Some Mexico City Grand Prix thoughts - fulltimesportsfan.wordpress.com/2025/10/29/f... There was racing!!! And a lot of shrieking towards the end #Formula1 #MexicoCityGP
Formula 1 2025 – Mexico City Grand Prix
Most important thing first – there was actual racing! At the Mexican Grand Prix! For the last couple of years, I’ve said it was really unfair that the marvellously loud fans in Mexico d…

Snapshot USA has been collecting annual wildlife camera data since 2019. Might be on the shorter side for timescale but the spatial coverage is excellent (all 50 states). The data are tidy, annotated, and ready to go.

The Giants exhibition (www.birminghammuseums.org.uk/exhibitions/...) at Birmingham Museum is definitely worth seeing. Interactive stuff was pleasantly interesting even for a grown up. #Birmingham #Megafauna

What technological innovation, helping drivers change gear much faster, did Ferrari pioneer with its 640 model in 1989?

My US Grand Prix thoughts - fulltimesportsfan.wordpress.com/2025/10/23/f... or there's a reason the Circuit of the Americas is my favourite of the US races #Formula1
Formula 1 2025 – United States Grand Prix
The racing at the Grand Prix supports my belief that the US Grand Prix is the best of the US races. Is it also the only one on a purpose-built track? Yes. Do I think there’s a correlation the…

The only reason this isn’t 5 stars is entirely a me-problem, and I’m trying to be reasonable. I wanted more science to go along with the pictures. A couple of elements had two pages of …

#Roofman - it relies heavily on Channing Tatum's charisma (and Kirsten Dunst). It's not the comedy its trailer pretends it is, but it's solid. #films

'Oversteer' is when the rear of the car tends to slide wide during cornering, requiring opposite steering lock to correct. 'Understeer' is when the front of the car tends to push wide, not turning sharply enough.

What do the terms 'oversteer' and 'understeer' refer to regarding a car's handling balance?

Focusing on all the wrong things, but Laimer has the most assists in the Bundesliga?!!!!!!

Ekitike and Marmoush were big losses, but Frankfurt's attack hasn't dropped off at all.

The two youngsters replacing their production are must-watch talents.

Would love some recommendations for biostats texts! Especially biostatistics using R. Feeling a little out of my depth with this, but hoping to find a great resource for self-teaching.

There's a diagram here that makes me wish I wasn't 6 months behind on everything and had updated my Salah vs Shearer vs Kane diagram for the 2024-2025 season (fulltimesportsfan.wordpress.com/2025/05/10/t...) it's on the to-do list.

The Ig Nobel is incredible , one year an Indian guy won it for calculating the average surface area of an elephant and during his acceptance they had an elephant hold up a sign with the surface area of the scientist on it, they do showbiz better than the Oscars

Video: a Japanese scientist was attacked by flies while giving the acceptance speech for his Ig Nobel Prize-winning research paper that proved painting Zebra-like stripes on cows led to a decrease in biting fly attacks.

Desperately trying to distract myself from the play-off game today, here is the next in my series about Saints 2024 season - fulltimesportsfan.wordpress.com/2025/10/04/s...

Game 29 and some patterns are reinforcing themselves and others are breaking up. #RugbyLeague #DataVisualisation #rstats
Matrix chart of players who play together when Saints score. The bottom quadrant is a mid-orange. Then there are three players in a paler orange section (Whitley, Bennison and Batchelor), then the darkest section, a purple-orange two of Welsby and Blake. Above them is much paler indicating that those players are not together as often when Saints score. There's two clear teams, the most often together (a full match day 17 - Welsby, Blake, Whitley, Bennison, Batchelor, Dodd, Percival, Bell, Hurrell, Mata'utia, Sironen, Lomax, Mbye, Clark, Makinson, Delaney and Lees) and the less often together (12 - Royle, Whitby, Vaughan, Wingfield, Walmsley, Robertson, Burns, Paasi, Knowles, Davies, Stephens and Ritson).
