bull.

[floral apex]

schumacher going faster than piastri?!? what world is this?!?

[keen brook]

the world of meaningless practice sessions

Speaking about Schumacher, I actually wanted to look if Martins is the only affiliate higher rated than a main driver.

mechanical issue for Doohan

mechanical issue for Doohan

severe now

[lyric scaffold]

Damnnn the game predicted dino to dams

[keen brook]

yeah lol

[keen brook]

Sargeant went wide.

[surreal cobalt]

Man the mclaren is so op in f1 23

they are not like that in 24

[shut moon]

Please anwer my question😢😢😢

[keen brook]

Sargeant went wide.

I would say the Red Bull.

[surreal cobalt]

the red bull

[shut moon]

But i was ahead at the apex

And i had the position

[keen brook]

Sainz locked up.

almost into Doohan

with divebombing and slamming into the Mercedes

Schumacher locked up.

almost into Zhou

[floral apex]

my pc background is still max at red bull from my save's 2024 season

[keen brook]

Verstappen locked up.

[floral apex]

well speaking of max

[surreal cobalt]

i wonder if they will replace sargeant with colapinto in f1 24 and ricciardo with lawson

[keen brook]

I doubt it.

Even the summer break in 2016 was too late for Codies to replace Haryanto with Estie Bestie.

[floral apex]

they did replace debris with ricciardo in f1 23 but that mightve just been a popularity thing

[keen brook]

They probably only do what happens pre-summer break.

[floral apex]

maybe the final version of 24 will have colapinto and lawson as options?

[surreal cobalt]

i have seen people who still in this day have nyck de vries in their f1 23 saves lol

[keen brook]

Well, if I would re-install F1 23 that would be the case for me.

[floral apex]

i mean that might be because they started before the switch was made

[keen brook]

yeah

It only applies to saves started after that patch.

[surreal cobalt]

also aston martin being op and mclaren being slow

[keen brook]

Well, that's how it was at the start of 2023.

And a career save starts at the start of 2023.

So you could argue it's the player's/AI's job to do the same development than irl.

[floral apex]

i only started f1 23 like after this season started so thats why i have ricciardo instead of debris

and also max's 2023 championship helmet being his permanent helmet

[surreal cobalt]

when they buffed the mclaren they made lando norris win nearly every wdc in career mode

[keen brook]

That's pole position! And it's even a front row lock-out!🥳

Let's fucking go!

finally

finally

[floral apex]

haas 1-2 doesnt exist it cant hurt you
haas 1-2:

[keen brook]

a pole in this game

[surreal cobalt]

haas 1-2 is cursed

[keen brook]

It only needed a drying track at the end and no AI driving out to get one.

finally

[floral apex]

that would explain the 3 second gap

that feels like that time in monaco when Gasly got provisional pole, promptly crashed out, and still qualified pole because the track got wetter

that was our first and only pole position in 2024

[red wadi]

Hey Guys, besides F1 23 would anyone like to follow an non-F1 career of mine?

[floral apex]

you're gonna start isrfasting in wec

New word unlocked

[keen brook]

even more ridiculous than IsrFast

[red wadi]

Btw BVB, can I make a forum in #953039837085200484 for it? So that the storylines can be a bit longer?

[floral apex]

mate's gonna dominate indycar so hard they have to make a new chassis design

[red wadi]

wish Indy had a game now

[keen brook]

What I would like to have is a FE game.

[keen brook]

[floral apex]

the only game i know that has FE in it is RR3

[keen brook]

yeah

[red wadi]

Refactor 2:

[floral apex]

i just remember it because i couldnt keep myself together when i heard the engine noises

[red wadi]

Well RFactor only has like 4 FE tracks

[red wadi]

RR3/FM7/RF2

[floral apex]

and also because i spent a bit looking at how weird FE pit lanes are

[keen brook]

A fully licensed FE game would be cool.

[red wadi]

Cheers

[keen brook]

like with all tracks, all cars, all drivers, attack mode, quali duels etc

[floral apex]

if someone makes that pls not ea

[keen brook]

Yeah, they let you pay for recharging.

