    Yeah I think my point was more that it's likely the team around him believing in him and giving him the creative freedom to try things that perhaps others wouldn't. Clearly his proven record helps in that regard. Things have come along a long way in terms of simulation possibilities so to my...

    Right, this might sound like I'm an idiot (I'm sure someone will tell me) but hear me out, how much can one man change a team? I'm not discounting the justifiably high praise from his career so far but with the money and talent that's thrown at F1 teams these days there can't be much 'aero...

    Happy National Tea Day!

    Lolly raised a genuine laugh out of me (or should that be a lol?). Well done.

    Happy National Tea Day!

    Banana was way worse, this is relatively normal by comparison. Up your game if you really want to shock us

    Happy National Tea Day!

    I've got a tin of alphabet spaghetti if you want the m, r and k out of it for the next dunk?

    Race Across The World

    Interesting start. I like the route and having done a good chuck of it before I'm interested to see how and where they go. Very much feels like a race now compared to earlier series. Not surprising as I'm sure everyone's seen at least one series by now. Having said that budget constraints might...

    I take it that Saturday in Vegas is late night again so early Sunday for Europe?

    Yeah fair point, I think I was letting my feeling that Piastri is getting better sway me that they're closer but you're right, the order so far is consistently Norris first. Not a slight on either of them just sensible team orders based on current performance. Piastri I'm sure will have his day.

    Some interesting thoughts, clearly some common ground on the more clear cut pairings but interesting @Mr Jack you'd put McLaren as 'ordinary difference'. I'm inclined to agree with @Jono8 that they're pretty closely matched with Norris just ahead at the moment, though I'd agree with you that I...

    This goes with something my wife and I were discussing before the race this weekend: which teams have the most disparate drivers. I grouped Red Bull, Aston Martin and probably Williams as the three teams with the biggest gulf between drivers. Granted Perez performed better this week so might...

    Epic is giving away big games for the next few weeks again

    Ghostrunner next week looks interesting enough. Remember seeing one or two ads for it at launch but never any more. Curiosity could be enough to tempt me to actually install this one.

    Will physical/big box games have a "revival"?

    I think they already tried to revive it with steelbooks, at least on consoles. No idea how successful that was or wasn't but as the only ones I have are freebies that came with the latest Pokémon games on Switch I imagine they didn't really turn out to be big money makers. As for PC games, the...

    Family dispute incoming

    What makes you think you're entitled to know the outcome? /s ;) Good luck OP.

    Family dispute incoming

    This. While my opinion may differ from OP, the sensible thing to do with an emotional reaction is to stop and remove the emotion from it to have a clear discussion. Might sound pointless but seriously consider writing a letter. Don't send it to your mum but the act of writing it should help you...

    Talk to me about computer desks...

    Hijacking the thread a little to say does anyone have any recommendations other than the Alex drawers? Not a huge fan of them myself but would like to build something sturdy along the same lines.
