[quaint hare]

@fallow breach Seven

[fallow breach]

seven?

[fallow breach]

AND IT'S VERSTAPPEN?!

[quaint hare]

yes

[fallow breach]

WHAT THE HELL

i have been risen from a half asleep state for this

that is worth it as hell

what.

[quaint hare]

its insane

red bull cant be that bad

theyre 2nd in performance

[fallow breach]

thats simulated as well right?

[quaint hare]

yeah

i dont drive 100% races

[fallow breach]

thats even stranger

[quaint hare]

DAMN

reg changes

3 departments

[fallow breach]

as you said, red bull, 2nd in performance, not the type of team to have their lead driver 7 laps down

is sainz at red bull as well or is that a similar colour team?

[quaint hare]

id say hamilton is the lead red bull driver

[quaint hare]

sainz is at williams

[fallow breach]

ah right

[fallow breach]

fair

i said lead bc he's moreso the first one you'd associate to red bull

(even though hes been to some strange places in some sims)

[quaint hare]

yeah. But the best championship positions hes had was runner up

WHAT

Alpinw is now 2nd in performance

[fallow breach]

alpine??

[quaint hare]

alpine

also mclaren is dominating

[fallow breach]

who drives for them even

[quaint hare]

norris and bottas

norris even has 2 wins for alpine

[fallow breach]

damnnn

[fallow breach]

semi expected

[quaint hare]

1 in season 2. and 1 in season 3

[quaint hare]

their deivers are Riccardo and lawson.

Lawson has only had half a season of experience

[fallow breach]

yeahhh that part isnt as expected HUH

[quaint hare]

the last 5 races were 1-2 for McLaren + fastest lap

verstappen hasnt won since canada season 1

[floral apex]

Le Castellet? Nah, Leclercstellet

[fallow breach]

thats a stacked red bull team on paper tho Verstappen and Hamilton

[quaint hare]

actually fun fact

Mercedes has 2 wcc

theyve only bean the fastest car for 1 race during those 2 seasons

[fallow breach]

literally what i think every time i see those 3 letters by the french gp

[quaint hare]

texas season 1

[floral apex]

McLaren are the Down Under lineup

[quaint hare]

yup. And its working

also sorry for interrupting your sleep

[floral apex]

Technically thats the biblically accurate McLaren lineup

Because Bruce McLaren was a Kiwi

[quaint hare]

ah. Yeah funny

[fallow breach]

yuki and albon as an aston martin team are literally the main two that i've seen go to the team in my career saves generally

separately

[quaint hare]

yeah. They happen so often

[fallow breach]

interestingly i've done at least in part like 4 myteam saves and i have never gotten anything like Hamilton to Ferrari

[quaint hare]

I have only once

and in f1 2020 once

[fallow breach]

though the xenon save has seen some interesting moves as i've mentioned a few times before, as has the sim save i completed

[quaint hare]

yeah. Some moves can be quite interesting

[fallow breach]

interestingly a lot of the moves in the xenon save were midseason

[quaint hare]

6 1-2 for mclaren in a row now

They have the wcc with 5 races left

oh damn

gasly breaks that streak

with verstappen p2

but ricciardo from 15 to 3

[fallow breach]

i think the most notable one was like i think 2029 or 2030 midseason, one of the two, when there were 3 moves at big teams at once, i think it was like Piastri to Red Bull, Sargeant or someone interesting like that to Ferrari, and Ocon to Merc happening at the same time iirc

[quaint hare]

i alao currently have logan at Ferrari

He has 3 points

russell has 65

[floral apex]

i wonder what the driver market will look like beteeen my S2 and S3

[quaint hare]

norris gets another win for alpine

[floral apex]

So far only these changes hav3 occured in my save:

End of S1:

• Ocon to Haas
• Hulkenberg retires
  Middle of S2:
• Alonso retires
• Hauger to Aston

[fallow breach]

i've had Hulkenberg, Sargeant and Magnussen all be in Ferrari in second halves of seasons and really underperform

[quaint hare]

ive had magnussen win a wdc :D

[floral apex]

