I spent hours keeping an eye on it today as I had the same fears... So far so good... But I don't trust the one hiding between the stones in the last pic (there are two of that sort) and the black and white striped ones; those four gang up on all other fish every time. Bunch of bullies
Racing Point, Ferrari, Haas and Williams have all reportedly passed their crash tests already.
Sauber allegedly failed theirs and destroyed the chassis in the process, leading to potential delays.
No info about other teams so far.
Scientists used stem cells from frogs (and evolutionary algorithms in supercomputers) to build first living programmable machines. This is fascinating stuff.

@Mel81x you might be interested in this if you haven't read it yet!
@Tommy I think I owe you money for getting the bold predictions of the season wrong well one of them at least (Max winning the title); the other was rendered irrelevant after Albon moved to RB!
Today I learned that cheetahs are apparently so shy (to such a degree that they get too anxious to procreate and are becoming extinct as a result) that zoos give them emotional support dogs to help them learn to socialise and relax... And then I saw these pics:
Now I need a dog AND a cheetah.
We have five "new" injuries at least (Lang, Augustinsson, Bargfrede, Veljkovic, Bittencourt are all doubtful) and no new players so far so one more loss wouldn't be surprising at all.
An interesting read about FC Pinzgau Saalfelden, a club in the 3rd tier of Austrian football led by Christian Ziege with investors from the US who want to transform it into a fan-owned club.

Not sure what the agenda here is. Make money by selling the shares/fan ownership packages and then disappear?
So did Max and Ricciardo The more the better. I usually hate celebrities publicly gloating about their donations to a cause but granted this often helps attract attention and mobilise others to do the same so I see the reasoning behind it.
So reportedly we have reached an agreement with Felix Agu for a free transfer next summer; potentially he might even join during this transfer window already if we're willing to pay Osnabrück around 400k to let him leave now.
