Ya but this year was much much much worse than previous years. so everyone just tooled along to get their tires to the end. Not that most years are much better (unless it rains), but this particular year had the perfect scenario to make the race as boring as possible. So, sprinklers along the course that go off at a random time for a random amount and a random flow, but I still like my go kart idea better. |

Originally Posted By warp_foo: Will this offset the 'secret' Mercedes tire test/conspiracy? m View Quote There is no conspiracy about that Mercedes test. It was illegal. And done to improve Mercedes way to manage the current (at the time) tires used in competition, against the rules. There is a reason both Red Bull and Ferrari protested. In fact they (Mercedes) couldn’t finish a race with them, and magically after this test all these issues were resolved. https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/what-was-behind-mercedes-and-pirelli-secret-f1-tyre-test/3219584/ There is nothing secret about this pirelli planned and announced test that the FIA has agreed on. with tires that won’t be used this year, and prolly never since they will evolve from that version… https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/pirelli-set-for-new-extreme-wet-weather-f1-tyre-test-with-ferrari/10615262/ Totally the same.. Didn’t realize you missed me already ;) glad I could help with that. |

I claimed that making (or implying in your case) the argument that two complete different things are the same, in an attempt to elicit an answer from me, was indeed retarded. Wasn’t that what you implied with your « that was different… »? (I know the meme, and I know what the 3 dots imply..) |

Originally Posted By flyhack72: You are editing your own posts to look better but the originals have all been captured. View Quote I haven’t changed anything you have quoted. Before you claimed victim status about the « retarded argument » formulation I made, I wanted to change it to « asinine » instead to avoid any confusion, but I reverted it back as soon as you started whining about it and quoted it. It was always my intention to qualify the comparison, not you. Also. You initially didn’t quote anything, and edited your post to do so. And added some. So don’t blame me for things you are doing yourself. On top of that, don’t provoke and tease people (that was exactly what your two initial posts were about) and then cry when i answer you. Edit: ps: I sometimes edit my posts before they are answered if I find mistakes or if I believe I didn’t exactly convey what I meant to convey. But i don’t change meanings after they have been answered. (A cross posting/editng can still happen though- which happened with my « asinine » replacement. And this is why I reverted it back after I saw your answer) Edit2 : apologies to everyone else reading this thread. I agree that all this back and forth is useless and boring. I will not be posting anymore for a while unless I am invoked. But people can’t provoke my answers with allusions and provocations and then act surprised if/when I answer. |

I didn't engage you at all. You were the one that went straight to the retarded comments directed at me and other members here. Your projection and conviction assumed that I was directing anything towards you. Just like Shadow_Dancer, you assume anything posted here that is contrary to your beliefs is a assault on you. Your reactions and posts that directly attack people are unbecoming to the decorum of this thread and you try to negate what your actions precipitate after the damage has been done. The only way to combat people like that is to simply not respond and ignore them, which is what I have done for the past few weeks until you called me and others here "retarded" I'm done with responding to you, your insults, and your trolling. |

View Quote This is also my last answer to you. « He is saying what everyone else is thinking » (in reference to the klairon call directed to me…) « That was different… » (in reference to the supppsed conspiracy theory of the tire test) Those 2 post were a direct reference to me complaining about those illegal tests for many moons in the past. I believe that now saying this had nothing to do with me is in bad faith. Now, in the case I am wrong, then I truly aplogize to you as well. But in all honesty, I do not believe that you were not directing those 2 posts at someone else than me. And again I didn’t call you retarded. I said comparing the two type of tests and claiming they were the same thing was retarded. End of topic for me. Enjoy the next races. Edit: i read the whole page again. I now understand how your two post could NOT be directed directly at me. Even though we would disagree on the conclusion that the two things were the same, I understand that you were referring to the « similarity of the tests » when saying « what everyone is thinking » and not the Klairon call part (thus me). I may have been way too defensive after all the pokes I got on the last few weeks and this probably made me mistakingly take your posts as personal provocations. More reasons for me to step away from the thread for a while. That won’t change anything and I don’t expect them to, but my sincere apologies to you. |

But at the end of the day with all the drama since the beginning of the season could you blame them for not wanting to bring in SAI. I would love to se SAI at RB as it would be a significant upgrade. Failing that just drop in Lawson into the seat. Can’t really get much worse. He did okay last year in place of RIC. |
