@TTU11wreckem Cool, Ags had every team there as well. They were all in CS the day before and Austin 2 days before that. They all just made a trip of it and y’all were last on the stop because they might as well. Sorry y’all were essentially an afterthought.

I thought we couldn’t develop players in Lubbock…

@GrandPrixDiary In a Red Bull event? One where they have the right to allow whoever they want in? This is the quintessential FAFO moment for the “journo”. Maybe don’t be a smug little bitch when asking questions and pushing buttons. He’s just upset he didn’t get the reaction he wanted from Max

This is where we are at is it? A driver can now decide which journalists are permitted to report his dull utterances and which cannot? Who does he think he is?

@ChermitiLoyal @fodiographer @Aldas001 Actually, he pressed the button so it was his fault.

@fodiographer @Aldas001 You’re quick to say Lewis’ brake magic cost him 2021 and that wasn’t Lewis’ fault, so imagine what you would say if Lewis purposefully drove into someone in a fit of pure rage

Its your choice if you want to answer a question but to force a journo to leave before you start is just childish and pathetic The guy didn't even ask anything out of pocket back in AD, it was about an incident where Max purposefully crashed into someone and cost himself points

The guy knew he was being a dick asking the question the way he did. Max replied with a factual statement as well, then called out the smug SOB for his grin. A grin than confirmed he knew he was trying to push buttons. Every day in real life, not YT fantasy influencer world, there are professional courtesy type interactions like this. When someone is a dick to me in that way I generally refuse to continue business with them, as is my right. If F1 isn’t fining or requiring him to answer, and is allowing this to happen, then they agree that he is in the right. But everyone can go ahead and bitch and moan because it’s Max. Objective, level headed fans will just sit back and watch the circus. ALL driver have this right, and if it were any other driver doing it I would have the same opinion, would you?

@WhingerSpice @fia @F1 Every driver has the right to refuse in this way. Fans thinking that they have the right to force them to answer questions is the most ludicrous thing happening here.

Ultimately, @fia / @f1 needs to get Max into line and stop this controlling behaviour before it escalates. Force him to answer all questions from whoever’s present as part of his job as a well-paid and privileged professional sportsperson. There’s harder jobs in the world. #F1

@NotMyAggBurner She’s on one today with the borderline retarded logic. Don’t look at her Elon/New Orleans post.

Texas is the only school good at multiple sports and only Texas has to watch finances… Holy fuck man

2026 Japanese GP Preview 🇯🇵 Suzuka - a track that previously rewarded the driver, will be reduced in contributory value when it comes to the pilot this round. The nature of the track is about to present some of the now expected problems for these energy choked cars. It will be masked through lower deployment rate (out of necessity), but the ironic regulatory frameworks mandating certain deployment rates and scaling at various throttle positions means… this is going to be overly complicated and comical again, and there are bound to be some sections where cars drive intentionally slowly as a matter of skirting the deployment framework for overall energy availability in straight mode zones. The cars will not be able to be driven as racing cars should, and the pilots will not be able to pilot them as racing pilots should. Suzuka matches the lowest Brembo rating 1/5 for braking time and intensity of tracks on the F1 calendar - according to Brembo they expect cars to be on the brakes for roughly 9s per lap. Less harvesting, but expect some longer braking zones than we are used to, along with inevitable super-clipping before the final chicane and before the first turn. Given the nature of the 4MJ capacity limitation, and the SoC having to be managed over the combination of all sectors to avoid getting stuck behind traffic (since capacity is limited, you can’t just store up over a part of the lap and then dump later, it’s a constant need), the teams are left with a conundrum in how to manage the deployment. There are currently 2 “straight mode” zones available for the cars: the start-finish straight, and the back straight exiting spoon leading to 130R. Given what I would expect to be a significant amount of deployment on both straights, this seems destined to requires harvesting through the esses and spoon. I can’t see another way around that, as there’s going to be a significant amount of deployment jockeying from 130R on the sprint to the final chicane, which should be an overtaking zone. Expect more of the silly yo-yo racing as people attempt deployment dumps after 130R, and then get re-overtaken on the main straight due to starvation. Legitimate moves (if we’re calling anything that with these regs) requires setup over multiple laps, and probably very minimal usage of the overtake mode. Or, who knows, maybe it’s the new style racing where you dump the battery for an early flyby, then brake early for harvesting and take a nonsensical line to try and block while harvesting. That actually seems likely. The FIA clearly seems worried about the aero balance of the cars and the potential crash dangers by not allowing straight mode anywhere but the two “conventional” straights. I would expect more of the same - a really poor qualifying product (regardless of the timesheets, I simply mean the physical flying laps of the cars will be awful to witness), and a yo-yo time on Sunday with the Mercs eventually pulling a significant lead due to their enhanced compression ratio regeneration ability for deployment on the straights. Hopefully, the teams, FIA, and FOM are hard at work on fixing this disaster show we’ve had so far in 2026. A month off in April could be a huge help in remedying whatever can be done short term to combat the imbalances in the power distribution, and looking ahead to 2027’s ICE architecture. This is the first time in a while where I’ve just felt no connection to the fandom. Lewis or Charles could drive off and do a 1-2, and I am unsure whether I’d really care that much given what the product is. Which is a weird feeling as a lifelong fan who has spent a lot of money in the F1 ecosystem. I also know I’m not in a minority on that stance - the product is broken at the moment.

@EvanVieth @FortyAcreVibes @InsideTexas You said it. I just pointed out your hyperbole. It’s easy to point out regardless of how my team does because y’all constantly have to fluff your little fragile egos.

@texags08 @FortyAcreVibes @InsideTexas Easy to say that when Aggie fans have little reason to watch sports for the rest of the night after getting dominated by Georgia Baseball and Houston Basketball

How many days are bigger than this one for Texas Athletics? At 6 Central tonight, Texas Basketball tips off against Gonzaga for a chance at the Sweet Sixteen. At the same time, Texas Baseball faces No. 5 Auburn in a must win game to send the series to a Sunday Rubber Match.

Like, just a painfully soft fanbase. One of the most disillusioning parts of the SEC move.

@AmandaMAtwell x.com/espn/status/15…

Worse than male soccer players

@HornsBsblNews Did last night hurt you THAT bad? Soft.

You just LOVE to see it

@alanthefisher Then someone should finish a project and prove those people wrong. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

there are so many astroturfed conservatives against CAHSR because the second that there is a working train between 2 cities in the US that can hit 200mph it is fundamentally over for the argument of "that doesn't work here" The oil lobby will do everything possible to stop that

@Phil38671777732 @SoonerVirginia Sorry sir, it’s been 87 years.

@texags08 @SoonerVirginia Meanwhile aggies:

The 1987 Texas Longhorns finished with a 6-5 regular season record. Photo coming off a 5-6 season the year before. Lost OU 9-44. Rushing attack ranked 91st in the country. Moral of the story: Ridiculous Texas media hype has been around since before many of us were born.

@unravaduuubra @YIMBYLAND Good for you.

It's an epic policy failure that I cant take a comfortable, high(ish) speed train from Austin to San Antonio for a quick evening dinner on the riverwalk.

@Doc_Texas Hey, a non shit take from Doc, is the world ending?

Five Guys is not that good to be that damn expensive.

@WalkerATX @fox7austin When we were a proper city.

It's 1982 Aqua Fest in Austin and you're watching water ski jumping on Town Lake. @fox7austin

@unravaduuubra @YIMBYLAND You probably watched from your chair and now you have regrets.

@unravaduuubra @WPFMabie @YIMBYLAND You’re really obsessed with the him and you are projecting that onto me. He fuck your wife or something?
