Alt+F1: 61 - Japanese GP 2015

LET'S GO RACIN

I see now that those are traffic cones but uh.. those aren't what I thought they were on first glance...

This image is horrifying.

Ha ha, they linked to the gif I made :D

Vroooooooooom!

VRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

That Six-Wheeler looks like Danica Patrick's car in Sonic & All Stars Racing Transformed.

@hammondoftexas: reminds me of that top gear challenge

Like others have said, I'm just going to call super-super soft, the super-duper soft option.

That'll be "hoons large", tyvm

Looking forward to this, I'd like to hear their thoughts on the current Michelin tyres for 2017 question if that was news before recording. (I almost said "if the news blew up before recording", bad taste).

The "guest spots" were hilarious.

people like Hamilton cause hes fast, he beat Alonso as a rookie when they were teammates and finished second in the standings, as a rookie. Also Hamilton wasn't always this dominant, he still has fans from when he was kinda the underdog for like 5 years after his first championship, and put in amazing performances in cars that weren't always great. I do understand that people new to F1 would be kinda sick of him, especially if they only ever saw him dominate.

@hassun: I think you mean freaking adorable!

hahahahahahahaha awesome opening

@drewbert As a PA native, Reading is pronounced as Danny said it (past tense, i.e. "I already read this" vs "I will read this"), with a short e.

Yeah, I'm new to the sport*, and I'm quite tired of Hamilton. I know the Vettel domination years weren't super fun for most people, but I suspect I'd've been tired of him too, had I been a fan during that time frame. I'm finding that I'm a big Ricciardo fan, and Verstappen is really fun to watch. Button seems like he'd be really fun in a good car (for some reason I can't remember how he did last season, or even who he was with. Probably because it was my first year, and I'm really bad with names, especially when learning now stuff like a whole new sport).

* (only even truly learned of it via Drew. Amusingly, I was [for a short period of time], helping as a learning engineer with the college version of F1 [Formula SAE?] at UT Arlington back when I was doing an Aerospace Engineering degree in 2009-2010. Somehow I did not really ever learn of F1 while doing so. I also had to stop being a part of it before the race season began in order to focus on school itself, so maybe that had something to do with it).

The last six wheeler in F1 the Williams FW08B got banned before it was allowed to race.

Those cones in the image are mad because I murdered some of their kin in autocross

Anyone know how I could watch some trucks this weekend?

The guy who lost his legs in that crash was Alex Zanardi. A horrific crash.

I love the intro music to this podcast...makes me HAPPY.

Thanks Drew and Danny

Can't stop laughing at the Gene Haas voices guys. This is just a great podcast.

Aww, Danny didn't like that goofy ass Sky intro? It's been the only one worth a crap all year.

Finally remembered to check out that Honda 8-bit thing. It's pretty great.