Apparently joining ferrari in the 2nd half of a season is cursed

[fallow breach]

im remembering when i focused on the xenon save, my team were really deadset on nabbing drivers from mclaren

that was sorta our thing

but funnily we didnt take alonso after his title in i think s2

we took oscar after s1

then we stuck with him until (for some reason) his best season in f1 before dropping him for lando norris

he underperformed so we brought in George Russell a season later, who also underperformed so we brought in Carlos Sainz from Aston Martin to replace him at midseason

[floral apex]

it became a minor meme where mclaren had become your driver academy

[fallow breach]

McLaren: fostering potential World Champions for Xenon since 2024

[floral apex]

bro was taking drivers from McLaren like you had an engine supplier deal with them

[fallow breach]

AND WE DIDN'T

WE WERE ALWAYS FERRARI POWERED

[floral apex]

And the best bit is: McLaren itself uses customer engines

[fallow breach]

arent mclaren a mercedes customer??

[floral apex]

They are yeh

I dont think AI teams change engine supplier in the f1 game

[quaint hare]

Lawson wins the wdc after 1,5 seasons

going into the final 2 races he was 43 points behind

[fallow breach]

oh yeah speaking of logan sargeant he moved to red bull in the new simsave im doing mid s1

[fallow breach]

but you wouldnt know it

bros scored nine points

NINE.

[quaint hare]

not many changes for season 4

Alonso-Gone
Magnussen-Aloha
Sainz-Haas
Theo-Williams

[floral apex]

Original teams of Sunwest Racing drivers (before joining the team):
Gasly:
Tsunoda:
Verstappen:
Antonelli: Academy
Pulling: Academy

[quaint hare]

BUT THE REGULATION CHANGES

[fallow breach]

gotta love gone f1 team

[floral apex]

They gonna have a heated rivalry with Retirement F1 with this signing 🔥

[quaint hare]

BRO HAAS

WHAT THE FUCK

WHAT

DUDE

wait this is funny

[fallow breach]

is that why sainz signed for them

[urban quarry]

Accurate

[fallow breach]

ferrari in 9th as well

while one of their customers, namely haas, are p3

[floral apex]

Alfa Romeo at the back of course

they're embracing the Sauber

[urban quarry]

At this point just let the team go 😭

[fallow breach]

haas are insane wtf

[floral apex]

Its not Ferrari powertrains now, its Haas powertrains

[fallow breach]

LITERALLY

[quaint hare]

thats durability

their engine is made of pure dismond at this point

[urban quarry]

Ayao really made an impact on haas

[floral apex]

Haas are better at maintaining their engines than their own supplier

[heavy shoal]

and not the kind of impacts Schumacher had 🙏

[urban quarry]

Oh ☹️

[fallow breach]

theyre gonna end up finishing the season only using 1 engine

[heavy shoal]

sorry i had to

[urban quarry]

😞

[heavy shoal]

the word impact triggered that response

[urban quarry]

I didn't even see Caterham in the graph at first

😭

[quaint hare]

its a sim careee

[fallow breach]

ah yes caterham fitting right in with the f1 grid

[floral apex]

that aint caterham, its dogerham

[urban quarry]

Whatttt no way

I thought Caterham came back!!

[quaint hare]

RED BULL DOMINANCE IS BACK

[fallow breach]

expected, theyre 1st in the charts

but surely it cant be that bad right

[fallow breach]

right?

okay i stand corrected wtf

[urban quarry]

Gasly

[fallow breach]

11 seconds from the worst red bull to the best non red bull

pierre goatsly from p15 🔥

[urban quarry]

Where Caterham?

[quaint hare]

3 laps down

[fallow breach]

probably p18-19 or something

[quaint hare]

20-22

[fallow breach]

depending on how many dnfs

[urban quarry]

Oh I was expecting something worse

[floral apex]

I simmed Hungary in my F1 23 save to see what would happen
With the fastest car, I went from P19 to P13 and Gasly went from P3 to DNF

[fallow breach]

eh fair

[quaint hare]

jesus

[fallow breach]

damn

[quaint hare]

that dominance

2 tenths faster for the fastest laps

[floral apex]

the teammate chemistry red bull wanted

[floral apex]

Only drivers to set sub-1:28 laps

[quaint hare]

HAAS????????????

