Cool bro. Make the ice go more vroom then. Higher fuel mix less wear but higher mass to drag around.

Lose the hybrid system and suddenly there's a lot of weight reduction that can be translated back into a v10 šŸ˜

Different discussion - thereā€™s plenty space for a larger V6 but youā€™d then be complaining about the fuel flow limiter :laugh: Heck, not sure why youā€™re not nowā€¦

Because it's not the thing causing the guys to go round 130R slower than a citi golf

Because the FIA and FOM are still holding meetings to decide how you should measure Liters Per Volt Amp ......

Q: (Andrew Benson ā€“ BBC Sport) Charles, there have been two different races on different tracks where thereā€™s both been these yo-yo type racing battles that youā€™ve been involved in, among others, perhaps for different reasons. Can you explain why those battles are happening in that way, and if itā€™s different from track to track, the reasons why? And also on a wider scale, is it like Mario Kart, as some people have said?
CL: Honestly, I was very sceptical at the beginning of the year, and after testing I had some particular expectations going into the year that werenā€™t very good about racing. Iā€™ve been positively surprised. At least for us in the front, itā€™s actually been a lot nicer than what I thought. Surely, youā€™ve got some overtakes that are artificial, just like it was the case also with the DRS sometimes last year. However, there are also many overtakes where itā€™s actually on the limit and where you end up in a similar state of the battery at the same point for different circumstances, which makes it actually quite fun. Weā€™ve seen it in Australia, weā€™ve seen it in Shanghai, and Iā€™ve had a lot more fun than I initially thought. As I said, I think in qualifying itā€™s not the most fun Iā€™ve had, so this is maybe something that we need to look at. But in terms of fighting, I enjoyed it a lot more than what I thought. And why thatā€™s so, itā€™s mostly because Mercedes is quite a bit stronger than us, but as soon as you get out of that optimal window of the battery, you lose a lot of lap time. So that brings the cars together and thatā€™s why thereā€™s a lot of change of position, together with the fact that the car behind recharges more than the car in front. These two things specifically make it quite difficult to go away once you are in a fight.

Stop posting nonsense then. Perhaps Max can learn to adapt or perhaps try some novel techniques to make his car more front heavy and harvest moreā€¦
