It seems like VCARB not only has to be a junior team for drivers, but also for junior/intern marketing staff members making up all these shit names.

Toro Rosso was an identity. Could live with Alpha Tauri as well.

Well deserved test. But commercially not really a viable option for RB since 2025 is the last year for RB-Honda. Honda had to leverage the test according to reports. And also to hot-headed, even after all the managing and coaching.

Perez out, Ric in. Law in vcarb. Ric not performing > exit end of season back to 3rd driver or elsewhere (outside F1). Law or Tsu promote to RB

From the outside, looking at it as a couch analyst, that looks like a slam dunk solution.

It’s a different thumbnail now…what a pity.

When I saw this post scrolling by the thumbnail really got my attention…

That little piece of black mic in front of his nose…it just reminded me of some figure from the not so distant past…he also rallied huge crowds and they were all cheering for every single word he said.

Nonsense. Many F1 drivers have complained about the size AND weight of these cars.

Only a 30kg reduction in 2026 is dissapointing. But due to technology and safety a larger reduction is a very hard/expensive gain.

Zero added value that new PiP camera.

Europe here. Taking shoes off at the door is cleanliness 101 in my house. Stops people from spreading all kind of dirt inside the house.

Then well, there is the matter of kids and pets. 1 kid, 1 cat here. This fundamentally changes how you need to clean the house.

Sometimes I try to remember what a great princess once proclaimed: let it go, let it gooo…

Neweys contract is probably more tight than a cows ass during fly season.

His name did not rang a bell for me, but what a magnificent drive for this 18yo rookie in a Ferrari. You need alot of maturity to be able to pull this off at his age.

You are forgetting the Carlos Sainz las Vegas incident. Car damaged due to track issues (some cover sucked out), needed to replace several parts, went over limit in spare parts = grid penalty.

Stewards acknowlegd this was not his/Ferrari’s fault and thus had common sense, but the rulebook did not foresee any exceptions for this scenario. So they felt obligated to apply the rulebook.

This is a case where they also literally apply the rules.

I went on to do other stuff around lap 35…I get why Max hates 24 races if you only need 12 or so to become WDC.

RBR already miles ahead and getting an update in round 4 (Japan). Grim outlook for neutral fans of the sport.

Congratulations to Max for winning his 4th championship.

Looks like RBR made some sort of ‘hybrid’ version of the ‘zero pod’ concept. The vertical radiator inlet is very much like what Mercedes had, but Newey did design very slim sidepods around it to create undercut.

Probably another rocket ship in a class on it’s own. Newey…he’s like the Albert Einstein of aero.

The render makes it all look nice & shiny but it’s just an illusion, the black surfaces will be carbon for shure.

Nice to see them add some silver accent, now wait until we see a real picture and not this digital version.

We all want this to be good. Everybody also knows that Ferrari tactical is ready to shoot their own foot when situation gets hot.

Keeping expectations low anyway. All teams more or less ‘copying’ the design direction set by RBR, but copies are rarely better than the original.

That’s not gold, it’s yellow. Besides the iconic red another historical ‘classic’ Ferrari color.

Mercedes probably the most underwhelming paint job of all teams because, well, no paint at all to be expected.

What’s up with the front view left and right of the air intake. The oval-esque shapes. That’s some weird optical illusion or is there really something going on there?

Stylish livery and brand continuety as aspected.

Wouldn’t mind if F1 created a rule to make X percent of body surface obligatory painted.

The race to the bottom to add as little paint as possible (hi Mercedes) isn’t doing much for the look of the cars.

Apart from Stroll Jr. that wouldn’t be benificial for ASMR as a team.