[floral apex]

pit stops are just roadside recharging stations

[keen brook]

1kW = 1€

[red wadi]

Milestone pls make FE frfr

[floral apex]

just look at this pit lane for the paris eprix circuit

[red wadi]

Lmao

[floral apex]

attack mode is 10 euros

i dont have the symbol on my keyboard lol

damn wtf is my keyboard

its got dollars, cents and british pounds but no euros

im looking through the twitter generators

woah i just checked the performance chart and ferrari and merc came out of nowhere

[floral apex]

i like how funny this is
Ocon leads the championship
and his former team sits at the back
meanwhile logan sargeant's own former team sits at the back of the WCC

[keen brook]

And Sargeant is even in Esteban's previous car.

He even is car 1 at Alpine.

[floral apex]

alpine moment

[rare robin]

every other team has scored except alpine

[floral apex]

alpine moment

*alpine when its not a wet brazil race moment

[rare robin]

this is the 3rd race in a row

[floral apex]

i think ocon's made a home out of the pit lane

[rare robin]

it's probably a glitch

[floral apex]

nah i think he just lives there now

[keen brook]

I've heard about that being a bug for the player.

That once you do one it's stuck forever.

[floral apex]

thats odd

[keen brook]

But then I also saw it not being an issue for aarava.

[rare robin]

1 lap after the start

[floral apex]

classic bottom 3

[rare robin]

i would have been expecting zhou to be down there too

but he's P10

[floral apex]

zhoints!

[rare robin]

stroll how did you damage the engine

[floral apex]

stroll moment

earlier i wanted to try recreating max's brazil masterclass in f1 23
but i accidentally qualified 10th instead of 17th

[rare robin]

gasly crashed

[rare robin]

you could just knock yourself out in Q1

good enough

[keen brook]

lol

9 teams voted for the technical reg change.

only McLaren voted against it

Never seen such an one-sided vote for the technical reg change.

[floral apex]

FIA: so we have a new set of regs here what do yall think
9 teams: yep we like it
McLaren, for some reason: no no no pls we want something different

[rare robin]

alpines chances for points went down even more, ocon's only P19

all drivers also like terminal damage for some reason

[floral apex]

this is unintentionally perfect

[rare robin]

just got news about this

[floral apex]

yep

[keen brook]

So in F1 26, if that will even be a thing, you would create in My Team a 12th team.

[floral apex]

monaco gonna feel a bit more crowded

bruh im on sim damage how did i not get damage from hitting the wall

this should guarantee a Q1 exit

bruh i just crashed in front of a bunch of marshals and THEYRE NOT EVEN LOOKING AT ME

Ok good

I even qualified P17

[keen brook]

Marshalls: This is fine.

[floral apex]

The best part is
They were looking towards the area i was crashing into
And then once i crashed they all just collectively turned away

[keen brook]

[floral apex]

Like it was the funniest sht i ever saw
They were watching me crash
And then once i stopped they looked away like they were disappointed by max crashing

The crash itself was also interesting
I turned off traction control for it to work

So i spun to the left in a right hander

[rare robin]

the top 3 fight

[rare robin]

this is what happened:

[red wadi]

I won’t be updating my F1M24/F1 23 saves today

I’m facing some personal issues right now

[keen brook]

damn

[floral apex]

i got what might be one of the smallest reg changes ever
Only two parts are affected and its like fairly minor

Clearly the FIA is trying really hard to end our dominance

[keen brook]

Every other dominance: Massive reg change, we need to stop them.
Sunwest dominance: cool

[rare robin]

a crash

[red wadi]

Yeah it’s a bit much rn

[rare robin]

both alpines are out..

ocon and mansell crash into each other (mansell's still racing)

i'll stop here and continue this tomorrow

[keen brook]

Red Bull gives you wrong wings.

[floral apex]

Ocon WDC?!?!?!?!?

[keen brook]

I hope so.

This stat is actually hilarious.

Every driver who has won a Sprint has won 2.

No one has only 1 Sprint win.

[floral apex]

"So hiw many sprints do you guys want to win?"
"Two"
"Perfect we can get on with that"

[keen brook]

This shows it better.

[floral apex]

I made myself imagine all of these drivers having a meeting and agreeing to only win two sprints each

[keen brook]

[floral apex]

Ricciardo wasn't invited to the meeting

[keen brook]

This is btw 2024 and 2025 together.

