Duracell got a reaction from NottsRam77 in World of crypto
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe until recently, in some parts of the world it was possible to walk into a Tesla dealership and buy a car using bitcoin.

Duracell got a reaction from Rev in F1 2021
Sky's commentary is used in world feed commentary, and in other countries, they're accused of pro-Hamilton bias. I really don't think Brundle can be much more complimentary and remain neutral. It's definitely not as pro-Lewis as the days of James Allen but I don't see an agenda from him.
Di Resta, on the other hand, is absolutely a Max fanboy and pretty poor at hiding it. Shame as he's a pretty good pundit for offering driver insight.

Duracell got a reaction from taffyram in Martyn Waghorn - gone to Coventry City
Really glad this story comes with such a helpful visual. It was unclear from the first sentence exactly what was happening but now I can see that Cardiff's plan is for him to leave Derby - hence the big red cross - and make a move to Cardiff, as referenced by the big green arrow, pointing to Cardiff City's badge.
For those of you unsure what would happen next, he'd sign a contract with Cardiff, hence the cartoon image of a contract in the bottom left.

So strange how he's being described as "dividing opinion" when I haven't seen a single real-life person not rate him highly, only kids with a footballer as their avatar.

Is there anyone who embodies that better than Schumacher?* Quiet family man with a love for bunny rabbits. Deliberately drove into Damon Hill to win a Championship.
*Perhaps Max Mosely. Fascist family links, Nazi-themed orgy, autocratic leadership style who also saved tens if not hundreds of thousands of lives by introducing the NCAP safety rating to road cars as well as all the advances in motorsport.

I find all the dark arts stuff in F1 a large part of the appeal of the sport, it's totally a machiavelian world of deciet, duplicity, cheating, contracts, protest - the entire ediface of creating these vehicles and the soap opera around it I find fascinating. Murry Walker described F1 as the ultimate distilation of life, and there's something in that, just you can't expect it all smell pleasent.
I don't like Horner, but i respect his playng of games and it's not as if Toto (or Stroll sr "we're going to sue the FIA because the new regs made our car suck", or Zack Brown or any of the other team bosses are not going to be playing these games) - in fact, i don't think there many genuinly likable people in F1, or they don't behave in likable ways in terms of the sport, might be lovely away from it, but soon as it's business, top bamford mode.
I also think the pro-Verstappen stuff at the moment isn't really anti-Lewis so much as WOW we've actually got a challenge this season.

That's why I always go to the Indy 500 instead. Always a great day out.

Like Lionel Pickering, best owner you could ask for.
Terrible chairman though.

Duracell reacted to angieram in Melvyn Morris fan club
Okay, posts that are critical of Mel Morris' tenure as owner are not taken down.
Posts which contain personal insults of Mel Morris are.
The same applies to other previous or future owners, players, other posters.
How difficult is it to grasp the difference? Quite difficult for some people judging by the number of posts we have taken down in the last twenty four hours.
If in any doubt please re-read the terms and conditions that you agreed to when you joined the message board. If you don't agree with them, you are welcome to find somewhere else to post your personal insults. I hear Twitter aren't too fussy!

Duracell got a reaction from Comrade 86 in Johnny Russell
Fair play to him, seems to be enjoying his life out there. I don't understand why more players don't do it - broaden your horizons, earn cult hero status, earn the same money, learn a new culture without having to worry about a new language, all while being able to walk down the street without being recognised. He's a good egg, deserves it.

Well...
Great weekend. Qualifying was fantastic and the race was a classic.
Hamilton's first mistake in about 3 years but he gets a bit of a luck with the Bottas/Russell crash and then fights through the field superbly at a narrow track, puts in fastest lap and maintains a 1 point lead in the Championship. Verstappen was class, barring that slightly sideways moment at the restart. First corner I think both did what they had to do - Hamilton had to show him that he wouldn't yield a corner without contact, for the psychological edge as much as anything and Verstappen got his elbows out just enough.
Norris was excellent all weekend and as a fan of Danny Ricciardo I'm slightly surprised how far behind he was in performance all weekend (no idea how he out-qualified Norris).
Gutted Russell couldn't get points.
Roll on Portimao.

I bet @Duracell is giving a huge sigh of relief that nobody has linked him to this selfie picture.

The fact that Ferrari took more pole positions and had many more front row lockouts, Red Bull took as many poles as Mercedes in the second half of the season, Ferrari continually lost races from a winning position due to driver/strategy error or reliability, Bottas often struggling in 5th, 6th or 7th on various circuits. By the final races of the season, there was very little to choose between the top 3 but Ferrari and Red Bull definitely had the edge.

Absolutely! The difference is, drivers of Russell's ilk have to wait a bit longer these days. Alonso had one season at Minardi before he joined the big leagues, Schumacher a handful of races for Jordan and the Merc Le Mans team, Raikkonen was in F1 just 2 years after karts.
With improvements in safety and sports science, drivers are hanging around for a lot longer than they used to.
Fingers crossed Russell gets a competitive car sooner rather than later.
