GeneralEmergency,

It’s races like this that make me question why sprints aren’t more popular. Because some fans just don’t seem to handle actual racing.

GeneralEmergency,

Haas and Alpines taking each other out. Typical Sunday.

GeneralEmergency,

This is an old picture with the AI caption added.

GeneralEmergency,

It’s not. It’s an old picture with a new caption.

GeneralEmergency,

You’re on the fediverse. There’s no need to try and seem cultured, you ain’t get that boulder up the hill.

GeneralEmergency,

I too would rather eat a plane then french cooking.

GeneralEmergency,

full on straw man

I know your statement is. That’s why it’s been hard to respond. I’m still waiting on how you think smaller cars will fix Imola.

GeneralEmergency,

If you want to engineer every race to be the same sure. We tried that after Canada 2010, those early pirellis were something.

GeneralEmergency,

The racing was terrible even when the cars were smaller.

This isn’t a difficult choice.

GeneralEmergency,

Lastly if you’re going to argue the Imola is too narrow and should go away.

Never said that.

What I am trying to get at, is that you can’t force every race to be the same. And trying to is just going to lead to disaster.

Shrinking the cars isn’t the silver bullet that’ll fix whatever issue people have, especially at a track like Imola. It doesn’t matter how big the cars are if they can only take one line through a corner.

GeneralEmergency,

You can’t just change the cars for the sake of one track, a track that has historically been difficult for racing.

Similar to how forcing Pirelli into high deg tyres, chasing the energy of Canada 2010 was not a good move.

GeneralEmergency,

Your original comment gave absolutely nothing to go off. What does the “right size” mean? You’ve never once explained that.

You can watch the WEC race at Imola this year and see that the cars aren’t the issue. Or even the 2005 F1 race. It’s just the nature of the circuit. Something that when I’ve brought up you’ve ignored.

So your hypothetical question is either, design the cars to do something the track won’t allow, or dump a track that doesn’t encourage overtaking. And I would much rather F1 dump Imola, then get lost chasing shadows. Hence the mention of Canada and early Pirellis.

Now you’ve also said that I must want other narrow tracks off the calendar. Which is a major leap in logic that i don’t follow. And I’ve no idea how you came to that conclusion.

Shrinking the cars isn’t going to fix anything. There is so much more at play. WEC Hypercars are bigger than the old LMP1 cars, but the racing is a lot better. Which according to you is physically impossible.

respond to my position

I have. Repeatedly. But it is quite hard when I don’t think even you know your position.

GeneralEmergency,

Lol so you’re saying that it is okay for Monaco to be boring and have bad racing but it is not okay at Imola?

When did I ever say that? Also there’s way more to racing than just overtakes.

too wide for the track.

Modern cars aren’t any wider than they were in the 90’s, 2 metres. Same width as the 80’s and 70’s.

Do you have anything better than petty insults?

When I’m making multiple points that you are just flat out ignoring. Choosing instead to bury your head in other people’s opinions. It’s the only thing you react to.

I mean, I’m still waiting on you trying to explain how shorter cars would improve racing.

GeneralEmergency,

Monaco has always been like that.

It’s clear you don’t know what you’re on about, and are just parroting someone else’s opinion. Maybe after a few years of watching actual races rather than tiktok highlights. You might understand racing.

GeneralEmergency,

Those watching the race through tiktok clips with generic dubstep are going to be disappointed.

GeneralEmergency,

If it means Fromsoft aren’t releasing the same game again I’ll take it.

GeneralEmergency,

would love to see other teams as long as they are OEMs

The fuck do they think the Cadillac in Andretti Cadillac means?

This whole saga has been embarrassing for both the FIA and FOM.

GeneralEmergency,

The thing that gets me, is how obvious it is they want to keep not only Andretti but Cadillac out.

Remember when Domenicali talked about changing the engine formula for 2030. That two years after Cadillac was to come in as an engine supplier.

GeneralEmergency,

That light bike shot isn’t in the actual film though is it? Because Disney did sue over similarities to Tron, specifically the lightbike scene which was completely changed.

GeneralEmergency,

Pretty sure both McLaren and Williams receive money under some other payment.
