I don't get that either. You have supersoft soft medium hard and now introduce ultrasoft and hypersoft and given the three softest, which technically sound they're gonna fall apart pretty fast, no, you still can easily do a one stopper which always produces the lamest races you can get. I think we need some hyperultrasupersoft if that trend continues.

Talking a bit seriously. She wasn't alone there, so someone aware of the race was caught napping there. Which is understandable given how boring this race was.


On Instragram she said she was TOLD to wave the flag one lap early. That's bullshit IMO. :slaphead:

FIA now confirms this. She was not to blame, someone of the officials made the mistake.

Still bullshit to have the flag waved by some kind of celebrity, but that's something else.

:flag:

Much more boring than Monaco. Still don't understand what they wanted to achieve with these current rules. New lap records? Wow, so interesting when the racing is non existent. The racing has never been this dull since I started watching 20 years ago. At least back then we had different strategies, now they've taken that away too with all races being 1 stoppers.

Yea pretty much. The ultra durable tires + increased aerodynamics + bullet proof reliability, has completely taken any unpredictability out of the sport, and really leaving any variance in the top 6 down to how each chassis responds to the circuit and if they can get the tires to work on that particular day. This is what we're stuck with this generation of F1.

Never heard of her before. I have no idea about that kind of skin condition, but are you born with it or can you contract it?

It's not known. It is believed to be a genetic condition that needs to be triggered to become visible.

So making a joke based on someone's skin condition is perfectly fine and it's only those PC people that ruin it by complaining about that?

Sure, that's the attitude to have... :roll:

Yeah you're right, I'm the one that's flying off the handle here, you continue with your thoughtful attacks on people's appearances they have no control over.
