    If it materialises it will all disappear in a defence spending black hole and it won't change anything. Defence contractors and businesses will be rubbing their hands together. "Let's increase our prices!" Still waiting for my FRI - disgruntled techie :cry:

    Come on Logan, do your job. Could use an SC to allow everyone ahead of the pitted Red Bulls to get a cheeky free stop.

    Can't say I'm a fan of the AI generated graphics labels for the cars as they come down the straight, sometimes they work and sometimes they don't. There's a giant timing tower on the left to show you who is where, damn tik tok generation needing extra things to look at. Meh, I'm moaning a lot...

    I love how that the 1st lap wasn't even over yet and the FOM directors aren't even showing Max already as they came to the hairpin at the end of the long straight :cry:

    F1 TV have snapped up Alex, he's very knowledgeable. Nico is perfect for Sky, he asks stupid questions and hunts for controversial comments which they love.

    Sainz probably could have got going a lot quicker from that spin, but easier to stay still and make it a red flag. Then just trundle back and get sorted under red flag with the clock stopped. /cynical :p

    file hosting sites (Yes I know the image isn't from the last Chinese GP :p) Strangely looking forward to this one, a bit more of a sociable time and the fact they haven't raced there in a while.

    Dragonfire on UK warships

    Loved doing LAIRCM fires on C-17s, was basically playing Laser Quest with a giant jet. Sitting on the back of tractor or flat bed and shooting the jets sensors with the test set gun. Only to have one of the 3 turrets on the jet turn around in a flash and shoot the gun right back. Even better...

    Aston Martin are using the Honda engines from 2026, so that's an Alonso and Honda reunion in that year. Imagine if they produce a dog of an engine under the new 2026 rules and Alonso is reintroduced to the GP2 engine. Alonso is calling it "motivating"

    Was discussed on TV and mentioned here about what the teams got up to during the red flag. https://www.autosport.com/f1/news/how-f1-red-flag-helped-verstappen-nail-his-dominant-japanese-gp-win/10596391/ Seems Max and Red Bull used it to increase their advantage even more. Other teams probably...

    Probably a good job Alonso still isn't driving for Alpine, or we'd be hearing worse rants than the 'GP2 Engine'. They are getting passed left right and centre.

    Really hoping this hasn't nulified the rest of the race with all the tweaks and tyre changes that has happened.

    Both RBs had a pretty horrid start and squeezed up and you gotta feel for the Williams team. Other teams have admitted they don't have a spare chassis yet, I think Alpine was one of them. I wonder how many others could be the same but not willing to admit it? Could be an effect of the cost cap...

    O11D EVO XL

    Picked one of these up at the start of the week, along with some RGB fans to go with my AIOs and extra intake fans. I've got it configured in reverse as it's on the left hand side. A bit of tidying up to do and more cable management at the back (The moving 2.5inch drive door thing is hiding a...

    Nope, just dealing with them after they've moved. I guess experiences may vary.

    Same here, got 5 years left and I was messed about big style with a posting last year. So will see what this FRI brings, I'm taking it if it comes as it's free money and a no brainer. Got myself a very decent role now which doesn't even involve a lot of the usual RAF/Military rubbish. Cruise...

    Interesting strategies at play due to this mid race "Break". Herta just trundling along during the first half which is worth nothing. Saving fuel and tyres, other drivers following suit. Why push when not needed? Not been thought through this has it haha.
