"OMG I don't want this bad thing to happen/this team/driver I hate to win, so obviously it will happen, the race will be dull and we'll all have wasted her time" deluge and the driver shitfighting is part of that.

Thank you for this post. I like seeing old school F1 crashes. I wonder if the Ralf Schumacher crash was captured by tbk, and if so if they can upload a better version now it doesn't have to be downloaded by 56k modems?

I might be banned for this but I'll survive.

They were good about that when Rosberg was there. But Bottas wasn't as fast/consistent as Hamilton so it wasn't really an issue.

Russell has well and truly trounced his teammate this year though. And, is the only driver to have scored points in every race this season (and all in the top 5 to boot). Quite a good performance by him and I'm not really a fan of his (but don't dislike him).

I've tried to use AI Upscaling for old clips, but you can only do so much, if the source quality is 144p.



It would be wonderful if FOM put their complete archive online on F1TV, including free practice sessions. But it seems highly unlikely given they haven't even managed to put all races online just from the last 20 years. So we are stuck with VHS/DVD rips.

this part we do as a way to jinx like you and I usually do every race haha

but the past years put me in a constant wave of tension that hell's gates will open and disasters like Singapore 2017, Canada 2018 and Germany 2018 will happen once again making me questioning why do I still watch

but I want that Mercedes have a Ferrari 2020 season at least this and next year they can fight again

Forgive me if I've misunderstood but you should be able to get better quality than 144p from VHS/DVD rips? Presumably just requires someone to go back through and capture again?

I see 2 groups in the F1 section: Those who clearly like Hamilton, and those who clearly don't. In the pro-Hamilton group I see people trying to deny that they belong to that group, but everything they post oozes of it, although they don't seem to notice it and think they are "neutral". And they can't seem to grasp why anyone else is not in the group.
Put one of the pro-Hamilton and one of the anti-Hamilton against each other and chances are high that they will both come up with the same worthless discussion stoppers like whining and crybaby and so on. There are members, admins even, who can't stand anyone saying anti-Hamilton things but don't hesitate to use the exact same behaviour against other drivers, mostly Verstappen.

I see 2 groups in the F1 section: Those who speak their mind and have a laugh, and those who have to take everything serious and attack every opinion that they don't agree on in a rather agressive way. I have mentionned it here before, it's like they try to make other members feel guilty for having their opinion. There are not a lot of them, but they do it a lot and they make this place a toxic environment. I like to discuss things with people of the first group, I can't be bothered anymore to go in discussion or even try to explain myself to members of the second group.

It could be a coincidence but I see an overlap between the pro-Hamiltonners and the toxic members.

The Pro Ham against the anti Ham isn't too much of a problem. It's funny, it's people having a different opinion, it happens. I don't like seeing members being banned for a day for being too much anti Ham, especially when those capable of doing that are clearly anti Max and act the same way as the anti Hammers without being banned.
The toxic members are a big problem, as they kill all discussion by wanting to discuss EVERYTHING and in a toxic way. I don't call names on purpose.

This post will probably be deleted soon as concerns about this forum are quickly censored.

What about the group on here that knows he is one of the great drivers but think personally he is a bit of a tool?

Jos Verstappen, the father of F1 world champion Max, has criticised Red Bull's Monaco Grand Prix strategy and said the team should have prioritised his son and not Sergio Perez.

"Red Bull achieved a good result, but at the same time exerted little influence to help Max to the front," Jos wrote in a blog post posted to MaxVerstappen.com.
"That he finished third, he owes to Ferrari's mistake at that second stop of Charles Leclerc. The championship leader, Max, was not helped in that sense by the chosen strategy. It turned completely to Checo's [Perez] favour. That was disappointing to me, and I would have liked it to be different for the championship leader.

"Max's third place was very disappointing," Joe wrote. "We all saw that it was a difficult weekend for him.
"It starts with the car, which simply doesn't have the characteristics for his driving style yet. Max has far too little grip at the front axle. And especially in Monaco, with all those short corners, you need a car that turns very quickly. That was just hard."

If I search "irvine monaco 2002 crash", I don't want to see 1996 Monaco Grand Prix Race Highlights

Jos whining about Red Bull strategy reminds me of those soccer dads whining at the coach for not giving their kid enough playing time. Well Jos, maybe if your boy didn't get regularly outpaced by Checo the entire weekend, Red Bull might've been able to give him a race winning strategy.
