I guess it’s good that both parties deny the allegations. The problem for Tyson now is that questions about this and the past Shadman support are going to follow wherever she goes.

I fell into that initially as well, but I checked the FEC filing to get the address, then used the address to check property records, then went back and looked at the interviews with his folks to see their names for reference. The residence is that of his parents, so it seems to be him that donated.

Coolcoolcool a second chance to run into Oscar 🙄

edit - some salty ferrari simp has now disliked all comments referencing this lmao

My orange pirate boi says hi!

Rhodesians be like

Had one of their fridges a while back with their proprietary compressor design. It kicked the bucket at about 2-3 years old. All appliance repair shops that I contacted in my area, including an LG-certified one, declined repairs. Most of them even immediately asked if it was an LG when I asked if they did compressor replacements to head me off at the pass. It was a good product while it worked, but that’s only half the equation.

but muh heritage or whatever 🙄

Virginia has toesies AND booba, can we get our own category

Introduced in Suzuka on Hamilton’s car. It’s on the left of the intake I think? The camera has a larger FOV than we see, and software uses the horizon as a reference to create a frame that rotates as opposed to having the camera gimbal.

What a time to be a papaya simp! Terrific turnaround from the beginning of the season to now.

Gratz to Max and RB I guess. Checo though…yikes

Papaya party bay beeeee

Also I’m ready to be hurt again

Man, I am so excited to see Lando and the updated McLaren have a great weekend. It looks to have us potentially in the mix with Merc and AM. Psyched to see Oscar get the new car next weekend too.

Absolutely awful. I love historic circuits and am in favor of keeping them on the various motorsport calendars, but there needs to be a roundtable on what can be done to improve safety on this section of track.

The fuel nozzle is a completely mechanical implement - there’s nothing electronic about it, and the pump has no idea whether you are manipulating the trigger or using the hold-open.

Because it’s mechanical, however, the way the hold-open is designed needs to allow for further actuation of the trigger mechanism to free up the hold-open lever when your tank is full. Because of this, the highest setting on the hold-open is less than the full actuation of the trigger mechanism.

happy papaya noises

just fuck my shit up fam

Echoing a big thanks to everyone here. I’ve been on other platforms since the mid 2000s, and this is the first time in a very long time that I’ve felt that this is the start (obviously not downplaying the efforts of users of Lemmy before…things…happened elsewhere) of something special. That being said, this is not a “mission accomplished” moment - we all have to work together to keep this going. A lot of us are recently coming from a platform where the sheer mass of thousands of users online simultaneously was keeping a reasonable flow of content coming. Keep posting first and third party content, keep asking questions, keep fomenting discussion, and keep being nice and welcoming!

That was indeed 2.8 at racing speed, as they maintained that speed (save for keeping left to avoid the debris field and then Russell) up until the safety car notification came out. I believe that both were actually clear of the debris field before the local yellow for that, which was only there momentarily before the safety car. It was at the exit of the hairpin that that the SC was called, Oscar accelerated down the straight, and Lando pretty much didn’t.

The actual amount that you are allowed to slow down is kind of nebulous. When the safety car comes out, per sporting code 55.7 there is a delta time that the drivers must stay above (which is to say, be slower than). The stewards’ decision makes no mention of this code section or the associated penalties described therein, so Lando was presumably within this parameter, which is to say that he was driving slowly as directed by the sporting code. This is the parameter that he mentioned in the interview.

This means that the crux of the issue is sporting code 55.5, which, among other things, directs that under safety car conditions that no car may be driven UNNECESSARILY slowly. See what I mean about nebulous? There is the hard delta, but then gray area between that and barely creeping along. It comes down to conditions on the track and the stewards’ judgment. In this case, the track conditions relating to his competitors were the problem. As Lando was going along slowly, Charles was tucked in behind him. Neither him nor Ferrari were cross on the radio about pace. Alex, however, was tucked in behind Charles and noted on the straight that “the Mclaren is holding back”. Further drivers accumulated in the train heading down casino.

Sporting code 55.5 doesn’t have any specific codified penalties enumerated therein, but impeding other drivers by building a gap ahead when they are unable to pass due to the safety car condition (save for positions gained on the pit cycle) is unacceptable. That’s why they had to go with a breach of sporting ethics instead. As an aside, the track map graphic was up when all of this was going on (at least on F1TV), and the vast gulf that developed after Oscar followed by the Lando train had me with my head in my hands.

I’m a papaya simp, but Oscar and Lando were running consecutively when all this kicked off and I agree with the stewards on this. Let’s look at the data.

Gap when sector 2 caution was flown: 2.9s

Gap when safety car was called: 2.8s

Gap when arriving at pits: 7.3s

At the beginning of that lap, Lando was instructed on the radio to give 100% pace. They were in the lap window for the first of a two stop strategy, and that direction usually means that pitting is imminent. A safety car in that timeframe is a literal no-brainer for a stop.

Lando asserts that the team did not direct him to box until he was most of the way down Casino. That’s technically true. However, when Lando was at the exit of turn ten, he received the radio message “Lando, safety car, safety car, you are the second car, you are the second car. Oscar 3.”

Lando already knew that Oscar was the car ahead. He had overtaken Nico at the tail end of the previous lap, and even if he forgot that his teammate was the preceding car to do that, they were accordioned in 10. Once both cars were on Casino, Oscar accelerated off at a pace sufficient to cause the car to scrape down the track. Lando was on-off throttle and was weaving around.

This can only leave us with the obvious, which is that Lando received and acted upon tacit instruction to build a gap between him and Oscar to allow for the double stack.

All changes in parc ferme were either with comparable parts or within allocation, so the final starting grid matches the provisional.

I’m really excited to have my best bois Lando, Oscar, and Alex in the top ten, but honestly expect that they (along with Nico) will mostly just cause a traffic jam. Here’s to hoping though.

Nice, when I was writing my original comment I was wondering about doing it that way