[floral apex]

yeah i knew it had to be multiple seasons

You only get 6 sprints per season

and that totals to 12

[keen brook]

Well, makes sense if it's 6 drivers with 2 wins each that it's 2 seasons.

Now it's time to find out something very important.

How much affiliates are there that have a higher rating than a main driver in the same team?

[floral apex]

"Welcome back to the podcast, today we have Haas team principal BVBOcon38 here to discuss his team's championship potential"

[keen brook]

OK, it's only Martins 81 rated and O'Ward 77 rated.

Schumacher 74 rated as main driver

And Bortoleto has the same rating with 74 as well.

But Hadjar is close to Ricciardo.

Hadjar 76, Ricciardo 77

So McLaren is the only team with higher rated affiliates than a main driver and it's even 2 affiliates.

Highest rated affiliates are Antonelli and Pourchaire with 83, both at Mercedes.

But their main drivers Verstappen 91 and Norris 86 have both higher ratings.

Piastri is the highest rated driver with 92.

[keen brook]

And on top of that they even have a 3rd affiliate with the same rating.

They really need to fire Schumacher.

They literally have 3 better affiliates than him.

[shut ridge]

Why won't anyone buy me F1 24 :((

😭

[heavy shoal]

because no one wanna waste money on that pile of shit

regionalism at its finest

[split bay]

playing f1 23, in my career racing in austria, my MGU-H is at 63%, should i replace it now, or no

it’s the lightest shade of yellow instead of green ever

i can barely notice the yellow

carlbot sainz says yes

[floral apex]

do you do medium length races?

[split bay]

yeah

[floral apex]

i think you should be good at 63%
i did do a full season with medium length sessions and didn't get a full mechanical failure once (but i did get mechanical problems)

[keen brook]

Schumacher locked up into Verstappen, taking Verstappen out of the race and getting a 5 second time penalty.

[keen brook]

Sainz went wide.

mechanical issue for Ollie

severe gearbox issue

[floral apex]

i like how thats the only thing that happened

[raven fern]

one question, why does everybody here have their game in german, or am i so lucky/unlucky that i've only seen videos from people with the game in german

[floral apex]

It could be that some of the most active F1M players here are German

[keen brook]

mechanical issue for Esteban

severe gearbox issue

Minì replaced Hamilton in FP at Ferrari, Rey replaced Leclerc in FP at Ferrari and O'Sullivan replaced Zhou in FP at Alpine.

Going into the Sprint qualifying, Esteban and Ollie need now their 2nd engine and gearbox.

Leclerc spun.

[keen brook]

Sainz spun.

Going into the qualifying, Ollie needs now his 2nd ERS and 3rd gearbox.

thank you Ricciardo for destroying a brand new gearbox

[rare robin]

wait.. how many rounds to go?

[keen brook]

China

so round 4

[rare robin]

THAT QUICKLY

[keen brook]

Just swapped to the 2nd gearbox ahead of Sprint quali.

And then Ricciardo rear-ended Ollie in the Sprint and now a brand new gearbox is completely destroyed.

[rare robin]

damn.. ok

[keen brook]

And also the ERS got down to 21%.

So that can now only be used for practices anymore.

Crashes with the rear are always deadly for the engine components.

[rare robin]

what is race control on

[keen brook]

That's quite some final laps.

Lap 33 was 3 final laps, lol.

[rare robin]

norris and verstappen are fighting for p1, while alonso fell behind and lost p3

[floral apex]

ricciardo did a stroll

[floral apex]

someone left the intern on the "final lap" button

[rare robin]

norris wins

[floral apex]

who knew the race could end on lap 7, 34, 37 and 38

[floral apex]

alpine double dnf

like ONLY them

[rare robin]

their incidents were big enough to DNF them

this is what happened to ocon

he still could drive the car, just spun into a wall while trying to rejoin

max extends his lead in the championship by 8 points

the top 4 in the constructors are seperated by just 20 points

while alpine are still the only ones with 0 points

[keen brook]

Esteban comes to a stop: phew, all good
Tries to continue: rocket launcher activated, boom

[rare robin]

the results are in

the left option has been voted in favour

[floral apex]

Esteban tries to continue
his car for no reason whatsoever: oh look a wall would be a shame if i just...
Esteban: wtf mate

[rare robin]

by 7 teams

[floral apex]

i like how the teams that voted against are two top teams and two backmarkers

[rare robin]

i'll try researching 1 of these to see what happens

it doesn't even want to increase

engine cooling and tyre preservation are really the only ones under threat by this

[floral apex]

Your team presenting next years car:
its literally last year's car with like one changed angle

[rare robin]

fr

that's not anti-clockwise!

