    I see those pills I sent you haven't reached you yet...
  2. Kimi on faster tyres alongside Hamilton could make the start very interesting...

    I enjoyed smoking when I smoked. I actually like the taste of tobacco and still enjoy a cigarillo every once in a while. Cigarettes though are absolutely vile.

    Alcohol is too ingrained in human culture and history as it's likely as old as civilization itself and had numerous purposes (i.e. not only for pleasure) throughout the years. As for the blame - for me, it's solely the fault of an individual as long as it's a grown up with knowledge of the potential harm of misuse. Let's be clear here, the overwhelming majority of people in the world using alcohol do not abuse it or misuse it to such a degree where it has an impact on their daily functioning and the well-being of themselves and their families. Some are more susceptible to become addicted, but it normally takes years of abuse to get there and if said individual doesn't realise the problem and doesn't accept help, well I'm not sure we can blame anyone else can we?... There's a difference between drinking moderately and getting wasted like an Englishman on a stag do abroad too haha. The former is shown to have certain health benefits, the latter is destructive.

    I agree, smoking at least keeps you thin Joking aside, quality of food is definitely more important on a large scale, especially given cultural significance of food and eating.

    To be fair though, there's an addictive quality for foods as well; mostly sugar, salt and fats (so basically the main stuff in junk food) which impact the areas of the brain associated with pleasure (mainly seratonine/dopamine responses) and meddle with the brain's satiety mechanism. Lipids target similar reward areas of the brain as opioid drugs like heroin. I agree though that's essentially it's still each individual's choice though. Just like smoking.

    Hope that's those old Heavy Metal issues...

    These might help Joe...
  10. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw it happening, only 4 cars made it to the pits, the rest were stuck in that pileup That circuit is not suitable for modern GT cars to be fair... they are way too wide. Still fun to watch though As for the F3 crash: nah I don't think they really investigated it; both drivers went too fast into the corner and lost control under breaking... Imagine how heartbreaking it must have been haha. Habsburg was actually crying.
  11. Then do yourself a favour and watch this: It's epic And then watch this: As for Katayamas - I don't think they're related. I watch Super GT regularly, and Ukyo has his own team there which won last championship as well, but they have never mentioned any of his family racing in F3...
  12. One of the best races on the racing calendar, brilliant circuit. Have you seen Macau GP last year? It was amazing Habsburg overtook Sette Camara just before the last turn of the last lap, and then they both crashed into the wall allowing Ticktum to take the win from 3rd
  13. JAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Get in! Well deserved, amazing run! We've got a Schumacher champion again and I'm so happy he's proven all the critics wrong! Must admit I even shed a tear of joy
  14. See I fucking knew it puncture for Mick after a collision with Armstrong, did well to recover and finish 13, still no points while Ticktum takes P5... Damn!
  15. Yes, and Ticktum well behind in P15 and P10 respectively... Mick's got it under control, pleaaaaaase don't screw it up. I'm so nervous haha! Race 1 starts in 15 minutes... Mick needs to get 6 points and to outscore Ticktum to clinch the title in Race 1 already!
  16. Last and title deciding F3 round is upon us! Not the best Race 1 qualifying for Mick (P7); he's still ahead of Ticktum who's P9. Armstrong in P6.
  17. I think that's exactly what Mercedes are doing - putting Russell to test to see how good he really is for the future; they already know what to expect from Ocon, and to be fair to him, he's a good driver and would do well for Mercedes, but he could be a good replacement for Bottas, not for Hamilton once he retires... I like this new trend of talented youngsters being given seats in F1 lately though. Verstappen, Gasly, Leclerc; now Giovinazzi, Norris, Russell. Good stuff.
  18. Feel sorry for Ocon, but happy for Russell. Very likeable and talented driver. Well deserved.
  19. Ha - I finally found you on reddit. Not that I've been looking, but still
  20. To be fair, the hype around him is unhealthy and unproductive... It's obvious that he's a very talented driver, likely the most talented to come from the youth ranks in recent years, and he does have a likeable character and an interesting backstory that the media likes to milk - but there's no need to put him into the spotlight and under pressure that much and that early... Hope it all doesn't get into his head and a move to Ferrari doesn't ruin him.
  21. It's a matter of taste in the end... Fox Sports Asia use Sky Sports commentary on their broadcasts of F1, so I can watch it on cable without a problem, but I seriously find it so annoying that I willingly switch to streams instead...
  22. Also I love Allan McNish as a commentator, but I only have the pleasure of listening to him on WEC races.
  23. Brundle is good, Crofty is an annoying tit. Hausleitner and Alex Wurz on ORF are class, definitely my most favourite commentator pair. And anyone is better than the RTL ones
