MrJacques Posted October 9, 2020 Posted October 9, 2020 (edited) Why is it called the Eifel GP? Eifelrennen - Wikipedia "The Eifelrennen was an annual motor race, organised by ADAC Automobile Club from 1922 to 2003, held in Germany's Eifel mountain region even before the Nürburgring was built there." What is the F1 Eifel Grand Prix? - F1 - Autosport "While there was no German GP initially on this year's calendar, following Hockenheim's omission for 2020, the Nurburgring's stand-in race has been named after the area the circuit is located in, while also giving a nod to the wider region as the Eifel mountains stretch across Germany, Belgium and Luxembourg."

Pure Savage Posted October 9, 2020 Posted October 9, 2020 FP1 cancelled, boy those F2 drivers must be bleak. I reckon Kimi may give Schumi FP2 as he probably wouldnt mind missing out getting soaked in a slow car. Long Wheel Base 1

WrightJnr Posted October 9, 2020 Posted October 9, 2020 Interesting video on YouTube where Porsche took the 919 LMP1 car when it retired from competition and removed all the LMP1 limitations (engine restrictions, aero, weight) and then ran it at Spa. It broke Hamilton's lap record.I saw that. Was good to watch. But then derestricting one car to race another still restricted is well pointless. Remove all the silly F1 regulations and let’s see just how fast that Merc really is!

The idea was, how fast can we make something go. https://www.thedrive.com/watch-this/18553/watch-a-sim-racer-lap-the-ring-in-400-8-in-virtual-reality WrightJnr 1

Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 Hulk 3.0Shame. I really feel for him. No time in the car at all prior to q3.
Patchelicious Posted October 10, 2020 Posted October 10, 2020 (edited) Ok, well done in VR. Not same same. :-)It’s not the same, but imagine they built it! Simulation gives us an idea of what can be done. Edited October 10, 2020 by Patchelicious WrightJnr 1
WrightJnr Posted October 11, 2020 Posted October 11, 2020 It’s not the same, but imagine they built it! Simulation gives us an idea of what can be done.Agree. Found it quite interesting the VR created a real life state for the driver with regard to sensory response etc. Suggesting the brain interprets the risk as real and not a game.
WrightJnr Posted October 11, 2020 Posted October 11, 2020 LH now equals the great MS on 91 GP victories!! Say what you want about the dominant Mercedes. But that’s 91st time he’s beaten a teammate in an equal car. Well done sir. #respect
MORNE Posted October 11, 2020 Posted October 11, 2020 (edited) I liked how they gave him a merc version of The Baron’s helmet...Those arent worth much☺️ Edited October 11, 2020 by morneS555 WrightJnr 1

We all know it’s not quite the same.It’s a great achievement nonetheless, well done LW. I didn’t see the post race interview, who did Lewis blame for the win?
