the hangovers can be brutal.

Dubs and button wdc, kvyat 2nd

I like F1

me too

I also wish F1 would go full WWE so I can stop crying for Ferrari being shite and start discussing about Meta F1

What does this wily, old, silver haired fox have planned for next year?

He's planning on losing

la dolce vita

Eating a healthy diet of pussy and being good at the beginning of the year and shit at the end.

making kimi the WDC

Future of Ferrari is already decided

Vettel is Alonso 2.0, no Ferrari WDC for him
Will join Mercedes the year they decide to defund and start focusing on Formula E or something
Will flail around at awful manufacturers making $40mil a year and whining incessantly

youtu.be/WYs-r7IpuSY

Merc takes a cheeky shit on Ferrari.

Why is there a picture if a prison on your beer?

Winning this championship with no survivors

Rude

you're in for a surprise if you think that's what our prisons look like.

desu it's a fuckin travesty the brewery was knocked down, and then the site left vacant for 25 fuckin years. Beautiful art deco exterior, would have made a great indoor arena.

pǝʞɔǝɥɔ

this
dont get anywhere near marina village, I dont know what their fucking problem is or why they dont fix that shit

kek
they could also write sg on the asphalt like porsche did, when they gone to the Audi HQ with the 919 in a commercial.

When will FE stop being a caricature of itself?
They still acting like if they would be an lsd dream of Bernie

How new are you?

Wow never seen that pic of vicktoria

just born yesterday la

>Mercedes new high rake car is terrible, RB are nowhere with Renault power again
>Ferrari is only car of the big 3 that is good, McL too slow and Renault still in the midfield
>Vettee incapacitated early on in the year, SF draft Ericsson in as late emergency replacement
>Son of Eric is not a shitter, gets better of Gimi (and unbearable Swedish /hoc/ tier "bants" creep in) who agrees to be his rear gunner for another year in F1
>cruises to the title then returns to Sauber when Vettee recovers
post yfw it happens

Time for Roborace

youtu.be/VHJcIN_20KY

Looks cool

the only way I'd watch roborace is if they mount weapons to the cars and turn it into real life death race.

autosport.com/f1/news/132802/red-bull-willing-to-wait-for-ricciardo-decision

Is the option of Mercedes dropping Bottas for Ricciardo realistic? 2bqdesu that would be bad for Mercedes since Ricciardo isn't as shit as Bottas.

Is thia the first time we've had multiple four time WDCs on the grid?

I mean present, not future 4xWDCs like MSC/Prost in 1991/1993, and MSC and Vettee.

Yes

now thats just cruel

>Ricciardo isn't as shit as Bottas.
Neither of them are shit, or even close to it. They're both unfortunate that their current teammates are both potential top 10 drivers of all time (HAM already is, amx will probably be too assuming he doesn't alonso his career) who outshine them. Both are championship quality drivers, but not GOAT tier.

as for your question, it's highly probable. Bottas' future hinges on what Ricky does. If he goes to Ferrari (which I think he'll do. He wants a 'ship and going up against HAM would be a gamble. He already knows he can dominate VET), VB probably gets another 1 year deal if he's going alright next year. Same scenario if DR stays where he is.

If he wants Mercedes though, they'll be in a shootout for that seat. VB's 2018 effectively starts next weekend. What Bottas does if he loses the Merc drive is anyone's guess. He's too good for Williams, so maybe McLaren if Alonso doesn't want to hang around.

it looks just like FE and FE is a meme

>2bqdesu that would be bad for Mercedes
You know, there is a constructors title to earn points for.

When is Hakkinen ending his sabbatical lads?

Right after MSC is done with pretending to be a potato.

Reminder that the only thing this guy does besides counting his money is getting credit for David Sanchez and the aero department's work.

this desu

Yea I don't see any benefit to it.

Bottas is far better than Kimi, which guarantees Mercedes the WDC.

And he was good enough to disrupt takes points from Vettel and disrupt his race several times this year, which helped get the WDC

*high pitched vvvvv noise*

>Hamilton only won because of reliability!
>Vettel has 2 dnfs
>hamilton clinches with 2 races to go

Reddit never learns

nth for fuck amx. no one wants a Frog Wins LOL era

actually they want an unexposable driver as Sup Forums wankers are their main customer focus

>Sup Forums wankers are their main customer focus
About fucking time someone appreciated us.

*is unexposable*

how does one expose a no 2 driver? It's like trying to kill that which is already dead.

>gets overtaken by a fucking yacht

>tfw the wobblering started that weekend.
Looking forward to seeing him in Ferrari red in 2019.

you are now a ferrari fan

*gets overtaken by Marcus Ericsson*
youtube.com/watch?v=Nmg6I-lUbT0

I've asked this yesterday, but the book is now out everywhere so I'd like to ask again if anybody has a rip of Newey's "How to build a car"?

Or if anyone checked it out and can tell me if it's any good.