[floral apex]

no no you see they decided to try doing this circuit backwards for a change

[rare robin]

LOL

[floral apex]

strange change but it would be interesting to see how it plays out

[vernal cave]

Lies

[floral apex]

of1d out of context

[rare robin]

ocon got to 3 already somehow

[vernal cave]

[floral apex]

"so how many engine components do you want to use"
"all of them."
"what the f-"

[vernal cave]

Please tell me you aren't alpine

[rare robin]

i'm not

[floral apex]

iirc hes a custom team called "indycar"

[vernal cave]

You can leave the team init

Williams career is fucking cooking

Kmag p7 in Australia

And this

[floral apex]

my team has been dominating for the last 5 seasond

[vernal cave]

Ah thank god

[rare robin]

so far.. they're the worst team

[floral apex]

wow look they added COTA 2.0

[vernal cave]

22 points behind 🔥

[floral apex]

the constructors championship in my save

alpine is 11th with one point

[vernal cave]

Fighting aston martin for 6th in the constructors I think

[floral apex]

oh i just noticed they finally fixed this sentence

before, the part where the custom team name is would just be left blank

[keen brook]

Nah, they added Miami 3.0.

[rare robin]

it's round 5 not 7

[floral apex]

hmmm

right i forgot the US had a state called Emilia Romagna

[vernal cave]

2025 do we sack kmag and bring russell back?

[vernal cave]

Guam

[floral apex]

Guam

[rare robin]

stroll still has that "damaged engine" on him

i guess it will stay with him.. until he crashes again

that's totally legal

[floral apex]

potential affiliates run plan

theres no swedish gp so the closest i could get to sweden was zandvoort
lindblad does have a dual nationality apparently

[keen brook]

yes

He drives under a British license but also has Swedish roots.

[floral apex]

so i could double affiliate in silverstone and call it a day

[keen brook]

yeah

He also is actually more British as he can't even speak Swedish.

[floral apex]

ok that works
i brought the sprint back to austria which means i can do silverstone

[keen brook]

And I think he also has never been in Sweden.

But that part I'm not completely sure of.

[floral apex]

that reddawn costa rica career mode guy be like

[rare robin]

mansell came out of nowhere.. and sergio perez sprint pole!

[keen brook]

Sargeant spun.

Zhou locked up.

[keen brook]

Max demoted to RB

[vernal cave]

YES VERSTAPPEN IN AN RB. YEEES

[keen brook]

Piastri locked up.

[floral apex]

i think antonelli just fking got stuck on a kerb

he has major underfloor damage and only that

[keen brook]

Yeah and that's enough to retire.

[floral apex]

sunwest sandwich 🎉

[keen brook]

Piastri went wide.

[floral apex]

the car has incredible pace omg

[keen brook]

damn, Kimi out of his home race😭

[floral apex]

max in the rolls royce after vegas (before GP showed up)

[floral apex]

antonelli drove for 3 minutes before promptly taking himself out

we got 5 gearboxes allocated lmao

bruh what the fok is happening

[keen brook]

China qualifying result of my Haas career

[keen brook]

damn

He really has a home race weekend to forget.😭

[floral apex]

thats Antonelli out in Q1
our first Q1 exit since probably 2025

[keen brook]

damn

Strategies are for Esteban , for Ollie .

[floral apex]

bruh

[keen brook]

It's lights out and away we go!

damn, double DNF

[floral apex]

wait

we can still do Q3

i just repaired Max's car and he can do Q3

[keen brook]

lol

[floral apex]

Max really just ended Q2 early so he could get provisional pole

nobody else goes out after the first runs, that's Max on pole position

[keen brook]

crash

Bottas and Gasly

Bottas terminal damage, Gasly severe damage

[floral apex]

Max will start from the pit lane due to having to take a slew of new parts from his Q2 crash

[keen brook]

Bottas gets a 5 second time penalty.