SECONF???

[fallow breach]

now this must be what red bull were envisioning when they signed norris in the other sim career i did

[quaint hare]

HASS GOT THE BEST CHASSIS

[fallow breach]

just give haas the right of ownership of the ferrari operation atp

[quaint hare]

Haas engines

[floral apex]

Stop buying Ferrari supercars

also Calderon at Williams. You dont see her normally in f1

[fallow breach]

difference in format in the game, got it

guess you can thank caterham for her way in

[quaint hare]

No

I dropped her after season 1. then halfway through season 2 lawson was dropped for calderon

[fallow breach]

i use strikethroughs to denote sentences that aren't 100% serious

[quaint hare]

HAAS IS BEST IN ALL FOUR DEPARTMENTS

[fallow breach]

SAINZ

"expected."

[quaint hare]

i see you made no attempt to counter it

[floral apex]

oh rip

[robust mortar]

albon? i tried to get bottas to replace him but he was poached by RB, and then albon was poached by haas

so i just have to wait

[floral apex]

I've never had anyone get poached in my save

probably because i left all of the contracts at 0.5x buyout multiplier

[robust mortar]

so were all of mine

xenon seems to be a common sponsor cuz i have them in my myteam save as well

[fallow breach]

wouldnt have known that as i literally just turned my phone back on after charging it

[fallow breach]

[quaint hare]

theyre the best sponsor for newcomers

oh and charles has a point for sauber

[red wadi]

The longest time he has is 1h 30m, despite being quite close to eachother it’s gonna be quite tight

[floral apex]

aston martin got the most cooked lineup

Also daruvala to red bull again?!?

[fallow breach]

LOOK AT ASTON'S AERO WTF

[floral apex]

HWAT

[fallow breach]

heres the overall comparison

can you believe that vcarb was winning races at the hand of checo just last season

[red wadi]

They have to, he won’t make it in time

[fallow breach]

yeah charles went from ferrari to sauber

what a downgrade

back to his roots, sure

but damn

[quaint hare]

took me over 1000 hours of my team to find out that durability doesnt count towards overall performance

•_•

[red wadi]

Bro has 9 MINUTES to change from his NHRA gear to his F1 gear AND get in his F1 car, basically LV FP1 is a no go for AC

[fallow breach]

[quaint hare]

yes

they also all have similar logos

[fallow breach]

i didnt even realise that until JUST NOW

[quaint hare]

i have an extreme damage mod

Lawson was involved in 3 of the 4 total accidents. Hes still in the racw

[fallow breach]

Russell has pole in China from Stroll, Verstappen and Sargeant.

Then Daruvala is P5.

[floral apex]

He went back to sauber

[fallow breach]

yep

4 different pole sitters and 4 different winners (the poles are also the winners, but i dont think any of them actually got it from pole)

Verstappen, Norris, Piastri and Russell are the 4

[quaint hare]

fun fact: Hulk was at force india 4 seperate times

[fallow breach]

is this about his two FI stints, his racing point supersub and aston supersub?

or is this force india era only

[floral apex]

And thats not even considering potential traffic

[quaint hare]

those also count

[red wadi]

Exactly

Basically one red light and bro is done for😭 😭

[quaint hare]

12,14-16,20,22

hulk was also at sauber 2 times. 13,25

[red wadi]

Get someone like Drugo in that car instead, then Arthur won’t overwork himself

[floral apex]

Hulkenberg in 24-25:

Haas F1 Team Kick Sauber

[fallow breach]

so he was williams->force->sauber->force->renault->rp as sub->aston as sub->haas->sauber

[quaint hare]

honestly hülkenberg is better than alonso CURRENTLY. Hes just insane when driving shitboxes

[fallow breach]

i can agree with that

a lot of the time people underestimate the shitbox drivers

[quaint hare]

yeah

[fallow breach]

but when put in good machinery i bet they could shine

[quaint hare]

Bearman too in baku

[fallow breach]

i will say the fact he scored in baku was slightly luck induced, but the fact he beat nico was a skill showing

