    I have to say and i don’t want to complain too much… but the overspeed this year is just insane.

      Feel like they could do without the overtake mode, seemed like a given Kimi was getting past once he was within a second of Lewis. But that could just be because he was in a Merc.

      true! Imagine if something happens by accident during those overtakes with that type of speed … shit is going to hit the fan real fast

    I think its safe to say, we can confirm the WDC and maybe even the WCC. These new regs are strange, I like what Kimi is doing, but I dont like the whole racing feel, does not feel good for some reason.

      I agree, the way drivers overtake each other with so much more speed looks just way too artificial.

        To say the least … idk, there is more to it, something that i cant put my finger on, but i feel like its even more boring than before, the moment this artificial overtaking are done, and the race gets in to its groove … almost nothing is happening after the first 5-15 laps. Like … nothing.

          It’s very track dependant is all. Austria was just fine and normal racing, it’s just Silverstone is a bit energy starved just like Australia was.

            Austria was not very fun to watch except the few notable exceptions. Other than that was the same thing as i described it. I feel these regs sux a bag of dicks.
