"@Sauliloquy1 @missmulrooney That is literally wrong. It assumes a variable which is not included in the expressions 2/3 & 4/6. This is not algebra.

"2/ The lap [--] red flag was not expected but not impossible either. Teams who started on H tires (Hamilton/Merc) were betting against an early red flag plan to 50+ laps on the H and then pit for M/S late and run -10sec against the field using overtaking skill to win. #monacogp"

"6/ It was down to mind games. It's the Prisoner's Dilemma played out on a race track. If Charles could keep the pace of the field low enough to convince everyone they could make it without a stop he'd win. If any contending team decided to push and pit it'd be chaos. #monacogp"

"10/ It required Ferrari and McLaren to use FP1-3 and qali to convince the other teams that they were fast enough to win regardless of strategy so other teams complied with Fer/McL's strategy. Ferrari had to trust McLaren not to jump to the +1 stop. #monacogp"

"@UndercoverIndy You need a high speed buffer and a polishing compound like Meguiar's Ultimate. You will never get the finish you want by hand. If you do get it it will only last a very short time until it's dulled again unless you clear coat it because aluminum oxidizes very quickly"

"@Ray_Devlin @rukky_nate I happen to have a 10yo low-mileage car (78K). It would cost me an additional $29K to replace it with a new one same make/model. At current fuel prices and with my 5k/yr usage it would take about [---] years to get that $29K back. False economy huh"

"@vurnt22 That's a nuanced charitable take Mr. Reid. I tend to think it's what they had in common that caused the public rift: the tendency to lash out. Reiner lashed out with what's at hand: unfounded accusations and Trump with his most common counter: insults. [--] sides same coin"