[quaint hare]

yeah. I mean the rp in 2020. he had 3 weekends there. Got a p3 in quali. P11 in quali after literally being called in not even 24 hours prior. And went p20-8 in the südschleifs

[fallow breach]

bearman in general tbh

the saudi showing for ferrari

[quaint hare]

yeah

[fallow breach]

ik people talk about it a lot

but yeah

[quaint hare]

he pulled off some good overtakes

[fallow breach]

p11 in quali on DEBUT, less than half a tenth from knocking out a 7 time champion

and scoring six points

[floral apex]

Did you just call the GP layout the Sudschleife

[quaint hare]

it is the Südschleife. Or is that a different layout? Cuz idrk

[red wadi]

Südleife was a old layout tbf, it was around 7km long

[red wadi]

GP layout isn’t the Südleife

[fallow breach]

wasnt that the nordschleife or am i thinking of a different circuit

[floral apex]

The actual Nurburgring Sudschleife hasn't existed since 1982

[red wadi]

Same track

[red wadi]

Yup

[quaint hare]

oh yeah sorry my mistake

looked it up

[fallow breach]

lance stroll a sprint winner in miami

he had sprint pole.

[quaint hare]

no damage

[fallow breach]

FULL POLE AS WELL?? DAMN LANCE I WASNT FAMILIAR WITH YOUR GAME BRO

[floral apex]

full pole? Is it possible to have half pole?

[fallow breach]

sprint weekend so sprint and full/grand prix pole need to be distinguised

or i guess they dont since lance got both

damn it lando

we could have had 5 winners in 5 races

[red wadi]

Formula E: LOLA YAMAHA signs Arthur Cambleforth, 1 day before F1 Monaco GP
The latest news coming from Monaco, the driver who will race for Porsche in the Berlin E-Prix will NOT stay at the Germans team after the E-Prix. LOLA Yamaha has signed Arthur Cambleforth for 2 years, with an option to go full time in the 3rd year. LOLA hope to put Arthur in action during the 2027/28 season opener in Brazil in December

[red wadi]

Crazy thing is, this won’t be the second time Arthur competes in a series while being contracted to another in the same series

[fallow breach]

could have had 5 in 5 but i can settle for 5 in 6

[floral apex]

[floral apex]

mclaren are top

[red wadi]

LOLA would hate bro or smth😭

[fallow breach]

Verstappen leads the WDC by 10 points but red bull are only 4th bc jehan has 17 points to max's 106.. bro's getting dropped after spain definitely

well well well look who finally decided to win a race

of course its canada the track he practically owns

with his record there

[fallow breach]

lando wins for a third time

alonso had pole in his home gp tho which is cool

Daruvala out, Hauger in at Red Bull

only change

[quaint hare]

This is insane

Jeddah

out of the top 9 who started the race only 1 of them finished thw race. Me

after the lap 1 crash i showed earlier i was in p3. Perez crashed out behind me. The same lap piastri crashed into russell. Then it was sainz and norris fighting for the lead. And in turn 1 in the final lap they crashed. Leaving me in p1 and winning the race ahead of gasly and albon

(alpine is p1 in the constructors right now)

[raven fern]

Would yall race on this track? The drawing is still unfinished but i have 2 weeks of winter holidays now so i will try to learn basics of blender and i will be making it into an assetto corsa track

[quaint hare]

is it clockwise or counterclockwise?

[raven fern]

Counter

[quaint hare]

i can imagine that sector 2 would be awkward to drive counterclockwise

Is that the lesmo corners?

start of sector 2

[raven fern]

Yeah

I mean

Sorta

But i have some more sketches in my notebook, tommorow i will try to make all of them into pictures like this one and i will chose the best one to try and make into an assetto corsa track

[quaint hare]

this is my opinion: Its a decent track. However i think that clockwise it would be better. Especially sector 2. its not bad

[raven fern]

Maybe

[floral apex]

It looks pretty long
And i'm not a fan of how close those complexes in sector 2 are

This might be more enjoyable and would cut down the length and corner count

it looks like if yoy went wide there you'd push the wall onto the other side of the track

[vast wedge]

good start to a career?

