Support NeoGAF

[Myoclonic Jerk]

I actually just read a few brief stories on Kimi, his radio chatter and his thoughts on winning that GP and man... I now have a definitive second-favourite driver. Straight down the line, old-school, stoic yet strangely charismatic guy. And a fucking great driver to boot.

I think I now know where MJ is coming from

Welcome to the club

Now you have to wear a gorilla suit

And just for those who missed it, Kimi has few more team-radio gyms

Present from Kimi to everyone at Lotus.

Who runs that shirt shop? Could we convince them to offer a black and gold version too?

You guys all probably know this but the F1 All Stars videogame a la mario kart is also available on steam. I really really like it. Especially with the pitstop feature that is almost mandatory in the race. You guys should try it out.

 

[Shaneus]

I tried the demo. It was woeful

 

[Chris R]

Trying to spread the word about Austin in Phoenix this weekend at the various NASCAR races but so far nobody I've talked to about the race is planning to go. On top of that only 1/4 of them knew that F1 was racing next week in Austin :|

 

[AndyD]

So is there an Austin thread?

Anyone else taking the shuttle to the track instead of parking at the track? We got assigned 15th and trinity, which looks to be close to downtown and has a number of parking decks around it.

Also, weather forecast is mixed, we just may get a wet race or qualifying.

 

[brotkasten]

Austin is next week. No need to put it up before Thursday.

 

[paskowitz]

Rough Draft. I will improve it later. The car could use a little touch up. I am going to see if I can find a better version of his signature and then include it.

I was thinking if we had it early we could discuss meeting up, or at least advice on the city for those new to the place.

Chances are Lotus will start selling them themselves, hence their FB post.

I hate the internet sometimes. Kimi said something funny and one week later it's been milked to hell and I'm sick of it.

Leave the internet alone, it knows what it's doing.

Oops sorry..

I used to hate the internet like you, then I took an ...

ok I'm not even gonna finish it, anyway truth be told it's not even that funny anymore... at least I remember having a good laugh when I heard it first in the race.

You might just be able to get that t-shirt from the official Lotus store.

 

[paskowitz]

Holy hell people are fast. Looks the person on ebay got a better quality source. I just used the original camera picture and Ps. Seems they have the source. Oh well, might as well wait.

Note the lack of a number on the sleeve compared to the original? I'd be holding off on anyone buying/making one unless it covers as many details as possible

Speed has a making of COTA show coming on at 6pm EST.

 

[Chris R]

How would people attending the F1 race next week feel about a Celly group? I've heard great things about it but never used it. Would be a lot easier to do something like that instead of playing phone tag with various people.

Let's all chip in and buy HRT

Good stuff mah ninja. By the way, so where will we Americans be watching the race this weekend? Fox?

I think it's on Speed.

Sounds like a great kickstarter to me.

 

[Xun]

It would be good to see the Austin thread up soon.

We've got to get more into the sport!

 

[dubc35]

After Grosjean and Maldonado's arrival in the USA, the country is pondering its arguments for having a GP again.

Seems about right, lol

 

[NihonTiger90]

Yeah, might be good to get an Austin thread up by mid-week so folks who don't know about it can check it out and be informed about this weekend.

 

[Leunam]

I'll get right on that.

 

[dubc35]

Anyone picked up Jake's book? I've heard it's good but that is only from retweets from Jake himself, lol.

I heard it's average, nothing special but I'll still read it I know that!

There's also a new F1 documentary coming out this weekend. Pretty pumped!


Also, the teams are getting an extra set of hard compound tires for free practice to rubber in the track.

Fangio announced at number 2 in the BBC list meaning Senna is number 1.

Can't say I agree, but there's lots about the list I don't agree with.

Hoping it's one of the failed entries from the last round of F1 newcomers that buys the spot.

Other than Schumacher and Alonso, there's no driver from the past 10 years that should be placed in that list IMO. The ones that are (Vettel and Hamilton) are both WAY too high up in that list as well. Especially Vettel.

 

[Chris R]

In Texas now. Didn't get a good glimpse of the track flying in older couple sitting next to me were also going to the race!

Wont be in Austin until Friday though, it is quite the drive out here to San Antonio doing it 7 more times is going to suck!
