I don't want to be too blunt about it, but yeah, we're going to lose this one.

He spent the entire time yesterday sitting on the bench with an ice pack pressed against that eye.

I ended up voting for someone other than Perković because I was really put off by her comment about how shameful it was that her coach didn't win Coach of the Year.

Friday, 8:30 PM
New York - Chicago, bet 22, Mainz wins both halves.
Odds 8.5. (1/2)

Both teams have been involved in high-scoring matches lately. Mainz consistently finds the back of the net in both halves, and they play an aggressive style—they don't really settle for draws; they either win or they lose.
This is a solid pick for anyone looking to take a bit more of a risk with a single bet.

I honestly find that hard to believe... these news sites can print just about anything these days.
If someone actually releases a video clip, then I might start believing it.

It’s allowed over in the football subforum, which falls under the same supermod's jurisdiction (The edge), right?

I honestly don't get why you're digging up stuff like this.
If someone switches handles, who cares...
And it's not like he's running two accounts at once. His last post was over five years ago—seriously, what are you even doing?
I can't tell if you're trying to take a dig at him, but it feels pretty uncalled for.

darkmarlin16 said:rustydrifter10, you still around?

Look, I don't have anything against you personally, but a lot of your posts feel a bit provocative. It’s not that you’re being outright rude by calling people idiots or fools—you aren't doing that—but many of your comments seem designed just to stir the pot a little.
I don't have an issue with you, but since we're all on this small forum together, even those minor provocations can cause unnecessary friction.

Perez is stuck behind Button again. What a joke.

Convincing, sure, but easily the most boring race I've watched in the last 17 years.
It was a stroke of luck that Daniel Ricciardo actually realized it and decided to push things up a notch just to shake things up, even if it only gained him four seconds.

Those street tracks like Monaco or the Miami Grand Prix Circuit need to be kicked off the calendar ASAP.
We need to get rid of them and the sponsors who basically dictate which races make the cut.

Formula 1 has turned into something resembling politics.
Honestly, it feels like everyone is just looking out for their own interests, trying to push their own agendas no matter how shady it looks.
If I were in his shoes, I’d be having a serious argument about it. Using those kinds of tricks? Give me a break.

They basically held Sergio Perez up in the pits today.
LOL, they were swapping his tires, but that guy in front held him up for an extra second or two—just enough to let Jenson Button slip past.
Now, some people are going to call this nonsense, but I’m convinced this was all part of the script.
Instead of letting them fight it out on the track, they just stalled him in the pits to avoid any of those Perez-Button showdowns.

Webber might actually end up being more useful than Massa (but let's be real, he won't).
For Ferrari, having Hülkenberg sitting in P3 is a massive headache. The whole starting grid would look completely different if he wasn't there.
Still, I don't see it as some huge tragedy. Alonso can pull it off. Honestly, I think he can even if Vettel manages to grab the lead at the first turn. Actually, that's exactly the kind of chaos I'm hoping for. Whatever happens, happens.

I bet Hülkenberg has already received a text from Vergene telling him that if he wants that Ferrari seat next year, he needs to step aside for Alonso.
The catch is that the sooner they let him go, the more millions they save on his salary each year.
So, my prediction? I wouldn't be surprised if Hülkenberg "accidentally" misses that first corner in the opening lap tomorrow.

Between Kimi Räikkönen and Lewis Hamilton, there’s enough room at the start for plenty of cars to dive into that first chicane; this track is just built that way. I’m expecting a lot of lock-ups, shoving, and inevitable contact.
Plus, Lewis had such a solid setup and his lap times were looking really competitive, so I’d say he’s the quiet favorite here.

On the other hand, I'm not so sure. Sebastian Vettel's pace on the hard tires was absolutely outstanding.
Personally, I think this one belongs to him.

stormybadger8 said:Yeah, Red Bull Racing is definitely the powerhouse team, no doubt about it.
Like I've said a million times already, they’re easily the best crew on the grid. We're talking top-tier drivers, elite mechanics, the sharpest engineers... and honestly, they usually have the fastest car in certain areas, too.
Honestly, Horner is the weak link here. But hey, he's maturing with age, and let’s be real—he’s still outperforming most of the competition (unless you count Ross Brawn).

Since we're on the subject, you're still dissecting those random comments from the Sky broadcast.🤣

Bernie Ecclestone is basically telling Alonso he’s out at Ferrari by the end of the season, and apparently, the guy has zero clue where he's heading next. His only real options on the table right now? Marussia or Caterham. Typical.🤣

Brundle says the McLaren MP4-22 was by far the best car he ever drove...
So this advice is coming from a guy who was driving the Red Bull Racing RB7 and the Ferrari F2002 not that long ago? Real expert stuff right there. 🍿

Can you drop a link or maybe a recording of the conversation?

steelmaker83 said:What part of this don't you get? They're the weaker team. This was their last shot at making something happen, so they had to go all in. It didn't work, and now everyone thinks they're idiots, right?

If he wants to be remembered as someone who expects a royal court to cater to his every whim, then fine, let him have it.
Personally, I couldn't care less... but people are going to stop buying into this myth of him being some otherworldly driver if he keeps acting like this.
Go check out the Ford thread over on ESPN; the fans there are losing their minds over him, while his die-hard supporters are busy posting deep philosophical pleas for everyone to just give Massino a break.

It’s honestly embarrassing to see how blatant it was when Fernando Alonso was forced to back off.
Those pathetic radio exchanges were just painful to listen to.
Now I'm scrolling through the Ferrari thread seeing all this talk about how they "wanted to maximize results" and blah blah blah.
Look, if your idea of maximizing results involves forcing someone else to take the hit, then you've already lost. That's just sad.

1. Team radio during Q3, specifically Alonso’s response when they asked about the slipstream:
"So you want me to let him pass? You guys are absolute geniuses."
Translation: So you want me to let him(Felipe) pass? you are really geniuses

William Bennett53 said:What kind of qualifying session was that?

The Renaults and Hamilton... 🙈
Hulk! 🙏 🙏 🙏

It’s looking like a classic Ferrari scenario. 🤣

Alonso: "Felipe is too quick."
I suppose Felipe isn't checking his radio, otherwise they might have warned him he was threatening the majesty of the team. And the result?

4. Felipe
5. Alonso

Pure masters. 🙏 🤣

Embarrassing... look how far he's fallen.
He should probably just head back to the Ford Fiesta ST Cup.
