It makes more sense to do a city like Houston or Atlanta.

Albon and Gasly have demonstrated they are good drivers. My point was even good drivers get the boot at cutthroat Redbull.

This is typical of Red Bull. No one should be surprised by this. Hell Kyvatt was ahead of Ricciardo in championship points when they demoted him to Toro Rosso, and then he got replaced again in the middle of the season for Max.

Albon had a short stint at Red Bull, they did Pierre Gasly dirty too.

These are all examples of drivers who showed strong races and have gotten podiums.

Nyck never raced well this year.

No way that will ever happen. Red bull would rather wait to grab a younger star like Leclerc or Norris. This is just a convenient way to put more pressure on Perez.

There's some decent aftermarket infotainment systems with Bluetooth, Android Auto/ Apple Carplay for a few hundred dollars. Some of them come with a microphone for wireless calls.

Why not just connect all the resistors together with one straight trace, and put on trace between that and the cap. They'll save copper and make the board cheaper.

Maybe Film studios should make more effort on lower budget movies instead of reviving old franchises and making commercial movies (Air, Blackberry, Barbie, Mario, etc).

It could be both. Pollen levels are really high this year.

It was also controversial because of

  • A: it replacing a very popular circuit in Wisconsin: Road America. There's a Wisconsin/Chicago rivalry with Bears vs Packers.
  • B: average age of NASCAR fans are older and more republican compared to other racing leagues. Chicago is a no go for some people due to whatever stereotypes that been fed by the Trump Campaign
  • C: It's one of the busiest summer weekends for Chicago. Closing one of the most popular spots for tourists and residents in a city that has 3-4 months of warm weather will tick people off.

Ask residents of Mount Pleasant, WI what they think about Foxconn plant, because this sounds very similar in nature.
