What are you even talking about? Nobody insinuated any of the points in your comment. OP mentioned anecdotally that Texans they know present in a certain way. That certain way is basically co-opted by Republicans. Texas has a governor, two senators, and a 2-to-1 ratio of House reps that were VOTED IN BY TEXANS that are Republicans. The policy of energy independence pushed by these representatives elected by majorities has led to awful, yet predictable, outcomes. This is the very definition of the state reaping what it has sown.

I guess it’s good that both parties deny the allegations. The problem for Tyson now is that questions about this and the past Shadman support are going to follow wherever she goes.

I fell into that initially as well, but I checked the FEC filing to get the address, then used the address to check property records, then went back and looked at the interviews with his folks to see their names for reference. The residence is that of his parents, so it seems to be him that donated.

Coolcoolcool a second chance to run into Oscar 🙄

edit - some salty ferrari simp has now disliked all comments referencing this lmao

Good. Fuck that guy and his moronic simps. It’s embarrassing enough having that be one of the GT America liveries, let’s keep it out of F1.

My orange pirate boi says hi!

Rhodesians be like

Had one of their fridges a while back with their proprietary compressor design. It kicked the bucket at about 2-3 years old. All appliance repair shops that I contacted in my area, including an LG-certified one, declined repairs. Most of them even immediately asked if it was an LG when I asked if they did compressor replacements to head me off at the pass. It was a good product while it worked, but that’s only half the equation.

but muh heritage or whatever 🙄

Virginia has toesies AND booba, can we get our own category

Introduced in Suzuka on Hamilton’s car. It’s on the left of the intake I think? The camera has a larger FOV than we see, and software uses the horizon as a reference to create a frame that rotates as opposed to having the camera gimbal.

What a time to be a papaya simp! Terrific turnaround from the beginning of the season to now.

Gratz to Max and RB I guess. Checo though…yikes

Papaya party bay beeeee

Also I’m ready to be hurt again

Eh…Not too hot on this. I grew up watching Mark Martin drive the Valvoline NASCAR stock car and am happy to see them partner with an F1 team, but by the same token I think that AM’s normal livery is terrific. The various Valvoline decals are inoffensive enough but the ‘mohawk’ is kinda meh.

I imagine that it will be in the sporting regs that the two must be used at the same time and may not be used separately, although having the whole assembly as one piece may be tricky (I would love to see that done though). We’ll know next week what the FIA and Mercedes have in mind though.

Hopefully the weather is conducive for a full functionality test and not just an installation and aero shakedown. Right now it’s looking like next week will be a damp one there but we’ll see. Maybe they can get Ecclestone out there with a hose.

The article claims that the teams have worked on this implementation, so I expect that the cars won’t be hampered too much aerodynamically from the new parts. It also says that F1 worked on it as well, so I expect that it will be used for its intended purpose and not just as another aero component. Realistically, if this ultimately gets developed as a non-spec part then expect teams to have it do the minimum permitted amount of deflection and focus more on how they can benefit from manipulating aero around the tire.

What gives me pause, however, is that in articles about this proposed change from both last year and this year there is a reiterated notion that conditions arising that would necessitate the installation of the new components would be paired with a red flag. Hopefully they’ll change their tune on that and have it be something to be done on the fly.

Man, I am so excited to see Lando and the updated McLaren have a great weekend. It looks to have us potentially in the mix with Merc and AM. Psyched to see Oscar get the new car next weekend too.

Man, this whole weekend has been thrilling so far

Absolutely awful. I love historic circuits and am in favor of keeping them on the various motorsport calendars, but there needs to be a roundtable on what can be done to improve safety on this section of track.

It’s got me super excited. Can’t help feel that Lando has been in a bit of a rut with the car not being great, and this has given me a dose of hopium. Both he and Oscar will have the upgrades come next weekend, which could solidify us back towards the midfield.
