Barretto: Sources suggest Ricciardo would be Red Bull’s favoured driver to replace Perez if required either mid-season or at the end of 2024 campaign,
  • Maybe RB sees something in Daniel that we don't. Let's say he's been given the same car as Max, I doubt that DR would be anywhere near Max's performance.

    Checo is an exceptional defensive driver, proven race winner this season too. Why gamble and replace him with a driver who left them years ago?

  • Help! Someone is impersonating my little sister online.

    My 15 year old sister informed me last night that someone is pretending to be her on Instagram. The impersonator uses her photo as their profile picture and uploaded insta stories and photos of her with penises drawn on her face. This is probably the work of an teenager who dislikes her.

    This person also contacts her friends through messaging service and harrasses them.

    Instagram had declined her request to shut the account down on multiple occasions. I have tried to contact several grey hats online to locate and identify the impersonator but we're finding out that such service isn't cheap at all.

    What should we do in this case? Thanks in advance.

    EDIT: 30/9/23 Thank you for all of your advice and recommendations. We took screenshots and made a report on Netsafe's website They scheduled a phone call with her where she was able to explain what happened.

    The bully account was finally taken down and Netsafe had 100% to do with it. They sent my sister a text message with updates on the case.

    We think we know who the culprit is. They're a group of boys from a school in South Auckland. All of them covers their faces when posting on Instagram, we think we know why.

    Anyways, I've made sure that my sister is keeping herself safe when online especially when it comes to posting photos.

    Thanks again everyone.

    Right wing politics in New Zealand?
  • As others have said, more central leaning. Violence is on the rise with gang activities and rising living cost when compared to yesteryear. Insaying that, I have not witnessed any gang related activities apart from their motorcycle convoys.

    This Wiki article might help.

  • What's a scam that's so normalized that we don't even realize it's a scam anymore?
  • If you invest in the stock market and expect companies to be making large profits all the time then you're going to be very disappointed. That's not how it works. There are financial reports, market regulators, analysts. History tells us that awful companies with shady practices would always get caught in the end, no matter how big they are.

    Everyone should invest, but investors should always do their research.

  • Lawson undecided on second season of Super Formula
  • There's no point for him to stay in Super Formula, regardless whether or not he wins the championship. It's merely a "waiting room" for RB's talent pool and RB is wasting his time if they order him to stay for another season.

  • F1: Charles Leclerc's new contract with a record breaking salary
  • Charles, when given the right car would definitely be a serious contender for the championship. On the other hand, Ferrari has not been in years. Constant poor strategy implementation and reliability issues have repeatedly robbed both Charles and Carlos' from podium finish or even victory.

    It's definitely something that Charles need to seriously consider.

  • Lando Norris; McLaren driver admits leaving team was 'in the back' of his mind before upturn in form
  • He should drive for a competitive team. We don't know if McLaren's recent upgrade would translate to next year's success, hard to say. Given the right car, Lando should be able to challenge RB. Athletes have a tendency to be loyal to their team when to the team, they're always replaceable. Who's to say Oscar isn't going to be McLaren's number 1 driver?

  • What is your deepest desire right now?
  • We don't know what causes their sore back though.

    I used to have years of chronic back pain, sleeping on hard floor did not help. Chiropractor didn't either.

    I had a few sessions of japanese muscle and bone allignment treatment and that healed me. That was nearly 10 years ago now.

  • 2023 Belgian Grand Prix - Race Results
  • Hamilton is a Mercedes driver. I don't see him even considering RB.

    Whether we like it or not, age has a massive effect on driver's performance. Lewis might still have it, Alonso too but the young guns like LEC, NOR, and PIA.. They're hungry for a championship win.

  • 2023 Belgian Grand Prix - Race Results
  • I wonder who from today's grid, when given a Red Bull car is able to give Max a real challenge? Charles? Lando? I think Oscar looks promising. I don't see anyone in RB's current line up being on par with Max.

  • 2023 Hungarian Grand Prix - Qualifying Results
  • Really surprised by the performance of McLaren and Alfa Romeo. Norris himself said that he didn't expect the car to perform better than Silverstone, so whatever recipe the team has been making in the kitchen is obviously working, good on them.

    Lewis, happy to see him to finally score pole position, did I see Angela Cullen back in the garage???

    Max will probably win but I sense that more effort will be required tomorrow. McLaren boys will have great fun. It would be nice to see Oscar score a podium. Alfa duo will probably fall behind as the race progress tomorrow. Perez will have to fight from the back.. again. Ferrari is being Ferrari. Nico though, what a drive. I'd love to see him drive for a better team, AM? AR? Given the right car, I'm sure he'll get a podium. Yuki was visibly unhappy with his performance, thata understandable. I'm sure AT is pleased with their decision in acquiring DR.

    There's a lot to look forward to tomorrow team!
