[fallow breach]

which means theyre gonna go ahead of xenon

probably

[floral apex]

one more race and the 2031 season is complete
here are the detailed championship results

[fallow breach]

which will mean we go from simming 1-2s in 2028 to simming 3-4s by the end of 2028 to simming 7-8s on the best of days in 2029 to maybe not even getting points in simmed races

[floral apex]

this is the other side of the curve

[fallow breach]

ferrari esque depression

maybe we should have switched to Renault power

[fallow breach]

dp started as the guy who could get poles but not wins

then he became the winning machine in 2026-8

2029 he still won like 10 or so races

but it was close for the title

and now 2030 i fear he regresses to the bottler again

[floral apex]

nah instead he'll get wins but not poles

either that or you smash the front wing every race

and retire

from f1

[fallow breach]

dp goes on a dp73 arc

[floral apex]

imagine if dp just sells the team and leaves f1

or he moves to mclaren himself to see why they're so much better

[fallow breach]

xenon becomes pellegrini

[fallow breach]

i wish i could do that in myteam

[floral apex]

f1 game: the player driver cannot drive more than 10 seasons in one save
the ais: lewis is 45 and still driving

[fallow breach]

speaking of ages

when we defined dp's age

was he 18 on debut or did he turn 18 in 2024

[floral apex]

i guess he was 18 on debut

Which makes him 24 in 2030

[fallow breach]

this means he turned 19 in 2024

first win was age 19
first title was age 21

[floral apex]

so hes 25 in 2030

[fallow breach]

hes 24 rn turning 25 at the miami weekend

[latent glacier]

hi, today i tried assisted start for the first time.
i do not understand how it works

1. i press clutch
2. i press accelerator
   when race starts, my car doesnt move unless i take off both and tap accelerator again. how is it supposed to work?

[floral apex]

You're supposed to only release the clutch
If you have manual gearbox then you'll also have to shift up

[fallow breach]

guess whether this is simmed or player control

dp wins by 32 seconds

best case scenario, a perfect weekend for anyone as low as merc would send them into the lead

i believe 59 is the max constructor score on a sprint weekend right?

[keen brook]

1.960 for Ollie

[fallow breach]

Mercedes in P6 are 41 points shy of the championship lead.

[fallow breach]

It does look like the battle is straightening a little more now, merc and redbull seem to be in their own fight behind the top 4

Aston Martin are the most consistent and performing on the grid rn

Sainz has 58, Stroll has 51

It's no surprise they lead the title

Lando is heavily carrying Ferrari, Bearman and DP are kind of carrying McLaren and Xenon, Oscar is carrying Red Bull, and Merc are consistent between the two but not high enough

[keen brook]

[fallow breach]

i mean ocon beat 7 time world champion lewis hamilton in equal machinery last season in half a season for goodness sake

there are 3 world champions on the 2030 grid:
4 time champion DP, in 3rd in the championship
7 time champion Hamilton, in 7th in the championship
And 4 time champion Verstappen, in 11th in the championship

[floral apex]

its two drivers who have one team in common but have never raced on the same team

[keen brook]

Albon and Gasly?

[floral apex]

i like how irl teams announce their new signings but in f1 manager we wait until the season change to announce the new lineups

[fallow breach]

it took checo becoming a free agent, sitting on the sidelines for a season and coming back in a different team to be ahead of max

The switch comes as a shock but not very surprising since Long Beach happened, LMP2 lost a real one but ay, curious what PM-L are gonna cook

[fallow breach]

im thinking of like pretending illness/injury happens to f1 drivers and reserves have to step in

i mean i have fgc so its possible to just rely on that for the championship standings if i were to do that

maybe this is the pellegrini cameo??

[keen brook]

Russell locked up.

[fallow breach]

or maybe this is just a general way to incorporate drivers not actually on the driver market

[floral apex]

i mean yeah you can do this

[red wadi]

[keen brook]

championship fight after the 2027 Chinese Grand Prix

[floral apex]

and off gabi goes again

[keen brook]

Well, Gabi is not only 3 ratings higher.

His development rate is very high and Ollie's only high.

