I wish Alpine would go back to being called Renault. Alpine is such a nothing brand.
Don't care about the name. Just want the 2004 yellow and blue back.

Seeking Clarity on Moderation and Rules
Goal highlights were always an important part of r/soccer. Having them posted within seconds of a goal being scored was great and one of the major reasons to sub.
Figuring out how to get that on here seems like potentially an important thing to discuss? I doubt anyone is going to be copying every single video link from reddit to here on a Saturday afternoon. Don't know if it's possible to find a way to automatically post them here from r/soccer or if Reddit is the actual source point of those streamable.com and dubz.co videos (or if there is another source where they also get posted instantly).
I was looking a few days ago and apparently you can scrape reddit by flair i.e. just scrape the media posts. Not sure if that has been affected by the API changes though. Unfortunately I'm not technical enough to come up with a python script on my own, nor do I wish to keep my PC running 24/7 to scrape for new media posts on reddit and have them automatically posted here. I could try and learn more if anyone else has the capacity to keep it running.
Edit: temporarily trying a 'post goals from Reddit' bot for a few hours. If you end up with 1000 posts on here in a few minutes then you know who to blame.

Thoughts on posting spoilers?
If there's post race penalties, crashes, important overtakes etc. its inevitable that spoilers will be posted with news/videos.
When I can't watch a race live and plan on watching it later I avoid places that discuss formula 1.
Edit: Not to forget, we don't have a mod to enforce any rules at the minute.

Marko provides update on Perez future after latest failure
Reply in thread
I'm still unconvinced by him tbh. He has clearly improved a lot but I'm not sure he's good enough for Red Bull. If he keeps improving then he might get a chance at some point though.
If I had to guess I'd say:
2024: Verstappen and Perez 2025: Verstappen and Tsunoda/Ricciardo/Lawson 2026: Verstappen and Norris (long term)

Marko provides update on Perez future after latest failure
Reply in thread
Perez was sitting stationary for around 8mins (you could argue 10min+ given he didn't box after the red flag). Sargeant for around 7 minutes. I don't think either had any tyre temp and yet Sargeat got out of q1.
Perez was suggesting yesterday that it's the conditions which he doesn't like. 4 of the last 5 quali's have been wet I think.

Bayern Munich claim Harry Kane's 'decision' has been made over summer transfer
So on the same day that Tuchel says we can't discuss Kane, the Bayern president decides to openly talk about...Kane.
Don't think this will help Bayern much tbh.

Can we get a banner and a better community picture?
Slightly backwards situation just now with most of the subs and content coming here but the [email protected] community being organised a bit better.

Not a great sign for Tsunoda either.

Bottas disqualified from Silverstone qualifying – set to start British Grand Prix in P20

It had to be. There was almost nothing left in the car. I get the feeling the FIA wil be testing the car frequently for underfueling now. Looks a bit dodgy for Alfa

Apologies if this is a repeat question. I'm not entirely sure if there is a way to search in Jerboa for similar posts but I don't think there.

Manchester United fined €300,000 by Uefa for financial fair play breaches
Normally I'm quite harsh on these things but there are extenuating circumstances here. UEFA were making changed to FFP during the middle of covid with no knowledge of exactly what the next few years would hold. Expecting clubs to keep up with unexpected changes when they might have front weighted their allowed FFP losses etc. is a challenge.
UEFA aren't perfect with FFP rule breaches but its not like they haven't attempted to ban many large clubs from Europe before.

@FabrizioRomano - Leonardo Bonucci, no longer part of the project at Juventus. Club decision is to exclude Bonucci from the first team. - Out of the squad
Not only Leonardo Bonucci. Juventus also told Weston McKennie that he’s NOT part of the plans.
McKennie will not work together with the first team and won’t travel for the USA pre season tour.

Yeah. I think this is a good solution. It's then up to the user to decide if they want to combine or not.

2023 British Grand Prix Practice Sessions

Yeah, there's clearly potential there.
He's avoided the constant errors that you often see from rookie or 2nd season drivers (Yuki, Mick Schu and de Vries being the recent examples). Think he's only had one (?) major crash this season which was in the wet in Canada.
From what we've seen in F1 so far he deserves a shot in a faster car one day.

lemmy.fmhy.ml now runs on v18.1! (and what it changes for you)
Dont know if its a general lemmy thing but when I upvote a post and then click the post my upvote often disappears. Same when you upvote inside the post and then back out of a post onto the main feed.

F1 considering ‘Grand Slam’ idea for Sprint races in 2024
Reply in thread
One of the biggest issues with the sprints is that many of the potential good formats are automatically off the table. We won't get something fun like reverse grids anytime soon.
At the moment it's all fairly new and constantly changing but at the end of the day it's nothing unique. It's just a shorter race.

Vid bot guy back again...
It might be best to switch it off for a week or so. It's difficult to troubleshoot any bot issues when it seems like lemmy.world and the API are having their own issues every day. I'll try to leave it running in a test community for longer and if it runs fine and then bring it back here.
@[email protected] if its easier for you to make @[email protected] a mod then I should (hopefully) be able to make it sticky/unsticky itself automatically every day for each new highlights post.

It might take a few days to get the goal bot working again btw.
Tried last night but it wasn't posting the links as comments. Unsure if lemmy.world going down had any effect on another issues that came up too.