Bottas front wing change

now no damage anymore

[keen brook]

Max got pole with a DNF in Q2.

[keen brook]

damn

[floral apex]

game didn't really think this one through
there seems to be a lot of missing text

uh... warning sign and a 1

yup that makes perfect sense

[keen brook]

Gasly front wing change

now no damage anymore

[floral apex]

strategies

[keen brook]

2.183 for Ollie

[floral apex]

this game still got a few bugs to iron out
it put Max on the grid as "22nd" despite the fact he's actually on pit lane start

it's lights out and away we go!

[keen brook]

2.480 for Esteban

[floral apex]

and Max leaves the pits to start his race

i like how the game treated it as a pit stop kinda

[keen brook]

yeah

There even comes then the outlap radio messages.

[floral apex]

yeah i saw those

[keen brook]

So in Monaco the race engineer says then 78 laps to go.

[floral apex]

also you want to know how fast max is

he took a pit lane start and one lap later he's already within half a second of P21

[red wadi]

Ido Cohen ahh pace

[keen brook]

When I had Pérez starting from the pit lane he already caught up after half a lap.

[floral apex]

lap 3 he's made it to P20

he's ironically being held up by his own teammate

Max passes Ocon for P19

[red wadi]

Ido Cohen would’ve led by now (kill me)

Ido Cohen lives rent free in my head

[floral apex]

max and kimi driver swap

[keen brook]

mechanical issue for Sargeant

[floral apex]

Max passes Iwasa for P17

he's passed Stroll for P16

[keen brook]

mechanical issue for Ricciardo

[floral apex]

Max is now in a DRS train with Gasly, both Alpines and Iwasa

[keen brook]

2.189 for Esteban

[red wadi]

Lmao

[floral apex]

and Antonelli has picked up floor damage again of course

and the rain has started

yeah Max is P8 now also

[keen brook]

2.393 for Ollie

[floral apex]

and only one car has pitted

Max is up to P3 now after the pit stops

Max Verstappen takes the lead of the Imola GP!

[keen brook]

mechanical issue for Sargeant

severe now

Stroll spun into the wall.

Stroll out

[floral apex]

we're ending this race on inters despite the drying track

[floral apex]

From starting from the pit lane
Max Verstappen wins the Emilia Romagna Grand Prix!

hey i got the podium anim again

[keen brook]

crash

Schumacher and Verstappen

both terminal damage

[keen brook]

Schumacher gets a 5 second time penalty.

Schumacher out

[floral apex]

the two teams that still haven't scored a pit stop point

[keen brook]

Verstappen front wing change

now no damage anymore

[floral apex]

Max really took a pit lane start and went on to WIN the damn race

[keen brook]

Esteban Ocon wins the Chinese Grand Prix! And it's even a 1-2!🥳

[mint token]

How did you even get a pit lane start

[keen brook]

New feature that got added in the latest patch.

championship fight after the 2026 Chinese Grand Prix

[floral apex]

3 drivers on the brink of being banned

[keen brook]

yeah

I honestly thought after the crash with Verstappen Schumacher is banned for Miami.

But then I realized he only got 1 penalty point so he's just at 11.

I'm not sure who would step in for Sargeant.

For Schumacher it definitely would be Martins.

and for Ricciardo Hadjar

For Sargeant it would be either O'Sullivan or Stanek.

wait no

I looked at the season 2 grid.

Stanek isn't an affiliate anymore at any team.

So it would be O'Sullivan, Aron or Martí.

[floral apex]

How funny would it be if all 3 drivers got banned at the same time

That would surely be an F1 record

[floral apex]

Ocons really running away with it

[keen brook]

Miami is a Sprint weekend, so 2 chances for Sargeant, Ricciardo and Schumacher to pick up a penalty.

Well, in Ricciardo's case he also needs to take someone out or needs to make contact with 2 drivers and getting penalized.

As he needs 2 penalty points for a ban.

or

It's even 4 drivers.

Sainz just needs to do what Tsunoda did in Vegas 2024 and take out 3 drivers.

[floral apex]

or he could do what happened in my save and take out seven cars

[keen brook]

That would be 14 penalty points.

