    Thanks @keithcollantine!

    I think @peartree can have this one (or failing that I guess @jackysteeg can finally have a go). I’m not quite in the position to come up with a question and watch over the attempts at answering it at the moment

    @keithcollantine 2 podiums, 4 podiums, 8 podiums, 16 podiums? (MSC got 17 in 2002 or VET got exactly 16 in 2013)

    So VET 2013?

    the Canberra Milk Kid ad from Mark Webber. Tops them all.

    Oh dear God that ad. I’m not sure I want to look it up and have another watch.

    V-10 with an 18,000rpm limit like the old days? Remember, real MOTORsports?

    TIL F1 in the ’80s (and the DFV era before) was not real MOTORsports. Because there’s no replacement for displacement and even V8’s simply didn’t cut it.

    I think the cars were much closer in performance [in 2009], and left more of the outcome to driver skill.

    the year of the BGP001.

    I suppose we’ll watch Hamilton/Mercedes win the rest of the races this year,

    You’d be REALLY disappointed with the world championship’s F2 era.

    Is Hamilton as good as Schumi? NO WAY! He’s just got a Mercedes F-16 fighterjet doing his work.

    I don’t see why insulting Rory Byrne, JEAN TODT (of all people), and I guess Brawn like that is a good idea.

    Standardizing components and design parameters” may bring driver skill more to the forefront, which is my greatest hope

    Indycar? F1 has always been an engineering contest as well, even with Lotus/Williams/McLaren/Ferrari/Brackley domination.

    DRS should just turn into what F-duct started as.

    #365996

    @garns<blcokquote>I hope they do, its a great circuit.Not the greatest circuit but pretty good and yeah, would like to see them back as well.

    Just haven’t been following their news so I missed the bit about them going night race (either that or forgot about it), assuming there were such reports (the existence of which you’ve just cast doubt on, oh well).

    @garns

    Malaysia but that is off the calendar now for a few years until it will come back as a night race.

    Today I learned.

    @omarr-pepper

    Definitely. Every time I want to watch a race, I need to find an illegal web stream, which only lets me watch the race after disabling AdBlock, and after 20 clicks on “close this tab”

    there’s a motorsport streams subreddit where people provide way better than that.

    I think I’ll just give it to @jackysteeg. I was thinking about the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th drivers to have won a round of the World championship with a non-F1 car.

    His list is different than what I had in mind but starts with the same 5 drivers (also he posted Parsons when I asked for Ascari. in both lists Parsons was 1st and Ascari 5th)

    So….on to @jackysteeg I guess.

    #360227

    @jackysteeg I put the question mark after the 3rd driver in my list so if the guys were 2nd-3rd-4th I’d need the 5th, not 1st.

    And anyway that’s not quite the reasoning I quite had in mind, though you’re getting very warm there. As I’ve said the reason I had in mind has to do with “F1”

    but again, very warm.

    (excuse the double post, also never realised L4s sort of dominated American (single-seater oval?) racing so TIL)

    also I can’t in the limited time I have to write this find a way to confirm/disprove that the winning Offys (Offies?) were all L4s butEDIT: Well Wikepdia calls them all Offy L4s…but anyway that’s not quite the reasoning I meant, though you’re getting very warm there. As I’ve said the reason I had in mind has to do with “F1”

    but again, very warm.

    #360010

    15 hours after a clue was asked for and no other guesses…so it’s got to do with F1

    #360123

    that’d be possible

    #360107

    another clue: I didn’t start with the first guy on the list (though still within the first 3)
