Presumably it's by removing the porpoise from the fuel tank. Don't know why the other teams haven't tried it really.

Engines used in testing don't count to the seasons allocation. Though they would count to the cost cap, so they wouldn't have wanted to be blowing them up.

It's not untrue though. Webber wasn't much of a championship threat to Vettel when they were both driving title winning machinery (maybe 2010 where the top 4 were very close at the end of the season, but certainly not after that). If Lewis had been there chances are Alonso would have been able to take advantage of the pair of them taking points off each other. Who actually believes that Mercedes are struggling? On the face of it they're in bad shape, but this boy has cried wolf many times before...

Ribblehead was singled for weight reasons, but AIUI would now be capable of taking the full load if it were doubled. The traffic doesn't presently justify that though.

Ferrari might be good this year. Or they might not. https://the-race.com/formula-1/gary-anderson-adjusted-f1-test-times-hint-at-ferrari-advantage/

Something about the lighting, track and field of vision makes that look very model-esque.

I don't know, if you have back to back crossovers you have 4 sets of S&C, so doubling your chance of a failure there, and if one does fail then your not really in a better place, depending on which one and the failure mode.

Before the rebuild, the southern platforms at Reading were accessed in the same way. If parallel moves aren't needed it's the most economical way to approach a terminus, if not the most exciting to model.

I could read music on the piano, and never had a problem with the bass stave, but I can only learn guitar music using tab. The thing I can't get my head around from either music staves or tab is rhythm, I can only seem to pick that up by ear/ feel.

There's no magic shortcut around practice. I play (and have played for a long time) guitar, and did piano before that. I've stagnated a bit at being able to play a load of heavy metal riffs, but I've never been any good at soloing. And oddly enough, not practicing much hasn't helped me too improve. I think an hour of scales every day is a bit much though. If you enjoy that kind of thing then go for it, but turning practice into a boring chore isn't going to inspire you; playing stuff you like will be much more inspiring. You do need to do some level of exercises such as the scales, but remember that making music is all about enjoyment. Better to be a bit rubbish and smiling than really good but not really enjoying yourself.

I haven't noticed any links on here, so in case you'd missed it, I've found the coverage on The Race to be really good. https://the-race.com/ Top story right now is an in depth look into why McLaren seem to have less of a porpoise problem than everyone else by Gary Anderson (who designed a load of the old Jordan cars, so he knows what he's talking about). https://the-race.com/formula-1/gary-anderson-is-this-why-mclaren-looks-immune-to-porpoising/ Of course if you know about it then never mind...

Think I like the Alpha Tauri best, but this year they're all pretty good looking.

Lewis went out on C5s at the end too. Don't know if anyone else did. Times from this test mean nothing whatsoever. Even less than usual with the new aero regulations. What's promising is that most teams managed to do a large volume of laps, and nobody was half an hour off the back.

I think there's a bit of nuance to it. Nikita Mazepin is his own person with his own views and behaviours, and it is those that he should be judged on, not the views or actions of his parents or their associates. Of course his position in F1 is entirely down to his father's ability to pay for it, and with the various sanctions that are being applied that might quickly become impossible in any case, and I doubt he'll last long in F1 without the money. But as a person, Nikita Mazepin should be judged on his own actions, not those of others.

Mazepin hasn't come across as terribly likeable yet (though was he ever going to get good press?), but he's an individual in his own right and shouldn't be judged by the actions of his parents or those they associate with. He should be judged by his own words and actions. And if I were him, I'd be saying as little as possible for now and just driving the car.