So it is to expect the gap between them will become even bigger.

In SQ3 Gabi locked up, causing light floor damage.

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

Then Ollie spun into the wall and out of the race, causing a front and rear right puncture, terminal chassis damage, terminal front wing damage and terminal suspension damage.

And then Gasly spun into the wall and out of the race.

Ollie's Sprint win and Gabi's race win in China

[floral apex]

I guess thats a successful weekend?

You got both drivers a win

[keen brook]

yeah

[surreal lantern]

Oh we are cooked

[floral apex]

I will do the final race of the 2031 season tomorrow

And then we see what chaos 2032 has to brinf

Rather interesting Quali im having here

Stroll is 1,4 seconds behind p1 in Quali

he starts in p4

[forest root]

i lapped cars 2 times in f1 24

I won by a little is what you can say

as lewis

[surreal lantern]

Aint able to do the stuff you lads are since im on console but results from round 1 and cheeky double overtake last corner for p6. Considering the car idk how thats happened

[empty fulcrum]

3 wins in 4 races

[keen brook]

Somehow in this save Stroll is still at Aston.

[fallow breach]

From 6 seasons, DP has 5 wins and a 2nd around Imola, so this could be a good result for Xenon

[quaint hare]

because i couldn’t Exit the stupid pit box and fell to p21

[fallow breach]

oh yeah hes at aston in mine too

[keen brook]

Whilst in my Haas save he moved to RB in 2025 already.

[fallow breach]

For me Tsunoda is his teammate.

[quaint hare]

whats worse is that i made an error when signing my teammate mid season. And now im stuck with Arron Barnes

[keen brook]

damn

[quaint hare]

the shitty 25 rated driver

[keen brook]

yeah

1 of the generic reserves

Who are only 25 rated.

[quaint hare]

and the personell bonuses. DONT EVEN APPLY TO HIM

[keen brook]

I think it's because they aren't supposed to have development.

[fallow breach]

i started a sim save last night

s1 is going as you'd expect, with Verstappen winning every race up to Miami except one (that was won by Lando)

[quaint hare]

i couldnt even sign drugovich again because my car was that baf

i shouldve signed Lawson

[keen brook]

I had that once with Ilott in F1 2021.

[fallow breach]

and that one was a verstappen dnf in the season opener

[keen brook]

Had to sign Shwartzman mid-season then.

Ironically both of them ended up at Haas for the 2nd season.

the 2021 Haas

The good old times where the Codies F1 games were still good.

[fallow breach]

My car was 7th in performance comparison (everyone ahead is VERY bunched up) at the end of 2029 so we couldnt re-sign Lando

so we just took a third driver away from mclaren by signing russell

[quaint hare]

Arron barnes is so bad he doesnt even get a name. Just „the reserve driver“

oh shit

he doesnt even get resource points from practice

He retired from retirement.

So Sainz won

But

The gaps of the bottom 3 to P1 are crazy

20 Gasly +29.959
21 Iwasa +59.787
22 Zhou +1:01.678

thirty seconds behind p20 is wild 😭

[keen brook]

realistic Kick Sauber performance

Xenon feel 'slightly underwhelmed' by Russell; say that 'replacement is on the cards'

[floral apex]

what kinda modern art is that graph

[quaint hare]

The regulation change graph. Its graphic

[fallow breach]

very abstract

i've just realised btw: Monaco 2030 was DP's career worst finish.

(i still count spain 26 as a dnf)

[quaint hare]

Norris got a grid penalty

in the first race

[fallow breach]

Not much is currently known as to their intentions, however with a contract window looming between Austria and Great Britain, Russell may be at risk of being dropped if his results do not take an upturn.

[floral apex]

Pellegrini has a puncture!

[fallow breach]

nooo pelley

[floral apex]

he's hit the wall and has damage

[fallow breach]

However the question must be asked: who on earth can Xenon replace him with?

It must be known that the team are 7th in the performance comparison, which is below the threshold both notable ex-drivers Norris and Piastri, as well as Max Verstappen, who has been a high-profile target of theirs since even 2025, require to accept advances.

Anyway, onto Austria.
