I'd rather to not be able to hear the announcers at all LOL. I'd prefer no announcers and loud NA engines echoing through Monaco.
I agree, monaco is more of a fast parade of race cars. The real race is qualifying. Quote:

To be honest, whatever they've done to the recording process, mixing and editing of the sound is doing a good job. The cars sound like a lot is going on and have a very enjoyable sound. It's not screaming and ear-piercing, but it's very enjoyable, especially when coupled with turbo blowing sound and charge-up whine under braking. Very cool.

so much win.
side note…why does that picture look like its from the 60's or 70's?? These guys are both my age…that's gotta be from 1992-1994ish |
"We're not friends".....great pic
I like Hammy but I took a couple steps back this weekend.... He started with the mouth running early and Rosberg took the high road. His behavior on the podium and in interviews was pretty embarrassing. Take your thumb out of your mouth bro. Man up, let your driving talk and please quit whining. Hammy needs humility badly and while I appreciate his emotional makeup I think Rosberg is being a much better man about things. It is pretty clear that it is truly "on" now and no one will talk Hamster out of his take on things. Every race weekend I grow in respect for Daniel though and he truly seems a gentleman AND a pretty good racer too! It is quite refreshing. He may well be able to split the Mercs at some point and it will no doubt be very well deserved :-) |

Also for what it's worth, it looked like Rosberg had a pissy attitude when he was on the podium when hamilton won |
Let them fight. Enjoy it while we can!

You can dissect the links I posted but his immediate reaction to the qualifying incident this past week is not surprising to me. |
As much as I love F1, I wish it was even half as exciting as this:

Nico takes pole fair and square from Lewis. Will be interesting to see race strategies play out tomorrow... For Mercedes and for the others. I always love Canada's track. May have to make a trip there one of these years.

Yeah, last weekend was chock full of excitement. From United Sports Cars and back-to-back IndyCars at Detroit to MotoGP, I was fully engaged. Tonight's IndyCar Texas night race should be eventful (recording now, will watch later). So happy for Nico's pole. Ham was gracious during the post quali interview, someone must have calmed him down. Looks like another Mercedes power unit 1-2, maybe 3-4 considering average speeds and huge straights. My head is with an expected Ros/Ham shootout although my heart is with Kimi and/or Jenson, both seemingly afterthoughts this season. |
Anyone watching the Canadian GP right now? What do you guys think is failing on the AMG cars? ERS in the rear brakes?
It's a shame, I was really excited for Lewis and Rosberg to take it to each other. |
It was interesting hearing the team communication with Rosberg early on about where Lewis was with his brake bias. I think this was before their failures. But in that you heard that Lewis was using more rear bias. This is something he's somewhat known for as well. That I think is what led to Nico being able to stay in it. Lewis' rears were already too far gone when it came time to rely more heavily on them.

IMO it showed how the FIA was snookered by the straw man case that brought the most radical change in F1 in history that produced unreliable, unnecessary, boring technology that actually slowed the cars down. That's progress? More like the cars are running on snake oil. Of course that didn't slow the insufferable NBC commentators from hysteria, proclaiming it the best GP of the year and firmly cementing them as network toadies, although I'll exempt Hobbs who was uncharacteristically quiet throughout the debacle. At least there was some humor that Vettel mistook for support when he credited Renault in a quasi-French province and the crowd cheered. At least we have LeMans to look forward to, I've about had it with F1 this year. |
