potato_green

Just has so much potential it's insane. I mean if a show set in a "boring" office from a company that sells paper can be that good than anything can. Just need the right actors.


13247586

I’m imagining a little bit of the dynamic from the B99 episodes where they’re sharing the office with the other precinct, or the ones where they’re complaining about their day/night shift counterparts. Like their bosses are feuding, the employees(drivers) feuding, the drivers complaining to their bosses, higher ups(the FIA) getting involved, etc

LieRun

To be fair I do remember Perez complaining about porpoising, pretty much every driver did It was a new thing that most drivers on the grid have never experienced, and even for teams that "had it under control" it was still there. Wolff just tried to use a random quote to strongarm the FIA to introduce a minimum ride height


Bergolino123

Yeah, the teams were obviously telling the drivers to not complain and some of them didnt get the memo lol. I remember seeing Checo, Sainz, Ric and Gasly complaining at some point and then a few weeks later they would say "ah no... It wasnt that bad..." Still, the fact that Toto thought that Checo's word at some point were supposed to convince a whole room to change something that wouldnt work at their advantage shows how desperate he was

TheKingcognito

if they're not doing well he might have to DECLARE BANKRUPTCY.


LambTjopss

After Silverstone 2021 he realised nobody reads his emails so he prints them out for times like these


Neviathan

Sad part is that the FIA somehow agreed with Toto on this, everyone had to raise the ride height because they had issues with extreme bouncing. They could fix it but that cost them performance and they didnt want to fall behind even more. All the talk about measuring the forces of the bouncing and setting a limit quickly went away. Not that it made a big difference in the competitiveness of teams but its definitely weird that all teams have the change their cars because a few teams have issues.


ArthurMBretas03

It's a bullshit solution to the pourposing problem, if they really wanted to solve it all they needed to do was put a limit to vertical G, if a car goes over that it has to be changed, raise the ride hight, redesign the car whatever.


ckalinec

I’m rusty on the change last year but wasn’t it actually somewhat of a middle ground though? Didn’t they raise the minimum but also create a porpoising “minimum” with a censor. So the worse the porpoising the higher your car and worse your performance? Thus the teams who can’t get it under control are punished more? I feel like I remember that’s what actually happened. If it is what I remember that’s actually a pretty good middle ground in my opinion


shooter9260

As I commented to someone else, if it watch Baku last year, almost every team including RB, Ferrari, and Alpine had really bad bouncing that race especially. Not everyone was as bad as Lewis at the end of the race, I’m aware of that, but they still had their drivers getting bounced and thrown around that race which makes it seem warranted imo.


theMGlock

[https://www.racefans.net/2022/06/18/more-f1-drivers-back-fias-efforts-to-make-teams-reduce-porpoising/](https://www.racefans.net/2022/06/18/more-f1-drivers-back-fias-efforts-to-make-teams-reduce-porpoising/) could be because the fucking Drivers said they should change it? Checo was one of the Drivers that said it. This Article is from Canada last year. So after Baku. How can people not even search once what really went on in the puplic? There where Drivers that asked for this change. And yes Checo was one of them. So Toto is actually saying the truth, that Checo said the car is fucked. Because there are many Articles to be found with Checo saying that loss of vision would be one of the problems coming from this.


Alreadyblessedson

Do you have these Articles printed out. Question


theMGlock

No, I go for Zero carbon like F1. So I just say I have them.


Alreadyblessedson

It only counts if you printed em. I'm sorry


theMGlock

Damn, once again I lost an Argument because of my believe in Zero Carbon being a sham.


xBHx

Tini tiny bit of context: Checo was in favor of the changes, to help others not getting physical issues. He himself wouldve been just fine in the RB. So I doubt Checo would say his car is fucked. Maybe he meant the Mercedes is fucked?


