So now they’ve told Charles Leclerc there isn't any rain coming in the next 20-30 minutes—as if that gives them any chance of surviving even half the race. There's definitely going to be a red flag in about an hour.
Instead, they’ll just sit around waiting for 15 hours before suspending the start, drifting around behind the tunnel where visibility is zero the second you emerge, and then—of course—they'll throw in a rolling start.
First off, the marketing is a disaster. Second, the visibility is non-existent because it’s pitch black out there—maybe they should actually invest in some decent lighting next year and make it look like Dubai.
It’s just like in professional football—if you play less than 80% of a standard game, the whole thing gets scrapped and replayed, and if the season hits less than 50% completion, nobody gets crowned champion and no one gets relegated. Ideally, the winner might even jump up a tier if they meet certain criteria, or maybe the top three clubs get a boost. They ought to apply that logic here, right? If they finish less than 50% plus one lap, the race is null and void. No points, period.
Hey everyone, greetings! Everything was working perfectly fine with my HP laptop until yesterday—but today, I turned it on and ran straight into a wall.
I got hit with this message:
The Dell BIOS application selected is corrupt or missing. Please install the application and try again.
BIOS Application ERROR (501)
ENTER- Continue
And look—when I hit Enter, Windows boots up just fine and I can go about my business. I tried restarting it, but nope—same exact error every single time. I haven't even touched the BIOS settings! The only thing I did was swap out the power adapter—which shouldn't matter, right? I have no clue why this is happening.I haven't deleted any programs or files, so I'm completely lost here. Maybe the CMOS battery died and needs a swap? I don't know the first thing about that stuff, so I'm hoping you guys can help me out.

I am reaching out regarding the constant, aggressive trolling occurring within the Formula 1 subforum. To be clear—it isn't just certain users; even some moderators are uncheckedly trolling about topics that have absolutely nothing to do with this board and have no business being here.
Example 1:
This thread is completely UNACCEPTABLE and does not belong on this board—just look at who started it. They’re debating some random President (I haven't the slightest clue what the argument is even about) and dropping offensive, inappropriate comments that don't belong here, such as:
(Why hasn't this been penalized?)
(Same question.)
(And this one?)
Look—either you hand out red cards or you don't; that's your call, but I want this thread moved to a more appropriate section or deleted entirely—and frankly, those moderators should lose their status on this board. Furthermore, I am demanding penalties for maminha and this individual:
because their trolling is spamming nearly every single thread on this board. Nica, Anderson, and the rest—take note. Since they're failing, I am volunteering to run this board if they are held accountable for the reasons I've laid out.
The exact same thing is happening here, starting with the first post:
And this:
I also request that this user be punished, along with everyone else continuing this nonsense:
Bottom line: I want a functional Formula 1 board with me at the helm if possible—or at least under someone sane. Allowing these threads to exist is pointless, and individuals need to be sanctioned.
Guys, switch over to ABC—you won't want to miss this. Starting Monday at 8:05 PM, there's a five-part series called Hero of our time. I'll be watching—hopefully you will too.
Since FP3 is getting scrapped—which is just typical—it’s only fair that everyone gets their predictions in by 2:59 tomorrow before qualifying kicks off. Honestly? I’m expecting total chaos—typhoons, maybe 2 or 3 red flags, a start under the Safety Car, and a race that ends early at lap 29 or 53... or even sooner, if things go south like they did in Malaysia.