That would be 2 bans at once.

And in the system how I do it that would be a 3 races ban.

As 12 penalty points are a 1 race ban and then 24 a 2 races ban etc.

[floral apex]

That still remains the single greatest moment in my F1M playthrough

when Iwasa and Perez decided they'd just wipe out half the grid

[floral apex]

Not even Max going from pit lane to race win beats that

[floral apex]

apparently with rules off you can just block the pit lane so now i made this scene

[floral apex]

doing a full length Austrian GP in F1 23

i set it to start dry and then rain part way into the race

and suddenly 18 laps in theres a red flag

Gasly and Albon managed to take each other out

[floral apex]

just won the full length austrian gp

the podium was me (Max), Lewis and Fernando

here are the race results

so the red flag was caused by Gasly spinning out in turn 2, and Albon right behind him decided to just smash straight into him

so Gasly's spun, and Albon is turning right

and then for some reason he then turns left straight into the Alpine

[split bay]

math is not mathing (check verstappens time)

yes ik i need to charge my phone

[keen brook]

Bottas spun into the wall and out of the Sprint.

Then Ricciardo locked up into Ollie and Verstappen, taking all 3 out of the race, causing a puncture, terminal gearbox damage and also damaged the chassis, rear wing and suspension, getting a 5 place grid penalty for the race.

Then Stroll spun into the wall and out of the race.

And then Schumacher and Verstappen came together, taking Schumacher out of the race and giving Schumacher a 3 place grid penalty for Miami.

Esteban's Sprint and race win in China

[keen brook]

Chloe out of FP

Another FP for Chloe, Caeiro replaced Ricciardo in FP at Red Bull, Davis replaced Sainz in FP at Red Bull, Martins replaced Schumacher in FP at McLaren, Rey replaced Hamilton in FP at Ferrari, Montoya replaced Pérez in FP at RB, Tramnitz replaced Gasly in FP at Aston Martin and Colapinto replaced Lawson in FP at Kick Sauber.

oh god first we get a haas 1-2 and now a williams 1-2 ?!?!?

[vernal cave]

If Alex fucks this up istg

[rare robin]

the fighting down that straight is crazy

[vernal cave]

Kmag engine failure

red flag

[floral apex]

well thats a start

[rare robin]

if someone messes up at the hairpin, cars just pile up

[floral apex]

goddamn

and i once had a 7-car pileup
but it was unmodded and at Vegas

[keen brook]

New strategy for Esteban is .

[floral apex]

i wonder what the biggest number of pit stops someone can do in f1 manager

[keen brook]

77

pitting every lap in Monaco

[floral apex]

yeah thought so

[keen brook]

As you can swap back to used tires, I don't see why that shouldn't be possible.

[vernal cave]

subtlety restarting the race

[keen brook]

oh, getting lapped

[rare robin]

esteban starts P22 after setting no time

[floral apex]

that moment when you casually have the next world champion chilling in your junior team

[keen brook]

You need a car that's so fast that it equals out a pit stop in a single lap.

So that you don't get lapped.

[vernal cave]

Hulkenberg qualified p3 Holy shit

[floral apex]

imagine at the end
77 pit stops
+29 laps

oh an F2 update: Pulling takes the lead of the F2 championship

Bortoleto is the only one not on in the top ten being 12th

[keen brook]

The thing is, if you get lapped, you can't do 77 pit stops anymore.

Because you won't reach that lap.

[floral apex]

oh truee

[keen brook]

So you would need a car that equals out a pit stop in a single lap.

A car that gaps the field by over 20 seconds in a single lap.

and that on the shortest track

[floral apex]

if someone is willing to test that out using a modded car

[keen brook]

Lawson went wide.

mechanical issue for Doohan

[rare robin]

the cars i'm using might work

[keen brook]

crash

Doohan and Lawson

Lawson out

[floral apex]

you could test this theory but every other ai car needs to be slow or normal speed for it to work properly

[rare robin]

remember this?

[rare robin]

the alpine can't even reach 300s in top speed

[keen brook]

It's lights out and away we go!

