Sime11 Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 ok super late comment lol, went to the Moto GP for the first time last October at Phillip Island - I love Bathurst/Mt Panorama, but Phillip Island is hands down the best track in Australia !!! I don't think there is a bad viewing spot at the track, just a phenomenal track !!! although when the Moto 2's sound way better than the Moto GP, there's an issue that's not being discussed... they weren't bad but just not as high pitched/screamy like the Moto 2. The Moto-E demonstration, that competition will not last, the wind sounds louder than those electrical bikes.... waste of money & time.... Marquez V Lorenzo on the same bike in 2019... if Lorenzo gets the settings right, Honda will clean up everything ... but Marquez will be impossible to beat... he could genuinely win 10 Moto GP titles... absolutely insane.....

Davo Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 Still trying to figure out what Ferrari were thinking at the end of the race. Not a huge fan of the team orders although Leclerc seems to be ok with it all so I kinda get why they didn't want him racing Seb and trying to pass in the last few laps. What I don't get is why they didn't pit him for fresh tyres and take a run a fastest lap. They lose 23s in a pit stop and he finished 29s ahead of Magnussen so why not go for it? Mercedes had already told Bottas they weren't going to pit him, Hamilton was still racing Verstappen so neither of them were pitting and Gasly was right on the back of Kvyat racing for a point so he wasn't stopping. Nobody else had a quick enough car to go for it. The fastest lap was a mid 1:25 and Leclerc did a high 1:26 on the last lap with the hard tyre. In qualifying he was doing 1:23's on the medium so even if he was putting on an old set he would have got it comfortably, taking an extra point and taking a point off Mercedes in the constructors championship.

Neverbloom Posted June 9, 2019 Author Share Posted June 9, 2019 vettel's penalty was complete bullshit, great race apart from that, happy for Daniel, i do love how he switched the 1st and 2nd place things around which was childish but funny as hell but then asked people to not boo lewis even though he deserved it, respect him a lot after that JackDoff 1 Link to comment
Neverbloom Posted July 11, 2019 Author Share Posted July 11, 2019 HAAS vs rich energy is confusing right now https://twitter.com/rich_energy?ref_src=twsrc^google|twcamp^serp|twgr^author Link to comment
Davo Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Rich Energy CEO Storey attacks own company’s Haas statement as “ludicrous” The whole thing from start to finish is mental. There are questions over whether they actually sell energy drinks as nobody's ever seen them or been able to buy them, they got sued by a bicycle company for stealing their logo (with the court ruling that they were deliberately misleading and falsified evidence) and now their CEO and major shareholders are arguing with each other on the same twitter account. Right from the beginning pretty much everyone said that they looked dodgy and Haas were going to regret it. Apparently the approached Williams first and got a pretty solid "yeah nah". Link to comment
Neverbloom Posted July 13, 2019 Author Share Posted July 13, 2019 agreed with davo......this just keeps getting more nuts with every second Link to comment
Davo Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 It gets better. Rich Energy said they terminated the contract but Haas denied it and here's their "proof" that Haas is not telling the truth. Yet if you actually read the letter it says that Rich attempted to terminate the agreement based on car performance, even though performance wasn't in the contract, so Haas said it's not a termination but a breach and they're totally ok with them breaching their contract provided pay out the whole 35 million pounds or they'll get sued. I personally wouldn't have tweeted that... Carns and Neverbloom 1 1 Link to comment

Davo Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Awesome race. The only thing I didn't like was Kubica ending up with a point after the Alfa Romeo's got penalised. I've got nothing against Kubica but that one point will probably mean he'll finish ahead of Russell in the championship even though Russell has been dominating him all season. Also I did enjoy how Mercedes had their worst race of the season and they were all standing around thinking their retro outfits just make them look dumb now. I guess it went well with their 1950's style pitstop for Hamilton that took nearly a minute. Neverbloom 1 Link to comment
