They'll do it at least a few times per year.

That thing is amazing to look at.

GT6 has an event at the RBR so I wanted to share. Track is a bit different now with some well placed huge curbs.

He has had a hell of an F1 career. I expect to see the same from RAI in a year or two, he has been at it a while too.

Normal life. Funny.

Kimi has a new found burst. Hard to say with him. I don't ever see him not driving something. Somewhere someone will pay for him to be their driver.

Friend shared this UPS Mosaic Ferrari Dickbutt - Album on Imgur



But then another friend said they fixed it, but I don't know what they fixed, but it's still funny. "Ted and his sandals" made me raugh out roud.

Oh, here: https://www.facebook.com/ups/photos/...type=1&theater

^ that was good for a laugh.


Go Ham! Good to see the dickbutt cars still on pace, and McClaren making progress. Get your shit together Renault...

Finishing under safety car, anticlimactic...

Stupid Renault, made Horner shake his head on camera, and while it was kinda funny, that means it's a pretty bad situation. Let alone the couple snide comments he made in an interview.

ROS is making himself look bad. His comments are a bit... stupid. Not a gracious loser.

Blame HAM (who is many seconds ahead and probably not even in his view half the time) for going too slow, backing ROS up allowing VET to come closer? As HAM said, he had every opportunity to catch up and try to pass, but he didn't. ROS cried, Merc said HAM we need you to do a specific time now. He did exactly the time they told him to numerous times to the hundreth of a second (which is incredible). Then before he pitted, he laid down the fastest lap yet (I think) by a good chunk of time. Saving tires as that was their issue at the race before.

Blames HAM for going too slow, allowing VET to catch up a little, VET throws in the under cut pit move, forcing ROS to respond the next lap and pit and still, on fresher tires, didn't catch up to HAM (even after HAM pitted a few laps later). Then the BS about how he had to do a longer stint and killed the tires by the end, though HAM who pitted a just a few laps later had plenty of tire left in the end, so he said.

Blaming another driver for ruining your race... sounds pretty normal to me.

Both ROS and VET should feel kinda lucky the race finished as it did, cause Kimi was coming for the both of em.

HAM owned that race from the green flag (light tree count down). I was shocked when they told him to run 1:43.2 rather than 143.6 and he just nailed it. How the heck to you time 10ths of seconds while driving at race speeds. while sitting in a seat that has gotten hot and is uncomfortable on your ass....


HAM earned that win via smart tactics and great driving. If not for the safety car, I think Kimi would have had VET, he just kept getting faster. Kimi on the radio is classic too... "Get these cars out of my way" LOL


ROS has been a bit of a crybaby, he is not content being the teams #2 driver. Man up or drive faster ROS! HAM was going slower to conserve tires, should have made a move then and put the pressure on him. Nope, easier to cry that your team mate who is in the race lead is going too slow...

I'm willing to bet many hours are spent in the simulator and these drivers know how to pull a specific time on a specific track due to knowing the kah and said track. Then add all the practice runs, then the quali and of course the race.


My favorite wienie-boy radio transmission: "Lewis is slowing down so should I speed up?"

They practically live in a simulator. That gets them ready and gets the car close to a decent set up before they even hit the track for FP1. If GT6 is any indicator, if you hit your brake points the same every time, and don't peel out, lap times can be nearly identical. If you're not pushing 100%, through say, a sweeping corner or lifting early before braking, that's where you make up the time when they tell you to.
