you will have significantly less aero sensitive cars
which makes them better in severe conditions
severe spindle
Yah hoepfully next year's cars won't have all these problems
Given as they'll be harder to drive by default, but also more predictable as there's no downforce shenanigans going on
Basically, cars are going to perform closer to their 2014 to 2018 period I believe
severe spindle
It'll be great if it does indeed work out
I already really like how the 2026 regs look visually
I always liked the 2022-2025 era of designs, but I understand the problems folks have with them

Smaller and more nimble, while also sleek

ironically Alfa Romeo did what Stake does right now
Though even more funnily, they sponsored Alfa in their last year
severe spindle
alfa romeo was a sponsorship and technical partnership
But right now, every team , bar Mclaren, has a title sponsor
it doesn't make much snese either, since they have so many Chrome and Google stuff on their car and yet that's not a title sponsor
severe spindle
You know why I think the cost cap should be reduced even further?
The tobacco money that was injected into these F1 teams made every sponsor afterwards look pitiful
When that was outruled, it led to complete disaster
Nearly every team, especially ones not backed by a manufacture, struggled
It's much the same right now
So I do think cost cap should be brought down even fruther

Which one or ones are your favorite current helmets
One thing I don't quite understand is why their helmets keep changing
Back in 2000s, having your unique helmet was kind of a given
Coulthard actually spoke on how he'd always rock his Scottish flag helmet without change

@severe spindle this will amuse you! Aston Martin has just sold Aston Martin
severe spindle
Wait..
What
So... does this mean Aston Martin Racing isn't owned by Lewerance stroll anymore?
Does this mean Aston isn't gonna be Aston martin anymore?
What does this mean for the future
This was unexpected espiecally with all the investment
glacial pine
Even more chaotic
Stroll owns large amounts of Aston Martin and also Aston Martin, separately.
The car company is selling the 5% of the F1 team that it owned, but leaving their names on the team
It could leave that team more easy to rebrand if another company wanted their name on the constructor's championship in the future, if Aston Martin the car company changes from part owner to basically a sponsor and partner. There's also a chance car Aston Martin uses the $150mil they got from selling their stake in the team to invest in something that helps them make bigger profits, and then buys that bit of the F1 team again
glacial pine
Maybe
severe spindle
I'm not sure what this means for their future
Maybe the team.wont be affected by this

But it was only 5% stake in the F1 team.

You know it's funny how brutal the world of F1 is
Even as a rookie, you're expected to perform almost immediately
And sometimes the teams don't take into account the cars' natural deficits in performance
Someone like Yuki Tsunoda was a rising star in Alphatuari/Visa Cashapp RB
But soon as he comes into Red Bull, he struggles badly
It also doesn't help that most of these problems stem from the teams' actual enviroment and expectations
Red Bull, and somewhat by extension RB, are actively affected by the strict and high performance expectations
which is kind of ridiculous given they've only had 2 WDC drivers
So essentially, they expect every driver they recruit to be the next Vertsappen or Vettel
Even other high performing teams, like Mercedes-AMG, Ferrari or Mclaren have no such enviroment
All of their drivers have stated confidently that they feel safe with their seats
Not that it is always this way, mangements change of course
But frankly, it makes me wonder how teams like Red Bull could ever claim any victory unless luck would have drivers like Vettel or Max drop in their laps
It's the same story with Alpine
They expect every driver they find to be the next Alonso or Ocon or something
And they have an even worse excuse given their cars are often not even competitive

Alonso and Stroll were very fast this qualifying

Prime Fernando Alonso between 2010 and 2014 and only challenged for the championship twice. 2010 they failed on strategy and 2012 alonso outdrove the car like hell. arguably the 4th or 5th fastest car on that grid
Vettel between 2015 and 2020 again only challenged twice for the championship. 2017 was a building year but the car was quick, Mercedes were just better. 2018 they arguably had the fastest if not close to fastest car for most of the year. combination of ferrari management and strategy plus vettel making mistakes in the second half of that season cost them that one. From then on Vettels confidence was in the mud

Same to be honest. He showed that he indeed had talent, and while yes his cars never were on the same grade to get him the wins again, it did show that beneath everything, there was more to the man than his wins
that's the fate Max has luckily managed to avoid
Thanks to social media and him being more open

