Yeah, I'm definitely from the school of Jenson Button. You seem more Alonsp-esque, throwing the car in with more rotation on the wheel then letting the car grip mid corner.
Things I'm taking from your video:
-Degna 1 is flat holy crap.
-Spoon cost me dearly.
If I sort just those two things out, I'm easily on the 1.29.x range.

Yeah, struggling with the feel of the car in to that corner. Can't quite seem to find the balance around there. It feels like a crap shoot if I make it when I'm pushing at the moment haha!
Thanks for the encouraging words. My next set of improvements will be around image quality (using a higher bit rate for capture) and trying to bring in some efficiencies with the edit. I want to be able to make content faster, which will come with experience.
I feel I need to keep working on my commentary. Some sentences seem yo end poorly, or I poorly word things. That will come with experience though and more intimate track knowledge. I suspect it'll be easier when I do the Suzuka hot lap commentary in that respect.
I also want to get my channels branding a bit more on point, including a logo and banner, video transition animation, watermark, and branded on-screen items (ie a "Replay" indicator).
Aware of the camera controls, but that's something to come later.

There's a delayed start to 17:05 local time. That's 35 minutes later than intended. This could be a very interesting one depending on what the very variable weather decides to bring today!
Who will take pole today? Why am I asking, we all know it'll be Max ahahah. Still, the battle for P2 could be interesting, right!?
Who will take pole position in today's qualifying? Will we see a surprise pole sitter? Will we get any running at all? I'm holding out for a competitive session, but I'd put it as 50/50 that it actually runs.

Hey all, Just a quick question to work out what sims we're all using here. Yes, I know they're not all technically sims, and that some of them are simcade, and some are arguably arcade.

There aren't many if us here, but it might be fun to get some friendly competition on the go. Maybe run a sim / track / car combination for a couple of weeks and keep a leader board if we're feeling fancy.
Remember covid, when hikers all went up the mountain to watch qualifying, then the police shut the path on race day? That was fun.

# c/formula1's Rules In addition to Lemmy's [Code of Conduct](https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/code_of_conduct.html), the following rules are in place for [c/formula1](https://lemmy.ml/c/formula1): ## 1. Keep it civil **Posts & Comments** **Reported as:** *Keep it civil* - Keep it civil. We strive to foster a community in which discussions are lively and possibly even heated - especially during contentious races and events - but personal attacks, generalisations, posting of personal information, and similar toxicity will not be tolerated. - Etiquette is important to keep [c/formula1](https://lemmy.ml/c/formula1) an open and welcoming community for everyone. TL;DR is "Be nice". - Don't be abusive. Fair criticism of teams, drivers, broadcasters, and other personalities is allowed, but this is not a place for blind hatred. - Prolonged or excessive attacks on either fellow sub users or F1 personalities will not be tolerated, and nor will wishing harm to drivers. - This includes hoping that drivers will suffer incidents. Motorsport is dangerous, and some things shouldn't be wished on your worst enemy. ## 2. Gatekeeping/provocation **Posts & Comments** **Reported as:** *Gatekeeping/provocation* - [c/formula1](https://lemmy.ml/c/formula1) is an open and welcoming community for everyone. - Any threads initiated as a way to gatekeep the subreddit or vent against other members will be removed and can result in disciplinary action. - Responding to content that violates these rules by retaliating in kind also violates these rules and will subject members to disciplinary action. - Do not comment with the sole purpose of baiting, trolling or inciting reactions from other users. This will lead to disciplinary action. - If there is a problem with another member or with one of the mods, please leave it to private messages. - If you believe you are being targeted by a specific user for harassment it may be advisable to submit a report to the admins as well. If you are unsure about whether this is appropriate, or how to do this, please contact us via direct message and the mods will be happy to help you. - Calls to brigade, troll, vandalise, or rig other communities, open platforms, or contests are strictly forbidden and likely to result in an automatic ban. - Sharing malicious or satirical edits on open platforms like Wikipedia and Google Maps is not permitted. It is irrelevant if the person submitting a post/comment about an edit is the same person responsible for the edit. - Encouraging others to rig F1's Driver of the Day vote (or similar contests) is also considered both trolling and a form of internet vandalism, and will be met with disciplinary action. ## 3. Fan warring/attacking fan groups is not okay **Posts & Comments** **Reported as:** *Fan warring/attacking fan groups is not okay* - In a sport as intense as Formula 1, fans are always welcome to express excitement, but the way a small minority of fans choose to communicate their passion for teams and drivers is problematic. - Comments attacking fanbases are not okay on this community, and will be met with disciplinary action. Don't pejoratively generalise or stereotype groups of fans. Tribalistic behaviour produces nothing but toxic comment threads and bad faith interactions between users. - Equally, don't be a toxic fan warrior. Fair criticism of teams and drivers is permitted at [c/formula1](https://lemmy.ml/c/formula1). If another user goes off the rails into destructive criticism or targets your fan group, use the report button to alert the moderators and enjoy as the aggressor is banned instead of engaging. - Disagreements are okay and it is expected that not everyone will like every team or driver, but there are acceptable ways to express this. - Unacceptable comments would be along the lines of: "The Tifosi are..." "Hamilton fans are such..." "Typical of Dutch fans to..." "These Drive To Survive fans..." ## 4. No racism, sexism, homophobia, stereotyping, prejudice, etc **Posts & Comments** **Reported as:** *Racism, sexism, homophobia, stereotyping, prejudice, etc* - Bigoted and hateful conduct is not tolerated at [c/formula1](https://lemmy.ml/c/formula1). This community is welcoming to everyone, no matter their age, gender, gender identity, sexual preferences, race, or any other defining characteristic. - Racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, xenophobic, ableist, and/or other discriminatory language and sentiment belongs in the dustbin and will result in strong disciplinary action, up to and including a permanent, non-appealable ban for a first offence. - Users who exhibit a bigoted mindset elsewhere on Lemmy and stir up trouble at this sub will receive a permanent ban to safeguard the members of this community - we will not tolerate hateful trolls. - This also includes use of dogwhistling terminology (tropes and clichés associated with bigotry such as "All Lives Matter"), jokes which include such sentiment, defence or justification of bigotry, attacks on anti-bigotry initiatives, and any other form of commentary aligned with these behaviours. - For instance, do not disrespect women/minorities/others by suggesting that Formula 1 has solved all of its systemic issues, or that they are lying about their experiences with racism/sexism/etc (e.g. "Lewis is lying about the existence of racism in F1, because he's successful"). Any such tactless downplaying or denial of said issues is subject to severe disciplinary action. - Comments which generalise or stereotype people on the basis of their nationality (e.g. "she's British, she's bound to support Lewis" or "he's Dutch, obviously biased towards Max") will also be met with immediate bans. Respect people's individualty without engaging in nationalistic prejudice and tribalism. - This rule also applies to teams, drivers, broadcasters, and members of the press. Do not highlight the nationality of personalities involved in F1 as a pejorative. - Whereas we do not tolerate discrimination against populations, please note that criticism of governments responsible for committing major human rights abuses does not, in and of itself, fall under the anti-bigotry rules. Comments reasonably viewed to criticise abusive regimes in favour of pro-human rights sentiments are unlikely to be actioned.
