I love how so many people related to F1/motorsports are always running to NASA when they get a chance

An interesting read about Keisuke Honda's involvement with the Cambodian football: https://www.theasiangame.net/honda-driving-cambodia-forward/ Good to see he and Dalmas are trying to build a lasting legacy and improve football in the country as well as give opportunities to talented kids. I was skeptical when he was appointed at first but I must say I love the approach now. Bar that loss to Iran, they've also looked much better lately than what I was used to seeing in the past.

I'll PM you Chris.

“I think this year has been… it’s a real challenge to go up against a driver that’s been spoken so highly of by so many people and built up onto a pedestal." Ah Lewis taking digs at Max again

Yeah a few months now but can't wait to go back to be honest

Not sure I'll still be in Europe by then... But keep me updated.

Have been playing Jade Empire as per @Dr. Gonzo's recommendation. Have really really enjoyed it so far - and I'm only in the Chapter Two haha. The story line, the setting, the music and the characters are superb. I also like the real time combat system a lot; definitely prefer it to the one used in KOTOR. Didn't expect that much depth from the game world; love how it's based on "oriental" mythology too.

When are we going then?

Yeah I can't imagine him not having a drive next season. We currently have a nice bunch of talented young drivers coming up; it's good to see. Either way I wish there were more teams and more seats available as so much talent just gets ignored due to limited number of seats... And I'm craving for a Döner now. ffs.

I posted a long-ish post about it at the time when Alex got promoted so I'll just copy paste the part of it re: Albon vs Kvyat: "Also it doesn't surprise me one bit that Red Bull are putting Albon in the car instead of Kvyat for the rest of the season. They already know all they need about Kvyat whereas Alex still is a bit of enigma and this is a perfect chance to compare all of their drivers in order to make an informed decision for 2020. If Albon performs better than Gasly did, he should get the seat next year. If he performs at the same level as Gasly did, Red Bull will know they have to look for another driver for next season. Gasly was miserably slow in a Red Bull, Kvyat wasn't convincingly beating Albon in a Toro Rosso despite having 4-5 years more experience in F1; it will be very interesting to see how they do against each other now. " Kvyat is just filling a seat at Toro Rosso until one of the Red Bull juniors is eligible for the Super License and makes it to F1 anyway. A bit unfair to him as I also think he's a good driver; that's why I think he should be looking for a drive outside of RB/TR in the near future.

My fever is not THAT high

I have absolutely no clue about American Football but leading 31-0 is probably good, right? I was watching old F1 races for a while but just can't focus enough to care.

You're sleep talking again!

Good. I'll be pestering you for a while then

Anyone's still awake? I've got a cold (it's almost as bad as @Bluewolf's manflu) and can't sleep and I'm boooooored to death Talk to me.

I wasn't invited...

Just watched Episode 1 and really liked it... Will continue to watch.

American or Czech one?

All I ever really need to be happy in terms of beer is König Pilsener when it comes to pilseners and Franziskaner or Weihenstephaner or Schneider Weisse when it comes to Weißbier.

Pretty much answered on the first page of this thread before it went off topic.

Hamburg is class. Granted the last time I've been is more than 10 years ago but I doubt it changed all that much. I'm sure you'll enjoy it.

Just look for the red light in the windows, that's usually your best bet.

Don't think anyone cares about Aldi when at the Reeperbahn...

I like a Corona with a wedge of lime every once in a while. But I don't really consider it beer...
