@shipwreckedcrew My take: seems odd as the manufacturers are dialing back the run toward electric vehicles, and F1 is going the other way. I do not get it.

I've been a F1 fan for a number of years off and on -- pretty much since Mario Andretti moved to F1 and won the Drivers' Championship. My interest has waxed and waned over the years, but I've been watching consistently for the past 15 years or so, the Lewis Hamilton era.
What they've done to the competition this year with the engines -- 50-50 split in power between internal combustion and electricity harvesting -- is simply beyond criticism. They have combined a great advancement in the aerodynamics package, with an almost fatal blow to how the cars are powered.
As someone online said, the cars sound like turbo charged hand-held hair dryers stuck on high.
They made the change to entice Honda to remain as an engine manufacturer, and bring Audi into the sport as an engine manufacturer. Both companies were committed to furthering electric engine technology for their passenger car business.
But through two races under the new rules, Honda has terrible reliability problems, Mercedes seems to have huge advantage in performance -- for its own team -- while the other teams it sells Mercedes engines to can't seem to figure them out.
Today Mercedes finishes 1st and 2nd in China -- like it did last week in Australia -- which McLaren, who buys engines from Mercedes -- had both cars unable to start the race because of engine problems.
Races in Saudi Arabia and Bahrain have been cancelled so there is a 4 week break coming up.
Ditch these stupid motors, build some V12's off the shelf, modify the body specs so they will fit, and just race the cars without all the nonsense spawned by the "Green Revolution."

No one is tired of the same old titles. We literally have a whole channel, widely loved, devoted to the same old titles.

🚨BREAKING: Sen. Kennedy’s bill just moved forward, and it hits Congress where it hurts: NO paycheck for senators during a shutdown.
If they can’t keep the government open, why should taxpayers keep paying them?
Do you firmly support this?
A. Huge Yes
B. No
IF Yes, Give me a THUMBS-UP👍!!

@NYRBlueBulletin Do the NYR have a blueprint for horrendous trades? Think of these given away: Park, Tatelle, Leetch, Middleton, Eddie (nuff said ), Zubov, Miller; add to the list.

On his birthday. Blasphemy. A dark day in #NYR history. And a sad reminder of what may have been in Michael Sauer.

On this day in 2004, the Maple Leafs acquired Brian Leetch from the Rangers in exchange for Maxim Kondratiev, Jarkko Immonen, a 2004 first-round pick (Kris Chucko), and a 2005 second-round pick (Michael Sauer) #Leafs365 #LeafsForever

I haven’t been watching hockey for a super long time but this 3rd period by the #CBJ has to be one of the worst in NHL history.
What an embarrassment.
