  • Alpine F1 Team Takes Home Two Points from Spanish Grand Prix After Hard-Fought Contest Alpine F1 Team's Esteban Ocon Scored Tw
    Alpine F1 Team takes home two points from Spanish Grand Prix after hard-fought contest Alpine F1 Team’s Esteban Ocon scored two points from today’s Spanish Grand Prix after finishing in ninth place at the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya with home favourite Fernando Alonso outside the points in seventeenth. On a difficult afternoon in Barcelona, the team planned for a one-stop strategy with both cars, which ultimately proved increasingly challenging towards the latter stages of the race. Esteban managed to hold on to ninth place at the chequered flag with Fernando pitting close to the end as a result of high degradation on his Medium tyres on his second stint. After yesterday’s superb qualifying, Esteban made a clean start from fifth position, but lost two places on the opening lap. Fernando, from tenth, was locked in a wheel-to-wheel battle but held onto his place. In between an early safety car, both drivers remained in seventh and tenth before Fernando pitted on lap 21 for Mediums and Esteban two laps later for the same compound. With others around also pitting, it was a straight, tactical fight to the end. Esteban managed his tyres to the end, falling back to ninth, with Fernando unable to secure points at his home race after struggling on his set of tyres. He pitted on lap 61 for Softs to take him to the chequered flag in seventeenth. The team remains fifth in the Constructors’ Championship. Esteban Ocon, started P5, finished P9 “It was a tough race today. We have a few things to review as we weren’t as fast as the Ferraris or the McLarens in the race.

It is up to the moderator as to whether they would like to announce that the first tossup is a joke or not before it is read. It should be clear that tossup zero is “just for laughs” before the tossup numbered “1” is read however. 0. Description acceptable. Toward the beginning of this work Fernando Alonso scratches his nose ​ ​ approximately five times in rapid succession. During the entirety of this work, two thirds of the audience likewise touches their noses. The first eight words of this work begin u/Alphamaxnova1’s season recap on r/FormulaDank. Walter Koster, the author of this work is also known for works that ask Charles Leclerc to rank his five “not so good races” and one in which he reassures Lewis Hamilton and Nico Rosberg, “Don’t fear, I don’t go through the (*) whole season”. Toward the end of this work, the speaker asks, “Are you too much ​ under effort, under pressure?” This work contains quotes from Sebastian Vettel and Niki Lauda with the latter being quoted as saying, “take a monkey, place him into the cockpit and he is able to drive the car”.

  • Series Omnibus History of F1 – 1900S to 1940S
    History of F1 – Series Omnibus This is Sidepodcast’s mini series – History of F1. The following seven shows were originally released over seven consecutive days, covering the history of the sport from the 1900s all the way up to the present day. This omnibus now gathers all the shows up together in one, for easy listening. Enjoy. History of F1 – 1900s to 1940s Welcome to Sidepodcast’s History of F1. This series will take us back to the beginning of the 20th century, when Formula 1 was all about honour, it was a gentleman’s sport, and it mostly involved getting to the end of the road without falling in a pothole. We’ll travel through time (not literally, of course), to see how Formula 1 became the corporate and money‐orientated sport that it is today. The F1 championship, and all the official records, date back to the 1950s, but the essence of F1 can be traced all the way back to the early 1900s. Back then it involved heavy cars. Drivers would be accompanied by a mechanic because reliability was such a problem, and the track was just a simple road in France. I say simple, but actually, the races were long and tough. The first proper motor race was called the Paris‐Bordeaux because… well, it went from Paris to Bordeaux. It was 1200km, and the winner achieved it in 48 hours. Average speeds were a rocketing 29.9 miles per hour. 1901 saw the first race with Grand Prix in the title, the French Grand Prix, taking place at Le Mans.