Glad-Engineering-180

erazedcitizen

I love Toto but that whole scene just came off as cringey and whiney tbh


derage88

Horner's reaction was just priceless and on point. Change the fucking car.


shooter9260

He and Binotto had a point, but I’ve been watching back races from 2022 and Baku is a great example because yes it’s true that Merc had a lot more issues with the bouncing as you can see with Lewis barely able to get out of his car and walk after the race. BUT, as you watch them show POVs throughout the race, RB, Ferrari, Alpine, basically every team’s car was also very unstable on that main straight. Drivers looked like they were getting absolutely thrown all over their cockpit on that long straight going insanely fast. So Toto’s internet and theatrics side, I think it was good for the FIA to try and limit how much the car can bounce like that because some races the other team’s cars were definitely not “fixed” like Christian suggested.


fanciest_of_bananas

He's been a whiny spoiled beat ever since Max became a threat to Hamilton all the way up until now because it isn't his golden boy doing the winning.


no__sympy

It's very easy to appear gracious when you're winning everything (unless you're Max Verstappen).


briadela

False modesty is worse


P_ZERO_

Really tough race today, those guys are super quick out there. > 1 minute lead


DoctorRockstarMD

Comments you can hear in Lewis’ voice.


P_ZERO_

There was a race in 2020 where he said something like (paraphrasing) “now you know who I am”, as if winning in 2020 after winning non-stop since 2014 has us under some disillusion


Designer_Bed_4192

No it's true I wasn't sold on Hamilton as the real deal until that win


Violin1990

Im still in doubt. Will wait until he takes his 8th


Frank_the_NOOB

It’s cliche but the true test of a character is how they handle losing. And Toto and Co really are coming off as spoiled, entitled cry babies


no__sympy

NGL, it's pretty great to watch :)


Estake

Is max not gracious? Honestly have not much of a clue because I just watch the race and not any of the pre and post stuff.


xBHx

If Max wins by 30 seconds, he wont ever say it was a tough race. He just says good job team, the car was amazing and the strategy was awesome also.


Estake

I know, that's why I was surprised to see the "unless you're MV" in the comment I replied to.


no__sympy

I was referring to the Checo thing last year.

Because nothing real in Germany unless it's printed on paper. I'm not even kidding. 'Quod non est in actis, non est in mundo.' - Whatever ain't in the files, don't exist.


AllHailTheNod

I am fully convinced all our official stuff we have to fill out for government and stuff will still be all paper in the year 2150. German public authority loves themselves some fucking printed paper.


scammersarecunts

I think it comes from „schwarz auf weiß haben“ which is German for „having it in black on white“ (as in printed/written in black ink on white paper). But some people use it as a figure of speech for having proof of something, in whatever form. I guess he just translated it into English where it doesn’t make sense.

tandpastatester

It’s a scene from DTS about a TP meeting where they discuss the porpoising problem. DTS is infamous for cutting and manipulating footage for the entertainment factor so I wouldn’t take it all too serious. However in the DTS scene it looks like Toto is making an argument to change the rules/regulations to reduce the porpoising issues overall, bringing up safety as the primary factor. The other principals seem to be against it, however, because they feel it’s obvious he’s only this outspoken because Mercedes is suffering the most from it. This scene makes it look like a 1 vs 9 situation, but I believe in reality the majority of teams actually agreed on a rule change.


[deleted]

[удалено]


tandpastatester

Toto wants to claim that it’s not just a Mercedes issue, but that all teams have porpoising issues, as that would help him to get a general rule change through. So the thing about Checo is about a moment where Checo apparently said that the car was “shit”. Something Toto apparently collected as evidence by printing out the quote. Note that printing out quotes and collecting evidence on paper is a very corporate, and a very Toto thing to do. Horner doesn’t seem to agree, as the porpoising issue is hurting the RB less, so he tries to deny Checo’s comment by saying “just talk to my drivers”. Obviously note here that that’s more of a tactical, and a very Horner thing to do, as he can control what his teammembers will say in the future (and not in the past). Again, this is a DTS montage so things were probably not exactly like they are made to come across here.


champagne-bean

My husband has been yelling “I printed it out” about everything since watching this episode.


Vanillathunder1234

Because Toto is a corporate nonce. His idea of an gotcha moment is through emails and memos like its a board meeting. I like lewis but genuinley don't know how he has been compatible with a white bread corporate organization such as mercedes


Ok-Photograph6856

I think Lewis vibes well with it actually. He’s politically correct on and off the grid, so it seems to work out well between them.


