I love it. Malicious compliance is the best form of protest. To hell with MbS (both of them, actually).

When has fairness ever happened in F1? It is all a factor of who you aligned yourself with.

Pourchaire was in the Sauber academy, Sauber academy is a mess, he pays the price. It has nothing to do with fairness or worth or who won what. How many F2 champions have never even sniffed an F1 seat?

The exodus continues. Behind the smiles and jokes in the press conferences, the atmosphere must be horrendously bad for top, middle, and bottom people be heading for the exits as if the ship is sinking.

Low-key hoping next year is humbling for Horner and Marko. A pity for everyone else that works there, but those two really needs a swift kick in the arse.

There was really no other option, considering more track time for the team's 2025 driver can only help. Just hope he has another good—meaning uneventful—weekend.

The way the graphic is presented, it does look like it is a count of this season only.

VER has almost 100 points scored in Monaco alone in his career and LEC has 100 in Jeddah and Baku added up, for example.

MbS really tried to play with the big boys in F1 and got 100% wrecked. Nothing went the way he wanted and now he has even less power over the series.

Good job, president!

No one can trust Red Bull, obviously, but yes, that is the rumour.

But this is one of those situations where I hope both sides lose (the team's other personnel is the sad collateral damage, which sucks). So if RBR can be in the low midfield next season and then both Horner and Marko get the sack, that would be splendid.

Which is my point. Five out of 19 never made it and this year is looking doubtful (even with all the Audi rumours). Plus, once the driver academies came into being, winning F2 at the wrong time is a problem. Piastri being the clearest example, Alpine screwed up and he only made it to F1 because they are a terribly run team and McL poached him.

And fairness is an irrelevant concept in sports, there is no fairness and there never was. If there was, Jacques Villeneuve would have been kicked out of motorsports once he released his album.

The king of malicious compliance. And one of the best Brooklyn 99 guest stars.

Average of points scored

Last part of the paper:

For stellar models, the remarkably high 𝜉ion is untenable 27,36 under common initial mass functions (IMFs). Since this quantity is directly sensitive to the hottest stars, its extreme value may be ascribed to an extension of the IMF to very massive stars 37,38. The high average ionising-photon energy of a 𝑇 = 105 K blackbody moreover yields a 2× higher ratio of Lyα to LyC photons than standard case-B recombination24, thereby bringing the required 𝜉ion more closely in agreement with the theoretical maximum for such stars 39. Whilst at such high 𝜉ion (and relatively low 𝑓esc, LyC) a UV turnover could be produced by a prominent nebular continuum40, the extremely blue UV continuum (𝛽UV ≲ −2.7) appears incompatible with a 2𝛾- dominated spectrum. One explanation is to invoke an ISM density upwards of 𝑛 ≈ 104 cm−3, as may be expected from the compactness of JADES-GS-z13-1-LA. Considering nebular continuum would be reddened further by the free-bound contribution, however, it may again indicate significant LyC leakage, corroborating the suggestion that JADES-GS-z13-1-LA is located inside an ionised bubble.

One particularly intriguing class of objects predicted to radiate up to 40% of their bolometric luminosity as Lyα are entirely metalfree Population III (Pop III) stars 41–43 thought to reach significantly higher masses and effective temperatures than subsequent metal-4 enriched stellar populations. However, the absolute UV magnitude of JADES-GS-z13-1-LA, 𝑀UV ≈ −18.7 mag, would require a stellar mass of 𝑀∗ ≈ 106 M⊙ as a pure Pop III system, somewhat higher than typical predictions 44. We further note the absence of strong He ii 𝜆 1640 Å emission (Methods) may argue against the Pop III scenario45, although its strength rapidly evolves a few Myr after a star formation burst 42,43. A high LyC escape fraction would also suppress He ii, yet still leaves the UV turnover to be explained.

Whatever the origin of the Lyα emission of JADES-GS-z13-1-LA may be, it reveals the rather extreme character of one of the earliest galaxies known, despite having been found in a modest survey area 16 probing a comoving volume of 50 000 Mpc3 between 𝑧 = 11 and 𝑧 = 15. At just 330 Myr after the Big Bang, JADES-GS-z13-1-LA indicates the profound marks left on the IGM by the first generation of galaxies through the creation of reionised regions. Furthermore, it provides tangible evidence for the Wouthuysen-Field coupling of the spin temperature of neutral hydrogen to that of the gas via the emission of Lyα photons, the global evolution of which is anticipated to be uncovered soon by H i 21 cm experiments 46,47 to provide a complementary view of Cosmic Dawn.

Sadly, no mention of the obvious reason for this: aliens!

167 laps for Bearman (Wet and Inter), 76 laps for Lawson (Inters and slicks before the issue ended his day).

That is what we are getting anyway, like it or not.

I think one of the issues he was adamant about was no 1 year deal. So I would guess he is at least 2 years.

But Audi has a vacant seat...

He would design a car for Satan if Lawrence still paid 30 million, gave him shares, gave him authority over his dept. and some people who tried to run away from him (Fallows CANNOT be happy), allowed him to remain at home, etc.

Lance is no all-time great, but it 100% beats designing cars at Williams for better drivers with a much shittier infrastructure. Or having to move to Italy (which anyone not willing to do is clearly insane, but that's another matter) when he does not want to, having to play office politics at Ferrari, etc.

Should be sorted now. Sorry about that.

They might certainly try to use the same principle against FOM, but I think FOM's analysis is only on the commercial side, so it could be less useful. I have always thought that their best course of action would be using anti-competition arguments, especially because the EU is very strict about it. But maybe they also know that barging in using their lawyers would have long-lasting consequences in a sport where having friends is pretty important.

Thank you, and glad you like it. There is more, yes. About qualy and about many other things. Just trying to gauge interest, as I only recently joined.

I did that in the first go. However, once things started moving about as the gaps went up and down, it became impossible to follow in gif format. I quickly lost whatever I was focusing on, so I thought that knowing where things will be in the next would help with getting the ebb and flow of the gaps.

Yeah, me neither. I knew PER had a good record there, but best of everyone? Unexpected.

Let's see what he can do this weekend. It is a good time for the supposed street track specialist to deliver, with 2 of them coming up.

I love when this kind of thing happens. SAI sets the FL with no purple sectors, VER does the 2nd best with 2 purple sectors.
