I don't think he made up the illness. It sounds like something similar I have, I can't drive when it happens.
Lol, yea he made it up that his medical condition and doctor doesn't allow him to drive for some time..
Super formula + suzuks is pretty difficult combo for first outings..
Doohan, who drove in F1, was ca 4s down
Vertigo is what chicks fake when they want some time off work lol
Haven't seen proper vertigo then.. 50+ dad had it out of nowhere, couldn't stand or sit properly and took couple weeks to fully recover the balance/stability while walking..
I had it only once as a severe case, other times more lightly, but in the severe case I couldn't do anything. Even standing still felt like I was falling if I moved my head, every object was out of focus, so reading or grabbing things was very difficult. But I have no idea of the scientific names, so I can't judge what Kalle said.
I'm sure vertigo exists. It's just that it's often faked due to the fact that it's impossible to disprove
Maybe the G-forces was to much?
Ben Sulayem re-elected as FIA president. And again we will listen to that imbecil for four years
So what happened at Suzuka and Kalle? Did he do anymore testing?
I think he got banned from driving for the entire week.Quote:

If it's brought on by high G-forces, he can kiss goodbye to a top single seater or sports protoype drive.Quote:

P.S. I'm over 40 and I find it interesting, but it may be considered too long for the members of Generation Z ;)
I didn't think it was too long.Quote:

So it's cropped? In my opinion that should not be accepted!Quote:

Timo Anis himself about the photo:
Quote:
This photograph was taken at this year’s WRC Rally Chile, on the Power Stage finish jump.
I noticed how high the cars were jumping, which allowed me to shape the composition in a very specific way — capturing only the sky, the car, and the flames.
My intention was to keep the frame as clean and minimal as possible, letting only the most important and striking elements define the image.
I positioned myself behind the take-off ramp, waiting for that one precise moment.
New Lancia first gravel test ! ;)

What I mean is it's a differently framed version. Still cool with the flames/fire but if you scroll down the other entrant has the same image - but wider.Quote:

Cool, I only watched extended highlights from prologue and stage 1. Will check that out instead. Thanks
