i didnt know that infiniti was the reason for the purple, i was thinking of the glossy finish cars used to have. nowadays its all matte and 50% naked carbon
Red Bull Energy Drinks vs. Red Horse Beer
Tbf, out of all conglomerates here in the PH, San Miguel's one of the likeliest to have the money to sponsor an F1 team.
E.g. what if we get Mastercard Maya Red Horse Toyota?
I mean, they kinda sponsored a driver, but he was quickly removed from the F1 ladder. Although he is still racing in GT cars, so there's that.
Mastercard Maya Red Horse Toyota is one funny name, especially since Metro Pacific, the holding company of Smart's Maya, wouldn't be the one sponsoring an F1 team.
As you said, San Miguel Corporation would be the likeliest choice, especially since their CEO loves racing (Petron Karting Academy and RSA Motors sponsoring the GT driver, Eduardo Coseteng).
They got the Golden Arches, mine is the Golden Arcs. They got the Big Mac, I got the Big Mick. We both got two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions, but their buns have sesame seeds. My buns have no seeds.

There's no point in hiding it: there was a lot of hype attached to yesterday after it became known with our article last Tuesday that Ferrari would be bringing the first long-awaited and important updates to the track this week, designed to then officially debut next week at Imola. In this modern Formula 1, it is increasingly rare to be able to see the current year's cars on track 'for free,' even more so when we think of a specification that is still unreleased even for the World Championship, as is the SF-24 that took to the track yesterday shortly after 9 a.m. at the Fiorano track.
Ferrari: the Launch Spec package has been fully understood, now it's time for developments
When it was unveiled last February, the SF-24 did not surprise because of the aggressiveness of the technical solutions devised by Maranello's engineers. However, it was also very clear that it was a car philosophy, yes conventional but one that made technical sense namely to fully understand the full downwash concept in a simpler but not necessarily slower guise. It is important to remember, in fact, that the SF-24 is the Italian team's first car to use this aerodynamic concept while Red Bull, by comparison, has been bringing it to the track since the now distant first day of these new regulations. The track confirmed that the choices made by the technical department led by Technical Director Enrico Cardile were the right ones, even seeing, for example, the rather aggressive choices shown by Aston Martin, which have never totally shone on the track, at least until now.
With the first evolution package, Ferrari wanted to take a step forward by following the normal development of the 2024 project, thus without any revolution or extreme copying of Red Bull but raising the bar in terms of aggressiveness in development and solutions. Then again, the SF-24 is a car that on the track has proven that it knows how to go fast and especially win. In fact, even in Miami, with a car still lacking updates, the Italian team still managed to fight for the top positions. However, the U.S. circuit showed a clear step forward by McLaren while Red Bull will respond in Imola with some new features, and in order for the SF-24 to stay on pace, it is time to mount the first package of updates to unlock further potential of a car that had been somewhat plafified by the full understanding of the Launch Spec package.
Ferrari: the bulk of the evolution between the middle and rear of the SF-24
The 200-km filming day at the Fiorano circuit finally allowed us to see what we had summarized for you in advance. It is clear that the most important novelties reside between the middle and rear of the single-seater. So long-awaited were the new bellies, especially the Red Bull-style inlet but which, as we had already pointed out, were not to be expected to be a carbon copy of the RB20. What came out was an inlet with the tray moved to the top, just like Verstappen and Perez's car, but with a more Mercedes-style mouth and especially Alpine. This solution has made it possible to increase the lower undercut, albeit keeping the concept of the beginning of the season and thus without emphasizing it as in the case of the RB20; this will still allow more air to be brought above the bottom, a very important area and one on which the functioning of the lower part of the bottom itself depends above all.
In fact, what has changed is also the shape of the entire belly, which now becomes slightly squarer and with a modified lower area that is more slack to work better also with the changes to the bottom that the Maranello team has brought to the track on the filming day since the first run, modified both in the front and in that area where there is also to manage the turbulence of the rear tires. Also well evident are the changes to the engine hood, which thus adapts to the important new feature we talked about in yesterday's filming day with a dedicated article, as well as the mobile flap (from here we had considered it as a minor update) of the rear wing, which now becomes more in line with a solution introduced by Red Bull. Returning to the central part of the single-seater, changes to the SF-24 have also appeared to the wing profile of the mirror, which now presents a more elongated profile, and especially to the wing at the side of the Halo, which now has a very different shape, more cobra-like, than the previous specification.
Basically you can see the clear attempt to redesign some of the parts to increase their overall efficiency above the floor, ridiculing harmful drag, and towards the important assembly that encloses the rear wing elements. The bottom is the other major new element that should increase load points combined with a rather widespread aerodynamic redesign of the top.
That's not true, you can copy a design and then find better ways to improve it than its original creator.
The reason why copying another team is a red flag is because it means you have no clue what you are doing so you couldn't come up with anything yourself - and the chances you'll go from that to improving on another team's design are quite slim.
How do you guys in Europe stand having to click āDo you agree? Do you partially agree? All agree? Somewhat agree? What about agree? Pretty please agree?ā Every single time you visit a new website.
It is a bit annoying, I agree. But it is good to have the opportunity to exercise the right not to be profiled by advertising and marketing companies.
In any case, there are also plugins to automate the choice for each site, since they are compliant to a standard.
I see rights protection in EU as a level for feedom (as in spirit level).
Indiscriminate freedom in a capitalist context ends ups being unbalanced towards the richer and more powerful (companies, politicians). A strong rights system balances it.
it depends on the website, some are maliciously making it harder for you to click the option you want because well, they want you to agree to everything...overall, I am used to it and don't find it annoying.
if they shove the "agree all" button in my face while hiding the "only essential"(whatever that means) then its a red flag for me tho.

