I can still watch F1 on the dutch TV but I prefer the BBC commentary.

Do I understand correctly that I could stream live BBC commentary of every GP on the 5-live stream online?

Quote from amp88 :Hands up who else thought Alonso pushing Vettel onto the grass on the outside of Curva Grande was worse than anything Schumacher did in this race (but neither were worth penalising).

+1

Far worse than Liuzi passengering into the field in T1 aswell. The fact that multiple cars where crashed out does not instantly make losing control on the grass a crime.

If Vettel lost it and went into the wall then Alonso would have been punished even though the move was the same. (ok maybe not, it's a Ferrari @ Monza)

in general i'd say it's like this

Most efficient way up: rpm close to where the max torque is.
Best way down: same gear as up

There is quite a lot of bitching about iracing lately but I must say I am still enjoying it a lot.

I drive skipies most of the time and the NTM feels good to me in this car. (apart from the total absence of tire wear).

However, the necesity for having bought all cars to compete in multiclass racing is clearly commercially driven, not technically. If they can prevent people with run out subscriptions to take part in races, there is no doubt they could keep people from racing cars they have on their hard drive but did not pay for. It's just a commercial decision that is defended poorly by the marketing department.

That was fun.

Great combo and on-track conduct!

It seems quite common for race sims to not meet deadlines.

They may have been a bit ambitious with their forcast but I prefer a late/incomplete rollout to a halfbaked one.

I still enjoy iracing as it is but look forward to the NTM.

People who do not and have have prolonged their subscription shouldn't have done that. You lose nothing by letting it expire. just revive the account after the rollout if iracing is not good enough for you in the current state. That's a more effective way to motivate the devs to stay on top of it than prolonging anyway.

Quote from 'GreyBull [CHA : And yea Shotglass, F1 will not die any time soon, but quite frankly, it barely has anything to do with the good old exciting F1 of the last century nowadays. Though those news don't bring any surprise, they do not bring anything exciting either.

Road cars are not as exiting and pure anymore either so it's only natural that that reflects in racing aswell. Technology just takes away character but sticking to proven technology would be artificial aswell.

I think running on electrics in the pits is quite sensible and even though it might seem dull, leaving the pitlane and firing the engine up on the line could make up for it.

Quote from Seb66 :^thats from the email that was sent out. I'm really hoping now that existing accounts just means anything but a new one All the way through the rest of the email though it says "extend your membership". Hmm we will see

Just be patient.

Iracing is from another timezone and it's still the third of june.

Quote from amp88 :What research did you do? Can you cite any sources?

I do not quite understand why you are breaking S14 ball's over this. He has given far better opportunities for that over the past few years.

As far as I can see, you both agree on the fact that the random thingy is a source outside the computer.

Just tried the Okayama track.

What a great circuit, nice flowing corners and quite wide.

Quote from amp88 :However, when combined with an external source computers can generate truly random numbers.

Wouldn't the external source be the random generator in that case?

I do not think this suggestion of Bernie should be taken too seriously. If it will be implemented, it will only lead to conspiracy theories from teams that are disadvantaged by the timing of the "rain".

In my opinion the moveable wings and kers are allready too artificial for proper racing, with fake rain in the mix F1 will turn into something less related to racing than mario kart.

Liquor in the front or poker in the rear?

I'd rather poker in the front than liquor in the rear.

Fart or burp?

Spa is a lot trickier than I remember from other "sims". I never realised the straight towards Eau Rouge is that narrow.

I took this one in Berlin last year. The Porsche was an added bonus when I was framing my shot of a piece of remaining wall and a construction site.

Quote from Jertje :Is anyone racing the Star Mazda this season? I always hated that car with a big passion, but having tried it again after 1 year of not going near it with a stick I must say it feels good! Just wondering if anyone is up for some friendly competition

I will mainly be doing the Star Mazda this season. Great fun!