[quaint hare]

Gasly got pole in Miami. By 3,5 SECONDS

[floral apex]

i mean tbf he was the only one on softs (interesting also because i rarely see AIs do strategy choices like that in qualis)

[floral apex]

shame F1M only saves the last 5 years of results
but considering how it can theoretically go on forever i can see why - to save on storage space

[quaint hare]

im only doing 5 lappers so far for the first season. But damn with extreme damage its insane. We got sainz with a 40 Focus

[balmy rover]

if you really want to keep track you can write everything down

[quaint hare]

or just screenshot season results

[robust yarrow]

I also design tracks but your turns are pretty bit sharp and hard to make

[tawny helm]

was it worth it.

(im on controller)

[quaint hare]

nothing that special tbh

[tawny helm]

It is for me when im on a broken day one xbox one controller

with a bit of stick drift

[quaint hare]

if youre faster than the ai there then youre pretty much set to get the livery

[tawny helm]

Yeah compared to all the other challenges for the liveries this was the hardest

Atleast until I found a proper setup

When I got the Mclaren chrome livery, that was easy

I just don't like racing on street circuits anyway

[quaint hare]

it also depends on the track and what people you play against. for example i often got unlucky with dirty drivers crashing me out into last place

[tawny helm]

I mean im just talking about this one time trial

Against liam lawsons lap time

[quaint hare]

ah the time trial

[tawny helm]

Yes the Liam Lawson Singapore

[quaint hare]

yeah thats a bit more difficult

[tawny helm]

Thats the one i did here

Took me a while but I found some corners you could partially cut and a way to perfectly skirt the chicanes

[fallow breach]

boring changes s3-4

alonso retires

Pourchaire to Ferrari

Hopefully reg changes mix things up but knowing the codemasters f1 game it probably won't

which track is the best in your opinion (i put arrows alongside start/finish line to indicate if it's clockwise or counterclockwise)

(i will try to make the track you thinks is the best into an assetto corsa mod) (if i don't succeed i will make minecraft ice boat track)

[fallow breach]

i've gotten an idea for developing the 'DPM' save

[quaint hare]

probably the 3rd one

this

[raven fern]

do you think it would've been better if i combined this and the last one?

like take sector 3 out of the last one

[quaint hare]

yeah

that would be good

fast sections but not a full speed track

[raven fern]

DPM report that a vote of no confidence has resulted in principal and driver DP (DP73) being sacked on the spot

He will have no further involvement with the team. Further details to follow.

Staffing arrangements have never been known from within their garage.

DPM to rename to Indlovu-Pacifico from Belgian GP after disassociating with DP and signing sponsor deals

The Indlovu team will announce their driver to replace the outgoing DP(73) in due course.

Introducing Veikko Virtanen

The 21 year old Finn will replace the outgoing driver starting in Belgium. He will have to carry a team that has been catastrophically marred by controversies spearheaded by DP73 out of the ashes, and he knows he cannot target the points just yet, however the man hailing from the city of Mikkeli does have a long-term target to impress on the global stage of Formula One, according to his translator.

[floral apex]

hauger just spun at the right time to watch half the grid pass by

[floral apex]

bro got rekd

[fallow breach]

the guy was literally the definition of chaos and anarchy for seven straight years

[floral apex]

i think combining parts of the first and third one would make it good

[fallow breach]

im surprised it didn't happen sooner

[floral apex]

they really waited 7 years to do something

[fallow breach]

The question now becomes what can Virtanen do?

His first ever quali is under full wet conditions

they really chucked veikko in the deep end huh

(yes i did just look up finnish names and pick one that sounded good)

[half forum]

that’s so sad

just to spin and watch everybody go by

[fallow breach]

damn

[half forum]

it’s like being the only person getting the kahoot question wrong

[fallow breach]

fr

[floral apex]

he also just botched aston's only chance at points this race

[fallow breach]

veikko's first lap is enough for p21, 3 seconds adrift of p1

...6 seconds ahead of Bearman

P20 FOR VIRTANEN

PROGRESS

[quaint hare]

then whats the f1 equivalent to being the only one to get a question rigjt? Pitting under SC and then cruising by everyone as they pit after the sc?

