He’s solved our depth problems at 8. I feel bad for Nørgaard, but if MLS is better, he’s better. No with Zubimendi getting the rest he needs, we’re so much better equipped for these last few games.

Had he scored it, would’ve got MOTM. He was immense tonight.

To get a clean shave or a precision shave, I go against the grain. If I’m just trimming, I’ll go with the grain.

Starting MLS in midfield ahead of Zubes is a massive call. I actually think MLS can do well, but I fully expected Zubimendi to start this evening.

We got a decent result, but going forward we looked terrible. It’s been the case for weeks, months even, but I hoped we’d turn up today… we didn’t. I will say this though, Madueke looked better. Somehow all our subs came on and made us worse.

I read Steph Curry and thought we were fixing our attack 😭

Why do you have such a hard-on for Google. Go outside, there’s more to life than a vendetta against a corporation that doesn’t know you exist?

Genuinely made me laugh.

The amalgamation of Tim Cook and Tim Allen.

Rome Streetz is an instant listen! Conductor Williams is an instant listen! Both together?!? Super instant listen!

What? As someone who relies on heart rate monitoring for autoregulation in the gym, I can tell you it works and works well. When my heart rate is allowed to drop between sets, I can lift heavier and pursue my progressive overload properly, but when my watch is glitching, my lifts are never up-to-par.

Now, can the technology be improved. Absolutely, let’s start with addressing the racial biases in the optical sensors, but to call it a gimmick is someone with a preconception attempting to spread misinformation. Whether in bad faith or inadvertently, only you know.

It’s like cooking a steak. Yes, most people get it right and don’t poison themselves, but some people have thermometers and make sure their steak is cooked to perfection.

The team are getting back together!

It would be cool if they had to use electric transport to get from race to race. I suspect we’d see a bunch of innovation expeditiously.

It’s a fair point if we were talking about traditional ICE dynamics, but EV racing fundamentally changes the math. As for the engineers, the engineers at F1 are brilliant, but they are building RWD cars because of the FIA rulebook, not pure physics.

Here is why AWD is the optimum configuration for the Gen 4 car:

1. F1 is RWD by regulation, not perfection F1 cars are RWD because Article 9.1 of the F1 Technical Regulations explicitly states: “Cars must be driven by the rear wheels only.” AWD was actually banned in F1 decades ago because it provided too much traction, and the FIA wanted to limit cornering speeds and reduce costs. If F1 engineers were allowed to use active AWD with electric torque vectoring, they absolutely would.

2. The “extra motor” adds 0 kg of weight You mentioned an extra motor adding a bunch of weight. The front powertrain (MGU) is already mandatory in Formula E purely for regenerative braking. It has to be there to achieve the 700kW regen capacity that keeps the battery small and light. Because the physical motor is already sitting on the front axle, turning it on for acceleration adds exactly zero kilograms of weight. It’s free traction.

3. EV Center of Gravity changes weight transfer While weight does shift to the rear under acceleration, an EV’s center of gravity is drastically lower than an ICE car’s because the heavy battery pack is laid flat in the floor. A lower center of gravity significantly reduces longitudinal weight transfer. The front tires still maintain a substantial load under acceleration, meaning there is plenty of physical grip left to exploit.

4. The Traction Circle and Torque Vectoring You are 100% correct that front tires have finite grip that must be shared between cornering (lateral) and acceleration (longitudinal). However, the Gen 4 car uses active torque vectoring. A computer calculates exactly how much lateral grip is being used and only sends torque to the front wheels as the driver unwinds the steering wheel and lateral forces decrease. It perfectly fills the “friction circle” in milliseconds without ever overwhelming the front tires.

Traditional ICE RWD is optimal for the rules of F1, but when you have a front motor already installed for regen and software that can perfectly distribute torque in real-time, AWD is vastly superior for off-the-line and corner-exit acceleration.

I’m the same. I take working out pretty seriously, so I like to see when I’m getting enough sleep for proper recovery or why when I wake up I feel like my legs are proper heavy. The watch has been a great help for me.

But given that it’s better out of the corners than an F1 car, it must have some benefit.
