Jack Kelly5 said:Oh, come on now, even the old beasts were absolute monsters with heaps of turbo power and they managed to drive through the rain just fine. I mean, you aren't hitting 150 mph, maybe more like 80, and you aren't braking 400 feet late instead of 250. If someone isn't capable of handling that, well, what are they even doing in Formula 1?
Man, you clearly haven't seen the standing water out there—even SC had issues and they weren't even pushing it.

At least, that's the story he shared on his Instagram feed.🤣
Jack Kelly5 said:It’s honestly kind of wild to me that a handful of the world's elite drivers seemingly can't handle a race when it actually starts raining. Like, I mean, just keeping the car under control at maybe 50-60% capacity, using wet tires, staying in lower gears... it shouldn't be that hard, right? Are they really just that overrated, to the point where most regular people probably wouldn't even finish the race?
No way. Even the old legends wouldn't be able to drive these modern cars through those puddles on part of the track... they'd basically turn into boats before they finished.
Jack Kelly5 said:Like, I’m just saying again, let them check the car, that’s literally what they get paid for. If 60 mph feels like too much for you, then maybe just cruise at 30, I guess.
Alright, but yeah, I probably wouldn't compare the roads at Platko to the streets of Monaco.
You seem like one of those people who’d still be arguing the same point even after everyone else ended up wrapped around a tree. And honestly? What's even the point of driving 40 damn miles per hour... that's not really a race.
fadedwalker18 said:Exactly. I honestly don't know where this conversation is headed.
Given those conditions behind the SC, they probably should've been doing like 60 instead of 130—man, seeing that kind of racing when a beat-up old Ford Pinto could probably outrun them is just... yeah.
