No F1 thread?
Re: No F1 thread?
Enjoying the Formula E this weekend. Second race currently on iplayer. F1 could certainly learn a few things from FE. Please no boring comments about the noise blah blah electric cars are shite. Change it up.
Re: No F1 thread?
maybe list the things F1 could learn, to counter those comments.
Re: No F1 thread?
Graphics, small things like a course map with the marshal yellow flag marked. F1 has that graphic I think but rarely uses it.
Direct commentator to driver chat, nascar style.
Winning car drives straight to a cool podium celebration.
Will.think of more.

Re: No F1 thread?
I saw some of qualifying yesterday but it was so drawn out that I lost interest after the second set of 6 cars. Not a fan of how that is conducted!
How about not having a sig at all?
Re: No F1 thread?
I agree, just watched the superpole bits which was actually quite exciting.
Bit of an awks end to this second race but nm.

I guess actual engine noise and proper g force makes it rather difficult to hold proper conversations with an f1 driver mid race.

Re: No F1 thread?
I think that's taken from Indycar - most of the time it's pretty silly though, much like the pointless Brundle/Croftie talking to someone on the pitwall, you're not going to get any useful information out of the team/driver during a race.

Re: No F1 thread?
Can you imagine Kimi's reaction if Crofty started blathering on at him in the middle of a race?
If you get all wobbly-lipped about the opinion of Internet strangers, maybe it's time to take a bath with the toaster as you'll never amount to sh1t anyway.
Re: No F1 thread?
Yeah, probably wouldn't work too great in a sport that more than one country/coverage/language watch.

Great looking car. Do Aston Martin actually create a single component or does it just have their emblem plastered on the front/side/back/underneath?jamcg wrote: ↑Wed Mar 03, 2021 2:35 pm https://www.evo.co.uk/racing/203575/202 ... reveal-new

Re: No F1 thread?
They partnered with the right F1 team at least. Doughty but useless.
Re: No F1 thread?
Livery looks good at least......

It’s daddy stroll’s team, so racing point renamed as Aston Martin. So in the sense of that technically yesGG. wrote: ↑Fri Mar 05, 2021 1:46 pmGreat looking car.
