So much this. Even in a Haas (won’t happen it’s a Ferrari) he’d be better off.

Re: No F1 thread?
The ONLY way a team like that could win A championship is if there was a rule change and they “did a Brawn”. Well, innovative design, yes. That's exactly the point I'm making, save your Vettel salary and invest it in the designer or equipment that's going to give you a chance to find the next doubl...

Re: No F1 thread?
I didn’t say I thought he was a good driver, just where I thought it could end up as Tracing Point were shaping up to be even more of an unofficial Merc B team at the time.

Re: Lunch time meetings
Do you get paid for your lunch? Do you get paid overtime for working lunches? If the answer is no to both, tell them to get to fuck. That’s not the attitude we’re looking for, Steve (especially when the people above are on fixed salary contracts and not defined hours, so their view is you can go fu...

Re: No F1 thread?
They’ll never win if they aren’t willing to take risks and push beyond their comfort zone. But Stroll has proved it’s not about the desire to win for him with his team choices. Can agree with that. They'd be better off keeping Perez with the money and points he brings in and dump off Lance in favou...

Re: No F1 thread?
It’s a bit of a shame imo. Dave! Pour quoi? I think it should be the driver making the decisions, have a put board saying time to next driver or your own lap time etc. That sounded too much and the engineer dictating when he used some of the cars features. It should be the skill and talent on the d...

Re: Lunch time meetings
EU/International isn’t a problem because funnily enough they get it. You’re also berated for suggesting meeting slots when the French have their lunch. Sticking in another meeting slot called lunch is an invite where I work, that’s classed as free time and gets the response of ‘well your calendar sa...

Re: No F1 thread?
That was a one off scenario, they spotted the tow opportunities and the race engineer fed the data in. I don’t think they were expecting to pass both cars at first and when they did they quickly realised the next car up the road was going slow enough to be caught. Normally in stuff like that the dri...

Lunch time meetings
Why do people feel the need to check your calendar, see it’s free not at a lunch time , then proceed to bung an hours meeting in at lunch time or worse still a regular hour meeting slot at lunch time? Then you have to suffer the noise of other people chewing as they talk, or chewing when not on mute...

Re: No F1 thread?
I think Kimi is hanging on for the regs change then he’ll go. We could do with a big shake up of drivers and get new ones in.

Re: No F1 thread?
The rumour mill is hotting up, Vettel to replace Perez at Tracing Point because if you’re serious about moving up the field why wouldn’t you take someone on who’s won races and championships at other top flight teams to develop the car? It would mean Stroll activating a get out clause in Perez contr...

Great to hear someone who has a positive experience, can I have first refusal on your ‘good’ car when you come to sell it?

Re: Huawei
While there we also caught them stealing fuel pumps to no doubt copy. I’ve found some of the lengths they’ll go to staggering. I worked with some of them who rather than do their own job in assembling the product right in the first place and resolving issues where spending 90% of their time trying ...
Re: Huawei
No, of course I don't cos I'm fick innit? :roll: I just find it interesting to see what level of potential intrusion is acceptable to the point of not even giving it a second thought. having a Chinese made TV isn’t intrusive! Anything with a code base and processing built in can be intrusive, so a ...

Re: Latest scammer trick
I’m interested to see if he follows up and goes for the car or the cash, the obvious one seems to be the cash but that leaves a trail and I can’t see anyone trying to withdraw 40k to clean it, however if he opts to take the car with a V5 and he flips the car to someone else who’s unsuspecting (it’ll...