[rare robin]

is this nascar

New strategies are for Esteban , for Ollie .

no penalties given

i just accidentally found the keyboard shortcut for minimizing the driver menu tabs and got confused as to how i did that lmao

[keen brook]

[floral apex]

wow very exciting FP1

[rare robin]

that changed quickly

[floral apex]

sargeant p3

oh and theres everyone

only took them a good 20 minutes to finally exit the pits

[keen brook]

Norris spun into the wall.

[keen brook]

It's lights out and away we go!

[rare robin]

how did this happen

[floral apex]

mate got abandoned

[rare robin]

his pace was consistently slow

or maybe he lost DRS after a lap

[floral apex]

yeah

guess he lost the slipstream

[red wadi]

Canada, guess who’s in my pfp

[floral apex]

eh

[red wadi]

Just guess

I’ll give you a hint if you don’t guess it right

[floral apex]

wow such a nice view of the rolex clock

[red wadi]

Wow

[floral apex]

points sandwich

[rare robin]

just be 2nd at the back straight on the final lap

[floral apex]

is it your WRC career mode guy

[red wadi]

Nah WRC guy is fictional

[rare robin]

you should be able to overtake the leader (if you have DRS)

[red wadi]

Hint: 10+ time WDC

ANOTHER ONE

[keen brook]

Miami pit stops of my Haas career

current DHL fastest pit stop award standings

That race really hurt out in the fastest pit stop award.

Because the only pit stop we had was Esteban's front wing change.

The rest were tire changes under the 3 red flags.

That was also the craziest Miami GP I've ever had.

[primal drift]

how many were for someone crashing at turn 8?

[keen brook]

2

[primal drift]

[vernal cave]

My honest reaction

[keen brook]

The head of aero's rating went up.

[rare robin]

ocon started from the pits 4 times in a row

[keen brook]

damn😭

[vernal cave]

Average weekend for ocon ig

[raven fern]

is 1:29.6 good for imola? i had a go with this year's mercedes in assetto corsa, and i dont play that much assetto corsa and it was also my 1st time with manual gearbox in a not GT3 car (except for that one lotus that is there in assetto corsa without mods or anything)

[raven fern]

for monza*

[floral apex]

i nean for your first go that isnt that bad

You were 10 seconds off the actual mercedes in monza this year

[raven fern]

now im gonna have a go in F1 23

for comparison

but i aint trying manual gearbox

[raven fern]

lmao i got 1:23.303 in F1 23 without ERS and DRS and this wasn't even my best

i mean in assetto corsa i didnt have DRS either

and idk abt ERS

[golden hare]

That happens a lot at Monza in particular, it can be quite confusing when the Driver X - Retired message comes up instead of a crash or smth. Major damage to any part can cause a DNF I believe.

[keen brook]

It depends on the part.

Front wing is even terminal not a DNF.

obviously

[golden hare]

Yeah ofc

[keen brook]

But also suspension is only terminal a DNF.

same for rear wing

Sidepod I'm not sure, happens too rare.

[past dove]

what pedals should i buy

[keen brook]

But chassis and floor are severe already a DNF.

[rare robin]

ok..

[floral apex]

this is a goofy image

max on an inlap, bearman on an outlap

[rare robin]

colapinto and ricciardo crash

both are still racing, colapinto has a puncture

1 lap later, tsunoda and norris had another incident

norris is down to 20th.

[keen brook]

The technical chief's rating went up.

[rare robin]

Safety Car.

zhou crashed

magnussen just waited in his pit box for so long

he fell down about 9 places

the top 10 feel completely normal

[floral apex]

yeah thats a surprisingly normal top 10

[rare robin]

and another crash

[rare robin]

sainz crashes at the exact same place tsunoda did

oh, he just left the pits and crashed

how do you end up there

well that's colapinto's race over

and max wins

[floral apex]

lmao albon is wearing his williams helmet at audi

[rare robin]

he's a spy!

[floral apex]

now his helmet is the normal audi one what

[rare robin]

everything seems normal

except bottas P8

[floral apex]

lol

[rare robin]

max extends his lead

the season's ending already?

[rare robin]

i had to use a previous version of database editor to see this

this is why the front runners were performing beter all of a sudden

ok, nevermind. they weren't using the new parts even if they had one

this seems to be the reason why it's breaking:

if this affects the save permanently, i might have to restart from round 1