>Understood Kimi, understood

Would you like an excerpt?

Toto and Lauda have said they like Bottas and like that their current drivers work together they have said the environment is a lot better for the entire team. I feel people here underestimate how valuable that is to Mercedes. The car was also developed with two drivers that aren't Bottas in mind and Bottas has had to adjust to the team.
I'm mean come on one of the best drivers on the grid has struggled with the car of course Bottas isn't going to do great in it. Give him another year and I'm sure he will prove all his doubters wrong.

>Q: What are you afraid of?
>SP: I have discovered lately that I suffer from trypophobia – it’s a fear of patterns of holes. You'll have to look it up…
>fear of holes
Sergio 'Checo' Perez Mendoza, everybody

Is it going to be the same pasta as in the last thread?

...

I'll let you choose which one :)

it already feels like the saison is over :-(

Reminder that this happened before winning 5 straight WDCs

it is

why won't bmw return to f1? mclaren would love a real engine manufacturer and bmw would love to have someone making goat chassis for them, whats their problem?

BMW don't make, and refuse to make, V6 engines

BMW has reduced their motorsport presence significantly. They're not the same company anymore.

>since Ricciardo isn't as shit as Bottas.
Hamilton, Vettel and Alonso are Schumi tier drivers. You're comparing WDC tier to GOAT tier. See related video
youtube.com/watch?v=7JInezOcF20

If they crash into each other double podium becomes 0. Force India for example. But I doubt that will happen because they're pretty equal.

Pretty much.

>Q: Which film last made you cry?
>MV: Actually I am a comedy person. Laughing is my thing. Stupid funny movies. Movies that are so stupid that they are really funny! (Laughs)
amx confirmed for fan of Amy Schumer

stupid can be kino, e.g., Airplane!, Dumb and Dumber, and Talladega Nights

but more likely Adam Sandler and Kevin James

just email Adrian and say you're a kid from Finland with a learn disability and you can't afford his book, can he email you a copy

What to expect from Vettee the coming races? Is he going to let Gimi win to keep Ricky at bay?

wait so who's making the mk5 supra engine
or is it just assist from BMW that's helping to make that?

He will try win so the gap isn't large between him and Lewis. He will try win to see where the car needs to improve. He will try win to prove to his fans and himself that he can.

That's an I6

well we already know his taste in books is shit, so i doubt his movie choices are any better

he doesn't have a taste in books
that's the only book he's ever read

>so stupid they are funny
That just confirms he's not an Amy Schumer fan

ah shucks my bad, thanks

he read some books by a guy called johan cruff or whatever it was, it says in his interview.

We already know he has a pleb taste in everything else in life mate

like and said

the Red Bull racing manuals count as books

>1. Get Prodromou to do most of the work.
>2. Take all the credit for it.
>3. Don't forget to get all emotional in front of the cameras even though there's not a single reason for me to even show up at the fucking race.

No need to write a fucking book about it.

Waffle to Ferrari when?

I had a pizza for dinner last night. Was pretty shit but it was $4 so can't complain really.

BMW reduced their autosport involvement to gt programmes, as thise are cheap as shit, compared to lmp, f1 or many other formulas.
And as the cartellgate looms above their head, I bet they don't want to spend like hell, in case they got a hefty choking from the goverment.
Remember, they are small players in revenue and sales compared to Mercedes and VAG

Why have there been literally 0 (zero) female F1 drivers worth a shit? The best one has half a point on her "career"
Is it really so physical that men have such a large advantage?

>VAG
Bugatti return to Grand Prix racing when?

Even for males, the odds of making it into F1 are very low. Even very talented males don't make it because they don't have the personal sponsors of lesser talented pay drivers. Considering that motorsport has a very low number of female participants, the number of those with the talent would also be statistically low. They theoretically would have more sponsor backing, but it seems even with females the money somehow finds its way to lesser talented individuals. Also the paddock still seems to largely be a "boys club" mentally.

Neck, upper body strenght, full set of ribs, risk taking mentality and finally social role not fit for a woman. If a woman to ever drive in f1 and win she's gotta be perfect unicorn to fit into proper mentality, be physicaly strong enough to compete yet has lower weight and combining that into one would actually pose huge problem for a female not to mention there have to be racing talent on top of that and finally she has to luck into a rich family that would support her in a racing driver career. Chance for all of this to line up perfectly is next to 0.

all top chess players are men yet chess has no physical aspect at all

There s 2 or 3 women in the top 100 aren't there? I also remember there being a study done on it and it being a pass time for upper class men way back so much so that saying patriarchy or w/e nonsense sjw's spout would be accurate with regards to male dominance in chess.

women are too busy with making friends and having a social life to be elite on the level of men in any discipline

my mommy isn't like that

>full set of ribs
Were you not paying full attention in anatomy?

binland its a joke

that's true
women rarely have the competitive obsession that some men have
but half the population is male so you would expect more
highest rank ever of a female chess player was 8th
