man, it is just lining up fast
we will have AFCON to keep us busy in meantime, and then to pass onto F1 pool, that will be active during summer as well, when all other pools dry up

Is it certain that Red Bull will continue with Perez this season?

didn't saw official confirmation up to this moment, but didn't follow it carefully, maybe just missed it

Time is really running fast. I hope that at least one team can manage to go head-to-head with Red Bull in the new season. It was quite boring to see Verstappen and Red Bull winning constantly last season. I couldn't keep up with the last news. Is it certain that Red Bull will continue with Perez this season?

They introduced the sprint races to have more audience on Friday.

Now since they qualify in on Friday, they achieved their goal and they will expand from here.

I really don't like sprint races. I wish that they never existed. Especially when qualifying sessions are held on Fridays it feels nonsensical to me. The idea you have mentioned above could be good. Having qualifying sessions first and sprint race after on Saturdays might make weekends more enjoyable.

Sprint races are nice for me but they need to change something to have them more interesting, often in the last 5-10 laps nothing happen.

I also don't like sprint races,it would be best if we keep the usual old way of qualifying and remove sprint races as in most cases we have not seen real action exactly because they are just that,sprint races with a lot more fewer laps than the original race.Either we make them to be like 30 laps and one mandatory pit stop to add to the action or we don't need them at all to be part of the F1 season as we have seen that they do not produce any real emotions in the way they are structured in the last 2 years that we have seen them implemented.

They are talking about to change the sprint race once again.

They wanna do a reverse grid from the qualify for the top 10-12.

So if you do the pole position you will start 10th.

It's really really crazy to force people to use one tire I agree, imagine asking all football clubs only to train/play with Nike shoes.

I hope they "nerf" RB then, as coinlocket$ points out maybe it's going to be an intervention that shapes new season. I hate interference but I hate domination more.

IMO, it's not completely correct comparison. They're not forcing football clubs to play with Nike shoes, but they have to play with Nike ball because league have contract with them. When I think about multiple tyre supplier in F1, first thing that comes to my mind is 2005 Indinapolis GP when just 6 cars started because of tyre issues. I think it's very unlikely that F1 will have more than 1 tyre supplier anytime soon.
We have 3 months until new season and if you you already miss F1, think about positive side - you won't hear Dutch national anthem for 90 days Cheesy

.

Well, okay, I guess you're right, but you all have to use the same ball, and if you change it, everyong gets the same change. But shoes some brands never work for Asian feet, or European feet or whatever, and you can still customize your shoes, or use socks or whatever to make the shoe fit, whoever does it better gets advantage.

I have no idea what the point of arguing though sorry I made the comparison lol.

But yes please, no more anthem for 3 months or wrong flag memes (Russian flag supposedly always gets used).

I'm very happy for seeing that there are people who are already eager to join. Even though there is still a long time for the new season to start Sportsbet.io which were our sponsor this season will continue to support our pool next season as well most probably. I hope that FIA can manage to weaken Red Bull with the rules they will bring and we can get rid of listening to Dutch national anthem after every race. Cheesy

I wasn't planning on joining this pool next season after my abysmal result. But I think I may have found a way to beat the game and wanna try it. So yeah... If this pool is running again next year, I'll play with you guys again. Wink

I think it's less than three months to go before Bahrain GP..? Tests on December and the cars are unveiled on Feb? It's really not that long before next season. Grin

Hopefully Ferrari and Merc catch up with Red Bull on car development. I'm starting to hate Verstappen now. Lolol.

I just read that RB only won $5m more than the cost cap (whic they broke previously).

So... essentially, they didn't make any money huh? I always assumed races brought in money but if you spend so much...

Quote from: coinlocket$ on November 30, 2023, 05:33:10 PM

I told you guys at the start of the season.

Piastri is a greater driver and probably better than Norris.

I'm definitely going to put him into my early season pre outrights if there's such a thing. I know it's probably gonna be waste of money but the odds should be really high and you never know if nerfs happen, then Piastri gets OP from some change right?

Keep on dreaming I know

I wasn't expecting to win the yellow cap in the last race in fact because Perez really scared me with his high effort. He was nearly getting to the podium with the help of Leclerc which could have risked my place in the leaderboard of the pool also. I understood Leclerc's action there of course. In the end he was trying to help his team take second place in the constructor championship.

But he just made the race more stressful for me. Grin

By the way it was really unbelievable how Ferrari couldn't think of saying the same thing to Leclerc.

Ferrari couldn't understand what Sainz did in the Singapore GP also though, I forgot about it for a second. I see it clearer now. Grin

Next season can somebody please stop Max???

It depends on FIa honestly.
3 years ago in the winter, they chose to remove 18% of the back drag for the cars and it was the main strength of Mercedes.
So they chose to nerf the Mercedes in the winter and Max won the 1st title right after it.
It may happen or not happen with a small change, like new tires etc etc .

I would also agree on changing the monopoly of Pirelli and add the competition back in Formula 1,I think the first rule to change is that every team would be able to choose the tires they like to choose from any provider who opts to become a provider to Formula 1 cars and trust me there should be a lot of them like Bridgestone,Michelin,Goodyear to name a few,if other brands want to jump in the wagon they should be welcome too,as easy as that,at least by doing so we will have a variable that can change a lot the competition in F1,even if no other things changes in here it is great to have at least this.

Verstappen is currently one of the most talented drivers on the grid. When we combine a driver like this with the most powerful team this happens. Grin

To be honest I don't feel like his domination will fade much until 2026 season.

As long as the regulations don't change significantly I don't give it much chance to happen. Because Red Bull are currently too ahead of the other teams. Small regulation changes can't be a worrying obstacle for Red Bull at this level. There is a voting process by teams of course so I wonder what the majority of the teams would say about such big change.

Congratulations to all the winners😁 unfortunately I came in 12th place and I know nothing about F1 but I am happy with my first season and I learned a lot about F1 😁

I have won the yellow cap 1 or 2 times and the F1 prediction contest 1 time this season, so I feel i got something back, but most importantly a lot of excitement this season😁

Thanks to CLS63, jeremypwr, Steve and Sportsbet! I'm ready for next season! 😁