[floral apex]

the f1 world just celebrated like it was new years or smth idk

[half forum]

guess so

[fallow breach]

damn indiovu is still so slow

[floral apex]

how about performing a huge undercut on the entire grid during a weather change

[half forum]

how the fuck do you manage to be THAT slow

[half forum]

also counts ig

[quaint hare]

or getting pole in quali because you timed the lap perforctlx

[fallow breach]

its called 7 seasons of deliberate backmarking and 0 development

plus its full wets

but damn we gonna talk about red bull 16-19?! max got beaten by arthur leclerc in a sauber!!

[half forum]

full wet don’t change anything when you have 0 dev and backmark on purpose

imo

[floral apex]

MAX POINTS FOR ALPINE!

alpine ftw

also mercedes last

HAAS AS WELL 🔥🔥

in terms of durability we're still ass

so its fine

[floral apex]

[fallow breach]

alpmid

[floral apex]

and aero i can't even check cuz we've maxed out on all currently possible upgrades

the performance chart tho

[fallow breach]

virtanen dragging the car to p20 in quali on debut still kinda goated considering how long they spent in the dulldrums under DP

[floral apex]

based on this chart i think us and Aston are literally tied

[fallow breach]

wait was arthur in merc at one point in the dpm save or was that the xenon save

[quaint hare]

8 races

73 dnfs

[fallow breach]

bc if it was dpm then Leclerc being there now means both Leclercs have been in merc

[floral apex]

and heres the standings

what happened to alonso

did he retire midway

also this is driver career so i can't actually check the driver market

[fallow breach]

any quick predictions on how virtanen will do on debut (consider the fact that the ex-dpm is still a shitbox)

[quaint hare]

insane season tho.

73 Dnfs in 8 races. 9,125 dnfs per race

[fallow breach]

damn

thats almost enough to distribute a set of points like a separate championship to the dnfs every race

how many times has virtanen said bwoah since joining the former DPM team

verstappen has finished every race he finished with the fastwst lap

[fallow breach]

hmmm

[floral apex]

"If I can't have fastest lap then I'm not finishing this race"

[fallow breach]

so raikkonen says "bwoah"

what would virtanen say

[quaint hare]

in all 5 of those he dnfed befoee he could finish a lap

[half forum]

tf happened in miami

[fallow breach]

lap 1 virtanen is up to p14

is my guess

but hes already fallen to p20 by the end of the kemmel straight 💀

[floral apex]

look at how consistent i am

[fallow breach]

yoooo

[floral apex]

bruh Hauger is on a downward trend

13-14-15 in his first 3 races

[half forum]

god damn

[fallow breach]

look how far virtanen + the new management has brought the team in just half a season

oh also, i have a LOT of driver transfers to talk about

All of this is started by Stroll retiring.

That sent Ralph Boschung to Aston Martin.

The first vacancy that provides at VCARB then gets taken up by new champion Lando Norris, leaving McLaren.

[floral apex]

I mean 8 million and 73,000 r&d points
You can get a LOT done

[fallow breach]

yk what im already losing track of the chronology

lemme just say who's where now

so as i said, stroll retired, Boschung to aston, norris to VCARB

McLaren actually cleared house, sending Piastri to Ferrari as well.

[red wadi]

Okay so when i’m home imma sim Monaco, bc lowkey I don’t wanna be stuck in Monaco (lore-wise) for 3 more days

[fallow breach]

Sainz and Vesti both move from Ferrari to McLaren

Fittipaldi takes the other VCARB seat

Which sends Cordeel to Alpine

[red wadi]

So i’ll drop the results on Friday/Saturday but I’ll advance lore wise

[fallow breach]

And Pierre Gasly fills the second Ferrari seat alongside Piastri.

[floral apex]

Alpine WDC and WCC would be wild but its 100% possible in my save

Pierre is just competent when he chooses to be

[fallow breach]

So essentially:
Stroll retires
Norris ->
Piastri ->
Sainz ->
Vesti ->
Fittipaldi [free agent] ->
Gasly ->
Cordeel ->
Boschung ->

[floral apex]

Finally Stroll retires

[floral apex]
