@fortifoursi We do this everywhere. Sporting events are delayed and stands emptied fairly regularly for lightning. You don’t mess around with big metal structures in a lightning storm.

How often do people get struck by lightning in Florida?

@grey_thoughts__ @paloustappen @JHartman7861 I’m not defending it; I don’t think it makes any sense, either. But it’s easily overcome, is my point.

@IowaRallyYak @paloustappen @JHartman7861 We’ve had 3 decimals. If they trimmed to 2 maybe I’d understand. 1 is unacceptable in the ‘pinnacle’ of Motorsport. I agree I should get all info onscreen no laptop and for those in wrong timezones the next day I can’t use a laptop etc. They removed useful stuff that hurts no one

this us one of the things that makes f1 unwatchable this year. these numbers mean nothing to me 1.500 is way different than 1.599

@paloustappen @JHartman7861 There is a difference in our approach to life when looking left and looking down are unacceptably divergent experiences.

@IowaRallyYak @JHartman7861 no youre missing the point. there is no world where i should have to have anything up but the race. if the timing showed what it needed to we wouldnt have to have multiple screens up for a race. im here to watch a race not half watch a race and look at my phone every 5 secs 😐

@JHartman7861 @paloustappen It takes very little to back-time it and make it match up. I pause as soon as the cars move on the formation lap, and unpause when TV catches up. Nothing to it.

@paloustappen @IowaRallyYak Just use the Formula-Timer website and add a delay to it. formula-timer.com

A reminder that you wouldn’t let F1 stewards determine the proper operation of a child’s lemonade stand.

@Lorem_Ipsum_Est @JennaFryer The AppleTV stream was about 20s behind the live timing in the F1 app, which is the same as it’s ever been. TV coverage is ALWAYS behind what is happening at the track. Especially here, where the video goes MIA -> UK, where it’s actually produced, and then out to TV.

@JennaFryer My guess is optimizations. AppleTV is either copying the livestream onto a CDN server first for more efficient streaming or they are adding some additional layers to the main F1TV livestream before relaying it back to you and the extra processing causes the delay

Apple TV is two laps behind real time of this F1 sprint race.

@josevi_1977 @Juanito77ok How are you people this stupid AND this confident all at once. It has nothing to do with the battery. Its safety (and law) for participants and spectators. Thunderstorms are life-threatening. Do yourself and us a favor. Find humility and improve the world through silence.

@Juanito77ok Si fueran coches de combustión y no la mierda que son ahora no habría problemas con la tormenta eléctrica, pero ahora igual si cae un rayo cerca o se electrocutan o recargan la batería de golpe y gana el que no toca 😂😂

Si la #F1 cambia el horario de una carrera por riesgo de lluvia esto ya no es F1! La lluvia ha creado héroes, ha definido carreras y campeonatos y es parte de este deporte.

@ImNotBekim When they’re moving to avoid a potentially deadly situation - violent thunderstorms are exactly that - and you’re crying about weakness, they aren’t the problem. This is a muppet brained take. Be a better human.

It’s reached a point where F1 is taking safety too far

@F1_driven F1 fandom would be better - much better - without the dorks and their little “I don’t care anymore” performances. Don’t care. Cool. Go away. Leave us all to be, since you won’t miss us. Just go.

Weird, I didn't really miss F1, and now it's back I'm bored & I feel as if I don't really care like I used to I feel like it's just so repetitive. Everything is the same, nothing surprising happens. The same rules can be exploited, the same commentators talking nonsense

@kneary22 If you’re going to be this stupid for everyone to see, you should at least get paid for it. Or hide your face. Actually, you should do that second thing anyway.

As always, Chicago sports would cease to exist if they didn't have Wisconsin to talk about

@WSoxCollin If you’re going to be this stupid in public, you should at least get paid for it. Or hide your face.

Wrigley Field

This anti-1st amendment gecko dicked motherfucker can’t stop sticking his nose into everything even vaguely speech related, and THIS is where he draws a line.

@kumarvikash @cytrusf1 The weekend is sold out. They’re expanding. The circuit is now being used more often, adding to the body of racetracks in the US. There is almost nothing to complain about here.

@cytrusf1 But if Demonicali is happy, then all must be fine

F2 race Attendance: about 3% Never have I ever seen more empty stands on the race day of Formula 2, not even in the 2017 Middle East races... And let's not forget F1 sprint is in an hour

Stratford IA, Population: 707 This is how Rob Sand loses.

@MalortMatt @WatchMarquee Is there a reverse prevagin I can take to forget it?

Idk how much more of this commercial I can handle @WatchMarquee

@CyGradCyDad @DanDDouglas That’s because it isn’t there. This absolutely sack of lying, false-prophet shit, would set up a system that would discriminate against his own child. Imagine the level of spiritual and intellectual depravity it takes to reach that conclusion.

@DanDDouglas Weird I missed that in Jesus teachings

This asshat is making me defend Feenstra. Someone explain to me what is against Christian principles by accepting everyone. Fuck this guy!

@dogeit13 @US_Stormwatch Areas of extreme and exceptional drought and this dingus is out there saying “but it rained today.” The confidence of a person with an IQ of 87 is absolutely unmatched.

@US_Stormwatch Same drought as in 2022. And they got rain yesterday and today and tomorrow. Another big nothing burger

This is unprecedented. 99.8% of the Southeast US is now in drought, obliterating the previous record of 87%. 94% is in severe drought (previous record: 71%). By far the worst drought the region has seen in the 21st century.

@ken_kmak8542 @BenFelds5r Sir, to have this thought bouncing around inside your bald head, is a sign of SERIOUS mental illness. Honestly. You’re unwell. I’m going to be charitable and presume you’ve been manipulated, but it’s time to come up for air.

@BenFelds5r But wasn't it done by his own boyfriend?

Why is it that a Democrat is never shot at?

@Walt_Gekko12 @benny_bets33 @MLBBruceLevine It’s a stand alone channel on YTTV, exactly like NBC. You don’t even have to open a different app.

@benny_bets33 @MLBBruceLevine And many have Peacock if they are a Comcast/Xfinity customer or it is bundled with Apple TV+ as I have it. Both have a lot of shows that make it worthwhile plus some NBA games are only on Peacock (and NBCSN).

Still waiting to see the fine broadcast of NBC Sunday Night Baseball. 4 of 5 weeks on Peacock only. What a waste of great broadcasters in prime time,performing for a small audience.
