An interesting race with 20 MB 190E 2.3-16’s all with great F1 drivers...this is from 1984

Turn on subtitles and then in Settings change the language to English (auto generate).

20 similar cars all racing on the newly revised Nürburgring F1 in the wet...

Could a rookie win against the likes of Stirling Moss, Phil Hill, Niki Lauda, Carlos Reutemann, Alain Prost, Jack Brabham, James Hunt, and Denny Hulme to name of the 20...

This is to try to get the Wicked Witch of the South-East (Dale Sr’s widow) blocked from ruining a huge chunk of land from pristine terrain in to a industrial park. For her to make $$$$$.

After Sr died she pissed allover the real Earnhardt family by sueing them for using their last name on existing business like the manufactured homes, car dealerships and not doing what she was supposed to do with DEI, that was setting up for Jr and the rest of the team/employees/family to continue the NASCAR Quest, she wouldn’t even let Jr. have His #8 for the cars. And lots of other things to cause problems for the Real Family.

Thank You All.

The F1 wins from the lowest grid position
https://www.the-race.com/formula-1/f1-wins-from-the-lowest-grid-position/#

The record-setter was John Watson, who started 22nd at the 1983 US West GP. Bill Vukovich started 19th at the 1954 Indianapolis 500 which, at the time, also was an F1 points race. Then Rubens Barrichello started 18th at the Y2K German GP. And there are two others keeping Max company at 17th.

"...“The Most Dangerous Racer of ALL TIME” "

When he was SuperRat's teammate, Clay Reggazoni was known as "the driver of the world's widest Ferrari.

Hambone, never one to pass on an opportunity to bite the hand that feeds him, made this cryptic radio transmission during the race:

Cryptic Hamilton radio message raises questions over Mercedes future
https://speedcafe.com/cryptic-hamilton-radio-message-raises-questions-over-mercedes-future/

“That was a disaster of a weekend, guys. That’s the worst the car’s ever been. Thank you for continuing to try. Great job from the guys at the pitstop. If this is the last time that I get to perform, it’s a shame it wasn’t great, but grateful for you.”

What an absolute snivelling, snot-nosed, diaper-wetting child. As if he was unaware the whole world was listening.

Then speaking to the press after:

“If they give me a car that doesn’t bounce off the track in the next few races, then hopefully we can get a better result. But yeah, looking forward to Christmas.

By virtue of F1’s 2014 format and rules change, he was gifted six WDCs because one thing that was certain for all those years was that the winner was going to have a 3-pointed star on his car.

Like Ann Richards said of Dubya, “He was born on third base and thinks he hit a triple.”

Mercedes baffled by Lewis Hamilton’s cryptic radio message – but have Ferrari signed a busted flush?
https://www.telegraph.co.uk/formula-1/2024/11/04/mercedes-lewis-hamilton-radio-cryptic-ferrari/

“...It would be premature, though, to suggest that Ferrari have splashed out upwards of £50 million a year on a busted flush. It was not so long ago Hamilton won a brilliant, emotionally-charged race at Silverstone in front of his home fans, his first grand prix victory for 945 days....”

“...his first grand prix victory for 945 days...”

Show me the driver who was uncompetitive for three years, then miraculously returned to form at age 40.

Go ahead, I dare ya.

Mrs BBB333 and I call Valtteri Bottas ‘The Child Sniffer’ now that he has that horrible haircut.

I will not be missing him.

Thanks, go 47!

[[“If they give me a car that doesn’t bounce off the track in the next few races, then hopefully we can get a better result]]

YEP, its the techs fault, not his for not reporting what the car is doing so it can be adjusted when he pits- nope, just can’t be his fault that he lost- gotta be a “defective car” and “a mechanical crew that hates him so much that they won’t listen to his radio suggestions while he is testing the car”
