Renault might have an edge, I think. Let's not forget that McLaren had the best engine 2014 and were still shit.
Landon Bell
>fourth-degree perinium tear
Blake Wood
Don't need much production just a couple cameras and can sell a couple commercials, also an official stream would get alot more than some shitty periscope
Lucas Campbell
>go to turn 1 >place camera >??? >profit
David Ross
If I remember correctly their excuse at the time was the different fuel and lubricant supplier. I still think they can edge out Renault this year, chassis looks unironically better.
Alexander Young
this. at the right angle, a camera at turn one can capture main straigt, t1, t2, t3, t6, t7, t8. throw in a second camera downhill at turn 12 and you're good to go
Ian Parker
gimi
Isaac Rivera
Already have that with periscope
Robert Thompson
Britalian are you going to to Tokyo 2020?
Luke Allen
potato resolution and spanish gibberish tho
Wyatt Martinez
Nah there was a German guy who wasn't talking, was down at turn one and just watched the cars go. Was perfect.
Cooper Watson
Glad I didn't go to the tests, weather doesn't look comfy at all.
Jordan Rogers
He was a toothpaste.
Credit where credit's due.
Joseph Rivera
All sounds the same at the end of the day
Henry Flores
reminder that testing should be in Australia.
Blake Fisher
>:(
Lincoln Hernandez
Reminder Australia has zero tracks to test on
>literally a street circuit country like Azerbaijan
lmao
Xavier Torres
>81940899 >8(
Sebastian White
so what will be McLaren's excuse this year?
Josiah Hall
Sure, but the image sucks.
Juan Ramirez
shut up giuseppe
Connor Nguyen
Image was fine
Wyatt Harris
Just got home from work lads, give me a quick rundown of today
Colton Hill
Max is QT.
Also McLel is very Lel
Carter Lewis
Mclaren weight saving by running with 3 wheels, worked ok for the most part Nothing else happened Honda doesn't blow up anymore
Julian Jackson
Good one
Grayson Diaz
Italian sounds like Spanish which sounds like Portugese
Dutch sounds like German which sounds like Scandi languages.
t.speaks English and French
Connor Allen
New engine doesn't fit properly on best chassis.
Landon White
Alonso has already had his little book of excuses out
Jackson King
>close down Albert Park 3 times in a month >doesn't get any profit by the first two times it happens >track is a mess with no real testing ground considering the kind of corners
Barcellona despite being boring is a pretty good testing ground. Same with Bahrein
>Spanish sounds like Portugese you couldn't be more wrong if you tried
Zachary Hall
Indy is uncucked at the moment. Enjoy it while you can
Logan Scott
Alonso managed a worse time than hulk (on medium)with supersofts though
Jacob Miller
You couldn't. Portuguese is just Spanish spoken by a deaf person
Landon Barnes
They're using their shit new font everywhere but on the number of laps. Old font is GOAT font.
Colton Fisher
>Sauber +1 sec on the rest
Jaxson Bennett
New font is fine if they just change the lowercase a
Andrew Rogers
>warm weather = actual, useful data to be gained and a much more pleasant experience for teams and drivers. None of this 5C rubbish in barcelona >reduced shipping costs - no need to move everything from england to barcelona, back to england, then onto melbourne. >big opportunity to build hype before season opener Good plan
>implying testing circuits need anything but a track, pit lane, garages and a doctor on site in case someone fucks up badly enough FIA's track grading is a load of shite desu. There's literally no reason why F1 testing couldn't be held at Phillip Island or eastern creek. Anyway, Phillip Island would get grade 1 if they bothered to apply for it.
Justin Baker
Yeah this new one is gonna age poorly
Wyatt Adams
GOOD JOB GIMI
Gavin Perry
>doctor on site
And a hospital close by, no outback doctors shit
Easton Wood
The state of Williams
Jose Sanchez
Everyone in the top 5 was on medium except kimi (soft) and alonso( supersoft)
Ryan Hernandez
>mclaren still shit Good, very good
Christian Wilson
What did I miss? Where is the bingo pic? >Mazepin Wait what, this is their ""new"" test pilot? Are there any summary of this day? Please don't bully, I will kiss you in cheek for any information about results of the first day.
John Watson
>alonslow needs supersofts to keep up with rbrs medium gonna be a long season for mclel
Asher Wright
it looks stuttering because of shitty camerawork. The filming crew knows nothing about the correlation of shutter speeds and fps
Brayden Lewis
They also have Latifi but he's sick
Andrew Kelly
what was wrong with shitrotken
James Reed
Completely this, also the 0
>>Mazepin >Wait what, this is their ""new"" test pilot?
I think he payed the test spot. In-season FI should go Latifi-Russel >inb4 Celis BTFO (Buyed the fuck out)
To be fair the track was colder when he ran But sainz go very close in the same track condition in soft i think
Gabriel Clark
McLel can't even tighten a wheel nut >Honda Airgun's most likely culprit
Ryan Martinez
I heard he didn't set a laptime until his 15th lap and I'm not sure how thats possible unless he kept going into the pits for something or was just cutting all the corners
Mason Smith
Inb4 they blame it on Honda
>we've been tightening the wheels the same for the last 3 years but they just weren't going fast enough to cause a failure because muh honda
Christopher Lewis
press F to pay respects
Jose Collins
Reminder that Alonso's laptime was set by cutting the chicane and using the pre-2007 corner
Angel Sullivan
F Good night, sweet prince
Xavier Kelly
It wasn't just the wheel nut that came off, it was the stub axle as well so it was probably a mechanical failure
Evan Thomas
Really ? I don't think they count this time it was proably just to get the torro roslow out of the way