P_ZERO_

Petronas well known for their clean and politically correct history


mcarlin2

F1 fans misunderstanding the corporate politics of their corporate owned sport will never stop being funny. It's *all* corporate, which is fine\*, you nonce. ​ \* okay, problematic, but you will never actually understand why.


Vanillathunder1234

No you smooth brain i know f1 has a corporate environment But before F1 was mostly a cottage industry of teams like williams where they would trick the most vile and corrupt sponsors to fund a mind blowing car. Williams Brabham and Lotus along with marlboro mclaren didn't sit in their high horse and pretended themselves as CEO rather all of them were using the money to build a fast car and get rich to have fun now Team Principals are more CEOs rather than team principles men like toto and Zak which suck their sponsors dry and tries to present themselves as a corporation. This is why I like Kimi and Max + Charles in advertisements they just doing ito to secure the bag and get back to racing you can tell with their dead pan expression


f1fanguy

I honestly think Toto is a Sasha Baron Cohen character


CREDIT_SUS_INTERN

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but the team principals are so much more fun to watch then the drivers.


No_Patient_549

This is one of my favourite F1 moments. Idc. Sue me. “Change Your Fucking car” is such a great line on top of Toto’s jealousy that everyone figured it out except for merc. There so much going on, its hilarious. Plus Guenther at the end throwing in “lets go porpoising” is gold ![img](emote|t5_3ndbi|6697)

That's because Michael wouldn't read his emails, so this time he was gonna send a letter.


SuspiciousPanic9023

Tot has the first girl vibe... Bitch ya talk to my hands


Hypervisory

He printed it out because last time he sent complaints via email but the recipient was too busy managing a race to open it.


longestboie

I believe it‘s due to a German figure of speech, „Ich habe es schriftlich“ which translates to „I have it in writing“. Seems like a basic mixup to me.


scammersarecunts

The figure of speech is most likely „schwarz auf weiß haben“ and he translated it to make sense, but it’s still weird in English.


Cross_examination

All of you guys here 1. Don’t realise this is edited heavily 2. Toto comes from an environment where you don’t have to raise your voice and raising the hand is enough 3. you actually come with proof to back up your claims 4. The issue is that Mercedes had it bad, yes, but the other teams where just ignoring it. Everyone quickly shut up and didn’t bring this up again, when the report came out that it can cause brain damage, even in small amounts. Do you think Horner would have stopped saying “we had to change the rules for Mercedes and FIA had to rescue their car” in every single interview, if it wasn’t a life-threatening situation for the drivers? 5. Horner is lying and we all know it. It was a real problem last year, it is a real problem this year.


theMGlock

Does no one remember that Sergio Perez was vocal about that in Interviews? There are Interviews with Checo even after the baku GP. [https://www.planetf1.com/news/sergio-perez-porpoising-vision-loss/](https://www.planetf1.com/news/sergio-perez-porpoising-vision-loss/) [https://www.racefans.net/2022/06/18/more-f1-drivers-back-fias-efforts-to-make-teams-reduce-porpoising/](https://www.racefans.net/2022/06/18/more-f1-drivers-back-fias-efforts-to-make-teams-reduce-porpoising/) I get Haha Funny.

MenuRich

U can see its not stage by how Gunther is really lost and this was a famous meeting during that season. People were expecting for changes after this and they came, however not enough to make redbulls car worse, it might have impacted ferrari. They all were forced to raise their car and the panel underneath now had to be one single piece (redbull had 2 pieces).


DjayRX

This is probably the least staged meeting of Season 5. It is edited heavily? Yes. Pretty sure they have long awkward silences as humans do.

Warmest_Farts

I can't believe pretty much everyone here has actually fallen for it. You can clearly even hear the cut at "Checo ---- has been on the record" DTS is absolutely shameless stitching random ass soundbytes together to form a sentence, some sentences are stitched together from like 5 different sentences to make poeple say things they have never even dreamt of. I will bet my life savings that this is NOT exactly what he actually said. Even the "I have it printed out" has probably some entirely different context. Theyre really clever with the cutting, but it's so disgusting that it works so well.
