So many retirements now are just "car have computer error :/"
So stupid.
It has spread to other motorsports too - now the BTCC has been neutered by heavier cars with an electro boost button that only serves to completely neutralise any chance of an overtake done on momentum.
It's obvious that it's ruining races too, because the racing is actually still really good until the exact lap they enable the hybrid gayness, whereupon it turns into a relative procession and the commentators have to tell us about the bloody thing again.
The "car have computer error" is bullshit. Before, the car would just die in the middle of the race, nowadays most of this is diagnosed before happening thus retiring the car before it does break down.
Shame the BTCC is still obsessed with punishing winners. I do think the KERS is better than the success ballast that fricked the FWD cars, but allowing drivers to have more power because of skill issue is still gay. And yes Dave, I
we know what the new fricking system is already, we're halfway through the season, stop explaining it every single race.
i’d rather watch formula e instead of the fia’s infinite money generator; not even gonna mention all the moronic gold digging pick me girls that pretend to be into it
I'd rather watch my own anus being blown up by a 2 inch tall prospector looking to strike Brown than watch another second of Formula e.
At least the name means I can call fans of it "Formula Etards'.
If it would take a hard limit on downforce, and tyres as hard as diamonds, then that's what I think they should do in order to make sustained four wheel drifts the fastest way around the circuit. Think 1967 without the death/injury. On that note, give the engines NA 3L of any configuration and no emissions regs too.
it do be like dat.. Most of the time it's a little boring. There's rarely a battle for an actual title. Same guy every race and season except for once every 5 years or so. In general, reading is a more enjoyable activity than watching F1.
Because hillclimbs originated as a test of an engine’s performance. Historically, the competition was just to make it to the top of the hill because many cars at the dawn of the automobile didn’t have the performance to actually make it up. Once most cars could, they just started comparing times to see who got there quickest.
Going downhill equalises engine power discrepancies too much, which defeats the purpose.
>Going downhill equalises engine power discrepancies too much, which defeats the purpose.
Yeah then driver skill might end up being the determining factor, what a fricking travesty ey?
It would be gravity competition instead of driving prowess
It wasn't always this way.... >ywn tandem drift the downhill of your local inner town touge with your silly little cap wearing bros while driving the fastest cars in the world infront of a packed gallery of exquisitely dressed ladies and gentlemen
(Eventually I'll get a Tipo 184 and live the dream, hopefully without breaking my legs or head. It's an MX5 NB based 50s F1 replica kit car thingy that can be made road legal)
Pic related the Tipo 184. It's supposed to look like an Alfa 158.
Beware when looking at pictures that a lot of them are actually of the prototype that's not based on an MX-5 at all. You can tell because the final one has a much higher rear end to fit a headrest and roll bar.

its fastest growing now because weve had a couple exciting seasons on top of the influx of netflix normies. 2020 was predictable but chaotic, 2021 was the greatest championship fight in at least 15 years. now that verstappen is clearly going to run away with the championship due to ferrari ineptitude im not so inclined to tune in every week.
also im sick of hearing about > muh cost caps > muh porpoising
in every single post race discussion

Once the top 3 pass the checkered flag, i turn it off
Back in the day with Peter Windsor and and guys like Kimy Alonso and Schumacher, yeah I would watch it but now I just don't give a the frick not even about the podium ceremony
>mercedes frick up the regulations change >we finally get the chance for ferrari to win the title again >they do well for three races then frick up at every turn and verstappen wins everything
I still have no idea how the made turbochargers gay
bro the whole engine is fricking gay
they suck, squeeze, bang, and blow
doesn't get more homosexual than that
wtf I love Tessies now!

MGU-H
Too many electronics everywhere, its like a damn video game now.

Less buttons? More?
You'd be surprised how bad the MGU-H muffles the turbo and exhaust. Thank god they're dropping it in 2026.
Its a clever bit of tech though.
So is a laser propulsion system, so why not use that?
It's not, it's less advanced than a twenty year old Prius just far more expensive.
Idk it's pretty good this year
>cars makes less noise than porsche cup car
Hate the powertrain in f1, wish they still ran the v10
At least it's better than the infernal screeching of Formula E.

f1 would be worth watching if they had Buick
Why hello there Mr Gigachad.
The brown people finally undid the nig rigging what's not to love
Lmfao seethe Ferrari fanboy
If they rolled the rules back 3+ decades, it would be more interesting.
>if it wasn't boring it would be interesting
It would remove all the rules that made it boring. This would allow the possibility of something interesting to happen.
If it would take a hard limit on downforce, and tyres as hard as diamonds, then that's what I think they should do in order to make sustained four wheel drifts the fastest way around the circuit.

I want 2 stroke supercharged aircooled V16 diesels racing against sextuple wankels, turbines, and wobble-web barrel engines
you will never grow up

Moto GP and GT Racing is miles better than F1. Thank the Lord normies haven't infiltrated either sports.
Good thing hillclimb is a thing.
No one has ever been able to explain to me why these limp wristed homosexuals never race back DOWN the hill?
Because it's motorsport not a fricking soapbox derby.
Because hillclimbs originated as a test of an engine’s performance. Historically, the competition was just to make it to the top of the hill because many cars at the dawn of the automobile didn’t have the performance to actually make it up.

Yeah maybe if there weren't any turns you moron
It would be gravity competition instead of driving prowess
shit so boring lol same thing as golf
thru, dont watch israelitermula 1, nascar is better in every single way
It wasn't always this way....

gib Lancia D50 with side tanks pls.

the best title fight was in 2007 with gimi
Always has
No shit that's why you follow motogp

Wec and Indy car are better. I'm not that into any racing or any sports but I mean just look at the cars. They look better than f1.
I like indy cars and grand touring racing
I can only watch races where the cars sound different. So pass on F1. Its JGTC, Nurburgring and old LeMans for me.
it opens a help page for me
I just watch the highlights on youtube. Aint nobody got time to watch the full races
