“You can’t stop technology!” I scream while banging my head against the wall after the server where my $300k ape PNG was hosted on crashed, turning his portrait, once flowing with beautiful neon green fur, dark eyes with red pupils, and three different nose rings, into a singular red X.

This wouldn’t be that bad if the constructors championship retains the points format, it’s always frustrating when a team has one or two lucky results and is unreachable to other faster teams in WCC (thinking immediately of Indy 2005 where Minardi basically had nothing to race for afterwards)

Damn I keep forgetting more ones I believe in, I guess I do believe in a lot: Alonso stopped aging following his 2015 testing crash, as a result of being electrified by the car’s ERS system.

I also think there was something more to the Sutil-Hamilton dynamic than what we’ve ever gotten publicly, but I don’t really subscribe to them being in an actual relationship

I don’t believe in many F1 conspiracy theories, but I do believe in this, the Santander conspiracy to undermine Kimi at Ferrari, McLaren taking advantage of Spygate for their 2008 car, and that Alonso knew about Singapore 2008 at the time (even if all the records indicate no, he didn’t).

Mercedes couldn’t have George win that race because not only does it put Bottas in an impossible place, it challenges Lewis’ position as team leader.

They screwed up the tires first, and when George looked like he was going to win regardless, he comes the phantom puncture.

The same puncture Russell got at Bahrain outer 2020

“Using cutting edge AI technology, EA Sports’ F1 25 can calculate and suggest three optimal strategies for the end user” gets the dumbest among us very hard.

This is what I’m thinking as well. For some reason, if your net worth is over 10 million dollars, “AI” is the code word to get you to automatically open your pockets to whatever dumb shit is being hawked.

If any of them end up equal on points after Abu Dhabi, it will be decided on countback, where the current standings are:

Norris: 7 P1s, 6 P2s, 2 P3s
Verstappen: 7 P1s, 4 P2s, 2 P3s
Piastri: 7 P1s, 3 P2s, 4 P3s

3/3

So, that means:

If NOR finishes anywhere ahead of VER and PIA, he is Champion.

If NOR finishes anywhere on the podium, he is Champion.

If VER wins, NOR has to finish P4 or lower for VER to be Champion.

If PIA wins, NOR has to finish P6 or lower for PIA to be Champion.

2/3

Lando has been perfectly fine this second half of the season. McLaren has just been eating glue.
