I thought it was a pretty good race tbh. These cars are visually pretty quick, though that might just be the track. Good show at least.

Reel mowers do a good job but really you just need some rollers on the back

This isn't a herta post either. Seb Montoya was running the rental karts at cota during the f1 weekend 2017.

They were running full on mg green kart tires that were only lasting like 2 races on fresh pavement before cording. They were flat out if they hadn't blown yet

Hey cool I raced rental karts against an f2 driver

F2 based an entire car design around making it as aggressive as possible though

Still works fine. Doesn't have any off tastes in the water. Just smells like gear oil inside.

One of my most on brand things: I have an electric kettle that still smells like gear oil. It was used for gear oil once as a shop test almost a decade ago.

As opposed to the tire management races they've been doing since they limited engines so they're not doing engine management?

"Oh no, they're 2 seconds slower than the last cars" yes, with more power and less tire. Plus the wide tire era was way faster than previously

It's probably going to help with passing quite a bit, though it could have been avoided with front axle harvesting. Overall a bit too complex of PU regs, but i thought the cars looked cool. Cornering and on throttle looks like a blast.

I see f1 fans are up in arms about long braking zones to charge the batteries.

Wait I had forza 5 or 6 as well. I can't for the life of me find the disc though and it is annoying

I remember the one year they hadn't paid McLaren electronics for the ecu licenses and had to wait until Europe was awake to get live licenses to turn their cars on
