Next year Red bull will have the best car IMHO.
Perhaps the Aussie driver will get webber'd again.

My prediction will be Max Verstappen will have his career implode over him being a little shit and him fucking off from F1.

Verstappen:
"If they screw up my race, I'm not going to make it easy for them," he said. "I think they should understand that.
"I'm not going to say: 'come on through'. But all that happened after turn one. If turn one hadn't happened, I wouldn't have been so aggressive and pushed Raikkonen out like that."

Hopefully, RIC WDC pls.
I know in the back of my mind Red Bull will shaft Ricciardo, and allow Verstappen to get away with blocking him ect next year.

I think the Mercedes will still be top dog but Red Bull will leave Ferrari behind completely next year.
>>58585
He'll be Schumacher or Maldonaldo, basically.
>>58586
Yeah he's a hothead. He needs to change his attitude really quickly before he ruins his carreer, or worse, ruin his own or someones life.
>>58587
Say that Red Bull actually will deliver the best car, Ricciardo's WDC is guaranteed if he has his current form. He is the best driver on the grid.
Trying to make the webm's of the incidents but it seems whatever bitrate I point it to the quality stays very low.

I don't think Mercedes can make any more power out of their engine (diminishing returns). Renault has done a fantastic job this year, Riccardo sometimes matches the pace of the Mercedes even though they are down about 35-50BHP. I think with Renault's "re-vitalized" interest in F1, (Also with their factory team) they could commit more funding next year for their engine program. Bringing in Mario Illien has done wonders for them.
Newey has also committed more interest for the 2017 car, as he likes a challenge due to the new aero regs.
2017 could see the pecking order change significantly, we could even see McLaren Honda fighting up there for wins and WDC as well, it is rumored Honda have 4+? different 2017 engine designs running back at their factory, with the removal of the token system, they could really develop at a great pace.

Wish a team did a metallic blue like this rather than a sea of grey and silver like most liveries currently are.

Yep, tokens system is officially out for 2017, unlimited engine development, but they are still restricted to 5 a season per driver I think.

Reactive defending should be banned, then they could abandon the 'only 1 move'-rule as well. Add a clause that says it considers changing direction under braking as reactive defending and you're done.

Whiting hasn't even batted an eye at Vestappens movements under braking. If it was anyone else, I'm sure they would have got a penalty at least once.

After seeing everything time and again while trying to make those webm's, the incident with Kimi at Les Combes should have been a penalty. The Ferrari is past the Red Bull before the braking zone, he is in front and has track position. Basically Verstappen does an overtake attempt in the braking zone, braking way too late and bumping Kimi off the track. This is quite different from the Perez incident because the Red Bull was in front the entire way down and so technically Max has track position and is allowed to take that line and Perez would have to back down. Nonetheless it is disrespectful hotheaded behaviour that is only on the edge because it is legal. The Kemmel straight incident is in the same vein but also extremely dangerous that could have injured both drivers. Mind boggling that none of these were investigated.
I think it is fair to say that the incident at the start is no-one's particular fault. I wouldn't say Max was dive bombing into the corner as he takes his line before he is in the braking zone with his front wheel past Kimi's back wheel. He doesn't lock up and is forced over the kerbs by the Ferrari's. Kimi was stuck in between and there is no fault of his own. Vettel understandably doesn't notice the Red Bull on the inside and challenges his teammate fairly. Still, this would be a move I wouldn't have made because you don't win a race in the first corner, you can only lose it. This is especially true for Spa. You could quote Senna and all that and it would have been so cheeky if he had made it but the gap that does exist in La Source has a survival rate of like 50%.

With those four strong cars behind Rosberg, Mercedes had discussed every conceivable outcome, but much of that went out of the window when 75 percent of the German's main rivals ruled themselves out of contention.
"It all changed after Turn 1," said Lowe. "We've got a chart of what line not to take into Turn 1, and that was exactly the one that Max took!
"Fortunately he managed to take out himself and two Ferraris. It didn't seem to stop, all afternoon they seemed to be tangling with each other as far as I could see…

Crofty probably would and Ted will probably contemplate jumping on the path of a car as it goes past in the pits before mumbling something about moral obligations. Lazenby will start writing an extensive list of excuses. Everyone else will probably survive.
Then as they calm down, Lauda starts blaming lewlew and Crofty starts stuttering real hard trying to throw the blame on dirt entering his helmet or some shit.

there's a checkbox to enable audio, and the filesize limit is blank so it's not totally baked in. the limit doesn't really work but the overall setup is convenient for quickly extracting webms from videos.

The audio is from Crazy Taxi, which is an arcade and console game about picking up passengers that pay extra fare for closely passing other AI cars and dangerous driving in general. However, actually crashing into things has a penalty. I haven't played it in a decade or so but Max's driving reminded me of the gameplay.
