That’s all I’ve seen. Still hasn’t been formally hired by Aston Martin. Not sure about gardening leave or if that applies when you move from one country to another.
Ha not a lot of variety in the picks for
top 6-8 finishers. Crazy how quick they all fell into tiers.
I wish I could make it this year. Gonna make it happen within the next couple years. Seems a little more accessible than the F1 race there.
Charles and Oscar both said after the last race that trying to find an extra tenth in Q3 actually hurt their times. Said pushing harder than they had been on previous laps caused the battery to run out earlier and slowed them down.
Looks like the weather will be nice. COTA is a track Marc Marquez loves, can he get Ducati back on top or does the Aprilia dominance continue?
Yeh looks like the investigation into Mercedes is over. They said they didn’t do it on purpose and that it’s actually a problem they are trying to solve so no big deal.

The FIA handling it a little differently than they do plank wear problems.

It’s crazy that they are changing the power regulations allowing them to spend more of the lap pushing, less of the lap clipping to charge the batteries, and the result is a 1 second loss per lap.
Looks like the Mercedes drivers are gonna put up some dry wall before they show up to the race.

Mercedes being accused of gaming the system with how slowly their front wing closes sometimes and how fast other times.

Aprilia introduced an "F-duct" active aerodynamic system on their 2026 MotoGP bike that mimics a 2010 McLaren Formula One trick. The system uses rider-controlled vents—covered by forearms—to disrupt airflow, reducing drag on straights and increasing downforce for corners. Unlike the banned F1 system, it uses no moving parts.



Jorge finished second but behind his teammate. He’s heavily reported to be signing with Yamaha for next season. I doubt Aprilia goes outta their way to support him in a title fight against Bez.

Marc has 7 MotoGP titles, 9 total
Aprilia had been dominant the last 5-6 races. I think they went all in for this year before the major regulation change next season. Bez is likable enough. Jorge Martin is probably regretting destroying his relationship with them right before they figured it out.
MotoGP had a rough start to their big return the Brazil yesterday when a sinkhole opened up on the straight. Hopefully the main race goes a little better for them. Today at 1pm on FS1.

He was shown a lot of respect on the track also, nobody wanted to get in his way.

He asked him how many times he played the rainbow road on his simulator to get ready for this race.

Max talking about how he was just trying to learn the car, they were trying setups out there. They won by a minute.
Seeing a lot more Zelda 2 love in here than I would have expected. That one never really clicked for me. I think I might still have the cartridge, might need to pull it out, blow in it a couple times, smack the old NES a couple times and see if it fires up.
Not sure I believe this but these two have worked together in the past. Maybe Wheatley really wants to get back to the UK. Switzerland doesn’t seem like a bad place to live tho.

A link between worlds is I think the only Zelda game I’ve never played. I would love to play it but I’ve never had a 3ds and don’t want to buy one for one game, even if that one game is a sequel to my favorite game ever.
Rule of thumb is that 10kg adds .3 seconds per lap. Being 6 tenths down per lap is wild.

Alpine is supposedly underweight, giving them the flexibility to balance the car with ballasts. They must not be doing a good job of deploying that Mercedes engine if they are still fighting with the Redbulls.
