This is one of the reasons why F1 is now one of the most uninteresting motorsport on this planet: everything is controlled by computers, the drivers are giant b***hes who complain about everything and basically they are competing against of 0.05 second gaps.
At least in the 1980/90s F1 was properly dangerous and the drivers needed to actually do something to win.
>At least in the 1980/90s F1 was properly dangerous and the drivers needed to actually do something to win. >Modern F1 >not dangerous
I mean quite literally in the race that just happened there was one of the most spectacular crashes of all time
You are right about everything else but the danger factor is still there
Jesus fricking CHRIST that looked mental. To start with it doesnt look too fast but holy frick once he leaves the track you can actually see how much momentum he was carrying
Does someone hit him from the side? It can't only be the curb sausage because all in all, you are supposed to be able to drive on top of those as well.
I cant find the footage on youtube but basically he is alongside a McLaren car and there is a kinda wide gap between them. An Alpha Tauri car that was behind them thinks its a good idea to try to overtake both by going in the gap through the middle of them. He doesnt have the speed to do this so only gets about half way but doesnt back off in time. McLaren pulls accross to defend and is unaware he is there; gets clipped and sent into the side of Zhao (the Alfa Romeo that crashed) which flips Zhao on his roof

Honestly the physics involved in this boggle the mind
As with lots of sports; it takes somebody dying for measures to prevent people dying to be introduced. The Halo was introduced following the death of Jules Bianchi who got essentially beheaded after crashing into a recovery digger that had come out to collect another stricken vehicle in Japan about 6 years ago
I said "essentially". I was just being flippant. If you want be be a fricking autist about it then fine; he severed he fricking spinal nerve clear away from his skull
I remember that. But a halo wouldn't have saved him.
I think there were other reasons. Like some guy in the right position just went "why don't we do X?".

It may have done. Of couse we will never know. A Halo didnt do shit for Anthoine Hubert for example but its still good to have.

Nothing at all. That shit right there is just pure physics; nobody is walking away from that. Cant plan for every occasion. Though the Halo has saved Zhao; Grosjean and Hamilton in recent years so its inclusion is justified.
If you want to "frick around" with "friends" you should play Forza Horizon 5. You sound like you don't want to drive but just "frick around" and as such it makes zero sense to buy a F1 racing game.
It's not fun unless you are interested in the F1. Especially because the cars are all same and the F1 games pretty good but it's for competition, you need to drive by the rules.
If you really want to try it out, get a Game Pass for $1 (I assume you're on PC?) and try out the F1 21. They are all the same anyway because F1 is like FIFA and other sports games.
you should just get 2021 since it's gonna get cheaper
I thought the thumbnail was trackmania at first. You should play that instead OP.
Why do F1 cars look so fricking moronic now.
The FIA are an organisation devoted to being as moronic as possible for 100% of the time

From today's race:
This only happens because the current drivers are so incompetent.
HOLY FRICK

Did he died?

The alpha tauri drove in a blind spot and as a professional driver you are not supposed to do this.

>Poor Chinaman sent spinning on his head by a Bong and a Frog
Its like the Opium Wars all over again...
man, that weird UFO thing looks real dumb but it really did save this dude's life huh
also saved an F2 driver from being decapitated a few hours earlier.
Similar to last year when Vestappen parked his car on top of Lewis. It really has saved a lot of folks.
That gay rollcage literally saved him
I wonder why they didn't introduce it sooner
The rollcage didn't do shit, he would've been fine either way. Halo cucks are the worst.
He wouldnt have been fine. Without the Halo he might have not died but he would have been utterly fricked up for life.

I'm going to find out the video.
Skip to about 1 min in
I thought his head was actually flying off but no luck 🙁
He didn't get beheaded you utter tourist cazzoid.
I said "essentially". I was just being flippant. If you want be be a fricking autist about it then fine; he severed he fricking spinal nerve clear away from his skull
Would be cool to see some autopsy photos.

Small time compared to Grosjean's crash last year.
Halo saved him, he's fine.
You didnt watch today's race did you?
I am actually blind, so no.

I know figured i'd ask since i never tried F1

The F1 games are all dogshit.
