That sound.......

[edit] I like the sound if you have one car driving but the constant screeching when cars are going by......

 

[thenexus6]

This is ... weird..

 

[brotkasten]

What a waste of that fan boost. But the cameras are great.

 

[malyce]

Bruno smfh.


What the fuck happened to him in quali? He was the fastest in quali 2 with 41.3. How did he manage to qualify so poorly... Smh

 

[Zeknurn]

The nose cam is great.


Aww safety car. Why couldn't they just leave Sennas car on the inside after the turn.

 

[Tempy]

First Safety Car - eJay music kicks up!

 

[Kahoona]

No replay of how Senna's wheel came off?

 

[bkw]

I want to go into settings to turn off the music. So weird.

 

[Blablurn]

The DJs should just play the Wipeout soundtrack.

 

[Adam Scott Aukerman]

That fucking D-Jay is going to ruin this series for me, I swear.

In other news, it's fucking amateur hour over here! The driver position graphics are being broadcast outside of TV safe zones, so you can only see the driver's name and not their position.

 

[jaydogg691]

The DJs should just play the Wipeout soundtrack.

Ha! That's what I was thinking. Cant wait till they add speed pads and weapons this FE.

 

[Foshy]

The DJs should just play the Wipeout soundtrack.

I support this idea.

 

[bkw]

Not to mention white text on light blue backgrounds...

 

[thenexus6]

Haha just heard the DJ say "safety car!" while mixing pahah my God.

 

[brotkasten]

The DJs should just play the Wipeout soundtrack.

That's the only reasonable soundtrack for this series.

I also thought the fan boost would be given out in the middle of the race and not before it starts.

Points for the fastest lap and pole position is also interesting.

 

[Pizza Luigi]

What an incredibly boring track.

 

[bkw]

Did it just show Sato with 15% battery remaining?

 

[Tempy]

Corners are TIGHT.

 

[Lach]

That's some surprisingly exiting racing...

 

[Zeknurn]

That last turn is crazy. I bet someone will get pushed into the barrier before the race is over.

 

[Zeknurn]

Did it just show Sato with 15% battery remaining?

Yeah still at 15%. Secret tactics.



Rear wing change on Buemis car. That's a bit different from F1.

 

[thenexus6]

White text on light blue is fail I can barely read the percentages.. Yeah Sato 15% battery how is that possible?

 

[stryke]

I don't know what it is but I can't take it seriously. Commentators said Senna's crash is under investigation and I just chuckled.

 

[Lach]

Sato has run out of battery....

 

[Tempy]

Sato out with battery issue?

 

[Pizza Luigi]

Sato out

 

[brotkasten]

I love the nose cameras.

And Sato probably ran out of battery. Really weird.

 

[Pizza Luigi]

I will keep watching for the ridiculous pitstops

 

[thenexus6]

Why wasn't Sato called into pits to change car? To just run out of battery on the track seems so stupid.

 

[Foshy]

I will keep watching for the ridiculous pitstops

Oh yeah that's gonna be fun too.

I'm enjoying it so far.

 

[brotkasten]

I will keep watching for the ridiculous pitstops

Is it bad that I want to see some of them to trip?

 

[DrM]

Holy hell, they are all together

 

[Lach]

Why wasn't Sato called into pits to change car? To just run out of battery on the track seems so stupid.

I quess the team didn't have any reliable data either...

 

[Foshy]

Hahahaha the pitstops :lol

 

[Blablurn]

this is fun :lol

the music too haha

 

[bkw]

I kinda thought the car swapping would be done outside in some "pit box" instead of inside the garage.

 

[Zeknurn]

That was hilarious. I liked the car that had to hold up everyone else to get the minimum required time

 

[Pizza Luigi]

This does feel like the start of a series in all kinds of weird ways.

 

[brotkasten]

Can you even jump other cars by staying out longer?

 

[Foshy]

This does feel like the start of a series in all kinds of weird ways.

Yup. But I like it. It has some kind of "fun" atmosphere, doesn't feel super serious like F1.

 

[Pizza Luigi]

Yup. But I like it. It has some kind of "fun" atmosphere, doesn't feel super serious like F1.

That's true. I hope coming tracks will be more fun lay-out wise.

 

[brotkasten]

That's true. I hope coming tracks will be more fun lay-out wise.

That's my hope as well. Malaysia is the next race.

 

[Lach]

Yup. But I like it. It has some kind of "fun" atmosphere, doesn't feel super serious like F1.

Absolutely. With GP2 having become paytv exclusive this might become my secondary racing series to follow (after f1)

 

[Pizza Luigi]

Prost showing 3%. I suppose that's the previous car.

 

[Blablurn]

The commentator just mentioned "electro pads" on the street where you reload your battery when you drive over them. Maybe in some years.

Crazy.

Crazy.

Haha that does sound awesome. Especially if they space them out along the track, like mario kart boost squares.....

Crazy.

We're getting closer and closer to real life WipEout.

Have you seen the 2048 intro? That's kinda what all of this reminds me of :lol

 

[bkw]

What's a pit stop time penalty?

 

[Blablurn]

Haha that does sound awesome. Especially if they space them out along the track, like mario kart boost squares.....

Trulli be like

 

[Pizza Luigi]

Abt shows 10%. If that's the previous car he went into the pits too early, I think. Could've maximised more and would be quicker now.