I had thought Hoonigan had lost their deal with Ford however
Hoonigan never had a deal with Ford. Only Ken Block had
severe spindle
So they made a deal with them proper now?
granite tangle
And yes, Block later in his career switched to Audi for the last Gymkhana
But it’s no surprise if they want to sign Lia, she’s a properly solid rally driver apart from popular
severe spindle
Yeah and I am guessing that deal didn't last
And being related helps immensely with the image they need
granite tangle
The deal Hoonigan/Block lost was more like Monster Energy
Monster pulled out, that’s the main reason the later Hoonicorn changed livery
And you can see that from the fact Lia is signed with Rockstar Energy instead
granite tangle
The deal Hoonigan/Block lost was more like Monster Energy
The reason I say that is because brand deals have set contracts, I mean if we are being honest Ken was driving Subarus before his massive blow up to fame

I really like this fiesta and this livery

I remember Ken mentioning that both his wife and Lia drove and loved those 3cyl rally 3 fiestas
severe spindle
And it’s nice that it’s the same car she won the championship on
Means alot to her then
ngl, I genuinely have a tough time giving a flying fuck about Lia
Like.. nothing clicks of her with me
Nothing of her interests me, and nothing of current Hoonigan interests me
I don't even know why this is
It's just boring for no clear reason
granite tangle
I don’t follow hoonigan at all
I used to heavily watch their shit tho
Not because of Ken but like other characters
severe spindle
THeir lack of relevance nowadsys is telling of how much Ken's death affected this whole ordeal
Regardless, I am not sure
I really dislike that Fiesta R3
It's like trying to capture that same effect of the old Monster Energy Ken Block cars
yet without any of the cool factor
Nothing of it screams "hoonigan"
severe spindle
Pffft
Or actually make half decent looking liveries
like the famous Volkswagen Beetle car
Rockstar livery designs can look really good
And that Fiesta isn't a good looking design to me
It feels like it's trying to be a mix of the old Monster energy designs but this time with Rockstar branding

We should hear them out. Good points were made
severe spindle
What do you think is the problem with Alpine?
because seemingly, they're struuggling very badly for a couple of years
But beyond just a toxic work enviroment, which itself is a product of their failures, what's the actual matter?
They say Renault engines are the problem, and maybe so, but i really don't think it'd cause this much trouble
Their drivers aren't even that bad, but they still struggle badly
From their 2022 brilliance, they've dropped far back into practically being unable to do anything
What do you think is the actual problem
The development trouble or adapting they're facing that leads to this fate they're currently suffering from

pale tinsel
What do you think is the problem with Alpine?
to answer this. they're french
And the engines are the main reason they're so bad, the other i would say is the high turnover in leadership in recent years
pale tinsel
They started working on this gen of engines really late, so come 2014 they were behind Ferrari and Mercedes by a lot
Underpowered and Unreliable. the worst combination of engine you could get
granite tangle
Ricciardo flashbacks…
severe spindle
So that makes alot of sense actually as to why they're slwoer

And ever since they couldn't catch up

then there was an engine development freeze in 21

That just worsens it

How the fuck did ricciardo go to Renault even after all the DNFs the fucking engine caused him in Redbull
severe spindle
It's a bit of a mystery

For a period they had the best engines
arguably 2nd best. if i remember right about that era, it was widely agreed the mercedes engines were the best in early 2010's, probably even begore then

Piastri has the potential, but Ricciardo was a different breed in his prime man you don't get it

But when I say "WDC potential" i mean he never had the right team for it

Nah people legitimately forget how GOOD Danny was
McLaren killed his confidence completely

And if Mclaren wasn't bad enough, his state in VCARB was truly depressing

When Ricciardo was happy with the car Danny was untouchable

Also Danny did beat Max on merit, even if max was still young that is not so easy
severe spindle
Certainly not
pale tinsel
And if Mclaren wasn't bad enough, his state in VCARB was truly depressing
Yeah, post mclaren confidence destroyed in a car more often than not towards the back of the grid
severe spindle
But to be honest, this is a fate that's happened to so many drivers that at this point it's hard to feel bad
Ricciardo, Webber, Kyvat, Lawson, Yuki, Gasly, Albon
All victims of Red Bull
granite tangle
Sainz is going through the exact same thing
severe spindle
It's hardly anything new anymore

