Lead in times for carbon fibre elements are really long.
Not bad for a #18 driver.

Honda should hire Adam Curtis
Just a PSA: a lot of you might be familiar with YouTubers aarava and tiametmarduk who specialise in Codemasters F1 videos. Well, turns out they've been effectively stealing videos direct from Gamersyde's E3 coverage and reuploading them on their own accounts, taking a lot of views away from the original source and not even taken them down properly when asked.
It kind of pisses me off that they're getting away with it and I wanted to make sure that you're all aware of it too.

It's like the Honda engine was created by the combination of HP Lovecraft and H.R. Geiger.

Dunno if anyone saw the drivers' press conference but Ricciardo looked like he really wanted to race at Le Mans. And even Vettel.
Lewis of course doesn't care about Le Mans:

Too fucking #blessed for Le Mans.
Sorry, but I just can't imagine a petrolhead not wanting to take part at least once in their life. I can only assume that he's just playing the corporate line for F1 right now.

Yeah, who knows. Britney says he's too focused.
But I love Ricciardo's answer:

And Alonso looks a bit miserable. Can't blame him. Honda double fucking him.

Not sure why but that Lewis quote made me legitimately cringe.
F1 has been trash compared to Le Mans for the past several years.

Heh, if only.
It seems some of the drivers are really interested - Button, Grosjean, even Kimi if Ferrari do a LMP1 programme (LOL) - only Britney and #blessed don't seem to care.
Considering Le Mans is sacred to the FIA so no F1 race can happen during the same weekend, we might see more drivers at Le Mans.
Just hope ACO doesn't go forward with new regulations to slow down the LMP1s.
It's hilarious how long it took the ACO to swallow their pride and move Le Mans to a non-F1 weekend.

Didn't the FIA mandate that a couple of years ago?
Pretty sure Le Mans has first choice over a weekend than any F1 GP.

Which ever way around it was, it shouldn't have taken as long as it did.
Ayrton Senna never really did much with Le Mans, so of course Hamilton wouldn't care about it.

Not everyone has to love Le Mans. I certainly don't. I'd much rather be at a Lydden Hill/Brands Hatch watching some old shitboxes race around.
Solid point.
Another solid point, people like different things. Has Lewis ever been interested in closed wheel racing? He seems to have always been in karts and open wheel cars.

So is Mclaren-Honda the Nissan of F1 or Nissan the Mclaren-Honda of WEC?
So pathetic.
Neither did Schumacher, Lewis seems more concerned in increasing his celebrity status to be honest.

Hey, Nissan got a car to the chequered flag after 24 hours. Honda just broke down on the installation lap in practice.
And Nissan were heavily gimped in Le Mans with no energy recovery system working and the wrong tyres thanks to Michelin and they clearly weren't ready for competition but they decided to race anyway rather than just not show up, so people need to cut them some slack.
Honda, on the other hand, are seven races in and still fucking up...

Were they classified? They were 150+ laps down.
They're both similar in their delusion or arrogance about the challenge in the highest level of motorsport.
Honda takes the crown I agree, but Nissan made a fool of themselves as well.
Good thing that it was Felipe. Fernando would ran him over (due to brake failure)
