The Renault F1 team have been found guilty of implementing and using an illegal driver aid in their cars. The stewards decided in today's hearing in Geneva that both Renault cars are disqualified from the Japanese GP results.
That would be the 1957 German GP, but F1 probably don't have any video of it...Artur Craft wrote: ↑12 Oct 2019, 21:21
Btw, f1's official youtube account uploaded the best F1 race ever, the 2005 Japanese GP.

In suzuka drs is worth maybe 0.5s, and on most tracks it's probably less than a second.Artur Craft wrote: ↑12 Oct 2019, 21:21drs( accounts for 1 to 1.5s),Juzh wrote: ↑12 Oct 2019, 14:11Please don't remind us about those horrible pirelli wets, it's just unbearable. I don't get it how a tyre company as big as pirelli can't make even half decent rain tires???? Just incompetent imo. Raikkonen put it best just days ago: "f1 looks ridicioulus not running in wet conditions".

Sorry mate, but if you cant see drs effect on bottas' lap then there's really not much else to discuss. Even the speedo says bottas is 10+ kmh faster.Artur Craft wrote: ↑12 Oct 2019, 20:53what tow?! 3 guys here saying thisThe car in front is way too far away. There is no effect. Bottas just was 0.35s faster on s2.
Yes, it is indeed a treat to watch a race that’s not at 4am our time here “across the pond”, so to speak.sprint car76 wrote: ↑12 Oct 2019, 18:49Watching the race at 10 pm is perfect here in canada. I'm with dan79 since i have to get up at 4am usually for most of the races.
Totally agree with you about F1 not having a greater fan base here in the States and our Canadian friends north of us. It’s not anyone’s fault- it just is what it is. Being an F1 fan here requires a commitment and a willingness to forego sleep most of the time.Nickel wrote: ↑12 Oct 2019, 19:20This. So many in Europe get bent out of shape about the times for a handful of races, but forget that the bulk of the calendar is setup to give them races at nice convenient times. It's a much bigger commitment to be a fan in North America. Even races like SIngapore are basically night races to allow nice cushy viewing for Europeans.sprint car76 wrote: ↑12 Oct 2019, 18:49Watching the race at 10 pm is perfect here in canada.

I find it amusing that this is never discussed in the million articles discussing why F1 can't get a solid foothold in the US. As a Canadian fan, I can tell you that watching F1 around here is not for the casual viewer.
From what I heard on twitter, it's sunny but still strong wind in Suzuka.