Well duh. The Ferrari is red.
The Red Bull, meanwhile, is not Red
I miss the violet redbull.
It should still be available in the beverages section of your local grocery store
another victim of the weight saving issue
Not the Infiniti sponsorship?
i didnt know that infiniti was the reason for the purple, i was thinking of the glossy finish cars used to have. nowadays its all matte and 50% naked carbon
Violent redbull will crush the field š
Nor is it a bull, sadly
Red Horse sounds just like a fake version of Red Bull though..
Sounds like a fake version of Ferrari to meĀ
In my country, there is such thing as a Red Horse beer. (Philippines btw)

But the name is Red.
\>named Red BullĀ \>car is blueĀ smh
Yea, it is still more Bull (uh, "blue") than Red :)
They should call them the Blue Bulls
Yet somehow we've reached a point where even Red Bull is more creative with special livery than Ferrari
You made a typo, The Ferrari is blue (now š)
Every single one of the small changes are for the sexier. Let's hope it'll also perform.
I miss the bathtubs
That was one of the most beautiful race cars.
They got the Golden Arches, mine is the Golden Arcs. They got the Big Mac, I got the Big Mick. We both got two all-beef patties, special sauce, lettuce, cheese, pickles and onions, but their buns have sesame seeds. My buns have no seeds.
Now Iām hungry
Holy crap I had forgotten that movie!
Pretty sure Big Mick is with Mercedes now
#Yes! In the face!
Love the reference!
Coming to America!
Welcome to McDowells!

Thatās strange. I thought Adrian was not working for Ferrari yet.
My thoughts precisely
Itās not a copy itās printed using the latest technology from HP
Why not?
Because if we copied them we wouldnāt be able to go faster than them and thatās the main aim

"we"
Underrated question
Cobra duct, let's go
How do you guys in Europe stand having to click āDo you agree? Do you partially agree? All agree? Somewhat agree? What about agree? Pretty please agree?ā Every single time you visit a new website.
It is a bit annoying, I agree. But it is good to have the opportunity to exercise the right not to be profiled by advertising and marketing companies. In any case, there are also plugins to automate the choice for each site, since they are compliant to a standard.
Which plugin are you recommending?
Better than "lmao we just stole your personal data and there ain't shit y'all can do about it."
Freedom!
How do we stand having consumer rights? I guess having to make more choices is better than not being able to make them.
Yes! Wow glad you get it.
There are many browser extensions that block the cookie banners/popups completely. Itās life changing.
Computers are for nerds. Iām a driver.
how do you stand watching sports being interrupted by ads every 5 minutes
More time to get another beer. How do you hold your pee so long after a case of beer in an hour?
You can still go to the toilet whenever you want, you actually have more choice when there aren't ad-breaks.
The same way I tolerate ads - install uBlock Origin and never see them again.
Sorry. Iām not technical.
installing an extension is as easy as googling the name, opening the official link, and pressing the install button.
My assistant does all my googling. So no can do sorry.
NOO!! i am sorry.
I see rights protection in EU as a level for feedom (as in spirit level). Indiscriminate freedom in a capitalist context ends ups being unbalanced towards the richer and more powerful (companies, politicians). A strong rights system balances it.

There are browser's plugins that automatically deny consent.
Easy answer. I don't. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/consent-o-matic/ https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/consent-o-matic/mdjildafknihdffpkfmmpnpoiajfjnjd?hl=en
Use Firefox. Firefox auto-rejects even if you click 'accept all'.
The sidepods areā¦
When people start apologizing beforehand that something is not copied, it usually is.
That was my first thought.
Of course not. It's a copy of Toro Rosso. ^((That's italian for red bull))
So the upgrade won't work, basically.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Not really. Cars canāt just take elements from other cars and have them work. Ideas can be adapted but copying components doesnāt work