The streets won’t forget that Sainz and max were neck and neck as Torro Rosso teammates
Now Sainz is struggling to make Q2

It's all about the car
And Sainz cannot for the life of him get along with the Williams car
Williams is the team where drivers go to lose their future

The grid of formula e drivers at any given moment too
severe spindle
Nyck, Franco and now Sainz
pale tinsel
Nah. Webber no, he was fast yes but not levels above. Kvyat had the speed, but was crash happy. Lawson possibly, he just needs confidence and he's getting that back at VCARB (but he's so unlikeable to me). Yuki has to be the guy now, but he's been shafted by a red bull thats fallen off a bit. Gasly had to ditch red bull to finally show how good he is. Same with Albon
granite tangle
Or to make it, In Russel’s case
Though Russel was the golden child of Claire Williams
So that’s certainly quite different to everyone else
severe spindle
Yeah Russel had no relevance
he was ALWAYS going to race for Mercedes
He had nothing to worry about
granite tangle
Russel put a stamp on it in Sakhir 2020 when he filled in for Lewis and showed everyone that a backmarker driver in a Mercedes can win a race by miles
Well that is until the “accident”
severe spindle
It really shows the difference between Red Bull and Mercedes
Red Bull goes through drivers faster than a baby goes through diapers
While Mercedes has never been over abundanced with drivers
and all their drivers are above average

Tldr sakhir 2020 george would have won the race easily. but in the last 2 pit stops he first got bottas's tyres on his car. big no no. then the next he allegedly got a puncture

I wanna say this about Ricciardo
I fully recognize his skill and his potential
However, I also wanna say that people way overinflated his ego
A good F1 driver is someone who's happy to be there and performs their best
Daniel had such a weak ego that people boosted him to be this next world champion driver
That when that didn't happen, he just comoletelyt lost the will to race
Don't be like Ricciardo, be like Hulkenberg, who's just happy to be there
never overinflate your expeectations

By the way, there was this video I saw, of a woman explaining the reason for the ever-increasing fashion statement seen in Formula 1
And what it has to do with all of these petroleum companies which sponsor these teams
And I must say.. as it was the same with the Tobacoo sponsors, it's a weird feeling supporting these oil companies' sponsors
Like I would be an absolute fool to say brands like Petronas or Aramco or Shell don't make some of the best looking sponsors
But it is the sme story with how almost all of the Tabaco sponsors worked
They promote something hurtful, and they still are an integral part of why we like rhe sport
It's a double edged sword
truth is, there's no such thing as a "good" big sponsor

Is there an oil company making a good looking F1 livery?
severe spindle
Every big sponsor is destructive in some way
there's not such money to be found in good causes

Well their sponsorship makes the liveries often adapt
And truth be told, without these major sponsors, none of these teams would be sustainable

My favourite sponsor demanded livery, these days, is BWT luminous pink

Interesting how a water flitering company's colors are primarily pink

In my opinion, it needs a complimentory color
Like the Alpine cars always have
Like with the 2024 black, pink and blue car
or like the 2025 blue and pink car

The blue is a compliment bwt uses on their website. I reckon they go with pink because it's memorable, and I'd guess most water treatment companies use either blue or something as boringly neutral as possible

2026 could indeed be their year, but it could also very well not be
By the way, I saw somebody complain about someone tiering Lando and Oscar under Charles and Max in the 2025 driver ratings
But honestly, it made sense to me
Lando and Oscar are driving a car which is by far and wide the best in the field
If they don't win every race, it is a bit of a bizarre sight
And msot of either Lando or Oscar's wins have been due to circumstance
Hell, should Mercedes, Ferrari or Red Bull be able to close the performance gap, it would be likely for them to catch up in either driver championship or constructor championship
glacial pine
Oh they're not DS racing anymore?
Virgin was a season 1 team, quietly partnered with Peugeot for season 2, but the kit was badged as DS for branding.
Then in season 5, stellantis ended their sponsorship/power supply, so Virgin bought in Audi power. Separate, Envision, a Chinese wind turbine manufacturer I have just learned, came in as a title sponsor. Then at the end of 2021 Virgin left and now Envision has the whole outfit.
DS moved their badge to now be partnered with the Penske Team
And the points system is basically the same but there's a point for being fastest in group qualifying, and three for pole position
