I have my gripes with f1 race control but Indycar is another level of bad. What the fuck is this?

[Tea @tea_burn_]

FPTP. What a system.

@Tom97___ Agreed on the tyres, don’t know why they’ve made them harder this year. Personally I’d bin the hard and bring 2 compounds a weekend.

[Tea @tea_burn_]

@R0thmansEra Feel like I’m going crazy reading everyone’s comments. Just because F1 drivers have been let get away with late moves before doesn’t mean they weren’t dangerous. Stewards have been too lax on driving standards for years. If Amateur drivers can handle it in multi-class, so can F1.

[Tea @tea_burn_]

Hope Oli isn’t too hurt. People will want to blame the regs, but we were all watching the NLS last week which has similar closing speeds, and that’s with mostly amateur drivers! It’s a driver awareness issue.

[Tea @tea_burn_]

Another great race. 3/3 so far, and that’s with the mercy getting lucky with a SC I. Two of them. Quali is shit obviously but I dunno how you can’t enjoy the races. #JapaneseGP #F1

[Tea @tea_burn_]

@Unpaid1ntern It seems simple enough to me, they just need to adjust the maximum battery rate track by track so it lasts longer. I think getting the teams (particularly Mercedes) to agree to this is the issue.

[Tea @tea_burn_]

I fear we are in ball don’t lie territory. #COYBIG

[Tea @tea_burn_]

Greatest Six Nations ever. I should’ve known not to trust on the English.

[Tea @tea_burn_]

Obviously Ferrari are still Ferrari - not splitting under that VSC was crazy

[Tea @tea_burn_]

Quali needs improving, but I think these regs will be good. Australia is a bit of an odd track, so some of that will fix itself. Don’t think we’ll see 2014 dominance from Mercedes either. #AusGP

What on earth is happening in Murrayfield

[Tea @tea_burn_]

Like this isn’t even a particularly great intro and it’s so clear of the new one.

[CJ !i @CJ_Unparalleled]

What have they done to my beautiful sport? 💔

[Tea @tea_burn_]

Aside from how shit of a match the music is for the vibe, the sky intros are so much worse with CGI than when they used to use real compilations.

The UK desperately needs to get rid of FPTP.

Brian Kerr on the money as per usual.

🗣 "I think UEFA could back the FAI if they were strong enough on it."

Brian Kerr on the Republic of Ireland being drawn in the same group as Israel in the Nations League.

You do not hate the billionaires enough.

[Tea @tea_burn_]

Possession of the ball was contested 6 times yesterday. The broncos got it back 5 of those times. Thats football. You’ve got to live with the bounces.

[Tea @tea_burn_]

A lot of analysis of the Bills’ failure to win a superbowl on the timeline today. They’ve been very very good. But to win a championship you need the ball to bounce your way. It hasn’t yet for the Bills. I don’t think there’s anything more to it than that.

[Football Perspective @fbgchase]

What a dynasty the 2020s Bills have been.

Over the last 6 years, the Buffalo Bills have:

- scored the most points (DAL #2)
- allowed the fewest points (KC #2)
- have the best record (KC #2)
- have a points differential of 902. No other team is over +600.
